i remember binging this on a term break. and i came out a zombie afterwards. a word of warning: do not attempt to binge. dont say i didnt warn ya.

i just cant help it. at the end of each eps i just wish they wont end up together. hahahhahahaha. but again i still love this drama sooooo much even of the director or writer will give me heartbreak in the end.

waaahhh! november coming out w/ xukai and wang hedi dramas. whyyyyyu?!?!

wow. looks good. let's be watching thrillers this november w/o the ghouls and zombies.

omgeeee! bailu and wang hedi in a drama?!?! be waiting for this!

i love the location of this drama, the external part of the house especially and bae suzy. her recent projects showcases depth of character and maturity; surprisingly pulling it off with flying colors. the cinematography is also good, with lots of beautiful framing. i love the quality of this drama, despite the unresolved ending. yes, you read it right, unresolved. it's not in the "terrible ending" category.

just read about this festival today. imagine, if only ive known about this at least since yesterday. i could've streamed the movies for free! such coincidence

yeees! i noticed that tooo!

i know its not and that's why i dont watch asian movies that much. because movies are an entirely different form of entertainment from drama. for a 2hr product to be really compelling and worth the money that viewers will spend, it is but necessary for the writers, directors, producers to make it interesting and unforgettable, and movies are also graded according to only what type of viewers can watch it like rated 18 or 13 or G. like if you produce something that should appeal to a certain demographic you have to consider your moral obligation to that demographic right?? because if not, then why bother with grading it. i mean for me thats the logic. and i believe thats the reason why certain kdramas are banned in domestic channels. while in movies, of course kids cant enter cinemas unless they're at a certain age right? and i soooooo looooooove cheesy stuff, im also the conservative viewer, so no wonder certain dramas appeal to me so much while others are actually meh.

that's the first drama i watched with him as lead. he's also very good in comedies right? his 1dollar lawyer is also funny. nway, did you notice that beach scene wherein he was looking into the sunset, camera focused on his face and no dialogue, then he cries, omg, as i watch it, i immmediately empathized on how heavy his heart was. and you'll also be left wondering why you're hurting just as he does hahahahaha. only a few actors can do this to me yk,hahahaha

hahahahaha. well, because it really is! and maybe most users here are asians.(maybe) i basically grew up watching both western (american) and asian dramas. and my oh my the difference. i've watched beverly hills, baywatch, sabrina, clueless, buffy as a kid and in my teens the likes of dawsons creek, charmed, gossip girl, the OC, lost, 24,prison break, walking dead and soooo many others with the exception of the nanny(sitcom) and 7th heaven as the most wholesome of all western ive watched, i could say asian dramas have waaaaayy more conservative themes, and with meteor garden, autumn in my heart, winter sonata, full house as my first asian dramas, you will really see the difference why western dramas are called as such. and basically up until now it is still called western especially if you throw game of thrones in the mix for the modern ones. asian dramas really pale in comparison to western dramas when it comes to sex and dark themes. korean ent. really tried to produce dramas that would cater to global audiences in recent years but it's still a long way. culture still has it to tone down a lil bit of the plots. and i love it that way. i hope it stays that way. if i get bored with the wholesome, at least i still have the option to go west for some spice. hahahaha

i guess i have to be specific. THE kdramas that appeal to domestic koreans.... the kind that aren't banned and are shown in local korean tv channels. the kdramas whose target market is in domestic korea. and those dramas whose storyline won't receive backlash from its domestic viewers. that kind of kdrama. and not those kdramas that were produced for the sole purpose of subscribers' taste and preferences from various OTT with its own set of global viewers.

what can i say...? Namgoong Min never fails. and i mean NEVER. i really thought a costume drama wouldnt suit his persona, but boy i am wrong again. he really is a diamond of an actor and a cut from the rest. and the direction?? it's the perfect tandem for an actor of his caliber. i am utterly surprised how beautiful (and emotionally rocking) that 1st episode was. im so glad i get to watch this drama. i dont care about the ending. i am more of how i journey with this drama till the end. and i caannot wait to watch each episode with anticipation. congratulations cast crew!

holy mowliee. the casting is jaw-dropping! lee do hyun is here too! my goodness. im very curious and intrigued by this drama rn. i hope they get to show this soon

yeeyyy! still coming soon at gateway cinemas here in 🇵🇭!!

hahahahaha. i feel your pain. i can so relate. this type of dramas were of pre-netflix era. they are typically really looooong. i can just imagine how writers spend their days writing for this. 😆 and yes it's a torture to watch certain characters. so in watching dramas, always watch with a mindset of being entertained for a few hours and dont take dramas to heart so you wont end up in a coma. dont say i didnt warn ya. 😆

enjoyable i must say. only because i missed the telenovela/soap opera-like dramas of the 90's, you know, those super loooooong dramas that keeps you watching in its timeslot because of the never-ending conflict of every episode? yep. this is that kind of drama. every episode just gives--- gives you a headache, because of the infinite # of conflict this family encounters everytime. 😆 i missed this type of dramas wherein i have to wait 12 episodes for the first smack kiss scene and then another 10 episodes more for another sweet scene. dramas nowadays are full of superficial love story plots and overly sexual scenes in the 1st episode. i missed the excitement of romance build-up. thats why watching this was enjoyable despite the teeth-gritting character flaws of each character. will be watching more dramas pre- netflix era after this.

For a Hollywood cgi from 7years ago. It was unbelievable Hahaha. They even released an explanation about it. 🤣 Anyway, for me Snow eagle Lord's CG is understandable. They can get away w/mistakes because xu kai visuals makes up for it. 🤣

I think, we fans, have to do the hard work now, to promote it. It's sad. Let's post in our social media snippets of that kiss scene. Let's goooooooo!

Yeah. My initial reaction was, oh they're playing house already on ep12, 😆 that was a cute scene.
