Not *really*. I mean: yes, but not clearly shown on screen.

I also thought that initially, but as you see at the start of the next episode, that's because it's someone else's gun.
There's a mistake the way you describe though in the flashback of ML being shot in Poland: he's shot twice from the same silenced gun, but the second shot is much louder.

Viki as another legal streaming platform typically has the same content removed as Netflix – at least that's the case with the Reply series, where all the blurring, swapped out songs, and removed scenes really affect things.

Thirty But Seventeen was available in various countries until two days ago (Jan 09). Right now it's gone from Netflix in all countries but Japan.

Is it just me, or does whoever of Sukjong, Yeongjo, Sado, Jeongjo, etc is played by a popular attractive actor always get shown in a more positive light (= as a more benevolent and more competent person), whereas the respective father or previous king is portrayed as more of a tyrant?

She doesn't get to do more than perhaps 1.5 different facial expressions in this one. It's different in, say, Black.

Nope

How does that make it a 1 out of 10?

About 2/3 into the show, the mystery of who was shown at the start of ep1 is very clearly solved, and explored in depths. Did you skip episodes?

They seemed to have too many episodes in their budget, thus added too many filler storylines, and IMO they messed up all redemptions arcs as well.


For the first third or so, Min Yu Ra is the second most evil character to be seen, and in the last third she's somehow vindicated, but not before taking another life (ultimately unpunishedly). After doing this she satisfiedly dies, and is magically revived in the happy end timeskip segment and adopted into the Good Guys' Family.

The fates of the two male leads are just WTF.

Felt like due to the 'live shoot' system, this show changed halfway through to add more generic K-drama comedy scenes and such that don't fit the tone set initially.

I wasn't sold by how she was turned from scheming secondary evil into best friend supporting character & adopted into the family & doting mother-in-denial.

He finds that out pretty early.

Yes, they survive.
It's not Game of Thrones with non-stop character deaths.

Not really.

There's some "happy family" happy ends, though.

- why does the uncle lie about his business trip in the first place, just as a red herring for the audience? makes no sense to me.
(is the business partner the uncle hopes to receive money from / not get scammed by mentioned more than once?)

- that the uncle is the person who shows kindness to Jennifer is never discovered.

- why does the aunt have such a bad relationship and overall frosty attitude to FL after the timeskip? and if so, why does she still give FL the money from the house sale?
if she is upset with FL because her husband worked himself to death refusing to sell the house for her sake, did she then stop paying the hospital bills out of spite?
(I don't recall anything about her being distant in her role as FL's adoptive mother.)

- the aunt & Chan (& the saved son) never get to reconnect

- the girl with a crush on Chan should reappear

Things I thought were left out, unexplained, underdeveloped:

(I watched it on Netflix. The train trip scene that involves characters singing is missing from Netflix, like commonly seen with shows like the Reply series. Otherwise I don't know if the Netflix version lacks content.)

Re that, you should finish watching It's Okay, That's Love :3

17:33 in episode 8 out of 16 on dramacool/dramafever/those clone sites.

Is there as much missing as in the Reply shows, like - are there any other singing scenes?
Otherwise while watching on Netflix I only noticed some blurred logos, but no obvious story gaps.
