I don't understand the negativity around the concept. I don't think the show is glorifying or encouraging…
I agree. If they have taken time to watch the episodes so far, they would have known (if not yet realised from the synopsis) that it was taken mostly from the guy's point of view. And since he was the "victim" of the situation, naturally he gets the most sympathy from the viewers and that makes Ji Hyo's character an unwilling villain. That's far from glorifying the affair. Sure they can say it justifies extramarital affairs but I think it's merely pointing out that no situation is black and white. Truth has many faces and the drama's just showing some of them.
Plus, the show's freaking funny despite the issue they're tackling.
With their exceptional performance, I have to keep reminding myself that King Yeongjo portrayed here is different…
Indeed. But his intentions can be very different from his actions. He might be too hard on his son to prepare him for his future. But of course it's also possible that he is disappointed that his son can never compare to him. After all, the King is supposed to be a prodigy. We will never know. Still, it is very difficult for me to believe that a son like him who is very devoted to his mother can be cruel to his own son?
With their exceptional performance, I have to keep reminding myself that King Yeongjo portrayed here is different from the sweet devoted son and benevolent ruler King Yeongjo that is described by historians. And that Crown Prince Sado is supposed to be a victim of his carnal desires and lust for blood when he is so righteous here.

I woke up this morning feeling like I'm forgetting something. Then I remembered I just forgot your bday! But then when I checked your page, it's 3 days early! Oh me and my messed up memory lol. But just in case my very reliable memory fails me again I'm greeting you now an advanced happy bday. Lol. I miss you.
My friend and I watched this together and I asked if she enjoyed it once we finished it. She said she likes it but the ending felt incomplete. I thought the ending can not be more perfect.The way that Suji didn't spoke a word and just smiled. I thought it was more than enough to know that she's well and alive after what happened. After all to Suji words are overrated.
And indeed picture is worth a thousand words.
I hope my friends will put up with my craziness even after 25 years. That unlike in this movie, I won't have to reminisce the good days because I'm living in it.

Sleepy!!! I'm still alive lol. But barely. My job's keeping me away from all the things I enjoy. It brings in the magical green things but sometimes I wonder if it's enough reason to continue.
Anyway! I dont want to burden you with my concerns, lol. I miss y'all!!! How are you guys?

I hate waiting for the next epsiode to come out. It kills all my excitement and I dont have the patience. I've tried it before and I have to drop the dramas because all my feels dissipated halfway through.
And yes I love it! The ending is satisfying and the actors are all awesome (although there are some characters whose existence is questionable but regardless! I still adore it)

I love those dramas!! Except for the Cyrano one. I haven't seen the drama yet.
My simple mind can only handle one drama at a time. For now I'm enjoying Moon/Sun very much. If I could i'd watched it all day.

Yup. I'm loving Moon/Sun. Although I miss the kids who acted as the younger versions. I wish someone will make a separate drama with them as leads. :(
When did you start watching dramas? And is it just me or you changed your username?
