RTP is currently being shown in the Philippine...Hi! RTP is currently being shown in the Philippines and has been dubbed in Filipino. I've always enjoyed watching shows with historical plots. But this is more interesting because of the time travel thing. So I'd really expect this to be super funny if you'd bring 18th century guys to the 21st century. But I think there will always be a plothole whenever time travel is involved. I don't want to ruin my enjoyment from watching the show by overanalyzing the loopholes here and there. <br /><br />Anyway, I've read your reviews on the final episode. Can't help it!!! I'm just sad that Yi Gak couldn't be with Bak Ha in the end. She fell in love with Yi Gak and not with Tae Yong. :-( Well, I don't have a clue how to make that happen if Yi Gak really needed to go back to Joseon to solve the murder. But I still would have wanted Bak Ha and Yi Gak, BODY AND SOUL, to be together in the end.<br /><br />Your reviews are so insightful and makes for a fun and refreshing read. I especially like your comment about pitting a Slytherin against a Hufflepuff! :-) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16125545693254981216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629595233350894949.post-5948174772475603882012-05-28T09:52:32.806-05:002012-05-28T09:52:32.806-05:00You'll really love the comedy in the upcoming ...You'll really love the comedy in the upcoming episdoes! The hilarity with the Joseon guys just doesn't let up, and it's not the same old gags, either--there's always some new thing going on with them.<br /><br />I was happy with Park Ha as a heroine, too. It would be so easy for someone as badly treated as she is to have been a perfect, pure, pitiable damsel for our hero to save. But nope! She's very take-charge. :-)<br /><br />Yeah, they barely address the fact that Park Ha has spent almost her entire life in America...and yet seems 100% Korean, from language to cultural habits. And they never do say who adopted her, nor does she have any contact with her adoptive parents. Plot hole!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17140835320864680932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629595233350894949.post-3463608588000681382012-05-28T08:42:58.271-05:002012-05-28T08:42:58.271-05:00I just started watching this and agree, it sure is...I just started watching this and agree, it sure is a weird mix of genres, time periods and what-have-you! The most confusing part is that the dopplegangers are not related in the same manner in the past/present. The girls were actually sisters in the past but in the present they are not blood relations, for example.<br /><br />The potential for romantic entanglements is almost endless, we may even have two versions of the same guy vying for the same girl. Bound to get confusing down the road, I bet!<br /><br />I actually loved the darker aspects of the series, I am all for that kind of thing but the comedy is amazing. The guys bowing down to the bill was beyond hilarious. <br /><br />I think the burning incident was an accident. Hwa-Young may not be the nicest person ever but she does seem to trip. Odds are we'll find out more about it.<br /><br />I liked that the main girl is not a Mary Sue. At first I was afraid she'd turn out to be one of those sweet, hardworking, too nice girls that serves to make the villains come across as even worse (and vice versa) but fortunately the way she bosses the guys elevates her to the status of an actual person.<br /><br />One thing I found odd, the main girl is supposed to have been in the States for quite a while (was she adopted after the shipped-over-to-Busan bit?) but she can hardly speak English at all.Nocturnalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02360914276257072241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629595233350894949.post-72896394488247759182012-05-11T09:54:34.269-05:002012-05-11T09:54:34.269-05:00You're welcome!

Those kids really are too cute and I was appalled at Joseon-Sena burning adorable Joseon-Bak Ha :( I don't even have a theory of how this is going to end. It is overwhelming.<br /><br />I watched Sungkyunkwan Scandal which also had Yoochun in it and he was AMAZING. In this drama "miffed" is the perfect word to describe his character xD I love these Episode Reviews.(: Isa :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12084069836319373635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629595233350894949.post-15598413199384853352012-03-30T21:55:50.596-05:002012-03-30T21:55:50.596-05:00Okay. My theory has changed. Bak Ha goes back to N...Okay. My theory has changed. Bak Ha goes back to NY, finds Taeyong, she tells him what's happening, but he doesn't want to go back & they fall in love. Meanwhile crazy pants Se Na begins falling for Lee Gak. <br />And I think Taemoo's doppleganger from the past was the one who killed the princess.<br />And done with my crazy assumptions. lol.<br />Hehe.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05945001045883674095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629595233350894949.post-65570018366570184152012-03-27T19:24:51.516-05:002012-03-27T19:24:51.516-05:00Shanise, I love your theories!

It would certainly make the story better if he was still around to make things more complicated.<br /><br />This thing is so doggone funny, I hope it stays true to episode 2 so that I can stick with it for its duration! I want to watch the whole show if it'll just stay good...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17140835320864680932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7629595233350894949.post-69822747390423960582012-03-27T16:14:27.902-05:002012-03-27T16:14:27.902-05:00I died reading this. (From laughter.)
I agreed 100...I died reading this. (From laughter.)<br />I agreed 100%! The first episode, I probably had a WTF face the entire time... and then comes episode 2 and I laughed like crazy from it. The face the one guy made when she told him what the toilet was for. oye. This seems *knock on wood* like it may be a pretty good show!<br />And I agree with the past language & present language. When the cop said "okay, if you want to play this game..." and starts using former Korean phrasing.<br />Aye. I can't wait for episode 3. And for them to do something with their hair! (And hopefully their clothes.)<br />This is how I think it'll end: I don't believe Taeyong is really dead. I believe he'll come back, fall in love with Park Ha. Present Big Sis & Yi Gak will fall in love and instead of him staying in the present, I believe she'll go back to the past with him.<br />Basically I enjoy coming up with ridiculous ending that will probably not happen. But who knows... this is a ridiculous(ly good) show! hehe.<br /><br />♥Shanise<br />예이! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05945001045883674095noreply@blogger.com
