Worth giving it a shot

tbh i really like this drama haha. I do agree that the ending could've been a lot better and instead of focusing more on politics, i wished they focused more on the martial arts world and also tied up loose ends. The ending made me feel like the director was telling me to read the novel's ending and see what happens next and make my own ending. So i'm sticking with the novel's ending for this one!

both yy and zls played hfbx so well in this drama, they brought they characters to life. yy and zls looked absolutely gorgeous in their costumes, and both of them definitely grew a lot as actors since the last time i watched them (absolutely loved yy in yamg and zls in dating in the kitchen!) it's also my first time seeing yy filming a wuxia drama and i am loving itttt! their on screen and off screen chemistry as well *chefs kiss* and both of them look so good together? i'm a sucker for martial arts, cool fight scenes and it's so satisfying to see both hfbx on the same level, none superior to another, supporting one another. The maturity of their rs and how they communicated was something i really liked. omg they are so CoOooooL

im enjoying the ride so far~ even though there were a lot more room for improvements. And kudos to the production team despite the whole scandal that's going on. I still really like this show, i binged watched it within a few days haha. The first half of the drama got me hooked, the fight scenes, the story flow etc. I loved how loyal hfx's people are as well and how they work together to overcome obstacles. omg not to mention the ost as well! it's definitively gna be on replay for me for the upcoming weeks! I'd definitely rewatch this drama, but i may skip all the political stuff that's going on.

I'm looking forward to both of their next projects!

It's been awhile...

Just like my headline suggests, it really has been awhile since we had such a solid kdrama in years!! I don't even remember the last time I felt so emotionally INVESTED and obsessed with a Kdrama. Sis checks twitter religiously every single day and hour for more updates lmao. I can't wait for it to end so I can finally concentrate at work HAHAHA TT but at the same time I aM super sad that its ending because when will we ever see ksh on screen again? in 3 YEARS? dude serves us a 3 course meal and then disappear like its nothing making us survive on crumbs after.

wow.. where do I start, this drama is like a breath of fresh air, it has everything! The plot itself is intriguing, literally had the whole world coming up with theories, we had doctors, lawyers, accountants all coming together to discuss the plot HAH. I am RUNNING AWAY FROM PEOPLE WHO CAME UP with the theory that hyunwoo dies at the end of this show. LIKE HELLO? nO. GET AWAY from Me.

anywho, I love how this drama brought all of us together!! This ride has been nothing but an EXPLOSIVE TREAT. The cast had already warned us during the interview that this show will have plot twist over twist over twist + case on case on case. They weren't lying when they said ep 5 was only the beginning because everything that came after that was just HELL. Had us ugly crying every ep frs. I was shocked to find out that each ep is about 1.5h long cause it doesn't even feel that long!!! also bc every ep is alluring.

The storyline to some may be mediocre, but its the storytelling that is enticing. The plot shines the harsh truth of how life after marriage would be, and in this case it may not always be a happily ever after. Miscommunications, assumptions, built up frustrations and unresolved hurts will always affect the relationship, afterall it takes two hands to clap in a rs/marriage. I like how they show the state of the contrast difference between the Hong and Baek family and how its in Baek's family that hae in feels comfortable about letting her guard down and learning to receive love. And I really love how clear baekhong's love is shown in this drama - to be loved is to be understood and known.

The ways the actors go above and beyond to make their characters come to life. Ksh and Kjw served INSANE chemistry both on screen and off screen, even I can't help but to ship them irl TT. (secretly wishing for them to pull a BinJin) The acting, the adlibs, the constant strive to do better in delivering lines and expressing emotions shows dedication to their craft. Man literally proved us once again why he is the king of ratings and one of the highest paying actor in sk! Both kjw and ksh delivered such a stellar performance, and ofc with the other casts as well, special mention to park sung hoon as eun seong cause man acted so well it made me wna PUNCH him every single time he comes on. He needs Jeon Jae Joon to teach him a lesson HAH.

As a fan of both of the main leads, I have been truly blessed by this series. And sending my heartfelt congratulations for everyone that made QOT come alive, yall truly deserved the recognition for all that hard work!! It really is a bittersweet feeling knowing that we're heading towards the finale of this drama, part of me is sad because this is the end of an amazing story, but also so happy for all the recognition and support they are all getting. I already felt the post drama syndrome kicking in at ep 14... ahha, this feeling is smth i've never felt for in such a long time. Thank you QOT, for once again reigniting my love for dramas. It really has been a traumatic ride HAHAH kdrama? no.. ktrauma.
