agree totally. I am pretty tired of age gap rants. Unless it's a minor, I don't see the problem with age gaps in romances or real life. Love is love. Why do others think they can say it's not correct you love each other? It's just weird to me.

wait, did they say how old he was suppose to be? Because he is brother to the emperor, who is clearly an older man as well.

the trailer looks like lots of tragedy.. is there ?

the trailer is above

comedy???

Omg, haha, yep, I see what you mean now.. thanks:)

ah, I see, thanks:)

yes, but over the top doesn't work in this instance imo.. I assumed it meant something like Disney, Netflix... etc... but still not sure why they are called OTT

This is really pretty good for a mini. The acting is well done, in fact better than well done. The direction, costume and set design are all good quality. The story is interesting.

It's called acting, it's a career and a career choice that he made. Why would you judge his career decisions? Also, many people in the world are married and have children and full blown careers at 23 and there are many people who are 50 but still acting like a teenager. It's narrow minded to judge imo.

I just binged the manga yesterday and I loved it so much.. I came here to see if the live action had been made.. I am off to find it, fingers crossed!

yes, well said

I haven't even see it yet, but that's kind of a lame interpretation. imo.. If you lover was dressed in a costume, but you knew it was them, I would say it's something like this. You love the person, not the shell.

she immersed herself for a year.. that's serious, and psychologically difficult.

No she lost a lot of weight for this role.. I think it wasn't needed, as you say, she was already skinny... I think makeup would have been enough to make her look sick but I guess she was reaching for that deeper dedication to her craft like song Ha Yoon .

This felt like a very old fashioned KDrama to me. It was pretty mediocre also imo. The acting was good, but that's honestly the most I can say about it.

yes, I appreciate her character, that's she's not dumb, she's just lacks experience.. and while she has a plan for the greater good of the ML's character, he kept her in the dark repeatedly while trying to decide if he wanted to use her or not.... So I am thrilled he doesn't have control right now, and can suffer a little. He gave the ultimatum at the end, and was surprised to see what she chose.. I had a little inside giggle. :)

I like this drama, and look forward to the episodes. They pack a lot of story into each episode, but it doesn't feel rushed or incoherent at all. It feels like a longer episode. I personally feel that the FL's character , while naive, isn't dumb. When she get's into trouble, it's not because she's an air head, it's based on rational thinking based on the info she had at hand. I don't care for her makeup, but I guess they are tying her to her youth with it. I do like the ML's makeup, I feel it makes him more striking. I really liked the Chief Eunuchs right hand man, he brought some good humor. And I have grown to like the 'princess', she's become more 3 dimensional that many jealous, plotting SFL's.
