Doggy Dog World

Cha Eun Woo, a young and exceptionally handsome K-pop idol, proved his acting prowess in this engaging drama. I was charmed by his character, especially the humor derived from his fear of dogs, a sentiment I could relate to, particularly when it comes to large dogs. His portrayal resonated with me, showcasing a side I never expected from him. The authenticity of his acting, especially during the kissing scenes, left a lasting impression. While it was acting, the chemistry felt remarkably genuine.

Park Gyu Young, although cute and commendable in her performance, seemed to lack complete chemistry with Cha Eun Woo, leaving a slight gap in their connection for me.

The adorable dogs added a delightful touch to the narrative, with one support actor delivering convincing barking sounds. The overall set and storyline were praiseworthy. My gratitude extends to the cast, writers, and producers for their contributions to making this KDrama an enjoyable experience.

This is a really good watch. I loved the storyline. I wished I could be a time traveler. I love this kind of storyline. It had me confused so I really had to go back and rewatch some of the episodes a few times. I get it now. Going back to the past and then going to the future had me so confused. After I figured it out, I was into the story. This is one of those dramas you can’t skip any episodes, or you will miss important parts… or ask yourself “why did this happen?” I really loved the two main actors/actresses, Lee Je Hoon (Yoo So Joon) and Shin Min Ah (Song Ma Rin) did very well. I felt sad for Song Ma Rin… I cried somewhat. I have to applaud Shin Min Ah for taking a hard role to play. If you see this drama, you will understand why I said it. I applaud the writers, directors, supporting actors/actresses, and everyone else. Thank you!

I have to give this a 10 rating, I am also a mother of 3 sons... I will also protect them with my life no matter how old they are. I can understand the story behind the Queen who is protecting her sons. She protected one of her sons who is a homophile. Homophobia runs deep in Korea. There are no protections in their laws to protect the LGBTQ communities in the present day. This Historical drama brought another side of history. It didn't show how brothers in killing each other for the thrown. It only shows how Queen Dowager is a danger to everyone who is part of the court. But like the historical part of Korea is similar to those in England, Rome, etc. I applaud Kim Hye Soo (Queen Im Hwa Ryung) for bringing a mother's pain, worry, protection, love, and support to her sons (grand princes) in this story, her acting was very believable. Kim Hae Sook (Queen Dowager Cho) was very believable that I threw my shoe at the TV. Choi Won Young (King Lee Ho) became a puppet for his mother but resisted in the end. He played a hard part to play. Moon Sang Min (Grand Prince Sung Nam) The things he had to do and go through to become Crown Prince that I cried for him. I thank all the other actors and actresses for an awesome job.

NOTE: Suicide ratings were very high in the historical era as well as it is in the present day in South Korea which is #4 in the world ratings. If you know someone who is having a problem... the worldwide number to prevent suicide is 988. Children are raised with honorifics and what is formal and informal. Suicide is none of them... we need to start protecting family members, friends, or those we don't know. The suicide cycle needs to be broken. Recognize the signs! Talk to your children, and teach in schools that bullying is not allowed on the world wide web. Don't become a Netizen who bullies others online.

In order for me to rate this better is to see more of it. I will have to wait for Season 2 but this is a very good story. It brings awareness to those who bully. I didn't realize that bullying was just that bad in South Korea where netizens can destroy those who bully. No wonder South Korea is in the top 5 countries with suicide rates. They need to make more dramas such as this one. It's funny that I watch and review dramas that I have a stalker on MDL. My personality is very strong so it doesn't bother me. I've been through worse. I hope everyone watches this, this is the 2nd such Korean Drama that I have watched about bullying. Bullying is one of the malicious crimes I hate the most.

Second Time Watching

When I first watch this was 10/6/2019 and it took me until 2020 to finish it. I was very inexperienced in writing reviews. Now, this is my second time. I hope the review is much better than my first.

This is actually a good action drama. Ji Chang Wook, just OMG, who played Kim Je Ha was amazing and very muscular and healthy-looking. I did my research on Ji Chang Chook and found that he wanted to learn more advanced positions in martial arts for this movie to excel in the fighting skills that he already has. Systema, Taekwondo, Aikido, and Jujutsu for this drama's action scenes I applaud and bow to him with respect His Martial Arts skills were on point. His Martial Art was like watching a dance with the great connection of his kicks and thrusts. His Stamina for doing his own stunts is very impressive. Another Korean actor will be placed at the very top of my favorite actor list. He can sing too. Since this is the second time, I have viewed this drama. I have basically watched everything he has done. Im Yoon Ah who played Ko An Na was also amazing. I loved her acting skills. Playing a weak female part is the hardest to play. The romantic chemistry was very believable between Kim Je Ha and Anna! The main actress Song Yoon Ah (Choi Yoo Jin) is very good at acting out a scheming woman. I feel this whole drama was about scheming and threats but with great fighting scenes. The actress who played Raniya wow those blue eyes were very blue! The guest roles for this were many. The storyline is very well written and so I thank the writers. Thanking all the K2 team for making this a successful drama.

Vin Zhang (Zhuang Yu) This actor, I will be honest, had bad feelings for him because of "Eternal Love". I could not watch any drama he did after that, how silly of me. That meant he played with extreme raw talent and he was believable in playing the character. it took me two years to watch anything he made. I had to grow to love this actor. I decided to watch and am backtracking to watch other dramas that I miss because he is now one of my top Korean Actors. I love this side of VZ in this drama. The botany scientist was very convincing. It shows his intelligence and that he can play different characters.

Yu Shu Xin(Yu Mei Ren), is an actress I just started watching and may have watched her in other dramas but Love between Fairy and The Devil is where I noticed her talented acting. The only thing about this drama is why I dropped a point off the storyline because the producers or screenwriters had her acting like a child continuously and I know from watching Love between Fairy and the Devil, I believe that is not her. I don't know why they made her look like her character was a spoiled child. I still gave it a 10 because I know that both main leads have great talent. Wow both are beautiful looking! Thanking all the other actors/actresses on the set and the team. I felt like Episode 35 was not the end. I wanted to see more. I am going to rewatch this again, one day.

I love this drama very much. I only had one hiccup and that was trying to understand the last 3 episodes. I had watched them like 4 times to get what the story writers were doing. I finally did. I hope that whoever watches understands the ending as well. The acting and the romance were livid. Zheng Ye Cheng who played Fu Jiu Yun did excellent with this character. I want to see more of him. Zhao Lu Si who played Zhao Lu Si Di Ji/Qin Chuan, I just love this actress, she is just incredible with her acting skills. Every time I see her perform in a drama, she works hard to turn into the character she is playing. This actress had me so emotional. This will be a rewatch for me. The fantasy and the martial art were good. The two main leads had me not so focused on the fantasy world which I love but my focus was on the story this time. I thank all the supporting actors and actresses as I always do because they also worked hard. The visuals were also good. Do not skip episodes are you will find yourself going back to watch them and understand what happened.

This is not the first time I watch Park Bo Gum in a Korean Drama. But this is the first time I focused and paid attention to his acting ability. He is really great, I love the little side of humor he put in playing this character. Kim Yoo Jung did well in this drama. I admit that this Korean China had some twists all throughout the drama which I enjoyed. Jung Jin Young, what a fine-looking young man he is with perfect heart shape lips. Then there is Kwak Dong Yeon fine as he wants to be. I was happy! Don't worry, I paid attention to the storyline and I enjoyed it. The visuals and the historic set were awesome. The fighting was not so gory but good. Thank goodness! I didn't really pay attention to the music but only focused on the storyline. Thank you to all who made this story come to life.

Update: My 2nd time watching it and I had to upgrade the rating to 10. I so loved this drama after watching it a 2nd time... and there will probably be a 3rd time.

*pouting*

I had to give this a 10 even if the writers got it wrong by killing off both big stars, Cheng Yi and YangZi who played Yan Dan and YingYuan. Then decided like 2 weeks later to add episodes 60 and 61 to make up for their error. Made a lot of us fans of both Cheng Yi and YangZi really upset. Knowingly how a drama is that long to kill off both leads. Wow at the writers. Had me crying my eyes out and felt like my heart sinking into oblivion. I still have tears in my eyes. From Episodes 1 through 58 it was going super great until the last few minutes of 58 and then here comes 59 with a different scenario. OMG did I just feel an earthquake under my feet? unt uh. This was a believable story and everyone made this fantasy work so thank you. Thank you writers for bringing them back into the mortal world.

I have watched this like 3 times in a row. I loved it so much. Leo Wu, I need to commend him for playing Xiao Yan he absolutely made this character his own. Jelly Lin playing Xiao Xun'er did very well. I know in my DNA of the Renaissance period that you didn't know who were siblings or related. I thought Xiao Xun'er was a biological sibling. I was wrong. Baron Chen OMG is only a supporting actor but I love his acting. I loved how the wardrobe team dressed him and the way the hairdressers did his hair. Baron Chen just made me add more movies to my list with him being the main lead. The fantasy and the visuals are beautifully done. The Martial Arts, perfection! I applaud all the actors and actresses because without them this drama wouldn't exist. Thank you to the screenwriters and producers. Respect!

Part 2 was just as good as Part 1. Ren Jian Lun (Alan Ren) and Dilraba Dilmurat have such great chemistry together. Acting that is. The fantasy in Parts 1-2 is phenomenal. This is the best Chinese fantasy drama that I have had this whole year, I mean half a year. People are just so scared to rate anything 10. Everything that I love in fantasy was in this drama. I could go on and on about Ren Jian Lun and Dilraba Dilmurat, those two did everything right. This is the first time I'm seeing a drama with 6 main leads. The other 4 leads deserved their positions. Xiao Shun Yao was awesome, Cristy Guo was scary evil, Fan Zhen played her part well, and I loved the Royal Advisor played by Ci Sha. The visuals, the martial arts, WOW, fantastic. The Costumes are beautiful, the hairstylists did a great job, and the rest of the actors/actresses did their part. This is a rewatch for me. I am so glad that Viki decided to show Parts 1-2 together. Thank you, everyone, you did absolutely great.

This had a pretty good storyline so thank you, writers, producers, and directors. Ahn Bo Hyun was great in this, I have checked most of the movies to watch and I need to jump on it. As a military prosecutor, I would hate to meet that character in a courtroom. I love the main lead actress, who played a dual part. Her martial art whether acting or real. I loved how she moved. She was awesome. I don't really get off watching any dramas or movies with military content. It's not that I hate the military, but I hate war and I know that men and women will die during the war. R.I.P. to those who have died during the Ukraine War. Thanking the team of this drama for their work.
