I liked that at the end he was also concerned about her career growth and development above his feelings, this made me really like his character plus he was hella building that chemistry with his girl once he fell for her.
There wasn’t any crazy love triangle or family intrusion in this drama . Just simple and straightforward 10 episodes of them growing to fall deeper in love .
As basic as the story line was, I would watch it again and again because it brings such good feelings.

Well laid out intriguing story line, pay attention From episode 1
Started this drama without much expectation of it being better than Goblin and i wasn't disappointed at all, its actally totally different and better, The story wasn't told the typical kdrama way, so a lot of patience is needed for unveiling its sci/fi plot plot hence its not predictive , also the romance in this drama isn't your regular girl runs foolishly after a boy for 75% of its episodes, no its pretty straight forward and matured and certainly realistic in line with the characterization of the leads, above all you will experience the most amazing chemistry ever seen in kdrama land with pure sincere romance , the story progressed with a chemistry jackpot as i have never ever seen two kdrama characters so comfortable with each other as the leads of this drama by episodes 15 .Please do not drop this drama because of some silly unsubstantiated reviews from people who had already decided to review this drama negatively because their favorite actress wasn't paired with Lee Min ho and the fact that Lee min ho was going to become more popular than their favorite internationally , their backlash and anger started upon the news of the pairing and worsened when they were shocked at how well the two leads synced with each other as the episodes progressed, these outrageous people complained about everything plus typical product placements like the drama is supposed to fund itself and they are sorely dissapointed that despite their back lash the drama retained its spot and yet they didnt drop it,that tells you how amazing and addictive this drama is and of course it has retained number 1 position in so many countries on netflix and its been number 1 on wavee a streaming platform which like Netflix in south korea, people actually prefer to watch on this platforms than via the national tv called SBS so as to rewatch it again. This drama is the only drama that is now on number 6 most watched shows on netflix in the world, and its a drama in korean language, that speaks for itself.
Re watch value is 10/10 if you loved it once you will always go back to find more clues of what you may have missed.
The story is centered around a protagonist Lee min Ho a king in the Kingdom of Corea, who is trying to restore balance that his antagonist uncle disrupted by committing treason to steal a wooden flute that has mysterious powers, he was almost murdered on the night of the treason and he was saved by someone who left an ID card of a Lieutenant played by Kim Go eun , he held on to this ID for 25 years waiting to meet his savior only to find himself mysteriously led by the flute through a maze to Republic of Korea where he meets the woman who is supposed to be his savior and falls instantly for her and she thought he was nuts because he was rambling on about how he was a king.
The story progressed deeper as we understand in a time loop by episode 15 why the king had Tae eul ID card all his life and why she fell so fast for him and how their long distance relationship across parallel universe became a sad love story for them so they always have to live in the moment when they get to see each other, and Gosh their chemistry together is sizzling as their hugs and stares alone burns the screen not to talk of the beheading kiss, this is one drama that delivers real romance progression, from being shy and awkward and blushing to plenty of clingy skinship and you will certainly think you are watching real life romance oncsreen, there stares, tears an longing gazes will tug at your heart.
Waiting for the final episode this Friday and i sincerely hope everyone gets their happy ending because the millions of this fans of this drama are clearly going to revolt as i have never seen a drama where people are so heavily invested in as The King Eternal Monarch

The story is crazy but you will find yourself watching till the end anyways
This drama as with a lot of Chinese dramas will give you a slow burn and drain you just the way the characters are drained, but you will likely not drop it when you start because you want to see what happened to them eventually.It’s basically started with a family bond story between siblings Liangsheng and Jiansheng From episodes 1-3 and love story between Jiangsheng and Tianyou from Episode 4 and the trio eventually finding themselves in a love triangle as the plot of the story begins to thicken.
Jiangsheng and Liangsheng grew up together as siblings and JS grew up to love her brother so much because he always sacrificed so much to make her happy hence creating an unforgettable childhood memory which made her forget how unfair her father treated her, so he wasn’t only a brother but he became Iike a father to her, he became her entire world when their parents died.
Liangsheng on the other hand joined their family as a traumatic Kid but his sister as little as she was did all she could to make him feel warmth and love so they both basically made their childhood beautiful together and shared a strong bond that had a blurred line between familial and romantic.
When they entered college Jiangsheng met an older guy called Tianyou a rich heir of the cheng family, he became interested in her after series of her ‘fateful’ encounters and gradually was drawn to her and became her friend, as time progressed he found out that she is the sister of the son of his aunt that he had been trying to find for several years for his grandpa in a very unfortunate incident that led to so much misunderstand that later separated them and caused so much emotional distress to all parties.
Tianyou again eventually reconciled with JS after so many years because he never forgot her and their romance started blooming , he loved her selflessly and did all he could to make her happy because of her brother Liangsheng situation , he did all he could but Jiangsheng still yearned and wanted her brother and couldn’t let go of the past, Tianyou ended up being heartbroken and almost lost his life just about when Jiangsheng Was finally able to differentiate the feeling she had for her brother was just familial love and not the the romantic type she felt for Tainyou and they ended up being separated for a long time because Tainyou became temporarily blind.
The drama keeps going on in the usual spiraling in its crazy influx of events and conspiracies to keep them apart till all parties were able to sort out their feelings.
My own evaluation based on their acting is that I am happy she is a ended with Tianyou than her brother Liangsheng who I feel loved her as a deep sense of responsibility and obligation and not passionately or as a priority in his heart because he was always distracted with weiyang and never set boundaries for her even after he knew he loved his sister, I don’t blame him for also not telling his sister her recovered his memories but the sister found it hard to forgive him for making her go through so much pain looking for him when all along he could remember .
Tianyou was clear about his actions and show of passion and love and didn’t waver that he wanted to be with her despite the huge gap and his family being against their union, he was willing to give up everything to be with her and he eventually dropped it all and left with her and even during their enforced separation when he became blind, the moment he met her in Paris as Ardou , it was still her and always her and no distraction in his heart towards other women especially Ningzin who has hoped for years he would finally see her .
Jiangsheng acted well to show she wasn’t into her brother romantically despite how much she yearned for him , he was and will always be her brother and in the end she knew the difference in the kind of love both men had for her and chose Tianyou.
Finally , Jiangsheng greatest character development was being able to finally walk away from the brotherly love shackle of LS and make her own decisions on whom to love whole fully in the future.

END OF DRAMA
My final take on the drama.
For such a drama that has us drowned in tears most of its episodes, the final happy ending was just too short, we should have seen them live at least 30 mins of the average life in that farm house together and happy with their amazing chemistry. The scenes of them being happy together was really passionate and steaming, Pel in showed us he desired and wanted to devour and possess Jin wan most of the time., so they should have given a slightly longer happy ending story line for us to ease all that sadness.
Zin xhi wasted his almost all life following and loving Jin wan to ensure she is safe and happy and he never got a happy ending or a glimpse of hope for a revived career or love for someone so dedicated and selfless to the leads.
Jiang Zhang punishment of a gunshot seems rushed and confusing as we don’t know why he was being hunted, he should have been hung on his skin for treason and made to die a slow and painful death while reflecting on how he shouldn’t have taken revenge as an option, likewise Jin zhi, her penance time was too short to pass any deep message to make anyone learn, she took the easy way out of dying with Pel in on the battle field after losing her father and child.

This drama is so real and so good that anyone planning on getting married should watch just to checklist their partners, the story was well written and acted that it leaves an indelible mark and has a rewatch value of 100/10 ?. Kehuan and Weiwei met each other thrice in one day during which time he needed to return a journal she had forgotten in a taxi to her and he became intrigued/attracted to her and wanted to ask questions as to why she had a clear cut life plan and how possible it was for her to live based on the what she wrote in the journal only to find out she was living according to her boyfriends life plan, him also being in the same type of relationship questioned why she lives her life according to someone else life plan, this opened Weiwei eyes to the flaws in her relationship and she started getting swayed because she was also strongly attracted to kechuan.
This drama was a beautiful roller coaster journey of the two main people coming out of bad relationships that seems to be good and finding themselves to able to love each other freely without the feeling of the weight of being burdened .
What I love about this drama more than the story was the lead chemistry that was so real, the sexual energy was there with the right intensity from the start till the finish, when they get together sparks fly everywhere with kechaun knowing for sure it was love more than attraction as he started to care about her more and more and Weiwei holding out because of her commitment to her relationship.
Glad they broke up with their respective partners and finally burned out that passion on my screen in the final episode ? and then took a new path in their life without the weight of the past and them came back together in a clean slate ? and special kudos to kechaun who took that bold step not caring about the consequences or that he may lose his job immediately he realized he couldn't go on with the farce of a relationship with Ziyauan, she was crazily unbearable , she would have been the perfect match to deal with weiwei's ex haoyi. .

Major romance is centered around two 32 year old twins. The female lead called fang zin and her twin brother cang yang both falling in love with younger lovers with over 10 year age and how they were able to make the love work despite the the societal pressure from friends , family, neighbors and colleagues.
The male lead was obviously very young and because he looked really young his love for the female lead looked more like a lingering crush, although he did well with romance and skin-ship scenes, they were able to obviously portray that they preferred romance was with him and not luming which is why most viewers will concede to song yuan, however Luming was Obviously realistically capable and older.
The female lead was a bit lacking in character portrayal , she was meant to be an extremely efficient business administrator and acted in that capacity at work, but her trying to speak like she is an idiot in the name of acting cute will probably grate on your nerves, acting innocent and speaking cute was absolutely unnecessary for her age and in trying to make it look like she is new at love , given that song yuan didn’t like his female age mates at school for the same reason.
Canyang the leads make twin brother also really stole the show as he was a really funny character and I don’t think you can get through this drama without his character and that of the energetic and crafty Luming.
This drama had no devious and evil parents against their relationship. All the couple problems were self inflicted because they didn’t act brave for the love they believed in.
I want to see more of characters like canyang and Luming in cdramas, they brought so much comedy and life to their acting that made me finish 41 episodes else I would have dropped this drama because of the cute way Fanxing started trying to speak when she started her relationship with Song Yuan, it really dropped her character value to the regular stupid Typical female leads

You are my sunshine is a fairly simple feel good drama, the love story starts from college days between the young couple and here the female leads chases after the male lead in a kinda cute way until he fell for her, his jealous half sister decided to come between them and told mo Sheng that she is in love with her brother Yi Shen and when mo Sheng wanted to clarify, Yi chen angrily told her to stay away from him because of her father’s proposition to him and she assuming that he broke up with her decided to leave for USA where other events eventually led her to stay for the next 7 years .
Yi chen became broken hearted, finished school and became successful but he kept hoping his Mo Sheng would return back to him and he kept waiting Until one day 7 years after when he was almost going to look for her in USA before giving up, he sees her again back in shanghai, he was initially angry at her and eventually seeking her out with the excuse of a law suit from her friend, he finally found out she had gotten married for 3 years in USA which further broke his heart and he refused to hear Mo Sheng side of the story even after she told him she he also divorced, then Yi chen suddenly decided to get married to Mo Sheng and they went to register their marriage and started living together but with a strained relationship.
Mo Sheng ex fake husband suddenly realized that he lost a good potential wife and since he didn’t finish his divorce proceeding decided to go and win Mo Sheng back as his real wife and he used all manner of schemes to make Yi chen give up on Mo Sheng but Yi chen wasn’t ready to let go but instead started getting closer to Mo Sheng until he began to trust her completely again.
He eventually solved all the problematic hurdles and got married to Mosheng and they have a son
Xiao Xiao and Yi Feng also had a lovely relationship in this drama
And everyone basically got a happy ending. Al cast chemistry was really good

This is nice and simple drama with fluffy and cheesy romance. The main leads were cute and adorable but i find their drunken scenes too hard to believe and a bit excessive.When the second male lead hearts was broken, i felt really bad for him because it was clear she jumped onto him at the feeling of a crush.
the others side stories were heart warming. but the scene with the lady that had cancer was unnecessarily dragged, she should have settled with her husband when she was sick so we could have have a happily married couple vibe for most of the show.
the curly hair lady falls in love so easily and gets heartbroken so fast.
basically in love the second time around you meed to be sure of the right emotions before jumping in

They also had way better designer wardrobe line up to the point it was so showy, and obviously they had a lot of location and apartments and more resources available,.
The chemistry between the leads was much better and they kissed a whole lot and definitely not pecks, however their acting was sometimes over the top to the point that I felt they were all excited, could be they got a lot of endorsements with this drama because the product placement was just ridiculously too much that I was almost gonna quit just because of the excessive product placement in the first 10 episodes. The female lead didn’t act well in a lot of scenes especially after she learned she got amnesia and didn’t have two year memory, her acting there on was really bad and just ridiculously unbelievable for someone who lost her memory, which is why I said why I said they probably got too much endorsements money from this drama that they didn’t feel the need to put in their very best towards the end.

Maybe it’s because the alien character wasn’t well written or well acted, it just felt off and most times ridiculous. The chemistry was tolerable but for an alien driven by hormones I expected more men chasing actions but she was always put off in acting when the man initiated skinship and kisses with her, so she what’s the point of all the attraction of male hormones ??♀️. Anyways you get lots of hugs from the leads when she gets frozen

SIMPLY NICE AND FLUFFY DRAMA WITH A SPRINKLE OF SLICE OF LIFE
This is a nice realistic and a bit fluffy drama with a bit serious life issue of psychologically sick and manipulative exes thrown in to deepen the lot.It is about two adults always meeting each other coincidentally at a crucial time in their life and making new bond over dinner as strangers, they enjoyed dinners despite their differences in taste and preferences without placing unnecessary burdens on each other so they gradually began to open up and told each other about their past hurts and unknowingly forming a deep bond and slowly began to heal each other, but their past relationship partners keeps dragging them back and trying to put a wedge in their new found love for each other with their obsessive and manipulative behaviors.
The drama built up slowly but became addictive for me and i enjoyed the simple story, the male carried the weight of the acting and portying of emotions in this drama but i didnt like the acting of the female lead as it wasnt so good for lead standard plus she was so tense and uncomfortable with skinship and acted liked she was being attacked in kiss scenes, i thought she was in her early 20s, was shocked she was a 35 year old woman, plus she had been in previous relationships in the drama, the second female lead has the same annoying character she took in Cinderella and 4 knights, it felt like a continuation of her selfish behavior there.
The drama ended nicely and happily and there was a bit of redemption for the antagonists.

The Love story is the usual is a back and forth love of love between two people plagued by the usual trope of misunderstandings and family differences that drags through 53 episodes .
The chemistry between the leads was passable, but it should have been better for a 53 episodes drama., a lot of sweet moments of bed scenes and skinship should have been infused to make the journey of watching more exciting .
I however liked the story of loyalty, the male lead was loyal through and through before and after they broke up which was for the right reason but the wrong approach of disgracing her. I watched the entire drama which means I enjoyed it moderately because I normally drop dramas I don’t like the story line.
I won’t ship this couple, I don’t think their chemistry had the sexual energy vibe that makes me believe they would want each other after the show .

The plot seems good but it’s also very confusing, and repetitive for the first few episodes, I know I need to give it a few more episodes to under stand the whole plot, but it looks all over the place and confusing which is rare for me as I always look forward to cracking out drama theories .
I think I should put it on hold for now because the drama seems ambiguous and complicated and I need the right drama of mind to work through such dramas.
Too many repetitive scenes and the time traveling thing seems too confusing .
