      The Princess and the Soldier are truly the best 2nd Couple ever! They deserved a spin-off of their own!
      Closely followed by Park Hyung Sik & Lim Ji Yeon as 2nd Couple in High Society

          the show itself was all right. lots of frustrating moments and lag in the main story plotline and its main leads. I stayed mostly for the 2nd Couple and actually rewatched all the scenes with JUST them. lol

Super late but did anyone else strongly dislike Da In in Plus Nine Boys? How can someone do literally the same thing ten years later??

Please suggest as MANY sugary sweet, low on plot dramas (i.e., Weightlifting Fairy, Strongest Deliveryman, 9 endings, etc.) as possible, thanks!

        Haahaah Louis is too adorable to be compared to WoF but yup Winner Over Flowers was a real sweet show! It was hilarious yet with a lot of heart! Classic Na PD show with Winner boys’ own personal charm! 💙

      I’m a huge fan of A Love So Beautiful. Have you seen JoJo’s World? I strategically skipped through a few episodes (courtesy of Netflix synopses) and, done that way, it’s a perfectly light and frothy little show.

Why does Love Alert feel so heavy? The drama takes itself way to seriously.

I watch Where Stars Land with a clinched jaw because the way they view prosthesis is downright cringe -worthy at times.

Shancai, in the newest Meteor Garden, is annoying and makes me question why any of them hang out with her.

Admittedly, I think my own cultural experience is preventing me from enjoying Where Stars Land…that and the villain has a weak motive.

    The villain is poorly written, I don’t understand why they hire LDG for that, such waste of talent (and money?). They better hire lesser actor.

Am I the only person who was left feeling underwhelmed by the end of 100 Days?

    While overall I enjoyed the drama and the OTP, I agree that the ending was underwhelming. It seems like the writer just ran out of ideas and suddenly introduced noble idiocy for the main pair as plot device to kill time. Unfortunately, the writers couldn’t even come up with a valid reason for her noble idiocy and it made it seem that Hong Shim didn’t really care for Yul, especially when she in fact selected Jae Yoon as her husband over Yul. It was a good thing for Hong Shim that Yul remained steadfast as she as she certainly gave him zero reason to believe she cared at all for him over the last couple episodes first when she refused to say she loved him, second when she left him and finally she when she went so far as choosing another man over him.

    Also, the final showdown between Yul and Kim Cha Eon wasn’t very gripping but then the shows strength was never the palace politics so I wasn’t too upset that it didn’t drag on.

    I wasn’t surprised by the endings given to the Crown Princess or Moo Yeon. I actually didn’t care what happened to the Crown Princess but would have liked for Moo Yeon to have survived. And were we to think that Prince Seowon was still pursuing her even when she is in exile. I could understand them showing us that Yul once again allowed the Crown Princess to survive we could have been shown her living in exile without the scene including Prince Seowon.

      ALL OF THIS!! Just everything you said plus…

      The war seemed very manufactured. Did I miss all the machinations and build? Or was it just me not caring? It was like the PD just had budget to spend and decided what we need is a war scene….um, okay.

      I wasn’t ever on Team Moo Yeon and, quite frankly, I thought he would have died sooner and Crown Princess would have miscarried. They both presented way too many challenges for the Crown Prince.

        Because the writer wanted to play the guessing game of “whose the father of the Crown Princess’ baby”, all of the interactions between the Crown Princess and Moo Yeon were not properly shown (Moo Yeon was alway too subservient towards the Crown Princess to be the father of her child) nor developed (resulting in me never caring for or rooting for their happiness). I actually thought of the two, the Crown Princess deserved death more than Moo Yeon as she was as much of a cold blooded killer as her father.

    Nope…same for me…underwhelming is the right way to describe the last episode… TT

    Yep definitely! Seeing how they had built up the tension in the last couple of episodes, I thought the final battle between yul and VP would be more intense. I don’t know whether the VP gave up on his plan, because he already had written the letter asking for leniency for his children. Then what was the point of the war? They didn’t show us the conclusion also. What happened to his cronies?
    Also the queen was suddenly shown to be just a harmless person playing ‘pranks’ on the prince. Agreed, she was never as threatening as the VP, but she still didn’t like him. Having the king brush off her tactics just like that and suddenly she’s alright with just the king’s company???

    Won’t say much about HS’s thought process, because I still don’t understand her logic and people have already said enough.

    Also what happened to the new eunuch who was two timing yul? Was very pardoned?
    Where were guard Kwon and ae wol?
    See I’ve too many complaints.
    Only thing I’m happy with- the sleazy noble park getting his comeuppance.

      I thought it was odd that the Queen was allow to continuously be alone in her room with Chief Censor Jung Sa Yeob. Certainly unrealistic for the time.

        It seemed like he had finally stopped plotting and scheming. But he was still going to the queen’s chambers. I’ve no clue about the characters motivations in the 2nd half of the episode. I think everyone just gave up.

      Honestly, 100 Days could be the pre-cursor to 7 Day Queen. Hear me out, there’s no way the King’s Council would allow Yi Suh to be queen. That’s regardless of the Crown Prince reinstating her status. Also, Little Brother Prince is still out there and able to make a play for the throne…

    No. It was lame and full of unnecessary fillers.

For those who remember when you could ONLY watch dramas on Netflix (handful), DF, and pirated sites, does the end of DF feel like your returning to your roots (or back to basics) in in some way?

    Yes, it kind of does. I watched my first drama on Netflix and then somehow discovered DF and never looked back. Then I found Viki and DramaBeans and life was good.
    Finally, I could understand more about the dramas on DB.
    But it all really started with DF.
    sigh… the end of an era for sure. 🙁

      It was mention on the series that she was well compensated for her position. She was able to live on her own, put her sisters through school and pay off her father’s debt within nine years.
