First half of Empress Ki was great, then it fell flat for me. This is my favorite sageuk.

Glad it's not just me who thought the trailers and promo gave cringe vibes

I absolutely loved it, not sure why it's getting so much hate. The ending was rushed though

I'm on episode 2, when does the romance start? Seems like mostly family/career-based plot so far

Seems like people really aren't liking this. Not sure if I should start

mdl sucks so bad, a 7.6 rating just because it took so long to get subs, and now it's stuck that way. For anyone who hasn't watched this yet, this is a very good drama. 9/10

Does anyone know when we'll hear about his next project?

He is good at acting and very expressive, but doesn't have the best range.

Have to disagree with you. Not only in no way do I feel the K2 was his best work, but I also believe he especially shines in comedic roles (among others).

It wasn't the concept that was flawed just the writing. And the inclusion of FL drama.

That ending.... hmm. Not sure how I feel about it.
There were a lot of positives about this drama. The vibe was awesome. Actors were spot on.
I think the writing left a lot to be desired. And I wish Eui Jung was not in this.

My thoughts exactly. Tbh you could tell it was a male writer attempting to write romance (or whatever the hell you'd want to call this dysfunctional dragging love square). And failing miserably. This drama was great until episode 8 when the relationship drama became heavy.

I couldn't agree more.

As an avid fan of this drama I found myself skipping through most of Lee Chung Ah's scenes with the ML. Cannot stand forced "other woman" drama and those scenes also felt like filler. Hoping episode 4 is better

Rowoon's character was pretty stiff in the beginning...but it improves a lot in the second half. He is a really good expressive actor, not sure why he took the wooden acting that far in the beginning. An attempt at character development I guess. But I agree overall this drama was a mess.

Writing is not very good. Watch for the action, production and the acting.

What is with these black scene cuts they're starting to leave in dramas? They're in Worst of Evil too except there they were really choppy. I hope this isn't becoming a thing

Wasn't expecting a romcom, just something watchable. The script felt like minimal effort had been put in. Acting was bland and rudimentary. Everything was bland except the cinematography.

She smokes a lot, that was a big part of her character in the webtoon. But you're not missing anything by dropping it.

I'm certainly not saying we haven't had any good dramas since 2016.
