I am in love with his wardrobe. It flatters him to the T

You convinced me thanks 😂

LMAO

Now that I saw this, you are so right. He was the ONLY one not obsessed with Awu lol

Finished. I 100% watched a lot of scenes on 2x or just skipped through the political mumbo jumbo. A few points about the drama:

1. There were schemes and betrayals at every turn, which were expected and unexpected. I honestly didn't get exactly why Awu was so so loved, and then suddenly everyone loved her but also hated her, but then switched back to loving her. Like this off-and-on switch had me confused in their sincerity, but I guess that was the mind game writers were playing with the audience too.

2. It should have had 10 fewer episodes and a cleaner ending. What happened to Awu's bodyguard, Gu Ping?

3. The tears shed for the last dude (who shall not be named for spoiler purposes) were so UNDESERVED. I wish XQ said no to his last request.

4. I actually found the last episode (first 20 mins) funny. it was one long speech, then stab, and another long speech and stab lol

5. In my opinion, the empress should have gone earlier

6. There needed to be more romantic/emotional reactions between leads. I don't think i was satisfied by many of Awu's reactions with finding XQ

I would give this 8.5 because the casting for characters, THE DRESSESSES OF AWU, and just the variety of sets they filmed on was soooo good!!

As I watched, the rating was dropping every day, and I thought someone had died or something, lol. Turns out people just hated cliches

Definitely. I don't understand why people have become so allergic to clichés, as these troops keep you coming back and make these dramas a light-hearted watch.

i was mad too but later thought, "What exactly can he do (given his social and familial standing) now that she has been slapped?" he can't possibly hit him, cause thats the ceo and his father. Honestly, I couldn't come up with an answer myself. He did make sure his dad didn't come back indirectly, so I guess that works too.

yep, i dont get the steep rating drop either. I honestly feel like this was a bit below 'business proposal' with all its cliches and execution, but again, with how the tone was set, i expected all the cliches to happen (except the amnesia one, but its okay lol it's a K-drama) Business proposal was similar to this, so I expected nothing deep. The chemistry was really really good tho

i was worried about the ending with how fast the rating was dropping but i m glad I finished it. I personally dont think it was as terrible. There were definitely slow and drag on moments but with all the cliches they thre at you, i didnt expect anything else.

there were credits? oh gosh, i need to watch!

Same i don't think it was as terirble as how fast the rating dropped. i still enjoyed the cliches cause i was not expecting some very deep-meaning drama honestly.

Considering how quickly the rating was declining, I thought the last episodes were so bad. However, they were fine. Yes, i did find it getting boring in the middle and slow, but it's not so terrible for it to go down like this. Few of my thoughts:

1. I think the villain was introduced too late. and honestly, sister was not a good enough villain sidekick so that half of the story was lacklustre.

2. ML's sister was definitely in a toxic relationship so even if I hated her, i really couldn't. She needed more in her story. They definitely could have restored the sibling relationship.

3. Unpopular opinion, but i think Ha-yeon could do so much better than Seon-U. I think he needs to find himself before he starts another relationship because he is just not ready to move on from Da-rim

4. Amnesia was unnecessary, but whatever it was, short-lived lived and this is a K-drama...

5. I loved the absolute torment they showed ML (and Ki Yong's acting) going through when he thought she was married, and he was basically a homewrecker. And that karaoke scene one day before the engagement really made me feel.

6. Yes, a lot of tropes were so cliche but so were the tropes in Business Proposal and I liked that show too, so i didn't mind whatever they threw at us because it was all a laugh or an eye roll, but i didnt expect some deeeep meanings anywhere lol.

Overall - I am glad i didn't stop after i saw the rating dropped because i don't regret watching it. It was a good show with a strong start. I started off by giving it 9/10 and dropping it to 8.4 but again a relly good watch.

It's actually quite poetic. it was shown throughout the drama that she had such a strong will to live and would do anything for it. So the fact that even in the end she gave the middle finger to ML and walked off.... she is a WEED. Her current husband was truly the best option for her

in Gang was the most pitiful out of all. I truly think she would have stayed with him if Grandma didn't die. but she would have definitely made his life miserable later on. Her current husband is the best choice for her. They can keep playing each other and keep each other on their toes.

his manipulation actually revived me back, as I had lost interest in the drama lol i honestly loved him in the show. he was such a good addition to the story

I say Lena cut her losses at the right time and ran. Good on her

'Glory' stayed SOLID throughout. I was hoping this would be another one of that type, but unfortunately not. So i recommend that if you havent watched it yet

it was just annoying how the two guys KEPT going back; like, I didn't even feel bad for them at the end.

I lost interest until CEO Moon showed up and all his manipulation, like, revived me LOL. I honestly stuck till the end for him, and the fact she still got away at the end... damn, that girl is like a persistent weed. Kudos to her.

Almost everyone's acting was amazinggg! (Kim YD's was lacking for me here and there because I just feel like more subtle emotions is not something he can act on, and it stays all the same.)
