I watched it twice, with a year's break, and overall I liked the drama, especially the actors, who were very well-suited to the characters... however, at a certain point, I got tired of the queen's masculine side after Bong Hwan took over her body. For me, his presence and his masculine treatment of a woman's body stopped being funny and started to irritate me, as it lasted practically until the very end... I found this behavior unbalanced, and I missed more storylines towards the end: the king and queen, who, having already realized their mutual love for each other, should have had more scenes together expressing these feelings through closeness, moments of togetherness, even sleeping in the same chamber, spending time together creating new laws, etc. And of course, I missed the scene with the birth of their child!! The director seemed to have forgotten about this and ended the drama without this resolution... which was, unfortunately, very disappointing! I wanted to see the king and queen interact with each other at the birth of their children and see them as a family... However, I'm glad they both survived and had a good ending, because they fought together for a cause, and it's good that the director didn't kill them off... he and she can now reform the kingdom, because the queen, somehow having Bong Hwan's memory left, can change a lot... So Yong, before the soul swap, was raised to be a calm and distinguished potential candidate for queen, distant, submissive, and polite, but after the soul swap, she clearly said at the end, when she returned to her body, that she felt different now, more open and liberated from those earlier patterns and rigidities that imprisoned and held her, and she didn't know she had these defiant traits... so thanks to this transformation, she learned that other character traits were hidden inside her... and that was also cool.
I watched this drama twice with a year break... I liked it, but the version of the queen dominated by this guy from the future dragged on for too long... it practically ended only in the last episode... the queen had those masculine traits for too long for me... at first they were funny, but then they started to irritate me and stopped being funny halfway through... I wanted more romance for the king and queen couple and their scenes together after they were sure they loved each other... however, the queen's character was constantly distanced from the king due to the fact that the queen had a guy inside him who was more attracted to women than men, and that started to irritate me terribly... I was waiting for their scenes together, also when they were together at night and slept in the same room, not separately all the time... it's a shame, I missed that... also the queen didn't give birth because they didn't show it, and I was also angry that they didn't show the storyline about the birth of this girl's child. couples... so much waiting and this plotline was completely omitted at the end, even in the additional special episodes... so unfortunately, I lowered my rating by 2 points because of that... the director was so fixated on gags and comedic elements that he probably forgot to follow up on the important unfinished storylines at the end... but the cast was great and very well chosen, everyone did a great job, so thank you for that... but I was left with regret that I couldn't enjoy the king and queen couple more in love and in a more intimate relationship, and regret that their child wasn't born at the end...
I guess you didn't see the last episode🤷🏻‍♀️ what you say was in the ep23, the final is 24
what difference does it make whether I saw it or not... there is too much wrong between this couple... what's there to fix even in the last episode... throughout all the episodes it was a drama, and at the end there was a sudden turn in the relationship... what sense is this... it's emotional pathology...
You shouldn't have rejected the series right away. Reviews are often completely subjective and will not even match…
To be honest, I've watched dozens of dramas, both Chinese and Korean, and I've read a lot of reviews, and they all matched what I saw and my feelings. However, when I initially tried to form my own opinion, contrary to what I'd read and watched the entire drama, my frustration grew even greater because I knew what it might look like, and yet I was drawn into watching it just to see if what they said in the reviews was true. So now I don't do it anymore, so I don't regret the time I wasted later... even if the actors play their best roles.
I actually don’t understand the people who complain or find the ML annoying and “toxic” in the beginning…
Yes, at the beginning, ML does indeed harbor resentment and hatred towards FL's family, but it is a righteous anger caused by leaving the ML family alone during the attack, and they had an agreement with the FL family to support each other, but unfortunately, the FL family did not help and that is why the father, brother and other members of the ML family were brutally murdered... but Ml, despite his long-hidden resentment and hatred towards FL's family, slowly broke this barrier and thanks to FL's understanding, he gradually fell in love with her, leaving the past aside... and that was the beauty of their relationship, that despite the feuds between the two families in the past, they were both able to overcome these feuds and build their own future...
my rating for this drama is 10+... the best drama of 2025 for me... everything here was well done and refined, the script, the plot, themes, the characters, the beautifully developing romance of two mature FL and ML, beautiful costumes, set design and great actors both in the main and supporting roles. Everyone did a great job... and what's important to me is that I finally got to see a really well-written female lead, FL, who was intelligent, smart, brave, but not shouty, supportive, and not constantly whining and scatterbrained like many FL characters in other dramas. This character is a warm and patient person who understands where ML's hatred for her family comes from, but patiently, step by step, stands by her husband, who slowly begins to trust her and slowly falls in love with her... it was truly beautiful how they both matured into a mutual love, so mature and wise... I would love to see this couple together as FL and ML in another production, but with an equally good script... congratulations to the entire team!!!!! And finally, because I forgot to, I'll add that the best scene for me was when Manman drank too much and ran around with that ridiculous pinwheel, calling her husband so charmingly and playfully, and when ML was so surprised but also charmed by her... a brilliantly conceived scene, a brilliant idea! I really love it! :)
First history played out as it was supposed to. So the only natural recourse was for the family to return to its…
yee... it shows how young people enter the virtual world without reflection, and it's similar to what happened with Harry Potter, that young people confused fiction with reality and climbed a skyscraper to see if they could fly like Harry Potter... it's terrifying how the internet and movies influence the young generation...
It's a pity that this is the case :( because it affects the rating, even with the best cast for me....
