"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!!

To me it seemed to be an unusual kDrama venture into Monty-Pythonesque humor (which I loved), so I really enjoyed the show.

I can't wait to write up my review for this one - it's crazy & wild & there is some iffy science, but for me it really brought about some deep thinking.

One of those that mixes humor & silliness with the problems of humanity. Very well written!
