I know I can’t be the only one who was watching The King last weekend and wondering if I was too stupid to understand the show’s grand logic, or if the show is just… daft. Is there a way I can go in and rescue my Kim Go-eun from this tyrannical maniac?

    It’s daft. I have not been able to watch past ep 10, but I heard it gets better. Don’t tell me it still remains daft

      You know, it gets marginally better for exactly two episodes (11 & 12) – mostly because of evil Kim Go-eun doppleganger – but then it goes right back to worshiping at the alter of Lee Gon, and sense goes flying out of the window.

    I’m pretty sure I had the Math Lady Meme face on the whole episode. And yet somehow it doesn’t feel like I’m the dumb one. It’s the show.

    Maybe the show is so extra [insert your choice of adjective], it needs to be shown in the parallel world instead of ours.

    I’m reserving final judgement until the end, but I’m leaning toward daft. It’s made me laugh almost as much as Vagabond.
