Sean 📝Nearly universal disdain for #Twelve and #WhenTheStarsGossip from Day 26 of #EYDC2925! I guess I really dodged two bullets there 💀

What was #TheGreatFlood??? I heard it was weird but wow. It feels like what #WhenTheStarsGossip sounded like as someone who didn’t watch it.
I can see what they were going for but it was weird

"When the Stars Gossip" has an awful 6.6 rating on MyDramaList. I think there are 4 reasons for that.
1) people thought it was making an anti-choice political statement. I didn't think that & on this rewatch I'm taking notes about why. I'll have to do a spoiler post about that.
2) I can't say this one without a spoiler, but again, I think people misinterpreted what happened in the relationship.
3) The pythonesque humor. Not typical for k-content. Finding the phallic & yonic imagery in a synchronized swimming routine hilarious may not be for everyone. Finding the invitro fertilization process mimicked with an archery scene & frying eggs not only visually beautiful, but so funny is also not everyone's cup of tea.
4) Many complained that the science-y stuff was just not possible. In the 1st eps we see Lee Min Ho (at 35ish) as a high schooler. You know at that point this drama doesn't care about being realistic.
I'm on eps 7 in my rewatch and it is truly a MASTERPIECE!!
Oooh - I'm working on my review of "When the Stars Gossip" - my take on the impossible tech there is different.
You're right about "Memories of the Alhambra" being sci-fi/fantasy, so you can be forgiving, but "Healer" being somewhat realistic and so their tech missteps didn't sit as well. (Although, Ahjumma is my favorite hacker ever!)
But "When the Stars Gossip" is in a class of its own for reasons I'm trying to define and so the impossibilities didn't bother me at all there.
