im still confused why his dad kills him in 2022. he went his entire adult life growing up just fine so why would his dad kill him later? also what loophole allows him to live and raise a son? and why does yeon woo kill yoon young's mom in 2021? lots of questions still unanswered. i also felt like the second half of this show became super family drama-esque. perhaps would've been better with 12-14 eps, with some of the family stuff cut down, esp on the ML's end. also what happened to ko min soo after everything? horrible that ko mi sook still had to go home and live with him. finally, i wish we'd gotten to see more of lee sun ae and baek hee seob. they were so freaking cute and im so glad they had a happy ending. overall, i really loved the show up until the reveal of the real murderer. his backstory was super weak. why come back early from america and lie to everyone to kill a bunch of nobodies?
omg were they not allowed the extra 4 eps or something? it was such a good show. it's a shame they wrapped it up so quickly and unsatisfactorily in the last episode :(. the friendship between hdm and pgs was my favorite part of this show for sure. i could've watched an entire show just about the rise and fall of their relationship from college till now.
super cute show. amazing chemistry between the main trio. all the plotlines felt like they were written by a super old person about super old people but still an enjoyable watch if you're just looking to pass the time!
is it only me who finds this very mid? the ‘schemes’ so far are basic with no suspense, it’s like child’s…
i agree with you! i especially feel that the romance is forced and is falling short. overall feel that it is bad writing and weird editing bc zyr and cdl are both strong actors. the schemes are all very boring :(
my favorite thing about this drama is, well the second leads of course, but beyond that, the pacing. its been a reallyy long time since ive seen c-ent put out a well paced xanxia and this was perfect. it didnt drag, and more importantly, they didnt rush the ending. all the characters got fully fleshed out arcs. i really enjoyed this show. the only thing that was sub par was the main romance, but lowkey i didnt really care about that at all because the other characters and their relationships with each other were so interesting and well executed that the main romance being kinda bad didnt even matter. def worth the watch. it was so easy to watch i binged the whole thing in 3 days.
feeling emotional at finishing this. im going to miss them sm. this was so well acted, well directed, and well scripted. def deserves a way higher rating on here.
16 eps in and this is just insanely good wtf??? one of the best shows ive watched in a long time. finally something that feels original script wise and isnt just the same old boring revenge wuxia. the mainstream costume cdramas of today are so predictable and repetitive. feels refreshing to watch a script like this!
