This series absolutely blew me away from the first ep but now is starting to annoy me. I’m the first one to be all for non-romance aspect but to have close to zero interactions with the FL in the whole 30eps after that heated night is a bit absurd. And on top of that the amount of useless chance encounters with Ms. Mo is getting really annoying. She was cute in the beginning but now overstayed her welcome. She is completely useless. Starting to really feel the need to just skip chunks of eps. Wanted to really like it like 11/10 till the end but it’s getting on my nerves.
One of the rare near perfect gems. And to think I almost didn’t watch it!? But lately all the wuxia dramas are such a brain rot that I’m getting really tired of them. Seems like most of them are made for people with reduced mental capacity smh. And it’s a shame because wuxias are one of my fave guility pleasures but can’t seem to find good ones. Does anyone feel the same? And can anyone recommed something similar?
Fell into the Wuxia trap again. I liked the idea of being stuck in a book and playing with the plot but I'm at…
You and me both. It really baffles me that people are unbothered by these things. Like how can you enjoy that? Playing devils advocate the story does get underway soon after ep9 and it’s quite intriguing but then you get another middle finger around ep18 or so. So proceed at your own risk 🤣
Amen! This bracelet is such a dirty, disgusting and absolutely rotten cheap emotional bait that it enraged me to the point of wanting to stop with C-dramas alltogether. On its own it would have been passable if they didn’t try so hard in the first few episodes oversell the ML’s distaste for FL (or ML in general), it’s like ok you don’t have to rape us with his angry behaviour, only to use it as a shock factor with this this bracelate incident. Clear sign of garbage writing.
Finally somebody said it. Mu Jin's wife is so freaking annoying, self-absorbed and selfish and this show tries soo hard to convince us the opposite and shove it down our throats it’s quite repulsive. The biggest irony is she adds absolutely zero value to the plot.
I’m on ep4 and the ML is really starting to get on my nerves. They most annyoing thing is that the drama tries so hard to make him cool and powerful as if everyone is beholden to him when in fact he’s just acting like an angry little dweeb. Does it get better?
Every now and then I come back to this drama. It was just so great and healing for me. I enjoyed so much when…
Spot on! Me too! Usually is the bullshit angst and endless misunderstandings that make your brain rot. And turn everyone into irredeemable spoiled nasty teenagers. Still don’t get how people can watch that garbage, ENJOY it and rate it 10?!
What was that!? The VIPs were beyond cringe this season. Absolute trash. This was embarassement even to the most amateur of high school plays. When will Korean industry stop picking up random forigners that are not actors of the street and putting them in shows?! On the whole this season felt super hollow. Something just didn’t feel right. All the interesting inticate interplay between human greed and survival instinct was gone. It all felt mechanical and all the bad characters were saved by luck more times than politician with good PR only to die the most boring deaths. As if to justify they were not so bad. It reeks of western moral self-righteousness so much. It’s more than apparent that after season 1 success the Netflix HQ (USA) smelled the money and had to get their dirty hands on it. You could just fell they wanted to quickly wrap up this so they can reboot it in the states. Shamless money grab.
No it’s not only you! VIP’s were beyond cringe in this season. Absolute trash. That’s because they took bunch of foreigners of the streets who are not even actors, just happen to be married to a korean man/woman and have right to work in Korea.
FINALLY A SATISFYING ENDING! For me, one of the issue of kdrama lately is they failed to maintain the story until…
Agreed. For me it's mostly how f****** self-righteous most of these writers are lately. The villains do the most despicable things and they get away with it, and in the end it's just slap on the wrist.
