Oh wow. Lee Shi Eun's kids are amazing. I gave the confrontation with the dad a standing ovation. I knew it was going to be good when the kids talked before the parents home but it surpassed my expectations. The professor is absolute garbage and I hope he steps on dog shit for the rest of his pathetic life. He really pulled out the "all men are the same" card after trying to blame his cheating on his wife. Trash.
I also can't help but consider the parallels in this divorce with Sa Pi Young's parents'. She was so devoted to her father that she keeps blaming her mother even when the man cheated on her, but Shi Eun's kids are firmly on their mother's side. Is it because Shi Eun was a "better" wife and mother? I like examining these things in my head.
Finally, I wish Hye Ryung would just get a divorce. Once your relationship starts sending you to the hospital, that's more than a sign that it's time to give up. I can't imagine what bringing a child into that marriage will do too.
(Still don't know why we have to care about those random women and I wish they'd get to their point sooner rather than later.)
I cannot believe this show still has me screaming after 16 episodes! I started saying she must be pregnant when the wine she spent a month brewing didn't hit the spot but I still screamed so loudly when the doctor confirmed it! Bong Hwan, you're gonna be a dad lol!
I don't know what Hwa Jin is up to now and I don't actually care. I don't even want to see her stupid face so she can go reflect on herself in a dark corner until the end of the drama. As for KBI, he's so deep in his feelings about how he's entitled to So Yong that he will happily destroy her just so the king doesn't get to be happy with her. I just hope he destroys himself along the way before he can ruin So Bong's plans for world domination.
One of my best moments in ep 16 was the Grand Queen Dowager realising her toner was finished but knowing she couldn't ask So Yong to make more. I laughed so loud. I still kinda like her even though she's a totally horrid person, and her maid is hilarious.
I knew Dong Mi was sus but damn. I did not see the end of ep 4 coming at all. I feel so bad for the old doctor cos he loved her so much. I think she may have designs on her step son but I don't know yet if he is an active participant.
The lawyer is a scumbag for acting like his decided not to have kids after they got married without his input. He knew her entire deal beforehand and still married her but now he's cheating and he can't even decide if it's cos she doesn't want children, or he doesn't love her anymore or cos she's too self centered. He's just an asshole who cheated on his wife because he could.
I'm also really intrigued by the engineer too. I wonder if the writer will eventually leave the professor and maybe date the engineer on her way to freedom.
This show still has my interest so I'll keep going even if it's just to see how it all plays out. Also, don't really care about those other 3 women. Idc if they're the mistresses brought together by fate or just random strangers. I'd rather they became relevant now or just stop taking up scenes that could go to characters I actually care about, like the kids. I love all the kids so far, especially the little girl.
The fact that the king's brother keeps going on and on about the king forgetting their mission because of So Yong, and yet he didn't hesitate when it came to betraying the king for Hwa Jin... I couldn't roll my eyes hard enough (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ
I also think it's interesting that So Yong didn't tell the king about Hwa Jin giving the ledger to the Queen Dowager. I wonder if she never plans to or if she's keeping that for later. Knowing how scatterbrained she is though, I'm sure she's moved on from that already. We know the prince definitely won't be the one to tell on Hwa Jin since he's too busy simping for her.
I'm very excited to see how things play out in the palace now that everyone has picked a corner.
Dam Hyang was really the saviour of the day. That little girl is so smart and so brave. I also cannot believe the level of her hand/eye coordination! She'd make a fantastic basketball player
Someone needs to tell Hwa Jin that she is merely a part of a growing harem and she can have several seats while the king and queen sort themselves out (눈‸눈)
Can't believe this drama just manages to get better and more exciting with every episode!When they announced it…
Same! At first I was so panicked at the thought of 20 episodes and each one over an hour long! But now I'm looking at how many we have left and I'm already sad cos I can see the end looming. Lol.
I honestly can't believe I'm still having this much fun 14 episodes in! This show is such an awesome blend of comedy & intrigue that I am hooked from start to finish and I always end every episode longing for more. Each time I want to scream at Bong Hwan/So Yong for being so obtuse, she does something wonderful. Ep 14 was no exception. I can't wait to see what happens in the royal court with the king and queen finally getting on the same page.
Also, the fact that now everyone wants to murder So Yong except the king is just hilarious to me considering where they started. From the preview for ep 15, maybe the king can add eating ramyeon to his special dictionary.
Lin Xiang An is pathetic but he knows that Ming Zhe doesn't love Su Mo and that she is just lost in her delusion.…
Su Mo is so deep in her delusion it's a wonder she can have any kind of functional life!
I need Ran Ran to start seeing what's happening around her and stop blindly trusting people like Chen Luo. It's so frustrating! With only 11 episodes to go, there's just so much drama waiting to explode all at once lol
I'm going to need Ran Ran to start making better choices. I don't want to also be disappointed in her when everyone else is already on my last nerve. They've shown us that she's very smart and capable so I don't understand why she's so naive when it comes to certain things. I guess her trusting personality and purity are meant to be her biggest draw but I just don't want to see her getting hurt again.
On a positive note, I'm really enjoying how natural the relationship between Ran Ran and Ming Zhe feels. They really compliment each other and it's really the only thing keeping me here every episode.
Hilarious first episode! I didn't think I was going to be laughing this hard but Shin Hye Sun is just an amazing comedic actress. I'm looking forward to seeing how the mystery unfolds. I kinda wish we knew what was going on with his body in the future too. I guess he's in a coma but it would be doubly hilarious if it was a total switch.
Su Mo is exhausting. Almost as exhausting as Lin Xiang An. They really deserve each other. I just wish someone would tell Ran Ran about Su Mo's relationship with Ming Zhe already. It's dragging out for way too long and it's tiresome. As for Chen Luo... I don't even have words for his level of stupid.
I dropped this at ep12 and after seeing the way the story unfolded (completely predictable), I'm glad I didn't spend any more time on it. It started off so well and I liked all the actors, but the lack of character development for the leads (especially NDS), and the numerous plot holes just ruined it for me, I wanted to be able to love this show until the end but all I got out of it was an appreciation for KSH as an actor. Also, if the comments section is more entertaining than the drama, something is very, very wrong. Rating this a 5/10 because of the production quality and the acting.
I just feel like this drama was not quite as smart or competent as it wanted me to think it was, and I wish they had just chosen one thread to follow to the end. The storytelling was a mess and left you feeling like you missed a lot, but in fact, they just didn't tell you anything.
I gave this 8/10 because of all the joy it gave me before the last episode. I wish they had figured out a better way to end it. Ra Ra did not deserve all that pain after everything she went through already. I'm just gonna pretend that ridiculousness never happened.
I think I've gotten as much as I can out of this drama. I can pretty much already see how the last 4 eps will unfold, and I'm not willing to invest any more time. I just hope HJP finds a way to be happy in the end.
The comments section is truly more entertaining than the drama! LMAO.
I feel bad for SST cos the big company used a tried and trusted technique of blinding them with the buyout money, to the extent that even SDM abandoned her common sense. This outcome was so predictable especially for the members of the team like Sa Ha and Dal Mi who immediately become redundant in a larger pool. I can see HJP trying to learn from the past now, so I hope the others will also learn from this experience.
I am also so disappointed in the waste of Dal Mi's sister! I cannot believe their mother has had an entire arc in these 11 eps and In Jae has just been in the same spot when the entire show kicked off with their sibling rivalry. How can they salvage this and not have it feel forced and rushed? Time jumps can only do so much!
I also can't help but consider the parallels in this divorce with Sa Pi Young's parents'. She was so devoted to her father that she keeps blaming her mother even when the man cheated on her, but Shi Eun's kids are firmly on their mother's side. Is it because Shi Eun was a "better" wife and mother? I like examining these things in my head.
Finally, I wish Hye Ryung would just get a divorce. Once your relationship starts sending you to the hospital, that's more than a sign that it's time to give up. I can't imagine what bringing a child into that marriage will do too.
