My conclusion after episode 6 is that it's an expensive project with cheap execution. They haven't even learned…
If only there was a way to find out everything that happens in this drama but without having to watch! I bet you could enjoy this story if it was a book!
Disney could release all the episodes of this simultaneously if they wanted to. (But they won't.) Netflix releases their original K-dramas all at once. It's only when they partner with a local network that they must wait to release episodes after they first are broadcast in SK. Why does Disney choose to drag this out?
To everyone’s dismay the FL’s father is getting his redemption arc sooner than later. I have a feeling we’ll…
I agree we will be seeing more of the FL's father and their head-butting will resolve one way or the other. But I continue to be surprised that others see him getting a redemption arc. I don't see it, myself. If it happens I'll go with it. If his daughter can forgive him I can too.
But His actions in ep 6 still seem self-serving to me. I think he sees his kids as extensions of himself and treats them like property. Just because he doesn't want someone else to criticize his daughter doesn't mean he loves her. He could be merely defending his own name, legacy, honor, & business.
FYI, FWIW, This is the writer's first project. Her script won the grand prize at the 2022 MBC scriptwriting contest…
I totally respect your own take and wouldn't want to suppress your perspective! There is room for criticism.
For example, that this is the writers first script also means she is inexperienced. And it's been alleged that many changes were made to the script since production began. So perhaps there could be situation where the project suffers from 1) inexperience and/or 2) having "too many cooks in the kitchen".
And Just because Disney got involved doesn't ensure success. They come to SK for scripts & series &/or production partnerships because they can't do this on their own! That said, the domestic ratings on MBC are doing quite well and its reported that this is the most successful K-Drama ever released by Disney.
Anyway, once the sugar high wears off, I suspect many (including myself) will revisit our initial reactions. Personally, I'm not sure this drama will have a very high rewatch value for me. 🤷🏻♂️
I might give this a chance because I LOVE village settings, but I already know how it ends. They will fall in…
Whenever the writer is excluded from being listed in the Cast section is never a good sign. This was either written by committee (or AI), or the director is just making it up as he goes! And this is only his second drama.
I watched the first 2 episodes. It's obvious the two main leads are especially rude to each other to provide contrast to later, when they become a couple. And the villagers are especially self-centered & obtuse to provide contrast to later, when they become kind & endearing. But it all seems a bit heavy-handed to me. I'll leave this in my watchlist for now, but I remain unsure whether I'll resume watching when ep 3 is released, put this on hold in case of boredom, or drop it. 🤷🏻♂️

Also, what was the humorous book that the ML's wife and daughter were reading? I didn't catch the reference. Thanks in advance!
I'm guessing that next week we are gonna revisit that scene from her perspective.
