yes, the article noted it wasn't the first time such criticism of Chinese culture appearing in South Korean dramas. "Mr. Queen" was attacked for being adapted from a Chinese novel whose author has negative opinions about Korea. "Vincenzo" and "True Beauty" were attacked for featuring product placement of Chinese brands. And perhaps most famously, "Joseon Exorcist" (as we know was canceled and I am truly still very bitter about it) after only two episodes, the remainder not being broadcast, in part because of the appearance of Chinese style furniture in Joseon era Korea.
I typically try to stay away from emotionally wrenching dramas. I don't fancy the heartache that comes with it. But I found myself drawn to the story, and quickly realized that sickness and healing are in every heart and death is in every hand. So rather than avoid the story as one of despair, I decided to view it as one of hope. I'm glad I decided to watch this as it's become one of my favorite currently airing drama.
I am already in love with this drama, both in the bad and the crazy. The bad is gorgeous and the crazy is hot and sexy. But the best part is that it's not just the bad and crazy that are beautiful to watch but the blessing of a badass female police lieutenant. Happiness is a fun drama that creatively makes you live a different reality for a least 60 minutes of your life. I love it!
Who do you think thag lee seol girl is? She gives me some creepy chills ๐ ๐ ๐
I am confused most of the time when watching this drama but I have a feeling Kim Lee Seol and Yoon Jae Hee are in a plot together whatever that may be.
I am glad to see I am not the only one really confused about this drama, watched the first two episodes and I feel like I'm missing a big part of the plot but will stick to it, I really like the cast.
How's the suspense in this drama compare to Train to Busan and Kingdom?
Kingdom is on 10 all the time and so is Train to Busan.. this one is a level 7 or 8 on the scary scale I would say but the story and acting is brilliant.
I can't believe I am saying this but I look forward to this drama especially since I don't deal with backstabbing, scheming friendships not as much the infidelity a husband or wife cheating but more a friendship backstabbing. I can already feel this will be a hectic watch but I love the cast.
