@Gabi Bros thank you for your response

Spoiler

yeah..I'm so frustated because of Jisoo lol. What did happen to you Jisoo? Thankfully, like you said, I'm not blind fans who will defend my bias whatever bad he is or felt Jisoo is too good just to be a flower prince (yes, there is Jisoo fans who said this and I don't like it, this is just like Jisoo in SGG all over again) or irrationally blame drama (and his co-star and or PD and or SWnim). Because Jisoo is indeed BAD (at least for first 3 eps). Even though if turn-out this new 14th prince character badly written by SWnim, Jisoo is an actor who have a job to show his character via his acting and so far he failed. I still have a hope, but not much and my fellow Jisoo's fans on twitter also felt the same But this is learning process for him.

about IU, I don't talk much about her because I don't have a problem with her acting. She is good, even though not great. and she is most good in not comedic scene, so I'm looking forward to next episode to see her acting.

August 31, 2016

Finally I have watched first three episodes of MLSHR. I decided to watch ep 1-3 before I write something in here because if I write just after I watched ep 1 maybe I just write all bad things lol. I haven’t read all posts in here so please bear with my post because is so full of critics and not good things and maybe redundant with previous posts. And I really hope I will never write again these all bad things for next eps..

So MLSHR turn-out to be very pretty but quite empty. Cinematography is great but editing is so choppy and jarring. The most terrible thing is BGM and OST. They are so misplaced and so unfit with scenes. I was literally pulled-out my hair in frustration every time I hear the OST. I love the OST as individual song but when they inserted randomly on scene, oh that was so bad. BGM also great as individual pieces but they really unfit with certain scene and overused. Who is music director?? He/She is the real criminal in here lol. The editing also not good. The transition between scene is so jarring. I’m sorry if I sound so technical in here. I rarely complain about this in drama I watch, but these things are so obvious and makes me as viewer feel uncomfortable.

For acting, this is full of awkward and cringeworthy acting especially the princes but except for three main leads, IU, LJK, and KHN. For me, those 3 leads are good, especially LJK, he owns his character already. The younger princes’s acting is the worst esp Baek, NJH, YSW and Jisoo. They are so bad, moreover for first 3 eps they are only served as comic characters. Such a shame!

Story is pretty interesting. This is not exact replica adaption so I understand the difference. But I invested in story already. Esp, the story of our main lead, Wang So. Ahh, this so heartful and heartwrencing. My heart hurt for him. LJK as Wang So really great potrayed his character who was abandoned by his own mother and was feared by his own brothers. And aww..when he smiled watching 10^th and 14^th make fun to each other.

Okay, so maybe some of you already knew that one of reason I watch this drama is Jisoo. So I’m going to write about his charater and his acting. I will put in spoiler tag because maybe some of part will be slightly off topic.

Spoiler

I think, the thing which makes me more frustrated watching first 3 eps of MLSHR is because of Jisoo. How do you feel when you watch drama because of your favorite actor, he was known with his great acting skill in his previous dramas but turn out in this he is just bad?? Yes, for me, in first 3 eps, Jisoo is so BAD. He is so awkward and cringeworthy. For the first time I want to fast forwarding all his scenes. I felt like I was watching his character in Page Turner, Cha Sik, in Goryeo version, but this is an awkward and cringe version. If you already watch PT you know that Cha Sik is not awkward and cringe, he’s cute in good way. But Wang Jung is just cute, but in bad way. I already read comments on Dramabeans recap ep 1 and all who mentioned Jisoo said that he is bad and I agree and actually is not just me who felt that wang jung is like cha sik because some people said the same thing lol. It seems that jisoo brings his character in PT to MLSHR but failed. I don’t know what’s wrong, the way jisoo interpreted the character, or maybe wang jung was written like that or directing or whatever I don’t know. Such a shame that SWnim writes 14^th prince just as comic character because the original in novel is not like that at all. I know I know this is only beginning, and the character description hints that wang jung will through a character development in later eps. But, look how SW and PDnim (and Jisoo) treat 14^th character in first 3 eps like that, I don’t have much hope. 14^th prince is my favorite character in novel (and Tong Hua’s favorite as well!!) so I really disappointed with his character direction so far. I know this is not exact replica adaption just like I said before, but can SWnim write the new 14^th prince as good as the original?? So, I really hope I will never write this part at the end drama later, but let me express this now:

“SWnim, PDnim (and Jisoo)..you all ruined 14^th prince character for me..”

So, Jisoo’s performance in first 3 eps showed that maybe he is not suit in sageuk drama (yet). Now I know, that Jisoo is still very depend to good script and directing. He hasn’t reach a level when he can act good no matter terrible script and or directing and or drama production. He still needs learn a lot of things. See, people, Jisoo is not lead material yet. His time as lead is still long, I think. (I’m sorry I write this because I always read /literally/ all said that Jisoo deserves get 1^st main lead already, for me, he is not ready as lead yet, and I’m big fan of Jisoo :p). For people who complained that he is in everything lately (he was in Doctors, drama before MLSHR and he also act in JTBC drama FantastiC and will premiere next Friday), please let him takes a lot of roles and characters, even though only as supporting. He can learn a lot from his sunbaes, PD and or his co-star.

Ep 3 definitely better than first 2 eps and I heard they will also re-edit first 3 eps, so there is a hope they will re-edit all next episodes. Sorry If my post sounds so negative. But I just want this drama gets better. Now even I don't really care about ratings. Some of my all time favorite drama got low ratings but also got great review. I just want for next eps, MLSHR will get good review and respons from viewers. Fighting!!!

August 29, 2016

Hmm..okay..I already lowered my expectation about drama esp ratings..but I thought that it would be higher than that..but this is only first 2 eps..hope the best for next eps

Fighting!!

August 29, 2016

[V Report Plus] Why Baekhyun won't be showing his abs in new drama 'Scarlet Heart: Ryeo'

Updated : August 24 2016

Lee Joon-gi introduced the cast of “Scarlet Heart: Ryeo,” an upcoming period drama in which he and singer-turned-actress IU play the main roles, in a V app broadcast.

(Lee Joon-gi)

“Scarlet Heart: Ryeo” is a Korean drama adaptation of the Chinese novel ”Startling by Each Step.” It will air on SBS from Aug 29. Contrary to the Chinese drama adaptation of the book in 2011, the drama will be set in the early stages of Goryeo Kingdom, a Korean kingdom established in 918 by King Taejo, instead of the Chinese Qing Dynasty.

Baekhyun, from K-pop boy group EXO, plays the role of 10th prince, a sibling of Lee Joon-gi.

”You showed fans your abs during an EXO concert. Why did you not take off your shirt for this drama?“ Lee jokingly asked Baekhyun.

(Baekhyun)

”I didn‘t have abs at the time we filmed,“ Baekhyun responded with a grin. ”Also, the character that I play is not a muscular guy with abs.“

(IU)

IU plays a 21st century women who, after an eclipse of the sun, finds herself in the body of a 16-year-old girl during the Goryeo Kingdom. ”I watched up to the fourth edited episode of the drama. The visuals are very pretty. The drama has elements of both comedy and tragedy,“ she said.

Naver’s real-time broadcasting app V allows fans to interact with their favorite K-pop stars through live broadcasts. The app is available for Android and iOS. For more information, visit www.vlive.tv

I forgot to comment about latest BTS video..before I visit this thread I just watched it..

it seems that SBS really emphasized that abs galore scene hahaha lol..I mean they showed each prince BTS poster photoshoot and then their abs scene when all princes bath together lol

August 23, 2016

Wang Jung/14th Prince is like a third wheel of 10th Prince and Soon Duk's relationship lol

August 23, 2016

@meahri_1 thank you for shout-out! oh noo...why did 4th slap 14th?? I only could managed to watch cdrama up to ep 9, and it seems that actually there is a bit "competition" between them but it seems in MLSHR it will be more obvious..poor maknae..Wang Jung seems really suprised

On 8/22/2016 at 2:37 AM, jongski said:

Chingus...any idea in which episode he will appear?

@jongski based on novel and cdrama, all princes will appear since beginning, ep 1. But in beginning episodes, 14th/Wang Jung will appear only in background..actually each prince will get spotlight respectively..except 4th and 8th who are the "main" princes who will get more spotlight since beginning..

--

thank you so much chingus for all updates..so they will release 1 hour preview on Saturday? hmm..I think I will stay away from this because I don't want to be spoiled..tbvh I like more china trailer and first korean teaser..for 2nd and 3rd I only felt hmm..it's okay..in the beginning I didn't really like the modern song, but when I heard the teaser of EXO song I like it! I think I just not used to hear modern song in sageuk..however all BGM songs are all epic and great!! about ratings..I think we just can hope and pray for the best..because imo korean viewers taste can't be predicted..fighting MLSHR!!

and I just want to share latest teaser edited by jisoothailand.hihi..it's so funny..ahh..our puppy Jisoo aka Wang Jung

August 19, 2016

@meahri_1 thank you for the shout-out <3 that second special clip is so funny..I follow some of IU's fanaccount on twitter and my timeline full of Haesoo and 10th prince fighting scene LOL

@Gabi Bros thank you for shout-out <3 yes!! finally SBS released BTS video first script reading..I have been waiting this since forever..I like see 1st script reading because I want to know how cast first met and in their daily style (I mean if BTS scene they will wear their character outfit etc).. I like the atmosphere of 1st script reading..LJK really showed that he is sunbae among all cast, IU looks cute and seems a bit nervous..KHN is full of excitement..Baekhyun looks so tiny LOL..and please forgive I'm so excited because there were so many Jisoo-Joohyuk moments LOL

So many international viewers love him and hopefully the K-viewers will follow suit soon.

please visit Jisoo soompi thread for more infos

But the official facebook page have always announced one day before what they are going to release the next day. Right? They have done this with the stills (giving hints), the posters and the teaser. There is no new announcement of a new teaser yet. Anyways, I still hope they will release it in some hours.

I think jisoothailand translated that there will be total 4 teasers for 4 weeks so 1 teaser each week..so maybe they didn't announce yesterday (Sunday) because they thought they already announced last week

I really hope SBS will release the bts scenes once the drama starts airing. It would be funny to see how they shot Hae Soo's peeping tom scene,the scene where she and 10th fight like children and even all those action scenes. I would love to see how much of the stunts was done by the actors themselves since it appears than Lee Joon Gi really worked hard and didn't use any stuntman himself.

In the meantime,I'm curious to know what you all are doing while waiting for august 29? Care to share?

I'm sure SBS will release a lot of BTS videos *praying* just like other SBS dramas. So this week SBS already released 1st teaser, first SBS PD Note and new still cuts. I'm expecting next week we will get 2nd teaser, 2nd SBS PD Note (I predict HD pics of 1st script reading) and/or BTS video 1st script reading, and new still cuts.

what I'm doing now? I have been watching dramas (W and UF), beside MLSHR, I'm also anticipating Jisoo's new drama Fantastic and Jisoo's new reality show My Ear's Candy (basically we are Jisoo's fans, will get triple doses of Jisoo each week if those 3 projects start this month. Moreover MLSHR and Fantastic are going to premiere in the same week! ).

August 5, 2016

@Gabi Bros @meahri_1 my pleasure

wow..thank you so much for Cosmo China pics..those pics are so much better than Cosmo Korea (in term of fashion imo lol)

Ah,that is possible too. I was just trying to lie to myself that they stuck to the sad ending. I know most people prefer happy endings for dramas but considering how violent the time period this drama is set in is, I would prefer a sadder ending as it would be more realistic although I don't really think that they would do that. Most likely there will be a happy ending but with a few characters not making it to the end. I don't mind as long as it's realistic

for me I prefer beautiful and memorable ending..whether sad or happy or ~~open~~ ending ..if anyone in here have watched Mirror of the Witch and you are part of viewers who loved the ending..you will understand about beautiful and memorable (sorry I mentioned motw again, because that drama is still fresh in my mind lol)..I have watched the ending of cdrama and read review the ending of novel..ending of cdrama was quite different but I prefer ending in novel..
