not everyone's cup of tea
It wouldve been a good series except it wasnt (for me). not a hater because i looked forward to watching this since its hyped. the story started slow. i had to endure 2 whole episodes just so it could get me going but ended up putting it in 1.25 speed then 1.5. i got tired of all the cooking show down (i think the only best one was with the Ming cooks) and unending side comments of villains but u know theyre just gonna turn around and like her dishes. Romantic moments are so predictable. cant directors think of anything new?! i hated Yoona's character being winny and loud to the point that its not realistic for someone who got lost in another timeline. theyre trying so hard for her character to be funny but its just so frustrating. The last 2 episodes are dragging and unrealistic. imagine killing each other then sit down together to talk about things. this is the 2nd time i've watched a series in 1.5 speed, even pushing the fast forward button more than 30x. i'd just give the acting a higher rating specially Lee ChaMin. no hate for the actors/actresses, but its just how the series was directed. if directors want a series portraying something light and funny (where Yoona's character fit) then stick to that even if its Joseon era setting - no killings, no heavy drama or revenge or anything, but if its something a bit more realistic, then it shouldve been like that where all the historical dramas fit. its just like directors couldnt make up their minds and tried to throw in everything in it but didnt work.
