so im either slow or i missed it but why dont ji bozai think ming yi is a guy? like why isnt he questioning if…
However other people in these scenes ought to be cracking jokes bec they dont know what he does, but somehow that opportunity gets lost...the censors are no fun.
To be moved by the personal development of ambiguous characters like Situ Ling demonstrates the skill of the actors and the depth of the script. This is what makes the very best dramas great.
To complain that more time should be given to the leads or that the secondary characters arent likable in this case is to admit to FFD-ing and disrespecting the art form. And, most importantly, the actors.
Ep26 When Chao Yuan/Situ Ling proposed using the Yousu Fox Illusion spell to Fu Yue, I imagined it meant that he was going to imprison MY/MX in it, as General Xun Ming did to XinLiu. I must have been confused, because although he fed MY his blood (yuck!), she didnt end up a puppet. I thought we would find out several scenes were an illusion until I realized I was wrong.
Can anybody explain the mechanics of the spell he and FuYue came up with?
does anyone know if the subtitles are better (in English) on Viki or Netflix?
Viki's are better. They also often translate song lyrics, sometimes caption characters and really sincerely make an effort to capture the flavor of conversations. But they do not come out all at once in every language.
Like all viki fans watching LITC on netflix, I will rewatch it on viki.
Ep7. Not quite 2/3 of the way through. So many small faults but still I find it relaxing. I never feel lost, with such a small cast; the settings are clearly structured so we are always oriented in time and space.
The main plot still coheres, barely. We still wait to see what the full picture will be, in the end, but the FL is still settled in a 'hidden' village, which seems as close to Seoul as the other side of a door. The villains are wildly overwritten, vicious and cruel.
The villagers are underwritten, without any characters who stand out, so far, beyond the brothers and Lee Don's sister the principal, who is a bit of a caricature. Will there be a clever ending well-planned for by the longgone Chairman or Lee Don or by YR herself?
An odd black comedy, without enough acting fizz but visually coherent. Decent ratings on Korean TV, a good reception on viki (which means Latin America likes it) and mixed reactions here on mdl. An odd duck.
Love the show, but Tae Phoon's mom is really annoying me! She is an adult, she should be help him! But she is…
I agree. It looks like she hid their financial situation from him. Parents do get in the habit of that. But after Dad passed, when she needed to lean on him, she didnt....she didnt realize he was actually so strong.
He isn't soppy in any character. He is very versatile n excellent.
I love Junho helplessly, but King the Land really freaked me out. He will always own a piece of my heart for Just Between lovers with Won Ji Ah. And The Red Sleeve fit him exactly, but imagine it without Lee Se Young.
ep4. This show (and the ML himself) just hit its stride, for me.
The energy and accent of Busan is exciting and romantic history without sentimentality. Love the currency trader!
LJH is at his best fighting for others, as a romantic lead he is just soppy. But in this show he is playing an interesting guy, one who can react quickly if needed but takes his time to understand new situations.
When the show started off with hybridizing roses (shades of song joong ki's sad florist!) I bet we all had a sinking sensation. And his dad dies...Even as Asphalt Man lying down in the road the ML was too passive. But in this ep the pace has really picked up!
Speaking of Harry Potter twists, the soul-seizing spell actually helped with the heavenly grief backlash? Maybe she will be cured by endurance, all unsuspecting the villains will be foiled?
Many commenters may be wondering why till latest ep. even in preview after she confronted her own heart, MY still…
...a lot of growth for MY....but will the director/script/skills of the actress actually be able to satisfactorily dem onstrate it or will we be staring at her lovely eyes like astronomers looking for vague indications of distant planets?...women do not get screentime, support from general teams, enough range in roles during the initial phase of their careers to grow as actresses so we as viewers must be kind, but I hope every time to see better work...

I am really enjoying it now.
