Reading the comments below, thank you for such valuable information. I have watched the first two episodes and enjoying it.

Let me tell you...Dai is FIRE!!! He is too fine. I believe someone mentioned about the chemistry between him and the FL. Gurl, I agree with you 100%. His other co-star in Forever Love. He was working, do you hear me, working those kisses on her.

Seeing him in high school, child please, the girls would be flipping over that fine man. I cannot with Dai. The editing is lame but to see Dai, mercy! Can the man kiss or what?

Ok, I don't even know what to say.

The ending did nothing for me at all. I felt this drama started out strong and lost its course along the way and became lackluster, dull, boring and dragged out an ending that could have been done sooner.

For those who may want to know what the ending song is, it is called "Wave" by Taeil (yes, I am obsessed with this song)

@Kiskasay thank you so much. I literally have my friends wait for me to post because they say I make it so much better. They crack up. 😊😊😊

@MadMarti yes for those reasons as well. But he knows that even though she threatened him helped him get the throne, he knows QP still uses her and she is loyal to him so she will tell him. But that is all about to change. She now knows the deal about KMW. Here come more threats to Li. She is so mad. I’m hearing pregnancy too for KMW.

@MadMarti I agree. That chick had a get out of free card when QP’s main girl saw CLD talking to her. She should have left and gone straight back to the imperial doctor.

I’m trying to figure out who offers her the pill. Well you know Li can’t stand her. He just keeps her around because of QP.

@MadMarti well you know crazy CLD is one hot sister because Li is with KMW. You know she is going to try and tell it but I hope she dies before that! 😂😂😂

@Sixx thanks!!! I can't wait either. This drama is killing me.

@DyingtobeinKorea You got my back. Thanks! Updated!

Let me tell you...it is about to go down tomorrow in that palace. Li is not even playing. He is going turn that mother out! I cannot wait to see the happenings.

Recap:

Well, JSH got a shocker didn't he. Say what? KMW is a woman. He never saw that coming. But Li was in hyper mode. And you could not blame him. If he could have called the whole damn palace to help KMW, you know he would have. But I get that JSH has to protect Li, but come on, he has no time to listen to all this palace BS about the assassin. Boy bye. Don't you see his woman is down from saving him. Get real!

Now, am I going to have to worry about JSH loyalty here? He is looking a bit shaky when Li is telling him to do things. Then doing his side deal with the imperial doctor. Hmm...

Queen Park, meanwhile, was at her palace crib trying to get CLD to do her bidding. But you know she is not even hearing her. We all know QP can't stand CLD. Best line from QP tonight: "That insolent wench."

Everyone is just trying to creep around the palace to get out to help Li with KMW. But you know CLD she is always slithering around somewhere and tries to find out what's up, but she gets stonewalled at every corner. But she does finally get the inside story from one of the aides that was with the imperial doctor who lets it out that KMW is a female.

Yes, gushing once again on my cutie pie CP. Isn't he just adorable? He told Li he still had to see QP even if she basically dogged him out and made him wait. Well, Li wasn't having that and gave QP a smackdown. The first of the evening.
Li to QP: "I have failed to consider the agony you are going through, Mother. For the time being until your sorrow subsides, I shall have a palace eunuch greet you on the Crown Prince's behalf." Yes, Li. I cannot with you...a eunuch, wow!

When CP ask Li about seeing KMW it was too cute. He was all choked up when he asks him. That was such a sweet moment between those two. I hope to see more of that.

Yeah, KMW daddy is alive. Like that!!!

Best Moment - Li Explains Himself:
KMW: "You sure have returned quickly. Your Majesty. I thought you would never come."
Li: "I wanted to come running as soon as I heard you were awake, but I could not bear myself to face you."
KMW: "The sight of a traitor like me would understandably distress you."
Li: "It was because of my crime, not yours. The crime that began three years ago and still continues to this day."
KMW: "Your crime? What do you mean by that?"
Li: "All your actions...were all that I wished for. If I had not wished for them, I would not have made you the gidaeryeong, given you access to Yeongchwijeong, or kept you at the Grand Prince's side. I would have punished and expelled you when Prince Jangryeong was substituted. I would have punished you harshly for high treason when your advice prompted the Queen to urge the Great Lord to petition for the Grand Prince's appointment as the Crown Prince during assembly."
KMW: "But Your Majesty, you threatened to have me killed if I sought any patron other than you when I first entered Yeongchwijeong."
Li: "I only did so...to scare you enough to make you act with caution. But seeing you refuse the Queen Dowager's offer changed my mind. I appointed you the Grand Prince's master to avoid the Queen Dowager and the Principal Director's keen eyes and finally carry out what I intended to do. Appointing Grand Prince Munseong as the Crown Prince. I took advantage of you. I used you as my shield to veil my doings.
KMW: "Even if your words are true, the crimes I committed against you do not go away."
Li: "I assume you could not bring yourself to forgive me for what I did to you three years ago."
KMW: "That was not the reason. In the evening Principal Director Park Jong-hwan intruded into Yeongchwijeong without your permission. I was there. I hid myself and heard what you said to him."
(flashback)
Li: "And thus...you decided to kill me because you became afraid and sick of me."
KMW: "Had that been the case...had I become sick of you, I would have discarded the plan to harm you and made a rational decision to wait for the Grand Prince's chance. The man whom I love revealed his true nature before me as a treacherous and depraved king just as I have long known. And yet, my love for you did not diminish. Instead of diminishing, it only grew so painfully strong that it swayed me. That is why I decided to assassinate you. It was to prevent myself from becoming more captivated by you and to protect the Grand Prince who was appointed the Crown Prince."
Li: "Do you hear my heart beating? Do you hear the mad, racing heartbeat overcome with joy? I will not lose you ever again. I will protect you."

Best smackdown No. 2 for the evening:
PJH: "Your Majesty. What shocking event is this? Captain Joo Sang-hwa of the Special Firearms Unit should be punished harshly for his negligence."
Li: "He has committed no crime for the traitor's blade did not reach me."
PJH: "The heavens have truly helped. I have looked into Chu Dal-ha's past doings on my way here.
Li: "Indeed? You may report them to me."
PJH: "Yes, Your Majesty. To speak the truth, Chu Dal-ha was a spy who was caught by the Qing three years ago. He currently works as a butcher in Bachon Village with Gidaeryeong Knag Mong-woo as his patron. Due to the grudges, they hold for the incident three year ago, Kang Mong-woo and Kim Myung-ha must have given the order to assassinate you. I shall have them sent to the State Tribunal for interrogation. Please approve of this."
Li: "Principal Director. This interrogation is not to investigate Chu Dal-ha's crimes. He has already confessed his crimes."
PJH: "Then...what is this interrogation for?"
Li: "Chu Dal-ha made a report. He reported the spy who put this nation at risk and asked that their crime be brought to light. I have long awaited this day. The capital traitor who joined hands with the Qing and put this nation and its people in a crisis. I will find that vile spy and have them punished for high treason. I will have their disgraceful name engraved in the records...so that the people of this nation...will remember their crime."

The stare down was on!!! Li meant what he said to PJH. He is going to seriously rock the palace this next episode. Yes!!! I cannot wait to see it all go down. QP is looking scared of PJH. Oh snap, are they asking CLD to kill herself. Yeah!!!

@Lailamajnun no she does not, she is in love with him. She tries to assassinate him, but he knows everything that was about to go down.

@Lailamajnun no he rejected her!

Wow, wow, wow...what is going on here.

Looks like YJS's father handle the situation by having the psychiatrist block his mind from the memory of his mother's death. So, let's analyze this.

1. It could be that YJS saw who killed his mother and the shock was too much.
2. His half-brother was the one that has something to do with YJS's mother dying.
3. The mother did it herself and didn't mean too. It was an accidental death.
4. I don't think that YJS killed his mother it might have again, been an accident.

It seems that the father wasn't home and only YJS was or was he. Was there someone else home besides him?

Biggest mystery to be solved. I hate that he won't be with the team since his memory that was block comes back. He will, I hope, get the team to look into his mother's death.

I have to say, again, this drama started out well, but WTH happened? I am exhausted with KYJ.

The stupidity is ongoing. First of all, there are so many unanswered questions that we just bounced right over and focused on the whole KYJ, "I hate SJW." that nothing else matters.

Can we say how dumb the police were with not putting an APB like asap on KYJ. Or wait, here's a thought telling the folks at the airport that SJW's daughter is rolling back in town. SJW when she was driving at breakneck speed to the airport, calling them and telling them her daughter was coming in and don't let her go with anyone. Maybe just because the daughter says that she knows her you do a double check to make sure. Like can I see some ID. That was just stupidity there for real.

Going back to where KYJ lived to get clues or talking more to NTJ to find out more information on KYJ. Where are we with KYJ's guy that was helping her out? Did he tell them anything or give up anything? Go to her dad and see what he thinks she would go?

I mean, this drama to me after the husband died, just went downhill. Now, we are going to spend how much time in the last episode looking for the daughter, having her put the company back to number one and then having YTO (new do) confess his love to her. Yeah, I guess that's what they are calling the happy ending. But she is still popping those pills to maintain her sanity.

Ok, I think we are all on the same page as I have read the comments...Dai is FINE AS HELL!!!

This drama has the most horrible editing.

Hello...Hello...powers that be put this man in a better drama, ok! He has it going on!

OMG, can we talk about the hypnosis. Hilarious!!! This drama is too much.

Friendly reminder...

Please make sure that you are using the "spoiler tag" if you are going to reference any plot lines. I do know that some of us are at episode 14, such as myself and others at episode 6.

Let us all enjoy discussing together but make sure to use the "spoiler tag."

Thank you!

You all know that Chen Shi is my man. So adorable. But I know the crew is going to come and save him from that water peddler. That guy knows nothing about his brother or if he does, he is more than likely dead.

@DramaLlama915 I am watching on iQIYI where I have VIP and we are up to episode 14. If you go to dramacool (https://dramacool.com.pa/) they are at episode 14 as well.
