My Dearest people go watch this show!

‏‪“‬My Dearest” is a historical drama that reignites the passion for the genre. With its well-crafted script, exceptional acting, and stunning visuals, it offers an immersive and emotionally satisfying experience‪.‬
‏For fans of historical dramas as myself, it is a long-awaited gem. It successfully evokes genuine emotions, and made me feel deeply engaged with the story. The script seamlessly combines historical events with personal journeys, resulting in a thought-provoking and impactful viewing experience‪.‬

‏Visually, is a feast for the eyes. The series boasts stunning visual locations that transport viewers back in time. every frame is meticulously crafted to create an immersive atmosphere, from beautiful landscape over the sunset to the horrific battlefield‪.‬ Furthermore, the brilliant script, combined whit a beautifully composed soundtrack, made me truly wonder what flower sounds like.

‏One of the standout elements of the series is its remarkable portrayal of a likable yet spoiled brat female lead. It's no easy task to create a character that falls into this archetype, but Aha Eun Jin delivers a fantastic performance, bringing depth and charm to her portrayal. Despite her flaws, viewers can't help but adore the playful yet not childish character she embodies. Her journey as a most desirable black sheep in a small village, chasing her surrealistic dreams of finding the perfect man, adds an interesting dynamic to the series with the right balance between immaturity and maturity. Right from the start, brief discussion with her and a bird only proves that she is far from being Snow White and not a typical traditional woman of her time. Her character's unorthodox and sometimes foolish strategies, such as her skimming, add a touch of humor and unpredictability to the narrative. Eun Jin's performance successfully captures the essence of the character, making me root for her even when her decisions seem questionable‪.‬
‏Namkoong Min, on the other hand, is the perfect choice to play the easygoing man who doesn't take life too seriously. His character's laid-back nature and ability to match the female lead's unorthodox personality create an engaging dynamic on screen. The chemistry between them is palpable, and watching two similar individuals with distinct personalities argue is always amusing. The series leverages the strengths of its actors to bring these comedic and relatable moments to life, adding a lighthearted touch to the overall dark and sad narrative of the war‪.‬

As the story unfolds, we can truly understand the meaning of loyalty and love. Cheesy as it may sound, they should come to realize that those things are right in front of them.

I should lower my expectations but I simply can’t

Arthdal Chronicles is an exceptional fantasy masterpiece that stands out for its pure fantasy elements. The show is so unique and full of details which even some of novel based drama do not possess.

Now, let's address the elephant in the room - the absence of some of the original cast members. I understand the disappointment that may arise from this, as I myself didn't have high expectations for a show that had to navigate such a challenging situation. However, this time is different. How can I truly be saddened when one of Korea's gems is returning to portray a character in a historical drama? Lee Joon Gi, not only being a talented and sensitive actor, is the perfect choice to embody the war machine we anticipate seeing on screen. War is coming and Lee Joon Gi's coming back! When it comes to Shin Se Kyung's portrayal of Tan Ya in Arthdal Chronicles, there is no need to worry. Her previous collaboration with the writers in "Six Flying Dragons" should alleviate any concerns about her portrayal of Tan Ya in Arthdal Chronicles. However, it is worth noting that Tan Ya may have been perceived as the least interesting character among the main five at least in my perception. The hope is that her character will become more productive and have a greater impact on the story, moving away from repetitive interactions such as constantly calling EunSeom as her savior or trying to save a trib that actually is not interested to be saved.

One of the most thrilling aspects I have observed in the upcoming Arthdal Chronicles is the custom design. While I am not a fashion expert, the show's outfit choices have left me somewhat puzzled. It was challenging to discern whether it was set during winter or summer, if the weather was cold or warm, or if the setting was reminiscent of Greece or medieval England. Additionally, I yearned for the inclusion of the distinctive Asian style that I love seeing in Korean dramas. Fortunately, the production spared no expense in enlisting the talented Cho Sang Kyung, known for their iconic costume design in shows like 'Squid Game' and 'It's Okay to Not Be Okay'. With their expertise, it is already clear from the photos that the costume design in future episodes of Arthdal Chronicles will become more cohesive and representative of a specific time and place. Their involvement brings anticipation for a more visually striking and culturally resonant aesthetic in the show.

Indeed, when it comes to our opinions and preferences, we often love to hate and hate to love. Despite any criticisms or frustrations, there is still an underlying love and passion for the series that keeps us engaged.
