My Royal Nemesis is a romantic comedy-drama about a notorious Joseon-era villainess who is poisoned and transmigrates into the body of a modern, struggling actress. She clashes with a ruthless chaebol heir known as a “monster of capitalism.”

Reactions to the series have been mixed, with some unable to finish watching it and others heavily invested.

Disappointing K-Drama Series That Viewers Couldn’t Finish Watching In May

While some chaebol CEOs are cool, calm, and collected, Cha Se Gye (played by Heo Nam Jun) is proving to be a “big freak,” according to viewers. While he and the female lead, Shin Seo Ri (played by Lim Ji Yeon), were visiting Namsan Tower, he looked her dead in the eyes and announced that his own “arm-sized” Namsan Tower is “even better at night.” Excuse me, sir? What?

He said it with the kind of confidence reserved for people who have never been told “no,” but that’s exactly what he got from the female lead, who rightly questioned his motives. Why is he always trying to lure people into his house?

Cha protested, saying he was “innocently” trying to offer her a tour, but Shin called him out again, asking why the “tour” needed to happen at night. Abashed, Cha finally admitted, reluctantly, that even he gets lonely sometimes. (Lonely? Well, that’s one way to put it…)

Viewers are loving Cha’s unhinged declaration–Arm-sized? Really?–and expressing their disbelief. How could he say that in broad daylight?!

Now, the only question is…Is he all talk and no action? Stay tuned to find out!
