this is a reviewing and commenting site, not a fansite.

The humour is cringey and PHS is overacting. It's nice that they are really living for the first time in their lives but too much cringe is a letdown. The writer is the same as What's Wrong With Secretary Kim and I found that drama rather silly and old-fashioned tbh, same feeling with Doctor Slump. I don't know, when a writer is all for audience service and pleasing and simultaneously tries to address mental health problems it just doesn't sit right with me. Babies will get hysterics from this comment but that is exactly what is creepy around here. As this is exactly a reviewing and commenting site. People expressing opinions about a drama are not haters and labelling people haters is babytalk but also, seriously, hate speech. If there's one thing to learn in MDL it is that we have different backgrounds and experiences and will always have the right to express our own opinions without being attacked.

creepy as f***k as this happens to be a reviewing and commenting site. People expressing opinions about the drama get the kids attacking them as haters. I'm so tired of this babytalk that I block everyone who labels other commenters as haters.

that's hate speech right there. And creepy as this exactly a reviewing and commenting site. People expressing opinions about the drama get the kids attacking them as haters. I'm so tired of this babytalk that I block everyone who labels other commenters as haters.

I don't think you really missed anything. Those episodes 3-6 were not as good as this is now.

I can. Don't think your opinion is the only valid one.

I agree with you on all points. Except that I didn't find the last 2 episodes good, but let's hope the ending is good.

The Crowned Clown had a happy ending so I'm very trusting that this one has a happy ending too. Same writer.

Have you watched Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung? It's on the lighter side but very romantic. The factual side of it, aka how they documented Joseon history is really interesting.

I had to skip most of ep. 14. Maybe I've watched too many sageuks but I find the palace politicking immensely boring. The principal director has the most screentime actually, should have been marked as main character. I hoped the sweety Dol-Mart boss Lee Shin Young wouldn't have been a bad guy but maybe there's yet hope for character development. I'm pretty sure there's going to be a happy ending though and will def watch the last episodes in the hope of that. Many criticize the FL actress but I don't think she had much to work on. This writer really sucks at writing dialogue. My frustration with the drama is that the main characters don't communicate enough. That is to me never a good place from where to develop suspense. For me personally Shin Sae Kyeong is one of the best actresses, she's entirely different in Run On, Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung and Arthdal Chronicles. I'd recommend Rookie Historian as a way better romantic historical drama - I've watched it twice.

First it is angsty, then it becomes boring. If palace politicking is not yout thing, avoid at all costs!

Can't wait for these writers next drama! Vagabond, Big Mouth and Empress Ki, these are all amongst the very best k-dramas.

Very well written, not a boring moment, fantastic acting. I'm not surprised that Yoona won an award for this, but also Lee Jong Suk would have deserved one. FL character was particularly well written, I just love strong intelligent FLs. Unlike other commenters I didn't find the ending rushed, it was satisfactory. I don't like draggy endings where every side character has to get their time. The drama has a very fine cast of support characters, each having their spotlight moments, in that it was similar to Vincenzo. The suspense is really intense throughout the drama, if you have to avoid stress then better watch this drama some other time.

I'm not annoyed since I love the drama, have watched it twice.

First, not particularly liking a drama is not hating. Saying people hate or calling them haters is babytalk. Second, if you don't understand people have differing opinions, that's exactly what you need to learn here.

Agreed.

yes

happy
