The main plot basically ends in episode 17, and after that, it felt like we suddenly entered season 2 with a completely different conflict. Honestly, I lost all interest at that point.
Yes, the male lead is a poorly written character - easily one of the drama’s biggest flaws. Another issue I had was with how the main conflict wrapped up.
The Art of Seduction (2005) - animated bomb drop Yumi's Cells Season 2 - ep 12 My Father Is Strange - An Yung Hui "drops a bomb" on Byun Han Soo in ep 6 (it's named like that in ep 13) Head over Heels (2025) - ep 7 Nice Witch - ep 20 ("dropping a bomb" in conversation) Hotel King - "bomb dropped" about the ML's father - eps 6, ep 23
If this was meant to be a romantic comedy, they probably should’ve added a laugh track - at least then we’d know which scenes were supposed to be funny. Son Ye-jin’s acting felt pretty weak in this one. Honestly, not worth your time.

Just Another Pandora's Box (2010) - character travels in time to the Three Kingdoms period. Three Kingdoms lasted from 220 to 280 A.D. - so it is set in ancient times. So the town we see in this movie is an ancient town .
According to dictionary.cambridge.org: "ancient" is "used to refer to the period in European history from the earliest known societies to the end of the Roman Empire"
So if a story takes place before 476 A.D. then every town in it is an ancient town 🙂
Oops, I can't add anymore, so I'll just leave the titles in this comment: Missing (2024) Let's Go, JETS! From Small Town Girls to U.S. Champions?! (2017) Just Another Pandora's Box (2010) - public square
The story seemed interesting, but it also felt like an empty shell. It’s a strange movie. Honestly, I’m not sure what the message was - maybe something about how regrets over lost love can linger for a very long time.
The film is full of beautiful, vividly coloured scenes. The saturated visuals - especially of the desert - are stunning and pleasing to the eye, but they also leave behind a somewhat surreal, disconnected feeling.
The pacing is slow, but I didn’t find that to be a major issue. The real challenge was figuring out who’s who, and why there’s so much focus on a character who barely appears on screen.
I had a sip of wine, and by the end, I’d completely forgotten what the movie was about - so I had to rewatch it from the beginning 😉
The romance feelt more like an add-on - a bait to get people into theaters. The real focus is on Wah and Fly’s relationship, with Fly’s recklessness and desperate need to "be someone" driving most of the story.
I liked the overall story - each main character had an interesting arc. Honestly, Ivy Chen was the only one who truly moved me with her performance. Her scenes stood out the most. Ethan Juan and Mark Chao also did a solid job in their roles.
Another issue I had was with how the main conflict wrapped up.

The story is simple but soon gets wild and is definitely fun to watch.

I don't care that it's an erotic low quality bullsh*t film.
Where to watch? xD
