I'd say at the end... They seem to be back in Hanyang as the eunuch is there when they wake up.

They're cousins. The SML is the son of the king who died, while the ML is the son of the current king, who was the half brother of the previous.

But on the table or box containing the pistol, there's actually nothing to reload it, or I missed it. I looked... I'll look again but that was weird.

Empathy is best appreciated with people you don't know. Orchestrating the death of people she doesn't know simply because it inconveniences her is hardly showing empathy. Her emotions about Je-woon could be pure habit. I grew up with a sociopath with no empathy, they're good at convincing you they care when it feeds their narrative and their own importancevl in society.
But reading the comments, it's probably the actress

It's not a single barrel pistol, it's a double one. We saw it properly in episode 2.

In my previous post the puppet I mentioned was the king 😅 the crown prince has somehow the dowager on his side as she wants to avoid a grandchild of the Left minister to become king one day. The current king is the son of the king by a concubine, so his mother's family might not have had any big standing, even if noble... We'll see...

Lol yeah I see the one you're talking about 😂 loved it too.
Here he has no allies because he's basically the minister's puppet. He killed everyone. The dowager is his stepmother, so while she hates Han-cheol (he killed her son, grandson and brothers) she isn't necessarily a fan of the king either. And the others are just too afraid... I mean I would be afraid too.
But yeah it's the usual trope, and an easy one. That said many real kings in Joseon were in similar situations. I still enjoy for now, I might change my mind at one point, but I'll go on watching.

Valid and possible. But then the guy killed several people on the road (king, crown prince, at least one queen, several minister, the court physician and anyone linked to the deaths in the Gyesa year) and 5 years ago he was indeed a 'weakling'. Han-cheol created his enemy with his taunt. And his daughter is rather careless, but not without ideas, you have to admit that 😂 I'm looking forward to the rest, I do think they've been good so far at throwing us curve balls. It's a lot faster than I thought too. Usually sageuks take forever to place the pieces on the board.

Maybe she's a psychopath, she clearly lacks empathy. She lived many years in this temple with limited contact to the exterior world... It's chilling, not necessarily in a bad way for the storyline.
Or it's the actress... I must admit that I don't know her.

But he's working on his plan. He's been gathering proof about the murders in the Gyesa years. He's been training to become a fighter after Kim Han-cheol mocked him for being a coward who'd rather kill himself than kill him. So I'm not sure why you say he hasn't done anything... We reach now the moment he's getting ready for the showdown. His aim is to kill the Left minister himself. He said it twice already. He clearly wasn't expecting his daughter to try to kill him, that's for sure...

When you post publicly in a forum you ask for opinions or you would keep it to yourself 😏 if you don't want people to talk to you, scream in the void 😁 but whatever...

I didn't think she would do it, and she's even more devious than I thought in the spoilers for episode 4. It makes me chuckle. She obviously discovers he's alive quickly as she's asking for help to get him killed before he reaches Hanyang...
I like true villains 😂😁 and this is only episode 3 OMG 😂😂

Just watch something else, the selection is enormous. We all like different things, don't force yourself if you don't like.
And if you don't understand the how, you haven't paid attention to the story.

Killed? Have you watched the episode to the end? 😂😂😂 And she's definitely a villain. I can't believe I guessed she would shoot him when she looked at her pistol 😂😂

Attractiveness is subjective. Personally I find ML ten times more attractive than SML, on the FL they're both pretty and both have been enhanced by plastic surgery, the SFL more than the FL... But to each their own. This was your opinion and I doubt it's shared by the majority of the people watching, considering the popularity of those 4 actors.

Absolutely, thank you. Some comments here are beyond childish. It's 2 episodes out of 14. We all know how the introduction ones are always painful as the context needs to be explained.
Both actors are good, in looks and acting, and I'm not even talking about the crazy chemistry...

Oui c'est assez idiot. Certains commentaires ne prennent pas en compte qu'on vient d'avoir uniquement l'introduction d'une série de 14 épisodes 🤷🏼‍♀️

Okie, so you didn’t even finish the first episode… You’re absolutely entitled to your opinion, of course, but judging a whole series based on less than one episode feels a bit premature. I usually wait until at least two before deciding if something isn’t for me and if my opinion is worth posting.
My opinion here is how can anyone call any series “a copy of many I’ve seen” after thirty minutes when the whole point of the show hasn’t even started yet? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Most people are not throwing hate though, only recent posters. I'm not quite sure what you mean as you don't explain anything in your comment. Are you confused about the storyline or by the fact that most things are clear lying out in the open? What direction are you seeing? The one I see is pretty good

Most feedback are good if you scroll down. Personally I can't wait for the next episode, but it's a question of taste. I don't like when dramas make me guess about the obvious, here at least you don't have that.
