Why isn't the crown princess our female lead? What is up with most cdramas and their obsession with writing juvenile/immature…
I was hoping she would be smart. Even if she is mischievious - at least be smart. I understand they make characters for character development. But it would have been nice if she was at least on 0, instead of negative 1. lol
I THINK (this is only my opinion) the reviews are mixed because the type of comedy the series has. Slapstick comedy is either loved or hated.
There USUALLY isn't an in between for it. I am one who has my own mixed reviews on the series. I like the series, but I get turned off very easily when they have slapstick comedy skits. I did not start liking the series until ep 4, when the slapstick comedy began to lessen.
It reminds me of Benny Hill, Charlie Chaplin or comedy when we had black and white tv's and no sound...lol (showing my age). Because there was no sound, the comedians or actors had to overact to get the point across. Like a fall just couldn't be a fall, they had to stumble, fall, roll, get up and roll again with exagerated movements - long arms, legs sticking out and all types of foolery.
Like the hanging scene - slapstick comedy is full of exagerated mishaps. It turns me off, while others are very pleased with it.
For those of us who do not like slapstick comedy 1 bit, it kills the vibe, it ends the connection we had. We were just enjoying an action scene, our attention is focused, then someone starts overacting (intentionally) and now our mood has gone from enjoyment to disappointment.
Its like drinking fresh mango juice, then after a few sips, you taste sour lemon juice.
On the other hand for those who like slapstick comedy it would be like drinking fresh mango juice, after a few sips, now you taste pineapple and mango juice.
Also, many were not expecting this to be a comedy at all. After saying that - keep in mind - a lot of us don't read the description, tags, or watch previews. Like me, I like to go in unknowingly and without expectation. I look at the poster, and I am like I wanna watch this or I don't wanna watch this.
first impression is everything. I think the intro fight did a great disservice to this series. in my opinion it was tacky and very dated. which turned me off completely.. someone encouraged me to keep watching and I did. it's not as bad as I expected. it's decent.
what is one small thing that happens in this drama that you like?
it may not effect the series, but it catches your eye.
the small thing that I love in this series is that the little sister sits in their laps during dinner time. it's giving me the sense of "a kid being a kid".
usually in Asian dramas the kids are so disciplined that they have little freedom to actually be a child.
this little thing feels very heartfelt and really gives a sense of family. I love it, it actually makes me 😊 smile.
I don't usually rate a drama I've dropped UNLESS there were only a few episodes left. if I only watched half, I wouldn't rate it. because it's a possibility for it to get better.
such a handsome cast. I'm not usually fond of Dylan's appearance but I THINK (emphasizing that so people don't think my thoughts speak universally for everyone but are MINE ALONE)
I think he looks his best in this series. in this series he is more appealing to me than any other series I've seen him in.
all ratings are every individuals opinion. it seems the majority of those who have already rated, feel 8 is fine.
on the other hand, many haven't rated the series and won't rate it until they've completed it. .not everyone rates after 1 episode. not everyone rates every episode
many are like me, we wait until we've completed the drama to rate it.
so, why is the rating "so low"? Because that is the opinion of those who have submitted their rating.
so far 8 is good. the drama just started. if we are rating by episodes, the last 4 would be an 8 for me. the first 3 were a 7 for me. and Ep 4 was a 7.5 for me.
