• The lane where they rode the horse together seems pretty similar to the Joon Sang-Yoo Jin's lane in Winter Sonata. I suspect Nami Island?
  I like her better as Sae Wa and the Joseon story continues to draw me to keep on watching. Glad that she has toned down a bit her antics as Shim Chung.

• I will watch again this drama if it will break 20% rating.

• Can we please have the story line switched to Joseon dynasty? LOL! I have to agree the plot and even the dressing for the two leads during Joseon dynasty was far more interesting than the present.

  Probably it's because the roles weren't so fuzzy and crazy as it was.

• The rating is on a downward trajectory as I expected. It bored me. This writer has lost her magic touch and I feel sorry for JJH. She should have choose a better script and actor in the future.

  • I think LMH is good in here. He is normally stiff in comedy but I find him really endearing as Joon Jae. The pacing is admittedly slow though. Episode 5 and nothing much progressing except for the subtle hints and clues dropped in each episode. Just need a little patience.

  • Agreed. Casting is great and I like fantasy genres. But if the storyline doesn't catch me right away, that's it. I guess my tastes just doesnt mesh with what Korean audiences are liking these days as I am enjoying weightlifting fairy much more even though it is a simpler storyline with less frills. I guess I'll tune into the next big fantasy drama Goblin. Maybe I will have better interest in this one.

  • The ratings are slightly lower than last Thursday's episode but still respectable. I don't think it's collapsing in the ratings by any means. It seems to have a steady following. Tomorrow's episode will probably remain around the same or higher. The main problem is the cast is carrying the drama and not the writing. If not for JJH and LMH I doubt this would break double digits. It's also lacking in any sort of hype. There's nothing memorable about it, and it doesn't generate a lot of discussions either.

    This writer was also not great in her last drama Producer either. Maybe KSH and JJH should have both picked other drama as their follow-up project after YFAS tbh.

• I don't care for those who don't have patience so far am liking what am seeing oooo

• It feels weird that PJE took such a long time to set the momentum for this drama and going back and forth between the Joseon and modern setting is a bit tiring. I don't understand why the pacing is slower than her usual dramas. I still enjoy the drama mainly because of the charming Joseon lovestory and LMH whom I feel performance wise is better than JJH.

• I tried until now but the story doesn't catch me and the lack of chemistry between the actors doesn't help either . Bye LOBS ! Must wait a long time before watching LMH again. Feel so sad and envious of people who are enjoying this drama .

• I'm sure this drama will get 20 percent before too long, its ratings are fairly steady. It just won't be a DotS-level hit.

• I feel there's much more chemistry between the otp during Joseon era while i find sth missing in the modern story which is just too silly sometimes..
  I'm still not sure about the plot. It's like the writer has the general first idea but don't know how to develop from it. For now i'd continue to watch for the Joseon story.

• Am enjoying this drama so far and totally agree with you, Koala.
