Just watch it. Don't short change yourself a fantastic drama because of MDL comments. It's open/happy ending, depending on how you look at it. There is heartbreak, found family, etc. Just watch it.

I hate her reviews. Shes so damn biased and picky about the dumbest things. If i had listened to her, i never would have watched Love Like The Galaxy, and its one of my ALL TIME favorite dramas. Form your own opinions. Im loving this drama, too.

23 was a great episode, but i wish MJH got more credit, or a 1:1 with his dad after all of that. I wanted to see them have a heart to heart. Im also surprised by Mei's friend. She wanted the king saved so badly, and MJH literally nearly died taking a sword for him, just for her to push her brother on Mei again and act like "oh, debts were settled, move on."

No Go Jun? Boooooooo!!! He was my favorite character last season.

Dear Mandarin-fluent friends, would you please tell me how to pronounce the name Xiao Li Tan phonetically? It's not drama-related, obviously. I believe it's "SHAO LEE-TAHN"—is that right?

very much same. the BTS sounds way better.

That would make sense. Its not like he hasnt dubbed himself before- i loved his real voice in Love You 7 Times

I really wish they'd kept the original voices for the FL and ML. They've both got great voices.

Yup. His vocal cords were injured over a decade ago

Same. I Saw The Devil was my original fave until i saw this

Honestly, if that WAS the case, i think it would be Tae Goo who is shy about it. Hes a *very* shy person in real life. Still, the BTS shows that theyre pretty comfortable around each other. Theyve worked together before and always say wonderful things about each other. Who knows the reality behind the lack of kissing. Only the director/writers, really.

Im on episode 2. Who in their right mind thought anyone would believe Su Rong Qing is more attractive than Pei Wen Xuan? lolololol. We HAVE EYES.

he's done ASMR! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiyvC6CVx7I&t=20s

I explained it earlier, but he is ashamed of who he is. Its especially obvious in todays episodes when he was self conscious to stand in front of her after getting out of jail and covered in injuries. He'd rather she miss the past self of him, than disappoint her idealized version of him. He has to accept himself to allow her in. Right now, he doesnt feel good enough for her. He feels dirty and like she doesnt belong in "his world."

He has to accept himself, too.

Its obvious to me that hes not proud of who he is. He'd rather she miss the idealized, past version of him than disappoint her with the ex-thug he is now (at least, thats his mindset). It was especially obvious in Ep 8 after getting arrested and beaten. He seems himself as a criminal. Dirty. Not deserving of her. Hence the noble idiocy in pushing her away.

Ep 8
YASSSS
BASK IN THE GLORY OF UHM TAE GOO'S DRAMATIC ACTING.

Boy is on fireeee with his eye acting. Good LORDT, SLAY, KING.

Im on ep 15. Do we get to see him without his mask yet? Like, without shit hiding parts of it

I'm so tickled by the obsesson with his voice. WELCOME TO THE THUNDERDOME.

Sincerely, a longtime simp of that delicious smokey voice. 😋

Per usual, the MDL comments are rife with immature, half-fledged opinions on a drama because its not rainbows and butterflies and saccarine romance. Skip the comments, watch and think for yourself. I personally believe its great. A slice of life drama with realistic characters. Neo does a great job here (i think its been immensely helpful to hear his real voice and true vocal inflections vs a cleaned up dub that masks his acting. No more "constipated face acting" here, to which I am delighted).
