chel Jun 21 2026 9:03 pm My Rating for Royal Nemesis 10/10: The storyline is so good. Every episode is something you’ll really look forward to watching. The casting is a win. It’s like they gathered almost all the villains from K-dramas in one drama. Nam Jun and Ji Yeon’s chemistry is solid. You wouldn’t expect that two villains, or a protagonist and antagonist, would make you feel butterflies. They deserve to be nominated and win Best Couple. Even their BTS clips are already heart-fluttering and so natural. You’ll be even more drawn in when you watch those episodes. You won’t be traumatized by the ending, but you’ll cry, laugh, get annoyed, and feel all the emotions. You’ll get butterflies like crazy. It feels like you’re actually inside their drama world, that’s the effect it had on me.

Cyn Jun 21 2026 3:02 pm OMG? How can I forget their OST soundtrack, "Anyway" It's officially on my Spotify playlist now. Every time I hear it, I relive the emotions and beautiful moments from this masterpiece.

Cyn Jun 21 2026 1:04 pm 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is my very first time commenting on a drama, and Royal Nemesis truly deserves it. Every actor delivered, including the supporting cast. The ML and FL embodied their characters so naturally that I completely forgot I was watching actors. Their chemistry is simply top-notch.

Special praise to the ML—he played the best CEO I've seen in Kdramas. His charisma, expressions, and emotional delivery were perfect. I honestly never expected to love him this much, but he absolutely owned this role.

And can we talk about the CEO and his assistant? Their interactions were so good! They deserve a Best Couple award, and the main couple deserves Best Romantic Couple as well.

Royal Nemesis is a masterpiece and easily one of the best dramas I've watched this year. Bravo to the entire cast and crew!

Zeus Jun 21 2026 12:11 pm 10/10!!! An amazing drama!!! Loved it straight from the beginning! Even though i could not stand the FL i still enjoyed the series to the fullest. I adore the ML Heo Nam Jun and, i love his acting, i love his looks, he is ?. The story / plot ?, the cast ?, chemistry ?

PANDORA Jun 21 2026 11:57 am 10/10 from start to finish. Every episode delivered, every character knew how to act, storyline was spotless. What a masterpiece, MRN you will never be topped I fear.

Ximena Jun 21 2026 10:49 am I just finished My Nemesis with Royal Airs and I loved it from beginning to end. The story was exciting, fun and very moving. I became very attached to Seo-ri and Se-gye, and their relationship kept me interested until the last episode.

I want to especially congratulate the actor who played Se-gye. His performance was incredible and he managed to transmit many emotions. I hope to see him in many more dramas as a protagonist because he has an impressive talent and charisma.

sarah Jun 21 2026 10:32 am One of the best K-dramas I've watched in 2026, with a perfect male lead and female lead! Thank you to the writer-nim and everyone who made this drama such a success ?.

Every episode kept me glued to my screen and excitedly waiting for the next one. I honestly don't know how I'm going to survive my weekends without this drama ????.

I still have a few questions about the story, though:

1. How did Kang Dan-shim become a concubine when she was originally just a palace maid? 2. Where was Kang Dan-shim when Shin Seo-ri returned to modern times? 3. Why did Shin Se-gye dream about the Prince and Seo-ri?

Overall, I would rate this drama 9.9/10! ?

Azlin Jun 21 2026 7:55 am What a beautiful journey. Every episode was filled with love, comfort, and warmth. Thank you, My Royal Nemesis, for these amazing 7 weeks and the memories that will stay with me forever. ✨

park bo wo Jun 21 2026 4:43 am eps 1-2 was damn good eps 3-14 is so awful

one if the worse drama in 2026

ADK Jun 16 2026 12:19 pm What has gone wrong? Will I be able to see Kang Dan Shim rewrite her history in the last 2 ep? So much for the villianess of Joseon. She disappeared. I wished this drama is 16 ep to allow time to explain the background story of how Kang Dan Shim transformed from a humble court lady to become a villian concubine in the first place.

cha Jun 16 2026 4:15 am OMG i really really love this drama ❤️❤️❤️ the storyline, the chemistry between the actors, the OST, the cinematography and also the plot twists making each episode worth the wait. been long time i haven’t watch ongoing k-drama. 2 more episodes to go all the best for our ShinSegye couple. I wish we’ll get the happy ending ??

Saw Myat Thandar Jun 15 2026 8:31 am As a fan from Myanmar, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the entire team behind "My Royal Nemesis". This drama has been a wonderful experience from the first episode to the last. Every member of the production team deserves recognition for their hard work, dedication, and attention to detail.

What impressed me most was how carefully each scene was created. The directing, cinematography, editing, music, costumes, and set design all worked together beautifully to tell the story. It was clear that every department took its responsibilities seriously and gave its best effort. Even small details helped bring the characters and their emotions to life, making the drama more immersive and enjoyable for viewers.

The cast also delivered outstanding performances. Each actor and actress portrayed their characters naturally and convincingly, allowing the audience to connect with their journeys. The chemistry among the cast members felt genuine, and every scene reflected the effort and preparation that went into the production.

I would especially like to congratulate "Heo Nam-jun". As a Myanmar fan, I have followed his work with great interest, and I am delighted to see his growth and success through this drama. His performance was memorable, heartfelt, and full of emotion. He brought depth and sincerity to his character, demonstrating his talent and dedication as an actor. I hope this role will open even more opportunities for him in the future.

"My Royal Nemesis" is not just a drama; it is a project that showcases "the power of teamwork". The success of this series is the result of everyone working together toward a common goal.

Thank you to the writers, directors, actors, production staff, and everyone involved for creating such a meaningful and enjoyable drama.

Sending love and support from Myanmar. I wish the entire team continued success and look forward to seeing your future projects.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 Highly recommended!

Sua Jun 14 2026 10:29 am Best kdrama ever!!! If you want to replenish your life energy, this is the kdrama to watch. I dont think i have ever rewatched a kdrama, but this one OMG i can rewatch it 10 times and i dont think i will ever get bored of cha se gye and shin seo ri. Both actors play their roles so well, the kdrama is so well written, the romcom is so enjoyable. Everything is 10/10.

If your thinking of watching it, watch it! You wont regret anything. (Also the BTS of the acting is so cute!!! You can tell the leads really enjoyed their role and the chemistry was chemistrying!!)

Ellen Jun 14 2026 7:10 am Great quirky drama, gradually warmed to the leads and got used to Heo Nam Jun acting a ML instead of a villain or crazy guy. Ep 10 when he was running to Seo in hospital director took a scene out of CLOY when Captain Ri was running to Seri in the hospital after she woke up - straight copy so cute. Very funny and clever, full of tropes as a K drama should be. Live it

Un modeste admirateur Jun 13 2026 4:58 pm If perfection turned into drama, it would be «My Royal Nemesis». Absolutely flawless TV! I can't think of a single thing the production could've done better in the episodes I've seen so far. I would place it in the same league as the cult French movies «The Visitors», as they share a similar time-travelling theme. Congratulations to everyone involved in the making of this masterpiece! And particularly to writer Kang Hyun-Joo, because under the shell of comedy, the script manages to pack so many hidden perls, from history lessons to human values, and of course love.

Best Kdrama of 2026 Jun 13 2026 2:24 am One of the best rom-com kdrama of this year!! I'm Still Hoping For A Better Ending For The Two Leads.

CutieChimmy Jun 12 2026 10:34 am I super love the male lead and got hooked with him.. it made me watch some of his other series because he is that good. His acting and adlibs are very authentic and made the scene more realistic.

Trish Jun 09 2026 3:37 am Writer Kang Hyun-Joo-shi, Thank you so much for this masterpiece! We have four more episodes left and I trust that this will not go to waste and we'll get the happy ending we deserve!

Whatmyname Jun 09 2026 2:52 am Mo tae hee face is so annoying. I want to poke it.

Moon Cycle Jun 07 2026 12:31 pm I'm confused, why Mundo acts like piece of work from the first place. Am I missing some past events something? or he is simply demonic, Just like a group of people nowadays

Mermer Jun 07 2026 4:53 am Interesting to see if Shin Seo-Ri will change (her own) history if she does go back to her former Joseon self after the accident. Hopefully we also find out why the prince had to wear the half mask.

Also, I'm predicting that Seo-Ri's manager/neighbour Baek Gwang-Nam is a reincarnation of the white puppy that Kang Dan-Sim rescued with the prince but was killed by the king (and "Baek" means "white" in Korean).

MoreLoserInLove Jun 07 2026 2:45 am This drama made me laugh so hard. It has everything you wish for in a romcom. I definitely love the loser Cha Se-Gye. They should make more drama where the ML is a loser so in love with the FL. We need more men yearning in dramas since men in real life are not doing it anymore.

Nemesis Jun 07 2026 12:32 am I believe so

In that way, the history would be changed and set right. When Shin Seo Ri is back, the museum will display the correct history, including the painting that had originally drawn by Kang Dan Sim.

Dhaniek Jun 06 2026 10:46 pm Extremely Perfect KDrama Ever. Watching this drama likes roller coaster. Love this Drama from eps.1

Just finish watching eps.10.

Trio Cha Se Gye + Shin Seo Ri + Assistant Son, are Perfect cast caracter. They have high level acting.

Salute to Director or someone who made this happen.

Heo Nam Jum surprise me with his character. His smile, angry, serious, Embarrassed, in love body language. All perfect by Him. 10000000000000000000% Perfect by him

Assistant Son chemistry with Cha Se Gye is no debate. They are fantastic.

Best Trio Actor and Actress

Congratulations for them and all team. You all great team

Cheers From BALI

Marrie Jun 06 2026 8:10 pm Oh Em Geee, just finished watching episode 10 (ep 11 preview) and Debaaak! first off all, I've been literary high-fiving ghost in my room every time Cha Se-Gye does something wholesome, or just simply exists throughout the whole series because his facial expressions and his actions are killing me!

And then on a little spoiler and my prediction side: I am guessing in episode 11, after the accident she's in coma and falls back into the past where she'll probably try to either find the Grand Prince or do something to overthrow that tyranny king, before she wakes up from coma in the present time. Or maybe her waking up in the past would be before her 'death' (before they gave her poison) so that way she knows what's coming and puts the plan in motion so the events we saw in the beginning does happen before she's awake again...Ughhh anyway. I can't wait until next week

Runi Jun 06 2026 5:10 pm Still on going, don't know the ending yet so I have nothing to say about that. Overall casts have good acting even to the extra who say 1 or 2 lines. Cinematography is just okay. The plot is interesting and they don't make the whole thing about the past which is really bearable to watch. Main lead have chemistry so if there's anyone who wanna bite their blanket while watching this will be the one. It's better to watch it when the on going is finished because the anticipation will make you wanna drop the drama because right now there are a lot of new ones too. A really enjoyable rom com overall 8/10 for now. Oh and they have Crazy fan service.

Ma Ri Jun 06 2026 1:32 pm Please give us a happy ending! And more male leads for Heo Nam Jun!!!

sari Jun 05 2026 11:55 am I'm kinda sad that I'm not that excited about this drama anymore, it was still good, currently at episode 9, but my interest slowly declined, I just can't pinpoint why. Maybe coz of the hype, like everyone saying it's so great, I mean it's good, I guess I should've consumed less fan related and behind the scene content. I guess I'm also nitpicking the past plot, I've read theories that it could still be Seo Ri and she just remembered her past life as Dan Sin, just as how Se Gye's having dreams from the past, but still, like it wasn't Seo Ri that's he's in love with. they do have chemistry but I'm not convinced by how their love story is written, especially Seo ri's. I feel like she's more in love with the past, and is just trying to cease the life she's living now, and that's understandable, the past is her life. unlike se gye who's really in love with her. see, if I was really into the drama, like I was from the start, I wouldn't be nitpicking plot holes or just anything about it coz I'd just accept and enjoy the story. Anyways, I just want to rant here. I'm still going to watch it though hopefully it won't get worse (in my perspective of course not specifically the drama itself). Wonder how will they end it, is it reincarnation, she's seori after all or will she go back in the past at the end and of course seori's personality isn't the same, so will se gye fall for seo ri regardless.

Heidy Jun 04 2026 3:48 am Greetings from Indonesia.. I love this Drama ❤️

Noy Jun 03 2026 1:38 pm this show has been my favorite k-drama of 2026 so far omg im gonna miss every single thing about this drama ?

Noona Jun 01 2026 4:44 pm The male lead character is getting on my nerves. He’s so arrogant and acts all high and mighty and untouchable yet he misses every scheme his cousin sets for him. What’s the point of constantly acting you have everything in hand when you have nothing in hand? It makes enjoying this drama a little hard. He’s unlikable. the plot is also very predictable. No surprises. I’m kinda bored.

OK Jun 01 2026 1:27 am To me, there's only one lead, Seo-Ri, with many supporting characters who make her role even more significant. Maybe Se-Gye will step up mid way to take control of the plot and counter his cousin's schemes and reverse Dan Sim's fate now and in the past.

Kiyowo May 31 2026 8:12 pm Please tell me the song in the last scene of episode 8

exe May 31 2026 12:09 pm What a good drama, really good, I think this is one of the best romcom I've watched after Business Proposal and Mr Queen (minus the ending). Chemistries are so good, not only between Lim Jiyeon and Heo Namjun, but also both of them to all of the supporting characters. Comedy are so fresh, they used some of well known romance trope and creativily twisting it into some fresh directions. Everyone r so good at acting, so smooth, nobody feels forced. And oh man, Jang Seung Jo is amazing, I wish Mundo have more screen time and doing more sick deeds that he is already. I live his acting.

On twt ive seen people calling Heo Namjun as ugly ML but he is so heartbreaking ??? Ive been so crazy about Cha Segye he is so good.

Willcary8@gmail.com May 31 2026 11:55 am Love this production and the two leads!!! Great work!

Poop diddy scoop May 31 2026 11:10 am Why he hold his laugh like that

Roha okane May 31 2026 8:15 am What i like about ML & FL is they are good in acting, the dictation and their facial expressions.

Also, it is very rare to find a ML that looking so manly and masculine. Most of Kdrama ML so muka jambu.

XieXie May 29 2026 7:38 pm Lim Jiyeon becoming her characters every time she acts is so !nsane to me. Thats why I can’t recall her characters from The Glory and The Tale of Lady Ok. The best actress in her generation.

TLT BRCA May 27 2026 3:36 pm This is, by far, one of the most entertaining kdramas I’ve watched in a good while! I am really looking foward to the weekends so I can forget about everything and just have fun for 2 hours. The cast is superb! Lim Ji-yeon and Heo Nam-jun are doing an amazing job! I was laughing out loud in the scene where they met, iconic!

Mingyu May 26 2026 10:56 am Great drama, casting, ost and story! The female and male lead has best chemistry and amazing acting, for sure this kdrama will be awarded many recognitions and awards in acting soon!

Kelly May 25 2026 12:08 pm Lim Ji-Yeon looks so beautiful in this drama, are expressions are so cute

Kelly May 25 2026 12:02 pm I'm having a great time watching this drama it's so fun. Everyone is doing great. The male lead is effortlessly funny. I remembered him in the Kdrama "Snow Drop" as the restless student, who couldn't be calm; he was so funny he made me laugh so hard that I couldn't stop laughing... I replayed his scene over and over again.

This drama is exactly what I need right now...relief

Tulip0014 May 24 2026 11:39 pm Im on my 30s and I don’t want kdrama that has stressful storyline anymore. This drama is chill and funny. I love seeing Lim Ji Yeon on this drama since she’s so annoying in The Glory. The ML, he’s getting criticism right now bcoz maybe his not handsome like Songkang, Cha Eun Woo and others ML but he’s so d*mn hot in here. He’s acting and charisma makes him so attractive. So inlove in this drama. Can’t wait the remaining episodes.

Jan R May 24 2026 9:13 pm Wait both male leads are from Snowdrop??? Ok, say less, i will definitely watch this!

NeilWH May 24 2026 5:14 am Just what the doctor order !

LEE May 23 2026 11:51 pm Im gonna say i was skeptic at first but im gonna say This Drama Is a Breath Of Fresh Air. Fast paced, funny, unpredictable and the banter uhgh.. i love it. caught myself laughing out loud with a lot of scenes. it was hilarious and at the same time i caught myself giggling. their chemisty was Off The Charts. looking forward for fri-sat because of this! ugh

Karl May 23 2026 8:38 pm Overall I like this drama very much: There are a lot of funny situations and dialogues, the cast is brilliant and Lim Ji-Yeon is just wonderful! I would like it even more, if Kang Dan-Sim sometimes acted a bit smarter, cleverer and show that she is a strong woman with emotion and intelligence and suprise us with her knowledge and thoughts dating back to the Joseon era as well as all the new things she has impressingly quickly learned about the present world. This fit better to her role-personality and provide the viewer with even more fun and excitement!

Koko May 23 2026 8:24 pm Battling depression but this kdrama makes me happy. Cant wait to see the next episode

Sanji May 23 2026 7:10 pm Well, this kdrama is getting better. It’s hilarious at its best. I am really loving the ML and FL. Plus the sound track is amazing too.

Best Kdrama of 2026 May 23 2026 11:10 am Daebak!! This drama is one of the best of this year and that OST from Gwyn Dorado. I'm so obsessed to it and has been listening to it on repeat already. I'm so excited for more episode and I can't wait to watch this drama get all the awards it deserves!

Astrid May 22 2026 12:26 am Loveeee it!

Loveme May 20 2026 9:57 am Love the cast... already know the plot but still very interesting

Opeyemi May 18 2026 4:28 am I totally love this fresh and exciting series. Seeing that the main actors have been given a chance to be the main after several side characters in other movies. But they still brought this series to life with a unique story. Love from Nigeria ????

Imnida May 17 2026 5:45 am Hope it gets a high ratingssss jebaaaaalll, this really deserve all the love, support and high ratingssss

Lee je ah May 16 2026 8:48 pm So fun to watch Loving both ML and FL good acting so amusing Looking forward Hoping for the next season to show us even how the before FL was loving i mean a recall or something Other than that all casting is doing good

Looking Forward!!!

dee May 16 2026 7:49 am Soooo, who's the king??? This kdrama is so interesting that I have watched even if this is still ongoing!

Alsoud Hajihil May 15 2026 11:25 pm The aide of the Male lead does nothing and still be funny. Also the grandmother scene is just wholesome and sad considering the woman who owned the body died during set is just heartbreaking. She never got to see her grandma one last time. ToT

Djbianca May 14 2026 6:57 am Its still the first episode im watching and im already rolling laughing to death.

A MUST WATCH!! May 13 2026 11:56 am I can't stress it it enough. I laughed so much. Especially after she binged watch.

Mia May 13 2026 10:24 am Low ratings but no1 in ott and netflix, guessing this attracted more gen z on their smartphones. Still one of the fresh & fast paced drama I enjoyed so far, Lim Jiyeon is really a good actress.

Hallyu wave is real May 12 2026 1:54 pm This drama is fantastic and the plot is amazing…I am hooked by the performances of both male lead and female lead. They are amazing in their own way. Perfect cast, perfect story, no boring moment at all…what more to ask..perfect drama to watch on Friday and Saturday. Loving it so much. Seriously good start.

Ma Ri May 12 2026 11:25 am Why such low ratings? The story's good so far. And I'm so happy that Heo Nam Jun is finally a male lead!!! He acts really well in all the series and movies he's been in. Please, universe, let this series get a double-digit rating! And more male lead roles for Heo Nam Jun!

Manu May 10 2026 8:44 pm Kang Dan-Sim's story reminds of Jang Ok-Jung's story, one of my favorites. 2 episodes and I'm already convinced this is one of the best dramas of the year. Two amazing actors, great chemistry, interesting plot, villains who are not the real villains. I love it!

Hanidah Ashari May 10 2026 11:10 am Major love for this drama. Lead actor and actress are fabulous. Cant wait for rest of series. Watched Nam-jun in When the Phone Rings n hooked. The actress looks like the lead actress in Mystic Pop up Bar. Just rewatched this drama too.

Boom May 10 2026 7:10 am Great first 2 episodes! Rooting for this drama!!

T May 10 2026 6:55 am Reminds me of The Story Of Park's Marriage Contract which I loved!

Chloe May 10 2026 4:48 am This is so fun, I just can't. Lim Ji-Yeon is such a gem! I hope the rest of the story will be also at the same level.

Joseon May 09 2026 2:22 pm Ok this is very promising…loving the first two episodes hope it continues till the end.

Troutsicle May 08 2026 9:37 pm Ji Yeon is such a gem. What an amazing first episode.

Brian V May 08 2026 2:28 pm This title just popped up on my Netflix feed. I don't generally watch KDrama's based on the Joseon era but this looks kinda funny. I'm sure it will have a bunch of the situations where someone from the past is put in a situation where they have to experience something the audience has grown up with. I just hope they put a fresh perspective on those moments. The female leads seems to have a funny cuteness to her, from the trailer anyway. I got a Han Ji-Min, who is my favourite actress, vibe from her, from when she was in Behind Your Touch. I'll definitely put this on my list of shows to watch.

Diana769 May 08 2026 12:53 pm I just watch episode 1..Wow,I really like this story ??? Can't wait for episode 2 ?

Cha Apr 22 2026 2:17 am im so seated for this diva

Jew Apr 16 2026 2:25 am I saw the 1st teaser and I was amazed on their chemistry. Can't wait. I hope it's 16episodes.

Josephine Feb 11 2026 11:58 am I really need this to air quickly like right now.. Lim Jiyeon save me

Jew Jan 01 2026 7:57 am Wow! I'm looking forward to it!?

Joy Dec 31 2025 3:37 pm Giving queen and I vibes

Lea Oct 25 2025 6:51 am Lim Jiyeon?? Say no more Im Seated

Keko Oct 19 2025 11:54 pm Horee can see Lim Ji Yeon after the Tale of lady Ok .. aahh 2 favorite actress & actor ( a hundred memories ). Yaayyy cant hardly wait

Jillibean Oct 19 2025 2:14 am Hope it's good! I fell in love with the leading man in A Hundred Memories! :)
