If you want to know why this is considered arguing instead of a balanced discussion, then I would point out to you what makes it an argument: You took a random sentence from a conversation between myself and someone else from 20 days ago and asked about it. I gave you a link despite that and you went on to copy/paste an entire conversation forum from that post here. A post that is not related to the show we are in the page of. Your post was not even remotely related to my conversation with Ximmich here . The other person expressed worry for the future of this show and I merely tried to console them that losing the director is not necessarily a death-sentence for this show. You are actively trying to engage in a combative argument with the intention to prove the show you love (a show that is, for all intent, not related to this one here) is perfect and faultless and anyone who sees any issues in it must be proven wrong. With or without facts. But really this is a form of spamming this page with unrelated information. Information that people who come to this page might not be interested in seeing and that is why I am not interested in continuing this fruitless line of back and forth. It's also an unprecedented aggression to constantly question the author of that article when they are not even here to defend themselves and it's generally unfair to blame them like this, just because they shared an opinion. That person is not the first to criticize the directing, cinematography, and editing of the Untamed, nor will they be the last. They are just the only person who actually bothered to explain their perspective and I personally appreciate that. Moreover, this is a casual website for casual TV show watchers. None of us here have any delusions of being movie critics and that is not even the function of this website. If you are a very informed and educated person in matters of cinema that is an amazing bonus for you that I am sure will make your watching experience immensely richer. That is great for you but it's not a requirement of this website that people have that information when commenting on shows. Therefore I don't think me or the writer of that post or anyone else really have to defend our opinions here. I personally love The Untamed despite the faults it may or may not have. The sort of conversation you will engage me in, will ultimately lead me to point negative facts about a show I love so I can prove my point and I don't want to do that. I want to love The Untamed as it is but also have the clarity to see that it may have faults. And that's what I think about that.
Yeah, I have some very contradictory feelings towards the show. On one hand, it has elements I love. On the other…
I know what you mean! I honestly like both characters a lot? I get both their perspectives and like them individually but I just don't really enjoy their interactions as much as I enjoy the idea of them together in theory. I don't know, does that make sense? I think when it comes to bickering couple dynamic, a lot of times writers do it for the sake of doing it and not because it makes sense in the situation. Here, a lot of their arguing is pointless despite there being a reasonable cause for disagreements. When they can just say things to each other, they instead say it with quips and barely covered insults. This is what bothers me. It's not even specific to this show. I see it in a lot of stuff all the time. I think challenging each other and insulting each other are totally different things and as you said, a healthy dynamic will include disagreements and arguments for sure. For me personally, that balance is a bit tipped towards straight-up incompatibility here. Some level of argument between them makes total sense given their different world-views. But as two 34 and 35 year old adults who have functioning social lives outside of their interactions, they just come across as childish and intentionally immature. This is something that makes sense in a high school romance or an early twenties one but to be in your thirties and still act like this...it's a bit off-putting for me? I respect those who don't share the same opinion, of course. I'm not trying to undervalue a different interpretation but speaking for myself, I wish they had dialed down on the "arguing for the sake of arguing" aspect a little bit.

Do you think their arguing is related to their trauma? I didn't think of it like that, tbh. I just get headaches when romantic prospects argue like this but I know it's a very popular dynamic in fiction. I mean enemies-to-lovers is not one of the holy trinity of romances for no reason, right?
Du Shik is one fine male lead right? ❤Also that's just them bantering like old couples moreover, that underlying…
Yes, he is a dream of a man, isn't he? I just love a competent man! Yeah, I really don't like the "arguing couple" trope. I know it's very popular and much beloved but it just really stresses me out. It's not specific to this show. i dislike in any form; real life, tv show, or book. But it's alright. I'm used to this type of interaction in literally everything!
Oh yes! When they went to the festival the photos of the DJs were on the wall and chen saw ming then zyx said "now you owe me a secret" confirming that Ming is not a girl because his mere identity is a secret. I'm used to this level of mystery in fiction, tbh so it was enough for me! Lol. Yeah some people prefer to think Ming is a girl... don't know what to say.

"Right" here means, it seems you are very passionately interested in arguing about this and I'm acknowledging your passion but I'm not interested in engaging with it.

I don't think I agree with you, tbh. I just don't think arguing for the sake of arguing is a love-language. It's definitely not one I understand! I think there are plenty of ways to develop two people adjusting to each other's world views and lifestyles while falling in love that doesn't include a constant battle to have the upper hand. For me, this level of disagreement just redacts from the romance. I still like the show though. It definitely has moments when the romance clicks and then moments when it fizzles out. I just wish it had more of those moments when they just work out.
"You know things have gone out of hand when you start hoping for more grandma piggyback rides, sexy times with both female and second male lead, looking forward to watching him being a self-appointed godfather to the kiddos, a helping hand for the others" Yeah, ok, fair! You got me there! I love watching Du Shik interact with everyone. I just think the main leads argue too much. They need to get along a bit more!
I'm so tired of bantering, arguing couples who show their interest through mean quips and constant competition! These types of relationships are so exhausting and counterproductive in real life and they totally mentally and emotionally drain you. That's why I can't enjoy them on screen either. They give me headaches. I just want a quiet love between people who don't feel like they have to win against their partner but lift each other up through support, mutual respect, and genuine affection so they can succeed as a team. Really like your list. I'll add them to my to-watch list.
Oh, how I wish romantic shows would just retire the second male lead trope. He's tired, I'm tired, the dramas are tired. No one needs these pesky third wheels.
It is cute. But boy, it is all k-drama tropes married to all Hallmark tropes. Big city clueless meets heart of…
Yeah, I have some very contradictory feelings towards the show. On one hand, it has elements I love. On the other it's super heavy on cliches that are grinding on my nerves. Like why do the main characters argue so much?! It's stressing me out, tbh. I get very anxious when couples argue all the time. It's not cute at all.

Wait!... Is he the rival for Du shik? Or is he interested in Du shik?! Cause those two have such an easy chemistry,lol.

Though not that subtle? I felt like it was heavily implied.
