Didn’t Love It
Spoilers
Perhaps I am an anomaly, but I’m not in love with this.
Like Lee Joon Gi’s masterful acting job in Moon Lovers, this is certainly a tour de force performance by Lee Junho, who is incredibly impressive in this role. However, like ML, I don’t like this show.
(Side note: It’s rather mind boggling that Korea continues to turn out fabulous actors who were K-poppers! 🤯)
With all that said, I wasn’t in love with the actress. She was good but not on par with Junho and the script made me want to spit nails, at times.
Yes, it did have some pretty humorous, laugh out loud moments and had a well paced beginning, but in the middle it began to get bogged down. Around Episodes 9-14, I fast forwarded a lot of running around, fighting etc. with no dialogue, just to get through it.
Disclosure: I hate stories with multiple wives.
That the ML would go to another woman BEFORE going to the woman he has just discovered is carrying his child, the very woman he so desperately loves and has pursued for YEARS, whom he has FINALLY won was unfathomable and quite frankly disgusting to me.
Knowing of her reservations to marry him and WHY, which she had clearly stated several times including right before she agreed to become his wife, that was simply irreconcilable in my mind.
I started watching this because so many people were chattering about it online and talking about what “a great show” it was, “wonderful, wonderful, wonderful” - and not one single person mentioned that it did not have a HEA.
I realize it’s a true story. However, I choose not to watch stories with sad endings, ie the death of one of the main characters, so I was very unhappy when I put in 16+ hours only to discover not too far into episode 17 that she dies. Yes, it did end on a somewhat more positive note than Moon Lovers in that it implies an eternity together, but that didn’t minimize the sourness of it including the FL’s death.
I am just not a person who wants a “good cry“ or wants to watch something tragic. There’s enough tragedy in the world that I want to put my watching time in watching something that gives your heart and mind a boost and leaves the end of the show feeling uplifted, not depressed.
This wasn’t it.
