larus 65,447 Posted June 29, 2019 Hye-Jin and Jung-Rok met Jung Ka-Ik in Joseon. I wonder when she will realise that her fiancee is a psychopath ? From the stills it looks like Jung-Rok will work at the palace. I miss seing him as an archer. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The time travel genre is not easy to do. Some dramas works, others don`t. It is not complicated this time. For Han Jung Rok`s sister will be harder because she will fall in love with a real character who must remain in the past. The protagonists and Seul-Ki must survive all the events and find a way for all to get home. I think that our modern heroes will have influence over Joseon characters but they will grow as peoples as well because all the hardship. I will enjoy watching this. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phoenix24 1,900 Posted June 29, 2019 hihi @gm4queen I was wondering why you were so quiet and was getting worried. I thought you at least watch 1-2 episodes like heidi. I definitely think you should check it out because oppa is working hard. I'm not sure about 1st lead romance as many mentioned, but the 2nd lead romance is so cute, bromance, and sibling relationship all makes it worth giving it a go. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
larus 65,447 Posted July 1, 2019 In ep 7, that governor made me laugh with his comment. He compared Hye Jin and Jung Ka Ik with Romeo and Juliet. He knew about Romeo and Juliet? or it was just a translation thing? He said that Joseon monk and Ming Dinasty physician have to choose love for each other or loyalty for their countries. WOW, he had some empathy left in him? The second funny line... When Jung Ka Ik brought Sung Rok and told him that he is not at his level. I think Sung Rok he gave him a very strong reply and I like how he told him in the end that he doesn`t see an aura but an evil spirit. These two men will compete to show who is the knight in shining armor to Hye Jin. It was funny when Sung Rok pretended to talked on the phone with Hye Jin and when she responded to his question he thought for a moment that he has WI Fi.

I did not see Seo Ji Suk in anything but I think he will do well with the role. I read that he was an athlete when he was young, he was selected to prepare for the national team but an accident (he was hit by a car while crossing the street) ruined his sport career. Good luck for him and Joseon Survival team! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I read, the only site that translated this drama was OneDemandKorea but they have removed the drama from their site after Kang Ji Hwan`s sexual assault case. I think this drama will remain without the subtitles for the last six episodes. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blizzardistkaputt 1,139 Posted August 13, 2019 If you can read Chinese subtitles, you can Google its Chinese title, "朝鮮生存記" This drama is quite an enjoyable watch. It's a pity that one bad hat had ruined the efforts of so many in the production team. Never mind about the awkward replacement, just keep that mischievous sister aka crown princess on-screen will do. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
