I have no expectations. I didn't get in on the hype, so I am unlikely to be disappointed. Is this show worth the watch? I've been seeing a lot of negative comments, but is that just a case of hopes for something better being dashed?
I just finished episode 7 and I must say I don't get all the complaints about Rowoon's acting. I find it natural…
I don't have anything to complain about with him per se, it's just... Park Eun Bin is so awesome. She eclipses his acting completely (In my opinion)...
is it good? I usually watch chinese drama so I have really high expectations
It is! Park Eun Bin is a very very good actress. She is perfect in this role, and so convincing. The story does not rely on needless misunderstandings to create drama. The way all the characters interact feels pretty natural. Provided you're not looking for too much realism (there's no way this scenario would actually happen) it's really easy to get drawn into. And the romance is so pure. It's also a bit slow, but well, if you usually watch cdramas, I imagine you're used to that.
I completely skipped the scenes with Indonesia. Se Yoon went to a game overseas and had a hard time, the end. They added nothing to the story. It was disappointing, as while I'm not Indonesian, I have connections to that country. I will compartmentalize this feeling and continue watching, as I'm way too invested in the characters. I hope that the writers learn from this, because if it happens again, I will certainly not be this forgiving.
My favourite drama from last year. I finally watched the last episode last night.
So glad it's getting a second season, as I remember thinking this is the kind of drama that could have one. I just wanna spend more time with these characters.
Heh. I've dropped half the dramas I've started, and finished less than a quarter...
I have this awful habit of not watching the final episodes of anything. Sometimes it's because I don't want it to end, but usually it's because a)I've realised I hate the direction the story is going in and the ending would ruin what I liked about the start 2) the last plotline that was keeping me engaged has been resolved and the rest is useless drama or 3) I simply forgot to finish it, and later decided that I probably never will.
And yet, there've been a few dramas that I was so bored by and disengaged with, but still finished for unknown reasons.
Then there are great drama, such as My Mister and Prison Playbook (which are right up my alley) ... that I never seem to watch more than the first few episodes of, because I feel like I need to pay them attention. When I really should just enjoy them, for some reason never manage to bridge that gap.
I'm also addicted to finding new things to watch. Maybe I secretly love endlessly scrolling, reading synopsises, and thinking about whatever undiscovered story is out there?
I feel no guilt about dropping things. Sure, people worked hard creating these dramas, but my time is precious too, and I should use it how I want.

I don't think the king was directly involved in the framing of the bodyguard's father.

I highly recommend giving this a try.
I'm sure Kocowa is great, but almost every drama they have is not licensed by viki, or other sites, for my country. It is so frustrating.

I'd say, give it another hour. But idk, could be different in your country.
