Are you freaking kidding me? this adaptation isn't even half of what the real story is about! Why did they change…
Nothing of the story was "changed" it was simply "cut out". I read the novel, and while watching the drama, it was the same thing except parts "messing" so I felt them in mentally since I know what was messing and made much sense to me..
People say that they couldn't understand the movie so I will write what it's all about.
So basically YueYue likes Su Yi, while Su Yi likes Bai Yu. Bai Yu doesn't like Su Yi back but Su Yi is crazy for him so he asked YueYue to help him date Bai Yu. YueYue wants to see Su Yi happy so he offered Bai Yu money for his sick mom in exchange for dating Su Yi. YueYue's sister knows how much he likes Su Yi, so she made a deal with Bai Yu to get him with the person he likes in exchange of leaving Su Yi. Then Bai Yu left and disappeared for three years. Su Yi is still following Bai Yu around while Bai Yu doesn't like him back. Su Yi asked YueYue to help him get back with Bai Yu as how he helped him three years ago. Then they decided to join a virtual reality game where Su Yi can meet a "Bai Yu" in the game. (They get inside the game and move like real-life, so even though they are in a game, they still can feel pain if they get hurt).
In the game, Bai Yu told Su Yi that if he lets go of YueYue then he will accept being with him, YueYue heard that. So YueYue kidnapped Bai Yu and threatened him to leave Su Yi, he tried to make a deal with Bai Yu, But Bai Yu said that he likes Su Yi now and won't make deals anymore. YueYue was looking all psycho and tried to stab Bai Yu, then Su Yi came in and told him to stop, YueYue dropped the knife, Bai Yu took it and stabbed YueYue. Bai Yu told Su Yi that YueYue was threatening him to leave Su Yi as he left the place. Su Yi didn't seem to listen and told YueYue after he gets treated, he won't leave him anymore.
It turned out that it was planned by Bai Yu and YueYue's sister to get Su Yi with YueYue. Since YueYue's sister helped Bai to get with the person he likes, they became bff, and Bai Yu wanted to return the favor.
But even though, it doesn't seem sincere and just weird, the fact that Su Yi started to think he likes YueYue only after he got stabbed. That can also mean that Su Yi would decided to go with Bai Yu if he was the one who got stabbed. Anyways, well I guess its a happy ending that the main leads git together (YueYue and Su Yi). I just didn't feel the sincerity, how magically Su Yi starts to like YueYue and calls him "darling' made me cringe.
Also I have no hate against gays but being gay doesn't mean one has to act like a girl, I really dislike this stereotype. Sorry I couldn't stomach some of Su Yi's movements or actions... Plus YueYue needs to get some anger issue treatment, like seriously if he acted like how he did in the game in real life, he would be in prison already.
This movie is underrated.. people who watched it only cuz they think every movie that has a gay theme should be about cuteness and fluff.. But even though this movie has a gay theme and a few gay characters, its based on sending a message than about the fluff.. Just like a movie with straight people, that focuses on the thriller with a good plot. The characters in this movie are already gay but it focuses on the message of how a parent can do anything to save their child and so does the child to their parent. It has a good plot, and suspense, it totally surprised me. After seeing all the hot and intimate scenes, I did not expect the plot twists.
This drama is a master piece! Great acting, music, story-line, and directing. The king reminds me of the one from "The Treacherous," both were greedy, wicked, and bloody kings who abused their power, made lots of blood shed, took women from their families, and got served at last. This drama shows that morals and the people always come first. It shows how the high ranked people are greedy for power, can't be trusted and betray each other any second. While, Gil Dong and his people treat each other as brothers, care for each other, and protect each other. The people's pain didn't go unheard. Mo Ri who was betrayed and abandoned by those he cared for and served learned how to trust again, he met the right people. This drama has the most satisfying ending ever! I used to anxiously wait for the next episodes to air, that's how perfect this drama is, I hope another drama that is at least half as perfect to come soon. You will cry your eyes out but at last you will be full of laughter and smiles.
This drama is perfect! I would rewatch it many times without getting bored! It's full of romance and cuteness. Sung Hoon is so hot, and a really good actor. This drama reminds me of "Something About 1 Percent", I happened to coincidentally watch both at the same time, and noticed how both dramas have cute cartoons at the beginning, the same producer, the main lead is really good at kissing, lots of kisses, romance and cuteness, and lots of the same actors in both dramas. If you loved this drama, you should watch the other one too.
This is my second time watching this drama. I anticipate every drama or movie that Joo Ji Hoon is the main lead in, well... he was never a supporting character but always the main lead. Anyways, all his dramas and movies turn out to be really good. This drama was really cute, I liked how the crown prince was so mature, and his maturity was hot. Also, viewers of this drama should stop hating on the side characters of this drama childishly and actually put yourself in their should to see from their perspective. This drama is recommended to watch and to re-watch again and again and again...
It's a cute short drama, so it's very fast paced because its a web drama you know?? I don't know why all the complaining about it being boring or cringe worthy. That's how typical web dramas are so just learn to deal with it. The drama is only 50 minutes total and it was worth the watch.
I had high expectations for this drama but I only finished it because I didn't want to drop another drama. The scenarios are repeated again and again and again, I got tired of it. They always keep crying and complaining over the same stupid things. Always running away, and someone always causes the company to fail then they fix the problem then someone causes it to fail again then it happens again and so on. The guy from her childhood, when he grew up and tried to make her happy and take care of her, she always told him "later", "not now", "I'm busy", always gave no damn about him but when he got tired and finally left, then she remembered that he finally existed? The main leads talk to each other like five year olds, and always acting dramatically as if they are Romeo and Juliet where they can't be together just because the step-sister had a young crush on him. The step-sister always complaining and acting like a baby, no really a baby! Seriously childish. I forced my self to watch it. I can't tell you not to watch it, you try it for yourself.
I love it! The character of the main lead and how much he trusted the female lead despite all the secrets she hid from him makes me love him. He might seem cold-hearted but he is really affectionate to the ones he loves. I loved how the female lead decided to stay loyal to him, the male lead saw the good side of the female lead and fell in love. I loved everything about this drama but I do not want to spoil it. I never usually write reviews even though I watch lots of dramas, but I really wanted to recommend this drama. This is one of the dramas where I want to watch it again.
This movie is so stress relieving, it makes you laugh a lot and has lots of humor. Usually historical dramas and movies have lots of killing and blood shed but this movie has no blood shed at all.
I'm glad I didn't pass this drama. Another great drama of Joo Ji Hoon's. It's a heart drenching drama. The plot twists surprised me many times. I really recommend this drama, do not give up after watching a few episodes and leave with regret.
