My French is rusty but I think I got the gist of it.

I'm guessing their first language is not Korean? I'd rather speak French than Korean too if that was the case.

Agreed! She is.

It's not baiting, it's asking a question. I think in the end, it's the script, or the story. Something isn't right. for me, she's kind of selfish. Matthew is too self sacrificing. both are too much. Hope it straightens out.

From my view: he's been abused verbally and emotionally by his sister for a long time. It is a survival mechanism to be that way.

Yeah, feel sorry for the character. I'm rooting for him to get with the girl who liked Matthew.

As usual, I prefer the side characters more than the main ones - they are more fun. Why are so many women main characters so obnoxious sometimes. This is the worst. I rarely have used this word but she is such a brat. He's trying to work and she wants attention. She doesn't realize how important this is to him? He's done so much for her, gone out of his way for her and it's just not enough?

It's been a year so here is one more recent: The Murky Stream; King Seonjo 1592. Worth the watch if you can see it.

Same in Hollywood. Cost of Living is so high there and there's so much competition, especially if you are not known by someone in the industry who can put in a good word for you. As long as they get work, like supporting actors, they can make a comfortable living, just not extreme like the "stars". As for the 'star fan' culture. This is indicative of people who don't have much going on in their lives. Some of us care more about the stories. That's what it should be about.

Wow. I only came to look into who he was because I really liked Trauma Code and the one about the girl with daily amnesia. Two very distinct roles that he did very well in. I'm guessing you missed my other comment on nepotism in Hollywood and how it has essentially ruined the industry.

It seemed to me that they got better over the course of the series. Every series is like that. Many famous classic well loved series from Hollywood usually didn't start to get their 'footing' until the 3rd season.

To the naysayer who didn't like it: I took it as an mature viewer variation of the fairy tale-like movies the Soviets used to put out during the cold war. A little too impossible but with interesting themes. Did anyone catch the "class struggle" elements? Loved it as a whole but was disappointed that Qi Min didn't find redemption in his other life. Maybe in his next one. . .

I love this show -- do not love having to wait a week between each 2 shows though too impatient to wait til they are all available. This show is interesting and very funny! Everyone is great in it! May I add that not as many people would have watched it in the US without the English dub. For me, those are the ones I tend to watch more than once: once with dub to get the story and then in orignal to enjoy the variation of dialog and voices.

We call it 'RBF' resting B face. My youngest daughterhas one a lot like his. LOL

Thank you for bringing it up. I don't know what xianxia is but I'll look for it.

I've never understood "chemistry" in movies. I took it as the ML's personality - his contrariness and lack of self awareness except for the one thing he wants, his powers. While he couldn't be all 'love-dovey' he showed it in his actions many times. The crown prince liked her too and he was just as awkward about it. The only man in their circle who could openly express his feelings was Jin's nephew.

. . . and there it is. . . word of advice: envy makes wrinkles

Sounds like more of a popularity contest. Where have we seen that before?

His parents are models, are they actors also? IF it's nepotism, it's not unlike Hollywood. When it gets so big that people who know people can break in a lot easier than those that nobody heard of. I hope that's not the case in Korea. Great writing, production, action gives way to mediocracy and I'd hate to see that happen with Kdramas. That's why I watch them -- I've given up on Hollywood (garbage).
