im sesame

even tho I'm enjoying the story, there's a few bits I'm not liking so far esp after ep 4.

-the romance is unnecessary, it made the drama seem cheap fanservice to fill in the gaps when there's no gaps. but the positive thing they didn't over do the romance SO FAR.

-the ml isn't a tyrant or misunderstood as one at all, he's just like any king ig.

-the culinary isn't culinaring, neither the food nor the setting is impressive.

you read too deep into my comment.
my intention wasn't to suggest a remake, just that the character Liao Ting Yan reminded me of Seo Woo in Tamra, The Island which happened to be a Kdrama.

random thought but if there's ever a kdrama of this, they need to have Seo Woo as Liao Ting Yan, idk how to explain it but she reminded me a lot of her esp in her role in Tamra, The Island.

I gravitate towards drama with revolutionary female leads so I liked Mr Queen on a normal level. I already watched the cdrama version, which was just as good tho a bit long and close to the original if I remember right. highly recommend for new sageuk watchers.

I dropped Kingdom bcz I'm not into zombie stuff.

My dearest is on my priority list, it sounds like something I'd enjoy but I'm leaving it for colder days (idk why in my head I feel sageuk is better in winter)

AOS I have no idea why I didn't finish this one and I don't remember anything, maybe bcz I was watching it when it was airing.

Red Sleeve I haven't watched, it didn't seem like something I'd like.

I love historical dramas but it's rarely done right at least for me. the recent ones have good concept but are getting really short, now the characters lack depth and less plot twists.

I'll be checking these again soon. I always write a comment or a review, so I'll be back here with my thoughts.

so far I enjoyed it

omg I hope they have Lee soo hyuk look like his role as Gwi

this sounds right up my alley

sounds cute

his acting was great rip

delulu is the solulu🙂‍↕️

this was good, some parts were really funny and I loved the parodies!
I would've rated it higher if not for the boring romance that ate up most of the last 2 eps!
I wasn't a fan of the side characters some of them were annoying, others were boring.
my fav characters were jin ji, young shik and ji won.

let him cook!

lmao that's even worse! omg why are you sharing your life story?nobody asked! I almost thought a spam acct replied to me.

the point went over your head from the beginning but I replied to you out of courtesy.
I can tell you aren't a native english speaker (and nothing wrong with that) but calling me obtuse with your low comprehension skills while we are conversing in your beloved ENGLISH is quite ironic lol

then that's a special case if they lied on their resume? it's the hotel's responsibility to check who they hire.

I met many people who academically know english but freeze in practise bcz they are not used to it in their daily life or they're dealing with natives with strong accents.

and idk how it goes in every country but most hotel jobs don't require it but prefer if you speak english or another language.

they feel embarrassed bcz some people correlate not knowing english to being uneducated or unintelligent, which is not true!

all the actors are an absolute 10/10

this is why we have annoying karens in every holiday destination.
it's good to know languages but non english speakers shouldn't feel ashamed for not speaking a foreign language!

Brad Pitt probably doesn't even know a single Korean word and it's ok, he's not Korean. so non native english speakers shouldn't be embarrassed not knowing english.

same! I was pleasantly surprised with the fl's end game.

if you're ok with historical dramas, I'd recommend Queen Seondeok
