The Last Empress Episode 8

6.0/10 - Poor Sunny! Those fools aren't very good at hiding their affair!

So it was a lift! Is that normal. That seems dangerous. Like a really good thing to go wrong and well kill someone. Because wow, they're gonna kill Sunny right after the "I dos". Then after all that Lee Hyuk is not even showing up. Not showing up to check on his wife or show any worry. I mean a bodyguard climbed up there to save his just made bride's life! All he cares about is fleeing!? He clearly ordered the hit! So why be a coward and not a hero?

So I'm wondering how much Grand Empress Dowager knows? I feel like she loves Sunny so much that she would never had brought Yu Ra back if she had the slightest clue that an affair would happen. Or had happened. After all she looked very suspicious with Yu Ra and Lee Hyuk together.

Oh, I'll do my best to assist you. Off a cliff! My goodness!!! Yo Ra is so crafty! She's setting up Sunny for failure I'm sure. Not to mention the ending scene! She's so brazen. That massage was so dangerous! She's just flaunting how much Lee Hyuk wants her. She doesn't even care if Sunny would find out. Maybe she wants Sunny to. It just seems like it would be foolish to kill or let Sunny know about the affair. It's too soon. Red Flags!

The bodyguard interactions are great. So far. It's super cool. After all he sees everything going on. Chun Woo Bin will be better than a servant position because the body guards can, and have to, go everywhere. They're the best spies. So Chun Woo Bin should be able to not only figure out the truth, but figure out who and how to take people out.

All of a sudden the Empress Dowager is super cartooney. Her acting just went over the top. Though I fear the director might be amping that up. Phew, it was super attention. So intense I did a double watch to laugh!

Well I'm off to junk out on the next episode! As mentioned: that ending!!
