The Last Empress Episode 32

5.0/10 - The pacing is starting to feel off.

Princess Soo Jin is pretty incredible. Despite questioning what was happening between Sunny and Woo Bin she was there to save Woo Bin. Despite everything Princess Soo Jin has become . . . more lovable. She's spoiled, but a good person. I'm very hopeful that at the very least Woo Bin will help her and save her from her family.

That said all of these fools! Lee Yoon gave his plan away so, duh, the doctor gets killed. Then the secret garden room is exposed! I'm pretty sure Sunny should have been worried before going down! At least Baek Ho was savvy enough to be worried and saved them. Despite Sunny wanting to protect Woo Bin/Wang Shik she almost ruined their first go.

Just when you think Lee Hyuk might be saveable he says something like "What's the big deal about killing his mom?" His break down was hard to watch. Woo Bin's smile at knowing he's really gotten to him priceless. But will someone take Lee Hyuk gun away.

I'm a bit worried about the pacing. It's super slow and flashbacks are shown that we JUST saw. Not just quickies, long ones! The ending confession from Woo Bin and his use of his brotherly wish were quite fascinating.

The old captain of the guard being alive and well is super annoying.
