Regular days: lets betray zhou yichen hard days: lets save yichen

This drama is by far the best fantasy drama of 2024. It is for a little mature, humour loving, sarcastic, emo, philosophical and slow burn loving type of people. People who actually don't give a shit about anything are really gonna love this series. It is so deep and gloomy yet so funny and hilarious. The writers used a ancient fantasy world but introduced some gen z type of jokes. Nobody is trying to be serious here. At the same time all of them have such mature thinking that they don't bow down to useless plots and if they are stubborn they are stubborn and they admit that.

Ok here some cons to be fair:
1. Over use of makeup and in alot of scenes we can see eggshell white colored base on face while the skin colored neck so it was annoying.
Also they put too much makeup on yichen character that he almost started to look like a wax doll.
2. The over use of tears like they really be putting 60 gallons of glycerine in their eyes like come on specially yichen and wen xiao crying in every single episode. Come on dude u showed such a tough character who can never be manipulated yet you choose to make him cry in every episode. Shut up.
3. High pitched screaming of the timid kiddo. It really hurt my ears. And also the rap song in ancient drama at fist it looked so cliche but then it weirdly grow on me like wo shi shu aaa.....

All of them just trust each other and they have such mature bond that they understand most of the time.

The best part of the drama lies in slow and deep voice talks that explains 90% of the story but the play of words is very beautifully played here. Alot of mature audience will definitely gonna like this style.

Cinematography is top notch and we don't even need to explain that. The scenery is even tough dark but still beautiful. The theme of black and dark colors have used so beautifully here. The makeup and costumes are super heavy and the play of eyes is so prominent and intriguing.

Director really played with our emotions by always putting every single character through such heavy life taking moments that we were always in a panic that thier is going to be someone die. But at the end when some characters actually die it was totally unexpected and uncalled for.

For me, tian jui ru give us the exceptional performance. Even though everyone performance and visuals were phenomenal but zhou yichen really took 4 out of 9 lives from us. I really started this drama because of him and he served. The villain also served, one of the sexiest villain he really was collecting every character. The little kiddo really showed us 50 shades of emotions by being the most dumb to the most dangerous person like it was a rollercoaster.

The main lead also showed emotions really well. He was a pookie in all the episodes. He also really served bl with yichen and we eat it up. We eat it up.

I suggest u to watch it will be very interesting to see.

People who liked my journey to you or the sleuth of ming dynasty will definitely like this. The wonderland of love also have same vibes where 90% of the plot revolve around talking and scheming.

Good start, wobbly ending without explanation

So basically its a good show if u are not a too much fan of k dramas. Like u haven't watched alot of k dramas before. I have only watched 3,4 kdramas but i was still bored and i realized that it has alot of same old stories and they even copy goblins scenes. Even a child can tell.

So basically fl and ml was hella beautiful. Super classy and cute. Only good thing about drama.

I have alot of questions like why the hell the grannys childs become so evil for no reason and adopted daughter wasn't? Why the hell granny prefers and loves her adopted child more then her 1 and only grandson. I totally agree that she has beef with his son but why with her grandson? His grandson didn't even done anything wrong. And nah don't tell me she hated him for wrong doings but wait she was cold and oblivious to her even in the 1 episode. Her adopted daughter and her grandson was of same age but she keep on acting like he doesn't even exist and fancy fl like what. Granny, aunt and even dohee which were all super powerful, rich, educated, clever and CEOs yet everyone was unable to see all the abuse noh do gyoun go through. That is so unnecessary. I feel so wrong about that kid. He was the youngest of all and yet he has to have such tragic life as well as death too.

So the main villain said he was a sinner even before he committed any crime. We didn't get to explore that part. In the end V get visions of his mother but not his own son which he brutally assaulted and mutilated for no reason. It should have been included.

Now coming to plot like it was same as goblin. He dies to save her then she wished to see him and he appears.

The god was way too comfortable living in human world. Come on god, don't u have anything to do? The sister was way to useless and didn't even contributed to the plots was only there to bring comedy. The assistants was there to give 2nd hand embarrassment with cringe romance. I like how jin star give up being a villain after 1 attempt. The overly protective ju soek hyuen also gives up after 1 attempt. Not even a single crazy plot twist. Even the past lives were unnecessary only bring the issue about Catholic beliefs. like what. They literally showed the villains in the very first episode. And in a well developed, well educated, work orientated country like korea, there is a demon living happily and telling every other person about his identity so easily and everyone is believing him like its very common.

Overall I watched all the drama (skipped some useless romantic scenes) and i was impressed at firt some episodes but then it went 👇. But i completed anyway cause leads were way too handsome and pretty to skip.

A silent world is not a sad world

Ahhhh! Such a slow burn, coping, sweet and selfless story.

It gives such a huge understanding about the people that suffer hearing loss. They all tries to help him cope and they all love him.

It is natural for a person to think that his disabilities can make everyone around him suffer but the only thing that makes human suffer is the pain of losing someone.

The story is such a cute one where everyone was trying to understand eachother feelings. I saw the drama beacuse I liked the minato visuals but damn the story was way to good. I loved how everyone tried to adjust to each other just beacuse beacuse of their friendships.

I hope everyone in real life was as understandable as the characters in this drama.

You must not fall in love

Omg this drama was so dark it almost tainted my heart. First of all i think you really need to like dark psychology or you should have to be intelligent to grip the plots of this drama. Everyone in this drama is smarter then other. Its like an endless war of how to act and react in every single situation. Everyone is very cunning but at the end of the day everyone had a heart. It showed the endless battle for freedom.

Alot of us actually missed some key points regarding the ending Because noway from the start i was expecting a happy ending. The drama was meant to left incomplete. As we all know ziyu always wished to have a life outside of the gong residence. Meanwhile it was already revealed that there are only 4 wangs and 2 Liang leaders so obviously wushang is not completely shut.

The purpose of drama was to never show an unrealistic ending where there is forever peace. Instead to show the understanding for wushang people that they can choose to be happy. And gong people that not everyone in wushang deserves to die. It also showed how every single character came out of their dilemma and fight to achieve what they wanted. It really showed how all of them can go though sunset and wait for our sun rise. It also showed no matter how cruel and cold blooded you are, you are still a human and it still hurts to be a human.

I am eager to see season 2.

I am not the orphan you are!

Ahhh, it was a slow burn. I got so much emotional so quickly.

The historical factor was way too good. It showed so much raw emotions of youth. Alot of times I keep saying that that youth was straight up idiot. But now that I look back i realized that this very situation is true. We always says that we should protect ourselves no matter what but when we actually gets to that situation we don't think about ourselves but we actually think about our loved ones.

I belongs from Pakistan and I remember, I was in a situation when i was just a kid myself someone tried to do a terrorist attack on my school. At that time i forget who was i and i just run to save my brother too even though there was a (potential) bomb in the building i run to save my brother. Now that i look back there were so many people there to save my brother but I still couldn't stop myself.

I like how hee tae mother was afraid that he would hate him since she was not his mother. I also liked the way that how his father was too brutal but it hurt him so much when his own son got shot or dragged into investigation.

Every single time a country gets into some situations it becomes so horrifying for everyone to just do the unthinkable like the police man doesn't wanted the civilians to die but end up dying himself. There were people in military who never wanted to kill but was ordered.

Hee tae character was so well written, it was so close to real life, he was a person who was realistic i liked how he down play everything that come his way. It was a good story overall.
Soo Royeon was such a brave and good lady. Her family was the definition of good family.

It didn't show emotions of just 1 person but showed emotions of a whole nation that went through that may. The youth of may was irrational but wasn't heartless.

I can only continue walking forward

Yes it was Great watching it specially the story building and and character building was so good accurate and every single thing in this drama was super good. It make me more sure that one should never think about committing crimes such as killing or suicide. Both can be very dangerous. But the fact they all somehow resolved there 1000 year old beef and tried to be together is so cute. They didn't only focus on main lead but also support lead. I also wanted to see dok hwa getting married or having rebirth with them too. I didn't expected to have such a plot like i was thinking dok hwa is going to be someone bad but it turns out he was not. It was so cute and lovely to have them see together again.

Best drama for women, understanding couple, forgiving nature.

I am very pleased after watching this drama, It doesn't show emotion of 1 character. it tells collective stories of all the characters and in a very raw, unfiltered, and natural way.

I also doesn't show super powerful villain or hero but rather show how they use their brains and even lie and trick to win the battles. The plots were not like alien attacks or supernatural infact they were exactly what you would expect from a historical drama like war, politics, society, and all these small social issues.

My only thing that i wanted to see was the highschool reunion of drinking wine of jisung that they promised in early episodes. Every Time jisung visit his hometown i was expecting the reunion from his best buddy but it never happened i was expecting it at the last episode too. His friends sacrificed so much for him i really wanted them to see each other again sometime.

But it was so good it has sorrow but still understandable. i cried alot but also enjoyed every single episode. There wasn't a single episode i ever wanted to skip. Thank you to actors, producers and writers for bringing this to light.

No crazy or sad ending thank god. Jisung and ye acting was good according to roles. Yuru was also good.

Under power, relations are bound to be broken

So, first of all i agree by the people who are saying Zhang ling he doesn't get much screen time is true. He is such a great actor in this drama his acting was very good his visuals was very pretty and sexy. The married couples bickering, cute moments, and the steamy scenes were so so much good but my complain here is they were very short lived and left us craving for more.

I even noticed that the male lead often got ignored or invalidate in so many scenes. And us as audience was not ready. He even got stabbed in fields and the princess just asked him to go after bickering. Its like he was the original victim. He helped everyone in so many matters but he always become sidelined in so many situations.

And what was wrong with writers and producers? They tried so hard to convince us that SML is innocent. But he was not innocent.

Cute, goofy and cringe but just for fun

It has very cute actors but a lot of second hand embarrassment moments. Everyone is so goofy it looks like some gen z author wrote this story. But somehow its funny and entertaining so its good for binge watch.

I really like our itsy bitsy cutsey male character... The designer was also on crack or some shit cuz he used neon color and stuffed toys. Like come on its just way too oblivious. But still its funny. Another thing I noticed is that some of the props keeps on changing either their size or shape. They legit used a key chain as a token of love lol. Jewelry was cute. Overalls it was so gen z coded like its so cringe that it is actually funny and interesting lol...

Dying wasn't even an option, they weren't afraid of dying, they were afraid of being abandoned

This story was very unique. I will not make very long review but the overall concept revolve around
1. Society was afraid to live in a new change.
2. People were afraid to be be abandoned and unloved

The reality was humans were afraid of being a monster. But they were also afraid of being alone. The sweet home family on the other hand understood very early that monsters can behave like humans if they can overcome their fears. Sadly it took forever for the whole world to actually understand this. At the end they embrace neo humans and avoid being monsters.

I really liked eun hyuk character like from the start he was trying to do the good things but everyone ultimately called him a heartless person. Even at the end he wanted to sacrifice himself instead of hyun su. I think it since all of them were young they were good at expressing themselves. And eun hyuk was caught up in all of this. Admit it or not it was his words who kept everyone alive.

Btw the bus scene really showed bl vibes like the fight, bickering but still sitting so close to each other.

At the end it happened as it was predicted

Drama is so cool...

Videography, CGI, fights, songs are way too good... Trust me its a piece of art in the world of CGI....

The story was very predictable but it was refined and it pretty much have alot of things explained. The way they explained everything in full circle is very good.

It also have philosophical touch like both male and female lead were always not thinking straight but at some point they finally started to see the full reality and accept that they were both are loved specially the male lead changed alot. His acting was on point. And his smirk was very attractive. Fl also showed anger so well like her acting is something.

2nd male lead sacrifice in both lifes were so precious but in the end he messed up a little but still understandable but 2nd fl was so evil but she also become good at the end.

3rd leads were so pretty so cute and so innocent i can't believe they will perform this good.

But china is above and beyond with CGI. I have seen good dramas with bad CGI so it was a refreshment.

Btw ML not only got tortured but also got sedated and Ra**ed by FL. And u can't change my mind 😂.

It is heavy when you carry everything at once

It is japan off course it is going to be a cute drama.

It shows how we all give up on our jobs beacuse we all fails sometime. But the important thing is we should always try one more time.

Its not very high budget drama, the visuals are just ok not bad but not the best. The story is also kind of weird like student hitting on teacher. But i mainly watched it for my boy dan cause i just love his visuals. And for sure he served. His cold attitude was so good and his acting was also good.

Overall the struggles of boy band in the drama was highlighted but they did it well alot of times.

Very good plot and explainable storyline

It was very good throughout the drama i really enjoyed everything. Story was good. I skip like 4, 5 scenes. The actors was good it show emotions right but i didn't like the ending unless there is another season I am not fully satisfied with the ending. I have wanted more since it lost its main theme in the very last episode. I like how they do not turned friends into enemy at last moment as i have seen in some dramas and i was hell sure that they are going to do that but thank god they didn't but then it was unfair for the main leads so it make me regret at end however everything was making sense so i just accept the ending. They explained everything in the movie so you would not like when did that happened and how the happened. Give it a watch.

Even so, you should live!

Trust me it is such a beautiful drama. The bad thing is, it is way too heavy to watch. It straight up pull strings of your heart with all the harsh realities of the world.

It will make you realise that the world is not bad beacuse of "today". It does also makes us realise that "those who commit suicide are the ones who wanted to live so badly".

The fact that this drama doesn't have any actual villains but it was just the society and the trails we have to go through just to live. It was also very true that the "pain is the essence of life" we should live beacuse the weather is nice today.

It leaves a deep scar into us during each episode but will also give us hope that those who done wrong are the ones that will for sure suffer in one way or the other. I also trust this reality. South Korea and anyone who wants to give up on his life should have a strong belief in destiny and karma. Trust the universe and it will answer your prayers.

Suicide is never the option its just a escape from today but not forever. So please don't give up on your loved one's. Dont leave them just beacuse you have it hard.

It also highlights the fact that it is so difficult to control your own emotions sometimes. It highlights the hypocrisy of a human rage, resentment and anger that he is willing to kill, sacrifice or die just for his pride and ego.

All the grim reapers in the drama was in punishment because they let their rage consume them and regretted it for an eternity.

Best drama

A spirit who settles grudges

Ahhh this is the best drama trust me. If you have watched goblin, death game or tomorrow. You sure are going to love it. For me it was very good. It has fun elements it was so so emotional like u really have to cry in every episode, laugh like crazy in every episode too. It was a mix of bitter sweet. The stories were so good.

The fact that they presented social issues in the series were so good. The relationship with parents were also so good.

Its so funny because yook song was just suffering in this drama and was neglected in goblin too. But his character was so kind humble and patient in the whole series.
