a rant about veneers

This drama started with a geart story, good plot, amazing characters wit personalities, however i think it fell off at the end. The ML is an amazing actor, I've been a fan for a few years and he embodies royalty like no other, perhaps a little too self-righteous. But the FL feels a little boring, not to mention her crying is weird, like she's trying to look pretty no matter what. And i don't mean to criticize her looks but does she have veneers? i know it's kind of a trend lately, she looks way too modernized to be in a historical setting.

Something about historical dramas that i personally don't enjoy are open endings, it feels like there's more to the story but it is already finished and I'm waiting for something else to happen because the story kept building up. Did they really end up together? Does the King forgive his mother? Does the crown prince ascend the throne? Did the king choose a Queen? they kept bothering him about that even i wanted him to choose one.

But what i really liked about this drama was the ost, I feel like all TVN productions always excels in soundtrack songs

like a group project being put together just before the deadline

the first season was great, perhaps they kept repeating that one imagine dragons song every 5 minutes but at least it had a plot.

it's insane how it went downhill after the success of the first season. characters dying left and right, introducing new ones but made no effort to make the audience care for them.

this season feels like a filler, only killing characters for shock value and keep things interesting. and speaking of shock value, that fucking baby fetus monster human hybrid?????? it made want to punch into the screen and kill myself.

but I'm not gonna lie, that one scene at the end between (evil?) hyunsu and eunyu had me at the edge of my seat, more so that the rest of the season.

messy plot, messy story and a messier editing.

while a cheating storyline seems to be an entertaining plot for this series, i couldn't force myself to continue watching this drama for more than 5 episodes, not saying the plot it's bad; but there's something about how they're telling the story that makes this drama impossible to keep watching after a few minutes into the episode.

i couldn't even recognize when they were showing me a flashback. the editing felt like i was time-traveling back and forth; i even kept messing up two of the male leads because of this.

this drama falls into the ones that aren't worth watching because of bad editing and directing rather than bad acting or even storytelling

also, i would've liked if they made it seems like the reason for the divorces weren't all for their spouses cheating, like... get a little more creative there.

¿Qué?

No se ni como empezar.

1. Sim Sooryeon puede ser el personaje más débil que puede haber, no tiene bases, no tiene confianza, dudo que pueda tener agallas de hacer lo necesario para salirse con la suya de una vez por todas (spoilers: no lo hace, ¿terminó ganando o perdiendo? lol). Le llevo 3 temporadas tener huevos para por fin m*tar a su "esposo", todo para terminar peor que como empezó

2. Yoonhee, no importa cuando quiera el guión hacer que tenga lastima por ti, tu te lo búscate. Tal vez su muerte no fue escrita de la mejor manera, pero fue buen shock-value para la trama, no lo voy a negar.

3. Todos los ricos corruptos (personajes secundarios)... ¿soy yo o su castigo no fue suficiente? sus únicos papeles en la trama fue de "comic relief", ¡no olvidemos que los ricos también lloran!

4. Mugre final pedorro, 5/10, fue bueno en cierto sentido, pero pudo ser mejor; debió ser un final donde la prota puede conseguirse un interés amoroso bonito y su felices para siempre, pero bue.

5. Esta serie no debió ser tan larga, es cansado ver a la misma cucaracha (Joo Dan-tae) no morirse, el balazo debieron darselo al final de la segunda temporada. Pero si, el final de Seo-jin sí me pareció justo; triste y amargo, como su existencia en la historia.

No escriban guiones largos solo para alcanzar el límite máximo de palabras

En terminos de plot, siento que es mejor que la primera temporada, los personajes son más complicados, algunos mas humanos, otros siguen siendo las mismas lacras de siempe (que vivan los ricos 🫰🏻).

Penthouse enseña que el dinero es poder, aunque aveces es mejor usar el "poder del guión" solo para deshacerte del personajes que es como una cucaracha, por más insecticida que le heches no se muere el idiota.

Pudieron cambiar un poco más la dinámica de los buenos contra los malos, la trama llega a ser cansada cuando los protagonistas no pueden tener ni un segundo de satisfacción.

La protagonista llega a ser poco confiable, ¿perdonaste a la persona que estando ebria mató tu hija y cuando pensaste que podrías manipularla, esa persona te traicionó conspirando con tu marido corrupto para deshacerse de ti? agarra el rollo, Sim Sooryeon.

gente rica haciendo cosas de ricos

Siento que el hype de este drama es mucho para un guión tan predecible. Si, todos los ricos van a ser corruptos, y si, hay una persona (o dos) que quiere vengarse.

Es increíble tener padres ricos que cometan crímenes para que sus hijos inútiles entren a una escuela inútil donde van a terminar sobornando a todo el mundo de todas maneras.

Son muchos plot-twists y sacan demasiados personajes "secretos" que al final se pierde la intención del drama. ¿Quieren demostrar que la gente con dinero siempre va a tener poder y por ende terminan ganando? eso es lo mas pegado a la realidad que podemos llegar.

Por otra parte, Logan está guapo, disculpen el atrevimiento de decir que solo esperaba ver sus escenas lol.
