I'm dumping in episode 8 for the exact reasons you wrote. I am no fan of Yoona at all, but I was enduring. However those two entire episodes on the food competition tired me completely. I lost all interest.
Having "gone through so much" or having "it so hard" is not an excuse to treating people poorly…
I do my best to just "consume" dramas that will be enjoyable to me. That is why I read comments and reviews, and if I find a drama lacking, I will not "consume" it. Don't worry, I am very aware that fiction is not reality, that's why I can avoid what I don't like.
I watched episode 8 and I'm sorry but I can't bring myself to hate Sang Yeon. Yes, she did many wrong things,…
Having "gone through so much" or having "it so hard" is not an excuse to treating people poorly like she did, least to her supposedly best friend. I hate to hear that "justification" to vindicate a bad person.
Watch Legend of the Female General. You will change your mind
I have seen it and I liked it very much. A friend recommended it, that is why I gave it a chance, and I enjoyed it very much because very soon she was found out and she then was seen as a female.
so the second couple was 10 yrs appart an everyone was rooting but the main couple 11 years.. and ppl where anoyed?
No, I don't like noona romances so I wasn't rooting at all. In fact, I fast forwarded their scenes. The age gap of the main couple didn't bother me at all. They were perfect for each other!
Great story!! I liked the two leads very much, I loved their chemistry, soft paced but strong. As many other c-dramas, their very ends are far from great. I would've like the story to end in episode 35, with the inclusion of the punishment of evil, cunning, treacherous Chu Zhao, just as his master was punished. However, the little weasel fooled FL and ML, as well as the simpleton king, and created havoc in the last episode!! I can't believe how the king turn around on the ML, believing everything the weasel CZ told him. It was good that at the end he didn't get away with his schemes and received punishment. I would've like him to receive the same penance as his master, but ok, at least he was vanished to exile. ಠ_ಠ The main couple's wedding was the perfect ending for me... ❤
Horrible version!! The fl is always frowning, sad or angry. The ml keeps leaning to her, placing his face so close to her he looks as if he is cross-eyed. It's a no no no for me!!
