I loved this drama so much but I after finishing it yesterday, I have some lingering questions: 1) Why did the snow man appear in the real Hongrang's dream? Why he walked out during the night one time? His father didn't suspect that the Crown Prince was behind his disappearance at all, judging by how they spoke about how he helped him look for Hongrang. This is either a huge plothole or a mystery they didn't have time to explain. 2) Fake Hongrang's timeline: he was a slave and a human talisman, then he ran away from the tomb, then he was kidnapped by the snow man? Inhoe and him were both bought out by Kkot from the family that owned them, but also had been kidnapped by the Crown Prince. I am confused about the timeline here. 3) The existence of many human talismans for the crown prince: in the story, they make it look like he is the only one that has the tattoo of the ying and yang, but InHoe also has a tattoo in his back and he isn't necessary for the ritual. There seems to be many more kids that were tattooed vs the final talismans at the ceremony.
No way this show can have 7.6 stars... everyone who has watched it has hated it! Took me a couple of weeks to watch the last eps and I skipped ahead most of it as it was unbearable and I didn't care. But why does the SML also have to be involved at the end? The writers must be in love with him or something
I thought this drama would be fun because it had a baby in it and it would show the struggles of trying to raise one, but they have almost forgot about him and just have him as a cute side thing. I HATE the FL, is not that she is torn between her first love and the ML, she seems apathetic and not to care about anyone. Suddenly, she seems so passionate about working for a frozen food company, like if it were her lifelong dream, instead of a means to make a living (as it was at the beginning). The line during her date with the SML about her passion for the company got me laughing. It was just ridiculous. At this point I just feel bad for both guys and find it less and less believable anyone would fall in love for someone as shallow and devoid of emotions.
I didn't want to comment about her body but as I see it has become kind of controversial, I'll drop my two cents. She is extremely underweight even for asian standards. She makes her BFF look thick and that actress is skinny. I wouldn't mind at all if it weren't because little girls are watching this and it might give them weird ideas about how their bodies need to look like. And, unless she has got hyperthyroidism or another medical condition, she probably maintains that weight by extreme dieting.
Ikr? I can't believe his last drama was in 2023! Since then nothing. I was wondering if he had gotten into some scandal that I didn't hear about. Hopefully he will get projects when he finishes the military service
Well, shirtless scenes are not just a thing from Kdramas, it's been going on in Hollywood and everywhere else for decades. Like others pointed out, some actors never do them whereas others do. I don't see anything wrong in them, though sometimes they are so forced that they make my eyes roll in the sockets though haha
I loved buzzer beat, I agree with the comment about having one of the best cuddle scenes in j-drama ever hahaha But I am not objective when it comes to Yamashita Tomohisa
I can kind of see the stalking behavior. Sb liked him since she was a kid at karate. Therefore she always had…
Look, I am not hating the drama tbh. I wrote that comment after watching ep 10 and seeing the scene at the beach (followed by her taking him to a hotel). Instead of feeling that their romance is finally getting somewhere, I was left feeling uncomfortable... Like she was again not respecting his personal space

Many korean dramas actually portray really unhealthy relationship dynamics... It is a cultural thing so I won't go into it, but in the west most male leads would be getting restraining orders

Ok, I know what a real stalker is and I am sorry my comment might have come as frivolous. Still, lots of her behavior (although may seem innocent) has the characteristics of stalking. Being in love with someone can lead to obsession, what we do with that fixation (what actions we allow ourselves to carry out) is what makes the difference. If we reversed the roles and he was the one that knew her since she was small, kissed her in the streets, purposefully worked at her shop, acted weird when she was drunk, touched her whenever possible, watched her from afar while hiding himself, etc... we would call HIM a stalker. Just because she is a cute girl it doesn't change the facts.
Am I the only person that thinks this show should be renamed to Diaries of a Stalker??? By ep 10 I don't see the love story progressing anywhere satisfactory
I'm so shocked... He was one of my favourite japanese actors and I was always looking forward his new projects. Like others here I feel so blindsided, why don't asian stars open up about their mental health issues and seek help instead of acting like everything is ok until the end? Why is it such a taboo issue? I wish I could stop seeing everyone I knew growing up committing suicide one after the other... As sad as this is, I hope he is in a better place now and in peace. RIP haruma-kun
Thoughts on Ep 8:1. This show has gotten SO much better since the beginning!! Lee Gon taking WDH to the other…
I think the Shinjae from our reality (republic of korea) probably died but his mother brought him from the other parallel universe (the kingdom of korea). That's why she was saying he is her miracle
I must admit the last two episodes kind of ruined the drama for me... They just didn't feel right and I didn't find the conclusion interesting...
Earlier on, the eraser we got to fear and wonder about was a vicious being who seemed to loath Dongbaek... I don't remember completely well but I think at times the eraser even mentioned DB's ability as something filthy and wrong. Also, even though it was Jaegyu who killed Sunmi's father, the eraser seemed to have a deeper connection with her as she reproduced the killing in the early episodes, but eventually no such link existed...
I'm sure if I re-watch the series from the beginning I could find plot holes or things that just don't quite fit well, but I won't be doing such so I'll just leave it as this was a great drama but the ending didn't live up to the expectations it had raised.
I finished the first two episodes. The casting and actors are great,the ost is good,the production and filmography is well done but... i agree with others that it lacks something. It wasn't too entertaining or interesting so far.
All dramas starring Lee Minho are expected to have a high production quality, or else he wouldn't even have accepted the role in the first place. I did enjoy it so far and it isn't a bad drama at all,but I'm waiting for it to get better.
I had doubts about the female lead actress, but she's great so far so I'm glad about it. Minho is ageless, i don know what night cream he uses but i want the same. I found myself laughing (not hysterically but enough) at the jokes and the oddity of the circumstances.
Any ideas?

At this point I don't care who the eraser is, I am glad it wasn't one of the main and more suspicious looking characters
Next week we'll see the resolution to the story... so far I have enjoyed this show a lot, it stands alone in its genre
