Mystery Mama

Why does this series only have 8.7 stars? It’s a gem! From storyline, plot, to acting and character development… it has everything down so far. I keep craving for more after every episode. I love that the love story is one of slow growth and development and not so fast and unnatural. You can also see the chemistry between the leads is so genuine and cute too. You can feel it exists but with constraints and it’s beautifully portrayed imho. 😂 the side characters are perfectly fitted to the story as well. The characters themselves is so relatable. I especially love the two servants who become the FL’s parents. Their love for each other is absolutely so sweet. The two veteran actors did an amazing job portraying the love for her. One of the rare c dramas where I’m wanting to cry so early on at the beginning too. Beautifully written story about women in an era of power and gender struggles.

He simply wanted her to acknowledge they have a deeper connection than just strangers. Which isn’t revealed until a little later. She seems to avoid it initially but she also doesn’t realize how deep of an impression she left him back then

Comments regarding chemistry.


For those making comparisons with LITC- please understand that the plot, story line, and characters are very different than TUS. Hence the chemistry of the characters also show up differently. I personally feel HMH an TSY have such a cute and sweet chemistry here. It’s more mature and slow burn for now. The character HMH portrays here is much more serious and in a lot more pain. They mention it multiple times he goes through 8 different suffering all stemming from the female lead. You can see his intense love even if her past life (supposedly) betrayed and hurt him. But you can also see the hopefulness he still has for love and hence he pursues and distinguishes her past life from her present life as two different females. At the core, he’s a mature demon lord with experience but optimism towards love. He hasn’t lightened up much yet but even when he does, he’s not the playful kind- he still retains that maturity- unlike HMH character in LITC.

Did anyone cry from ending of episode 8? Lol I did. It was so sad!

Anyone think he looks like Xing Zhaolin mixed with yang yang? At first I thought he was XZL. 🤣
