This is 20th century girl but with less things happening

Was super funny in the beginnning. Loved that I couldn’t predict what was going to happen because the FL does the most random things and that has the most random effect on the plot. Towards the end it got a bit slower, with less comedy and the plot leaned more towards romance and politics. Overall very enjoyable. I usually avoid LYN dramas or can never finish them, but this was fun. Plot is fresh and hilarious despite the overdone isekai premise (going into a game/show/book)

Yeah I’m curious too. they really only changed his name so far. personally I’m not really a fan of image cleansing tyrants. they should’ve just gone all out create a fictional tyrant than just changing a name

oh wow I wonder how they are gonna actually do that haha he really was quite the tyrant… guess they just changed his name here

Is he really based on yeonsangun? I guess they changed his name to avoid accusations of historical revisionism. He really was a tyrant… it’ll be hard to paint him in a sympathetic “he was just misunderstood” light

Is the king yeonsangun or what lmao

Had no expectations but this was a decent light watch. I like that there’s no “grand” evil thats evil for no reason other than to be evil. I enjoyed both the high school rom com and the supernatural shaman aspects

Not bad but the ending was really something…

nah its GWANG SIK

Logged in after months just to ask why is gwang sik so hot 😭😭😭😭

I did not like the how the romance played out, but worst of all no one looked like they were high schoolers. TJEY LOOK 30 tbh

joke i just binge watched 17 eps all night and now its monday morning, work has started, and ive not had any sleep

ok so every romance drama theres a discourse about how the male lead is always unrealistic, which i agree to a certain extend, but are they truly unrealistic or are our expectations of men just on the ground lmao

wasnt really expecting to like this since i hated hidden love, but im 10 ep in on my first seating and i cant stop watching.

Ooh yes because every rich ceo male lead needs to have a childhood trauma some how

Yes. Characters are “bigger” in the show than they are in the novel. It has some essence of the novel like the 7 lives and some lives had similar tropes to the novel, but a lot more stuff was added to create “plot” for the dram. Imo I didn’t like the show compared to the novel

Honestly they really fumbled with the insane makjang chaebol plot. Spent so much time on the nonsense it was literal long form rage bait. the antagonist had way too much screen time and he even has sad sob origin story. My question is who tf cares. It would’ve been so much better if it focused on the relationship between the main couple as well as haein’s relationship with her family. The shows saving grace was the god level acting from the main leads anyway.

the writer is so formulaic it’s crazyyyy. Literally all of her shows are the same - rich couple, rich villain who at first seemed reasonable and turns batshit crazy, threatens the life of the main couple, but gets killed in the most anticlimactic way possible. Lack luster plot gets carried by the hype, chemistry, god level acting of expensive A-list main leads. Literally what happened in my love from the stars, legend of the blue sea, crash landing on you, and now QOT.

I used to be a big fan of the writer’s dramas but it’s 2025 the formula she invented in 2013 is getting a little tiring now, but alas this show was a commercial success so we’ll be seeing the same slob from Lee ji Eun in a year or two.

Idc if you think me a hater cos trust me, I wanted so badly to love this. I love me a good tear jerker but this drama was mostly rage bait.

Same I watched it when it was ongoing too

yes of course you are free to feel certain ways about characters and the drama. I think we can agree the love story was heartbreaking indeed

The show was so cute. It’s basically kyungsoo cooking while kwangsoo entertains. I loved their interactions with the staff. And all the food looks so good😭😭😭
