I tried to find a way to write this that was polite but I think the FL has not got any dignity. No self-love or respect for herself. The end was horrible, the ML character has not character development. It is horrific to watch. straight to my list of toxic ML

After joining this site for a while I'm convinced there are people whose only purpose here is to downplay the…
I've noticed this too and I've come to the conclusion that it's sexism. There are some actresses who are obviously weak, but there are some who can't justify so many people criticizing them, and this kdrama is one of them. She's now in a kdrama with Lee Jae wook and guess what, people are criticizing her for no reason.

No, Lily Alice, Eleanor Lee did not "find herself" in this "controversy;" you and other disseminators of fabrications, rumors, and half-truths, PUT her there with loose, fact-light articles like this one. Have some decency, and just stop.

I feel sorry for everyone that knows you Must suck being surrounded by an idiot who doesn't know world history…
Why should some people live their lives a certain way because YOU think God exists? While there is no proof to back it up 🤦 STDs originated became men couldn't keep away from animals. Did you think they magically came with the first gay person?
i would say it depends on the viewer's interperation,personally i 100% think it was strongly hinted as GL others…
The presence of a love confession at the 1:33:15 mark, and a physical display of affection in the form of a kiss on the forehead and lips at the 1:45:56 mark, establishes the unambiguously romantic nature of the relationship between the two female leads
Society downplays the significance of same-sex intimacy. "They are just friends." They presume a level of "more than just platonic" involvement between a woman and a man, and "just a platonic" involvement between two women or two men. This discrepancy reveals the deep-rooted nature of homophobia in human societies
I swear Arthdal has one of the most skillfull written antagonists I've ever seen. You don't necessarily agree with them, but you can understand why they might think the way they do. Sometimes you hate them, other times you want to root for them. And they're hella intriguing to watch. I don't think I've seen a fictional couple like Tagon and Tae'al ha before, two people who fell for each other because they truly admire how much they love themselves and what they're willing to do for their ambitions. They fit like puzzle pieces.
Lucky me, I got to watch all seasons back to back - one of the benefits of being a janie-come-lately to kdrama…
:-D
Strangely Taelha character didn't strike me as 'evil' just a great 'strategist - politician' with a hunger for power and empire making whose vulnerability was always visible .. the cracking of her heart was SO poignant to watch (Tagon's 'betrayal' of trust and her father's passing) .. And the moments of deep empathy that showed up on her face when Tagon fell into the abyss .. she too resonated with his failure to 'avoid the bloodbath' that set in motion the tragic downfall of an "idol" in the making who dreamt of winning hearts but ultimately failed.
The classic Shakepearean Tragic Hero (in the lines of Macbeth and Hamlet with Taelha as Lady Macbeth)
where do people get the nerve to decide for another person, especially their partner?? i loved Gen's character development overall but that was just plain selfish and self serving tbh.
also loved the friendship part. people say it's the strongest foundation for a romantic relationship and these two certainly proved it. it was ultimately their friendship that made them forgive each other when everything's said and done. they just genuinely wanted to be a part of each other's lives no matter where they stand romantically.
AAAANNDD, we got a proper proposal and wedding!!! most GLs skip one or straight up butcher what they have just to end the series so Zense giving some deserving minutes for a proposal and a wedding was such a treat.
Have some decency, and just stop.
10/10
the depiction of the siblings' relationship was perfect, imo. if you have a good relationship with your siblings, you'll definitely relate to it!

emibonnie, you’ll always be famous!
