i kept seeing tiktok reviews calling this drama cringe. boring perhaps but whats so cringe about this drama? the couple has quite a natural relationship progression. they were intentionally written as a somewhat awkward couple but i dont think they were cringe. overall it had a decent message too about self confidence. Are people calling it cringe just because the leads are both known for subpar acting? When this drama aired I rmb Cha Eun woo getting praises because it’s one of his first few roles and people didn’t know he was a bad actor yet.

i rmb he didnt get any flak for his role here when it aired. his role didnt call for much acting chops cos hos character is expressionless most of the time

yeah they had like maybe three interactions in total before the EVENT. and its not like we saw them spending their daily lives together or anything. i feel like if they framed it as the FL finding the ML out of a sense of duty rather than affection it wouldve made a bit more sense

haha is it the one within the palace?

I’m watching for the same reason

its gonna end in tears for him

15 eps in and its still not sticking. i dont think the connection between the leads were built up THAT well for her to be doing so much now. the second couple is also really boring.

I’ve watched 9 eps and so far I’m not loving it. It’s pretty boring and nothing much seems to be happening. The FL is entertaining but also not at the same time??? At least the ML is not a boring broody guy like I thought he would be. He’s actually the funniest character with his hilarious reactions.

FINALLY finished this omg. the last few eps were such a chore. the main couple's romance was good for the first 20 eps. there's tension and expectations, BUT THEN IT JUST FELL FLAT. i think they dragged out the romance for far too long. it wouldve been great if this drama was just 24 eps and focused only on the the main couple, because everything else was SO SO BORING. i found the FL cute at first but after 30 eps she really started to annoy me. the second couple was so boring, i skipped all of their scenes because their relationship was just so dumb. the antagonist was just so dumb and too far deep in her insecurities to make for an interesting character. overall a let down in later eps, which is sad because the beginning was actually good. i usually dont even like modern cdramas but this was not bad for the first 20eps.

nah babes of course hes gotta be some ultra powerful being if hes the ML

I used to have one sided beef with vin Zhang. Idk something about his face was always so menacing when I saw him in a few dramas years ago (where he played side characters). But he looks so soft and cute here. I totally bought his character

If the second couple has no haters then I am dead. The show could’ve saved me the trouble of fast forwarding and skipping all their scenes by just not including them in the first place. The drama would’ve been exactly the same. I honestly can’t stand their melancholic and angsty faces omg. Not only is their premise alr so boring, their relationship looks so dumb.

nah why tf is there a random ass gang raid in this 💀💀💀

The antagonist or the girl who’s jealous of Meiren is also super random. Like why is she here and why is she even needed??? She’s like super dumb and too far deep into her inferiority complex to be given this much screen time. Why does she need a backstory and why should we care

the only good thing about this drama is the romance but the couple is spending too much time apart in the 20s episodes. like what an i supposed to watch then?? ive been skipping scenes of the second couple from ep 2

i felt this way until i watched ep 21!! in fact i dropped the show three quarters through ep 21. i somehow decided to finish the ep and from there i was so intrigued i finished season 2 in just a week.

the second couple is so boring

who is the other one? i can only remember grandmaster ye appeared

who is the other one? i can only remember grandmaster ye appeared

surprisingly i find the FL very cute LOL. like she could be classified as annoying but i just think shes cute
