Maybe the writer should consider having all males in the drama fall in love with the female lead for the ratings to go up... Jesus, what a shame. Such a beautiful drama, with amazing plot and acting and they are cutting it short. Meanwhile you have other, idiotic ones keep airing.I feel bad for all involved in this project.
Personally, i don't have a little bit of problem with the age difference in the drama. It would be hypocritical on my part since i have seen and enjoyed many korean dramas where the female lead is much much older that the male protagonist. This was actually one of the reason why i started to watch this drama, because i was glad that finally there was a korean show where the guy was older than the girl since the ''noona dramas'' have became quite the trend all this years.
But unfortunately the show took the usual kdrama turn but for the worst.I don't know about the others but personally i am is sick and tired of asian dramas where every single guy falls in love with the female lead, as if there are no other women in the world. To me it feels like either the writer is someone with lots of repressed impulses who didn't get much love when younger and is torturing now the audience with their fantasies of their private harem or a cheap tactic to gain more female audience by having different pretty boys to pair with the female lead. Or both. Either way is stupid, unrealistic and is not doing any favor to both females and males. Don't play with our intelligence that much.
I know that i'm ranting right now and generalizing like hell but since we are at it can the Asian writers , especially women, please stop portraying almost all second female leads or actors (when they do exists) as spoiled evil bitches who we all should hate, including all males on the series, because ,remember, they all must love our protagonist? What the hell is that? Why all second, third, forth and so on guys must be nice or at least likable but the females must be witches? It irks me the most because i know that these shows are mostly targeted toward women and it makes me feel that we women can't take a bit of competition and we should see other women as devils.You can have a second female who can be a decent human being, loves the hero unconditionally and doesn't want to kill him or the female lead because her feeling were hurt. It can happen.Or at least you can write one. You can have the whole male population of Seoul in love with the heroine is not so difficult to write a likable second female character.
Dear writers (and i have praised you many a times and i will do so again and again because your writing is otherwise brilliant) , we can take a nice second female lead. And we can take a show where the guy is loved by more than one NICE female actors and we can definitely, definitely take a story about a girl who is loved only by one man, you know, THE MAIN ONE, and not the whole frigging country. Because it can happen in real life.Try it for once. Who knows, it may work and the story might be quite interesting.
I'm not asking for a complete change of formula of the dramas, i know it's impossible and i know that people are enjoying them the way they are (that's why they are so popular after all) but ,please, at least consider some kind of diversity or a bit of range. Jesus Christ i was so exited about this drama because i loved Kim Rae Won in Punch and i couldn't wait to see him in his new project. And i have to drop it because of the stupid harem format. Same with Lee Joon Gi's new drama which apparently is going to be another harem series. Why, WHY why? Damn it. So disappointing.
So all this men in the drama are all going to fall in love with the female lead? Oh wow! Well, If that's the case then women must have been a rare species in that period of time. Οr, the person who wrote the plot must have really been into "group lovin'" Jokes aside thought i would have really liked to see Lee Joon in this show but i detest this harem type of dramas where the protagonist, male or female, jumps from one lover to another and can't decide who they want. Too bad. See you in the next drama Lee Joon,
