I don't usually watch Republican-era dramas or non-Wuxia, fantasy mystery dramas, but I had been looking forward to this one ever since filming began because of Ding Yuxi. However, his character died, and I'm still hoping he'll somehow be resurrected later in the story. 😭
I'm only on Episode 2, but finally—a drama that hasn't disappointed me! Ahh, I'm really getting into this one. The way the story is progressing feels so smooth, and the overall execution is looking really good so far.
I had high hopes for this drama, but it turned out to be incredibly boring. After the first day, I found myself fast-forwarding through most of the episodes.
We have some good-looking men here, but what really stands out is how compelling every character is. Everyone has hidden motives, and there doesn’t seem to be a truly “good” person among them.
A novel of nearly four hundred chapters condensed into just twenty-four 45-minute episodes? That hardly seems fair at all. At times, it feels as if the drama is merely rushing through the story, with the episodes functioning more like recaps than a fully developed adaptation.
What about it makes you angry? Lol genuinely curious
An army is made up of people who must be prepared for war at any time. If soldiers spent their days obsessing over food the way they do in this drama, it's a miracle South Korea is ranked among the world's strongest militaries.
I understand that it's a comedy, but there comes a point where the exaggeration becomes ridiculous. Sometimes it feels as if the entire army exists only to eat rather than to defend the country.

Yes, the drama is supposed to be about the legend of the kitchen soldier and food. But that doesn't mean the writers had to turn every other soldier and officer into an idiot. The food scenes are easily the strongest part of the drama. Comedy doesn't require everyone else to be brainless; smart characters can be funny too.
If I had never watched a military drama before, I would honestly think the South Korean army is made up of starving slaves whose only purpose is to eat.
