While I don’t think Jang Yang Shil’s MP script is all that stellar, I do want consistency, and having another writer add her two cents worries me immensely.

If I notice the characterization or plot going the Kim Eun Sook-way, I am going to break out my big knives when I write any future recaps. This news made me so furious I almost broke a table, if for nothing else than I don’t want another cook mucking up the kitchen at so late in the game. MP thus far has been written by Kim Eun Sook’s protégé Jang Yang Shil. Thank god, because the music helps me get through the plodding scenes TBH.Īs some of you might already know (I didn’t post about this specifically but did mention it in passing in comments and whatnot), Kim Eun Sook (the writer who just finished the mega-hit Secret Garden), has officially joined MP as a co-writer. I continue to love the OST to an unhealthy degree, and every single freaking piece of music in MP I love without reservation. Which is not to say that when all is said and done I won’t love MP more than some other dramas that made me rabid and cranky with want when I watched them live. It’s a drama that I genuinely adore, but never managed to develop an all-encompassing love for it. My feelings for MP have also settled into a nice comfy place. Combined together, its ratings are just about right on the money.

The stellar OTP moments in MP make me think it deserves higher ratings, but the dull and plodding royal restoration plot make me think its rating are too high.

With the ratings holding pretty steady at between 15-17% for the last two weeks, this drama looks to be a solid hit. My Princess hit the mid-way point of its run today.
