I felt the right wingers were depicted as the bad guys and of course the left winger as the hero . Obviously we have no idea which direction it will take . I’m sure it’s a doomed romance and the righties will probably win in the end . It’s going to take a better person than me to stick with it as it’s just tedious . The reason people are mad is because the male lead is a North Korean spy disguised as a South Korean democracy protester. Right wingers at the time claimed that there were North Korean spies hiding among the protesters and that many protesters are blindling following North Korean spy not knowing that the whole protest is a North Korean scheme to bring down the South Korean government. This was the logic used to crack down on all the anti-dictatorship protests. People that are mad at this drama are mad because the drama is showing a North Korean spy among protesters just as the right wingers of military regime claimed at the time.

Thanks Truth that actually makes it a bit more interesting .It really changes the dynamic a lot . The FBI did the same in the 60's, probably still do .
It does put a lot more interest on the love story as Jisoo will fall for a North Korean Spy .I am probably harsh on her because her boyfriend is Seung Min Hong and plays for Spurs. Great player wasting his career on a horrible team .

Great player wasting his career on a horrible team . It's Heung Min Son, not Seung Min Hong, and he is not Jisoo's boyfriend. Both Son and Jisoo have denied the dating rumor. As for Son playing for Spurs, he has no choice, no bigger club would buy him. They would if he was younger, but he's now nearing 30 with market value worth 93.50 million dollars. Which big club would buy him at that price? Man United? We have Ronaldo and upcoming young talents like Sancho and Greenwood. Arsenal? Tottenham would never sell a player to Arsenal and Arsenal is currently rebuilding their squad with younger players in early 20s. Liverpool? They've got Salah and their owner don't like spending money. Real Madrid? They'd rather buy Mbappe and Haaland for sure. Barcelona? They let Messi go because they don't have money. His skills are world-class, no doubt, but at his age you never know when his form will start going downhill. Bigger clubs would rather spend their money on buying younger talents like Haaland.

Didn't truth say earlier that it was rumored that after Taejong Yi Bangwon, KBS would do Hong Beomdo? If this gets through, then it's his second (I think) work taking place during the occupation. This is a different drama that has nothing to do with KBS. KBS officially announced title of their Hong Beomdo show today and it will be called "Hong Beomdo: Hymn of Gun"

So JTBC are not going to drop the drama . It’s doing really well on the export market . Instead they will open a portal on the drama’s web site where fans ( that’s probably not a good word ) can discuss their complaints .
I do like Son but dealing with Daniel Levy the Spurs chairman is an even bigger problem than Son’s age . It would be a team like Newcastle that would go for him. He still has about 3 good years left in him at top level . He’s not leaving anyway . Conte is a great manager until he starts fighting with the board than it’s the point of no return . For now Conte is the best thing for Son, Kane, Delle Alli, and my god he’s even transformed Eric Dier .

Hope to see this one be good.

Richest club in the world? They're about to go down to Championship. I would say Ben Davies look like a whole different player now as well.

Kim Mi Soo one of the major supporting actors in Snowdrop died yesterday aged 29 . Cause of death is unknown at this time .
They really should just pull the plug on this drama . Reviews are terrible, the star Kim Ji Soo is getting trashed for her bad acting . Ratings are in the dumpster and now one of the supporting cast has died .

Checking out The Silent Sea.
Bae Doona took a break from Kingdom for this. Not in a bad way though.
