Exactly. None of us are expecting monogamy from the royal family as we understand the structure of marriages and concubines during this time. It’s the way he went about it and the lack of respect he has for the crown princess. When she came looking for him regarding her mother and he already left to console the other woman my heart broke for her.

Yea, the professor made that clear already did you miss the whole episode where he literally has to start from scratch and ultimately concluded that she was in fact the common denominator? What did you think he was doing in this episode when he collected data from all the men associated with her?

I can completely understand him feeling demoralized in that situation and he honestly didn’t even have to sleep with her again. However he is the crown prince and he has responsibilities. The fact that he has the ability to even leave the palace and get some fresh air shows how privileged he is compared to her. She can’t get pregnant, they already shoved a new concubine down her throat and on top of that the prince doesn’t show up for his duties. Even after reading the story out of simple respect he didn’t check in with her. When she couldn’t even be with her mother on her deathbed he has the ability to go and check on the woman he met 15 minutes ago.

I really hope that the crowned princess can get the divorce. The prince can leave the palace to sleep around but she couldn’t even leave to see the aunt her bestie when she passed. Now she couldn’t even visit her mom on her death bed. She spent her entire life imprisoned in that palace. May she be able to fly away and get the freedom she so deserves.

The issue is that he went to that woman during their scheduled meeting. He knew that she was already struggling with the fact that she’s not pregnant. He could have went to other woman at anytime but he decided to embarrass the princess by leaving her on the night where all eyes are on her. He already had a concubine and she obviously didn’t even mind that. This is the perfect solution for her to get out of that palace. I don’t think she would have cared if he took that girl as a concubine. it’s just the way he decided to go about it.

Are you okay? you do realize that this is a historical drama right? The women during this period didn’t have choices. They both got married as children and even their sex life is scheduled and choreographed. The men during this time could sleep with anyone they wanted and especially the king or would be king. All woman are considered the kings women. He could essentially grab any lady from off the street to serve him. Technically it’s not cheating since the royals are permitted to do so. The issue is that he didn’t follow the procedures and slept with a woman during the scheduled time he was suppose to sleep with the princess. Bridgeton and outlander are not historically accurate they are just romantic period pieces. This drama talks about the struggles women face during that time. Mind you the other prince raped a woman and legit got away with. Meanwhile her aunt was literally murdered by her in laws. How did you manage to watch all those episodes and somehow still looking for fairytales romance is beyond me.

the cdrama has no love triangle at all. The brother was just desperate to legally be tied to his family and share their last name. He has a stupid friend that basically tells him he can do that by marrying the FL. There’s no feelings and it legit gets wrapped up in one episode as they both essentially find it gross and see each other as siblings. if you loved this drama, you will like this one even better as you get attached to the characters and love them even more.

The most annoying thing kdrama writers do is constantly have the FL’s jump to conclusions with little to no information. In love to hate you the FL immediately concluded that the ML was a pedo who dates underaged girls. They see a tattoo and start picturing a whole story of the ML being part of a gang. I can understand old people doing that but as a young person living in the modern world no way you still believe everyone with a tattoo is a gang member. As an educator the least you can do is gather more information and observe quietly before making accusations. You can write strong female characters without constantly having them be loud, drunk, and judgmental.

If the pace of the story is not for you why not just drop the show? it’s clear from episode 1 that this would be a slow moving story that focuses more on emotion. That might not be your style. personally I found episode 3 to be very emotional. I can’t wait to see the leads interact.

Jang Won is so bland to me I really hope the FL doesn’t end up with him. I thought he was gonna tell his dad to act when it come to the rapist prince but instead he told his dad to get the books banned essentially leading to everyone getttong tortured. meanwhile the ML is literally a man of action. I know he differs with the FL on the concept of love but he literally is a man with a plan. I like that.

the low ratings have been happening for a while now. it usually changes and updates within the coming week to have a more accurate rating. I think it might be some internal issues with the app. Either way I hope that people understand that there are some shows where you are not intended to think too hard. it’s a funny light show. The first episode was cute let’s see how it goes.

the best thing about the show though is that the siblings all get along and love each other despite the annoying concubine mother.

omg I felt so bad for the aunt. it really was hell for women in this period. if the husband dies they tell you to die with him. if you get raped they tell you to die. if you can’t give birth to a son they try to get rid of you. men can sleep around as much as they want but a woman can do pretty much nothing. don’t get me started on how in laws treat you like a servant. it’s just so sad.

This show came to me just as I was missing weak hero class. it’s literally so good and it only gets better episode after episode. I hope we get a season 2 as well. I swear I could watch him beating people up all day.

Thank you for explaining about Yaun Tong. That makes sense. I think I must have missed that portion when they were explaining his role in everything. I knew the king planned everything out but I must have zoned out on that portion of the explanation. As for Song Han I completely understand his paranoia and even him not being able to eat unless he tests the food out with his cat. I can even understand him being afraid of his brother taking revenge on him. I just don’t understand how out of no where how he decided he wanted power and was gonna commit treason. After that he just completely changed into someone else. He was never conflicted about his actions or even hesitated a little to off his own brother or his wife’s brother. it just seemed like a crazy change to me. I completely understand that Ansu fell in love but it took about 48 hours before she started doubting her friend. I at least expected her to step in when the maid was getting slapped 10 times but she didn’t even flinch during that.

We got a lot closer to the FL in the latest episode. We know why she advocates for people and the story of what happened to her mother. They are journalist that are underfunded with higher ups trying to cancel them at every moment. We really can’t expect to see justice play out in every episode.

just finished watching the drama. I thought it was pretty good though I still struggled to understand certain characters motives. Yuan Tong for example, was a character I struggled to understand. Why was he supporting the second prince? Why did he all of a sudden switch sides at the end? I didn’t understand Song Han as well. It looked like he was hurt by his role in killing the mother that raised him so how did he go from feeling bad to wanting to murder his brother? was he a sleeper cell the whole time? it felt like zero to a hundred real quick without any justification. He was loved by his father and his mother treated him well so I don’t understand the hatred he developed for his brother overnight. They had a good relationship as kids. just made no sense to me. Ansu’s character development was difficult to understand as well. She turned her back on her bestie over a man she met a week ago is crazy work.

it’s not possible because the brother was married to the head teacher/master that we saw in the first couple of episodes. unless you are referring to a different brother.

I believe it’s the whole season. it’s only 8 episodes.

The show deserves better ratings. it’s only getting better and better.
