ziwiy

I saw a kid in the Reuters videos. Is that the main leads' son?

I find it funny because people on Twitter acted like they'd die if this drama didn't air. But now that it's actually airing, I barely see them talking about it. Instead, they're busy criticizing the supposed incest in another drama. Twitter people really aren't representative of actual viewers. Half the time, they just want hit tweets and to shout in their own echo chambers.

I think I missed some scenes. When did she realize that he was the masked man from the past?

Y'all would probably be saying the leads shouldn't end up together if the FL had been the one who got played. She's a grown woman too and she chose to use him. It's okay to call a spade a spade but that doesn't mean we have to insult her. She can learn, grow and have character development and we can still like her without making excuses for everything she does

Overreacting...

Has the backlash reached international audiences too? I thought it was only Weibo users losing their minds over it.

I think they meant the four episodes that have been released so far

I've seen a lot of people saying the leads don't have many scenes together. Most idol drama viewers watch mainly for the leads and their story, so I can understand why the ratings are dropping. I haven't started it yet but I just hope it isn't one of those dramas where the whole plot is dominated by case solving or political arcs.

Watch it only if you watch every idol drama. Otherwise, you can find the same plot in countless short dramas on utube

I thought only the plot was out of a vertical drama but the production looks cheap too because of the overuse of red. Literally everything is red..the costumes, the sets, even everyone's undereyes. It's hard to watch

I know it’s meant to be comedic but Seori’s tendency to overstep boundaries and offer unsolicited advice can be really frustrating at times. Then I remind myself that her behavior makes sense given the life she came from

God bless Segye for finding those behaviors cute, because even he gets irritated by them sometimes

Agree about second couple but I liked the whole drama too

Ok
but u said 7 means average and 8.5 means below average
How does it make sense?

For @E3Fw...I haven’t watched the drama and probably won’t. I came here, read the synopsis, got disappointed and then saw a comment saying exactly what I wanted to say about this overused trope. As for having a favorite actor, I definitely like Song Weilong more than any of the actors in this drama. I was just ranting about how wrong the word pseudo Incest is

But seeing how you remembered me when I post one comment weeks ago and I wasn’t even bashing...I can't be so obsessive with any actor even if I try

Incest means blood relatives and they’re not related by blood. In most Asian families, blood relation is what actually matters. That’s one of the reasons adoption isn’t viewed the same way here as in the West. A lot of the time, it’s more like helping or sponsoring someone because you feel bad for their situation.
That's why calling unrelated people brother, sister, uncle or aunt is completely normal in Asia.

Stop trying to force American standards onto every culture. People already do that enough with beauty standards.

Also, they met as teenagers. They weren’t raised together from childhood as actual siblings or cousins.

Pseudo = false or not actually
Incest = sexual relations between closely blood related family members
So I don't see the problem. You are the one making it weird

same. Rating 8+ means I like it

You rated it 8.5, which isn’t bad at all. You also said you followed the hype. If you start something with very high expectations, it’s almost bound to feel disappointing.

LMAO the whole manhwa is about romanticizing rape. How will thry adapt it

Why would we let you know? So you can start another crying session in the comments? I don’t get why, when there are other dramas more suited to your taste, you still come into a different drama’s comment section just to complain. Go watch Filling for Love where the male lead has a bunch of exes and kissing scenes with other women.

This drama has a high rating and gets a lot of praise, I started it two days ago. But the first episode already threw me off. Then more characters kept getting introduced and with every episode I got more uninterested. It kind of has the same vibes as Hierarchy. No character is likeable
