I know I shouldn’t be annoyed by the misogyny of male leads at this point, but it really grinds my gears that Xixi can’t associate with/be alone with Zixian DESPITE being friends for years because he likes her…but it’s ok for Sichen to associate with/be alone with Xiwei BECAUSE they’ve friends for years and she likes him…*bangs head on wall*

As over top as his acting was, the actor who played Nitan really nailed the unhinged, paranoid, psychotic villain role. I couldve sworn they tried to make him a drug addict too, he kept touching his nose and showing signs of paranoia and had violent outbursts, but they never touched on that

Choi Soo-jin appreciation comment. “Scene stealer” can over-used sometimes, but not here

Let’s stop calling it “school violence” when it’s actually “attempted murder”. Thinking about some of the Korean celebrities and public figures that I recall having bullying scandals and only ended up losing their jobs terrifies me.

I needed more screentime for Na In-woo (leader of the village who saves kidnapped women)

Me 🙋‍♀️

Please don’t take this as a hate comment because it’s absolutely NOT. This is one of the few dramas that actually made me cry this year along with Red Sleeve Cuff and Snowdrop, but…not every drama needs a season 2. This had shockingly amazing closure for ALL the characters despite how many there were. Maybe a special episode if you want to see the crown prince and crown princess’s baby, but I for sure do not want to see our queen, crown prince, and crown princess go through all the stress that would happen in a season 2 lol

I'm obviously an idiot because i didn't realize Khaotung was the one who sang the opening title song

Let’s just assume it was everyone’s favorite killer, the white truck of doom lol

That part

*screaming in 52-hertz whale frequency*

I try not to comment on comment on actors' appearances even if they had work done, but yeah, the stiffness in Kwan's face was REALLY hard to get past. And those nails--omg don't get me started. I thought Gul's expressions leaned more towards comical than menacing

Everything about this version makes me ill, especially this version of Chaya and Wat's crappy manipulative mom who screams like a banshee. Whenever Wat talked to Som or whenever Nus talked to Chaya, it felt like 4 different conversations were going on, but it was the same 4 conversations every time, do you know what I mean? Example:
Chaya: If Wat was gone, you'd love me again!
Nus: I never loved you, you're my uncle and my parents never showed me attention.

Som: Nus is a bad woman sleeping with her uncle who stole you from me!
Wat: We were never together, I never loved you more than a friend.

I only endured to the end because I loved the Kimmy/James version

Honestly I wasn’t a fan of hers until Sisphyus. She needs more action roles, less deer-in-the-headlights damsel-in-distress roles. Although now that she’s a mom (CONGRATS!!), she’s probably not going to take too many of those to avoid injuries…Also for people asking about her comeback—she had her baby 4 months ago. You don’t know what her body or mind is going through postpartum so please be patient

Just 3 words: What the fuck

POV: You're back here because we found Vegas and Pete's son and it made you nostalgic

…what the hell was with that ending? Like it wasn’t bad but I feel like they were building it up to expect more?

GMMTV really just took all their signed actors under 28 and threw them in this didn't they lol. Just wondering where Luke and Dew are lmao

(Also, I'm exaggerating, I know they're not all under 28)

Sometimes I like when the female lead is annoying af because it makes room for stellar character development, but I’m been trying to just get through ep 5 for 4 weeks now because I’m just so put off by her. And I hate it when they portray female cops as reckless, impulsive, and headstrong like this

Also, since I dropped it, can someone be a dear and tell me how Jae Yi died? I don't think I'll be able to sit through that scene....
