I have seen lots of people raising their concerns about how the drama turned out like this and that, questioning the decision-making of the main leads. I was quite surprised, because I thoroughly enjoyed the whole drama—even the “flaws” which made others raise questions. In my perspective, this series candidly portrayed the reality of flawed people living at the rock bottom of their lives.
The series of mistakes that the main leads have made here are all derived from the lack of family, which is what the drama portrayed. Despite the fact that the backstories are insufficient to justify their actions, making it more difficult to relate with some of the characters’ actions, in my own viewpoint, there are some things that are left for the viewers to think about and interpret—and this is one of them. Or perhaps, the implicit matters (which the viewers see as problems needed to be addressed) were “asked” to be looked past, focusing on the current events and how it would greatly affect the future events for better or for worse. It was surely a move that won’t satisfy some so it’s completely reasonable if they got disappointed, but these were just fine with me.
Culturally speaking, Asians value "family" as a key to a person's stability, or what makes them feel complete and be reassured no matter what the future holds. It is a moral and social norms that knowing or growing up with one's family (with their direct bloodline) means one has the ability to 'grow' and for the roots to remain firm. Family—especially the parents—symbolizes the fertile land that helps a person 'nurture' to its extent, and to keep it rooted and stable.
Even if the norms and mentality had somehow change in the modern era, this way of thinking was still deeply embedded in Asian roots. Therefore, despite assuming that their parents abandoned them, they still clung to the hope of getting to know them. Thus, I find it reasonable why Hae Jo still wants to find his real dad as his last *homework.* I hope this explained some viewers' questions regarding the main leads' pursuit in finding their real parents, especially with Hae Jo's case, even if it may seem "pointless."
I am still on Episode 16, and the main leads' love is still starting to bloom. I don't want all of this to end—yes, I'm still hoping even though I know for a fact that what we desire could often be the opposite of reality—and just want to cherish their cute little moments together. Waaahhh, I'm falling in love with this couple for the second time!
If you want to secure the rating and don’t let haters mass downvote to bring it down don’t forget to rate…
I really appreciate this information! I have already been using MDL for so long, but just found out that the verification is not paid (like many other apps). Thank you!
I love how I have very similar tastes with the authors, especially Xiao Zi! I would gladly look out for those in the list that I have not yet watched. I also love hearing other viewers' opinions with dramas, so thank you for this article!
The ratings seems high, but somehow opposes some opinions. Is it really good or nah...? I want to find another BL aside from ITSAY that would really be worth a watch for me.
What happened to the real kang bitna? The last time we saw her she escaped gremory/arong but what happened after…
Bael or Justitia (?) said there was some mistake in the system as to why she ended up going in Hell when she died (that time when Gremory tried to catch her in Ep1 or Ep2, thinking she was a person who escaped in Hell) instead of Heaven, when she is a good person.
So with what they said, since they knew that the real Bit Na was not supposed to be there, I believe they already fixed the problem and properly sent her to Heaven.
The intense preparation for this drama made me become more fascinated in the storyline, superb acting, high-quality production and everything else that they have to offer! I'm so excited to watch this! <3
I think bael is bipolar he went from kill justitia to youre my sole heir to you will receive painful death if…
He only said that Paimon can kill her IF he can with his powers, I think what he meant by that was he was never strong enough to kill Justita. I understand your confusion at the latter though, but I have not yet fully watched the last episode. 😭 (I might conclude something after I watch the latest episode.)
I love how the ratings get higher and higher. 🤞🏻 It has been so long since I've seen a drama with complex moral conflicts, and I'm loving how the leads' bond was slowly building up! 🫶🏻
One of the things that I'm looking forward to see is a villain (whom she will punish) that is not static, black character. It would be interesting to see a dynamic, gray one! It would surely bring confusion to our Justitia or shake her to reflect. Nonetheless, it was so good so far.
people supporting daon probably have different plot ingrained in their brain cuz...😭😭😭
wdym? he's a realistic character so far in my perspective, 'cuz he is a "human detective" after all. if we put ourselves in his shoes, even if he knew she is a demon, he doesn't understand what it means to be a demon. also, there should be no exception when it comes to punishing criminals (according to morality) - and it is true that bitna would be considered a "criminal" in a human's perspective somehow (if he would be able to provide a proof). understanding or supporting him doesn't make people incomprehensive about the plot. [no hard feelings, just a genuine thought about this ^^]
a 10! Plus, it has Joe Chen. I grew up watching her dramas since Lavender finally had a main role in My MVP Valentine.…
I remember she was the older version of the female lead in one of the most popular Taiwanese movie, Our Times! I was so glad to see her again for a long time. <3
1 year imprisonment and 3.54M won fine seemed to be quite too much for a man who was in his self-destruction phase, when there are people who did worse things to other people yet spent lesser time in prison... I am not siding with him in any way, rather, I have no prejudices against him. I just hope that he would get better and start anew in a different place, like what Ji Soo did.
The only thing I can complain about this drama is the total amount of episodes. Why is this so short? I love all the main leads, and I want to see more of them... 😭
