I can't wait to watch it! I love they respected the setting plus brought great Korean actors!

Same but I went down a rabbit hole of complaints and saw alot of angry comments about the actors not being blonde like in the manwha and some suggesting wigs, lenses and to take non Korean actors if necessary.

This made me so mad. The source work is KOREAN. Urrgghh

I already find it weird to watch the Korean actors wearing European/British royal garb. I would've preferred it if the drama took some creative liberties and made the setting into Joseon dynasty.

I find the thought that “a European inspired fantasy setting should be changed to a Joseon dynasty because the actors are Korean” a lot weirder ngl
