IF she does not have APD I will be pissed. The title is literally "Psycho But It's All Right" which is a play…
That woman definitely has a mental illness (that's what I'm guessing from her behaviour) but we really don't know what it is and if it can be cured. Did they say she ASPD in the show description? Cause I haven't read up on it and just by watching the drama I didn't see any proof of ASPD.
Some thoughts on the romanticization of mental illness:
1. Dramas aren't educational videos, Dramas are meant for entertainment and HAVE to romanticize things.
Most dramas romanticize things that maybe should not be encouraged in real life. A prime example that comes to mind is Crash Landing On You, there was talk about the romanticization of North Korea, and for me personally the ending where they spend their years waiting for two weeks with each other. In a drama, all of that may sound romantic but it could be such a nightmare in real life.
Although this drama deals with the theme of mental illness, and they are doing a good job of some insight into the field, we cannot expect it to be a practical tutorial.
2. We aren't actually sure that FL has ASPD, because the drama itself didn't make it known till now, all we hear is people telling her she is different and that she was born that way. The weird reporter mentioned her having ASPD. But there was no actual confirmation anywhere.
I really like the FL, maybe in real life, I should keep my distance from someone like her, but I am having a great time watching her be so bold and beautiful on my screen. She'd call me a hypocrite if I said otherwise.
It was up at 11KST yesterday and the previous week. Something is wrong today. The episode is up but you can only access it by clicking next from episode 3. Also there are no subs.
I think there's something wrong with the subtitles today that's why Netflix isn't displaying the episode on the show page yet. Its supposed to be up at 11 KST (that's how it was yesterday and the previous week). I can still watch the episode without subs if I go to the next episode from ep3.
Right now is totally a spoiler alert. So what made Su Ziying change his mind on ep 23 when Qianqian captured him…
ChuChu was restricting men from holding posts and getting educated. Also QQ was already proving herself to be a better person than Su Ziying remembered. When QQ apologised for her past behaviour and showed him what ChuChu was doing he was disillusioned and realised that QQ had changed and deserved a chance.
I completed watching it up to 3 episodes , till now I couldn't find such intrest , can I continue watching it
Hema, this show might not be to your taste. As a fan of this show, I think I was really sucked in by episode 3. Maybe look around for better options for you.
I'm giving up. Can't stand the music and the editing. I hate this voice particular voice being used for every single drama. Although I like the capable and upstanding FL, but all the lying and mind games she is using with the ML is annoying. ML is also not exactly good at acting or charming enough to keep me interested. #Dropped
Is this drama is made for only or mainly for Korean/asian audience or for European and Americans also?
All Kdramas are made for their local audience but they have found an international fan base, thus we often find them released with subtitles on international streaming sites. This particular show has a character that is offensive which is receiving a lot of criticism from the international audience. So give it a try and see if you like it.
Is this drama worth watching I don't wanna waist my hours watching.
The quality of editing is terrible. But it has some of the What's Wrong With Secretary Kim vibes so that's fun. The FL is really annoying at times though, so altogether I"d say don't watch unless you have nothing else to watch right now.
So I'm on episode 1 and I'm not sure if I can manage it. The acting isn't very good imo. The supernatural stuff…
Please don't drop it before episode 7, the first few episodes were confusing and weird for me as well because for some reason we begin in the middle of the story.
Anyways I hope you stick it out and give it a fair chance because this show is truly amazing.
Tell me, as a non BL fan, is this drama ok?Too much BL vibes in my timeline about this drama and it's a turn off…
Yes! As others have already answered, the genre here is not 'BL'. Untamed is a fantasy show with sects of magical(or spiritual) practitioners, necromancy, horror elements. The story is about Wei Wuxian and his journey which starts light heartedly but goes down a dark and scary path. You see him his amazing family and friends. Its just that his love interest is a man.
I understand what you mean by not being a 'BL drama' fan, I'm not a fan of most of them either. But Untamed is definitely good and you should give it a try.
So since it only goes up to episode 24 on wetv does that mean that there releasing more then 2 episodes a day???
The schedule you see on MDL is based on the release in China (without subtitles). Internationally you see the schedule on the wetv app where they'd release 2 ep for 3 days in a week
People coming to the comment section for first impressions, here's mine:
The drama is set in a very web-toon like environment, there are a lot of saturated colours, exaggerated fight scenes and movements, makeup and styling of the characters and so on.
I have watched Fiery Priest(by the same director) and although there are some similarities, I wouldn't say you should watch this just because you like Fiery Priest.
It is funny at times and displays very human characters who are adorable. Ji Chang Wook as Cha Dae Hyun is so adorable and I have Bong Soon(from Healer) vibes. The FL is very confident and sexy. I love her, but her "I want it, I got it" persona has sparked a lot of debate though, so she might not be to everyone's liking.
I found the drama a little too chaotic up till now. The cinematography compared to other popular kdramas seems to be lacking, but it may be my own preference. I'm going to continue watching and make up my mind later.
From 1.0 - 5.0 - 6.5 - 8.2 - finally the score is starting to reflect the quality of this drama
Yeah at this point I wouldn't rate it higher than 8. The earlier ratings were crazy unfair. Anyways now that its mellowed out, let's wait for the upcoming episodes.
Since you start a discussion, you should be prepared to hear the other side of the argument. I don't think anyone…
I see your point. I guess those folks got a little worked up over the drama and wanted to keep a normal place for drama discussions. Still, everyone is allowed to say whatever they like. I was one of the critics in the infamous TKEM comment section so I understand that such defence can be annoying as well.
Lets keep watching the drama and hopefully we'll have better discussions :)
