First rule to enjoy Kdrama is to not mind the ratings here in Mydramalist. Don't let the ratings discouraged coz…
Agreed. As a kdrama addict for a long time, I’ve never actually let ratings here in MDL as a measure for me to watch a drama. I would always give it a try first and decide it on my own to continue or not. Some ratings here don’t make sense to me, but I tend to not question it as it is a collective votes and users have right to give ratings on whatever they feel to give.
Back then when I watched this drama in 2011, I really thought this drama was amazing like I was addicted to it and gave it 9/10 rating.
I rewatched this drama for old time’s sake and I thought it’s really boring and cringe 😭 But I won’t change my rating because I loved it then, maybe this drama is just not meant for current days. 😅
Jae On is Deok Su’s real name, not Jun Hwa’s sister. When Deok Su’s dad said “think about Jun Hwa and…
Yup agreed, Deok Su didn’t know it’s Jun Hwa’s dad who was the mastermind but she only wanted revenge towards Mae Hwa because she saw her stabbing her dad. I think Mae Hwa purposely used this murder case for Deok Su’s safety — to be away from Yongcheonru and Jun Hwa’s dad, but she failed to see the bigger picture and only thought Mae Hwa is the villain of her lifestory.
Ahhh Eun Ho is too perfect for a guy and how he increases the bar even higher 😭 now I can’t be realistic with a guy in real life because how would I find a guy like Eun Ho 😭
Personal theory there:From what we got in episode 7, it's very likely Mae Hwa didn't betray Deok Su's father,…
Jae On is Deok Su’s real name, not Jun Hwa’s sister. When Deok Su’s dad said “think about Jun Hwa and Jae On,” he was referring to both of their kids.
I don’t think Jun Hwa’s father is the one who ordered Mae Hwa to tell Ministry of War about Deok Su being a suspect because he was a bit mad that the ceremony was ruined and he said how dare they come to Yongcheonru causing this mess. I think she did that with a calculated move that elementary room members always look out for each other and she knows that the prince will come forward to save her using his influence as royal family, which is why she said to the minister that Deok Su is a small fish to get big fish, which is the prince and what the minister wants. Mae Hwa did that to get Deok Su out from Yongcheonru because she will be in danger if she stays and her identity got exposed. Mae Hwa is using this case to dimiss her from being the clerk.
I’m actually glad that for the first time, she’s being greedy and selfish for putting herself first, but I know it won’t last long. It’s saeguk drama we’re talking about, happy moments don’t last 🥲
Despite the last few episodes going downhill I’m just glad they didn’t make the sisters fight for the guy
THIS. I’m glad they didn’t make the elder sister a bad person just because she’s a stepsister. I’m also glad that they somehow make chairman Hong a normal person, he did make that stupid deal, but at least he seem to genuinely care when Hee Joo got kidnapped.
Why did it get too dramatic??? I lost the interest at 4th episode and still watched it, proved my decision wrong…
I have the same pov as you and I think the whole Argan plot and going away to punish himself because his father hurt her family was plain stupid after all the talk of losing the time being together.
I know kdramas are not realistic and can be dramatic at times, but my suspension of disbelief has come to the max that I couldn’t enjoy that part.
