I feel unfair when some people attack JungSomin for her romantic comedy roles. I watched "Love Next Door"…
Because her rom-coms are usually bad and full of annoying tropes, she picks terrible scripts.
there are a tone of other dramas that tend to stay away from these tropes, and they do very well with the audience, unfortunately she isn't in any of those, both love next door and would you marry me have the annoying ex trope.
Don’t expect anything deep.... it’s just a light, kinda silly romance. I feel like instead of that uncle plot…
how can you say it's a light silly romance, when you're mentioning so many annoying tropes? these annoyances are completely against a "light, silly" drama.
I definitely thought this was gonna be a pretty easy and fun watch but they just filled the time up with too many…
Yep! same thing happened with Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, the romance and comedy got lost in the cliché, and overdone palace plots that everyone could see from a mile away.
The two main flaws that bothered me were the team cooking battle plot and the ending. That battle was just so…
yeah, the cooking battle took way too long and in the end it was meaningless, FL's whole time-travel didn't really affect any of the plot either, she didn't really do anything, she was just there for the ride and to take a husband for her back to the future, that's it.
there's really a point to which romcoms can just get away wuth being extremely mediocre. other romcoms which have…
The stupid ex that refuses to go away trope is for me a significant clue that the writer ran out of ideas, and she's just trying to pad the run-time as much as possible, which makes me not bother with the drama. thankfully there are a lot of dramas that don't suffer from this trope.
Was really looking forward to seeing this drama and was waiting for it to finish, but from the comments I can see that it has the annoying ex, and that's a stupid trope that I will never bother watching, guess this gets the "Not Interested" status, what a bummer😡
Had to drop it at 13, I just couldn't take it anymore, it's so boring, and the episodes are quite short but again, it's so boring that it feels like it's taking forever.
What on earth happened? First episode was fire and it went downhill from there. The cooking competition especially…
yeah! the past and present dynamic at the beginning between ML and FL was really funny, but then FL turned to any other palace member with zero personality of her own and just someone who's a good cook.
people have been hyping it up cuz of clips they see on insta/tiktok.
I didn't quite understand why the queen (his mom) was killed. I guessed it was because she stood in the way of…
from what I found, out, she was apparently disruptive and was spreading rumors about other consorts, she also scratched the king's face in a fit of rage.
They're good actors and the chemistry is fire, they really delivered. But the storyline overall is 👎🏽 and…
Yeah, he's a "tyrant" but has no backbone whatsoever, his love and favorite cook has been falsely arrested, and he goes to "investigate", what kind of a "tyrant" goes and investigates a crime and searches for evidence?
he gets insulted over and over by his subjects, and the "tyrant" king does nothing.
his uncle almost fucked up the whole nation, and the "tyrant" king does nothing.
and you could say that FL changed him and like ML's mom wanted, he was trying to be a "sage" king, but that argument doesn't hold water cuz he fell for FL super late, and he didn't know about the mom last moment stuff until super late and in the end he fucked off to the future without doing anything new or making up for his "tyrannical" ways. so in the history books he still is a "tyrant" king.
Theres a few comments not too happy with the show. Ill probably skip this then lol :)
It's not really a must-watch, the story has way too many holes and the cooking parts are filmed excellently and are sometimes fun, but they get boring quick, romance is lackluster and after episode 4 it forgets that this is a comedy too, the ending is terrible as far as explanation goes, so I can only recommend this if you have absolutely nothing else to watch and have already seen every drama in existence.
Well I've seen him in two dramas; Head over heels and Once upon a small town and in both roles he was a bland and poker-faced the whole time, I got zero emotions from him, even when he was supposed to be mad, he failed to convey that to me.
Started watching this drama because it was fun. And then I read about the history and now I despise writers for…
this never made sense to me, I don't know if it's a law or something, but I don't get why these writers won't just invent some made-up king for the purpose of their story, it's fiction anyway so who cares?

he was the weak point of both dramas.
