Idk, but to me Ji hoon is not HJ son. His character is more like KJ than HJ. And HJ clearly told he didn't feel any attraction to Bo hee as well. You need to remember that the current HJ is the 93 HJ who didn't date BH. I think you shd put your self to HJ shoes. What if suddenly you went to the future & told by some ppl around you that some random person is your husband/wife & you also had a son. When you didn't even like her/him nor feel any attachment. Will you trust them? Will you take responsibility for an action you didn't commit? I don't think so. And I think HJ action is natural & consistent with his character, which is more self centric because he has no parent & lived alone all this long. At least he has some conscience & care for them. You can't ask him to take the responsibility, when JH father is still unclear because BH never said HJ is the father, KJ just take an assumption based on other ppl assumption, what if it's YJ & Cathy spread rumors & set it up like it's HJ?

Agree @ClaudiaKdramaFan WS position is the same as Mi yeong, it's pretty much the lowest rank & they use it as a plot driven to make our heroine getting close to our male lead, to show us how he care for her :)
If there's to complain maybe on how cold WS seems like, but it's also understandable, I get where is she came from, it must be hard for her who came from a broken family, who was abandoned & feel neglected, to trust & open her heart to other people.

Not yet @ClaudiaKdramaFan only watching it raw, I still think HJ is not his father, but the given clue, I think I read it all wrong, lol.

Lol, yes she is clumsy but she's def not a useless heroine, she has a strong character, not a weak one, it's just she is a trainee so ofc she has no power in the office. I think you get it wrong, Woo seung has been clumsy from ep 1, it's her character so it would stayed like that. I had a friend whom I known for 15years, she is clumsy since the very first time I met her & she stayed that way no matter how hard she tried to be not one. At least Woo seung is a girl with spine so she's not a frustating one for me. I hate a useless heroine who need to be saved all the time too, ie. Go Ara in Hwarang, Yoona in K2, but I'm ok with Woo Seung because she is not a weak person, she is independent, a hardworker & outspoken. Only not in her office because she is a trainee, a person should know where she stands, right?
And I think being clumsy =/= being useless, it's a total different story. It's too harsh to categorized her that way esp to call her an idiot? I think it's too much. I love my clumsy friend, just because she is clumsy doesn't mean she is an idiot/useless person, it's just something you're born with.

No worry it was revealed on today's ep & I love that scene :D

Ikr, am so excited to know what's his purpose to come, but I think he'll let it pass for the sake of Byun's fam, but Hye Yeong may found out later from the DNA result

@namopanik Actually the coda was revealed on today's ep, but it's not what I think it is. TT I'm lost, lol. Yes & agree, this drama can get a total 40ep & I wouldn't mind, there's a lot of thing can be explore/hasn't been explored yet. I hope the ending won't be too rushed & we can get enough closure, a happy one I hope

Yes, just had a chance to watch it live, though I don't understand what are they talkin' about, lol X'D

This drama, seriously? There're only 4 ep remain (well basically it's only 2 ep in their old format) & I had no idea how they'll ended their story. All my theories were proven wrong on ep 28, lmao X'D jinjja.... Ugh, am not ready for their final week, I'm gonna miss this drama for sure TT

Agree! Both are far better than this, yes to more project like Empress Ki or Healer.
To me Empress Ki was his very best performance ❤

Wait, Lee Joon with Oh yeon seo on WGM? @ClaudiaKdramaFan ?? I'd never thought of that, lol X'D is it good?

Idk, but am watching with subs & it's written from Yoo hyun jae to Lee soon tae :)

They're pretty inconsistent, this is how I feel about each of their ep:
Ep 1 > Ep 2 < Ep 3 > Ep 4
The directing, acting & flow of the stories felt off/random for me + their jokes are more ridiculous than funny. But I want to know more about their stories so I'll stick for a while. Imo, just try to watch the first 4 ep to decide whether you like it or not

Yes, looking by the written preview for next ep more likely that way too. We're running out of time, right? at this point will we still had the time to have a happy ending for our ship?huhu.. I hope for an extension but I know it's impossible knowing their rating. We only have 3 ep left, ottokke, I'm having a withdrawal already TT

I think that letter the past HJ send to Soon Tae but left unopened will play a big role, I wonder what that is, 26ep in & we're still confused as hell, lol

Yes, I agree both Yeong & Yeok had their own wrongdoing, and now they're bad in their own way. Actually one of the reason why I love Q7D is because of how great the story being told like a two tail of coins but we can't see clearly which one is the wrong side or the right one cause both may seems right from their own POV. True that Yeonsangun may turn evil to the point there'll be no way back for him, but I pity him & my heart is aching because we get to see his journey & what led him that way. What could've been if he had a loving parents who trust him. How he suffers & torn with his own inner conflict between his ideal mind & his paranoia & how it's eating him alive.
Oh, did he try to kill his brother before? I may have missed that, to my knowledge the ppl around him was trying to make him do that, but he only got him (young Yeok) excile, he tried to kill him over & over but it was only in his dreams from the nightmares he had, true that he found out minister Im was the one who responsible to the death of young Yeok & he let it slide because how relieve he is to get over from his paranoia, but I didn't remember he tried to kill Yeok especially without CK knowing. Regarding CK marriage, while the end result might be the same, imo the impact for CK's mind would be very different. There's a huge difference if one had to marry someone because you're forced to do it & you had tried your best to avoid it as you could. With one who marries because you were so foolish/blinded by love & unknowingly got your own family's life at stake.
True, it's nice to discuss & see from eachother POV & 7DQ is perfect for that ^^

It depends on your POV, for me no matter Yeok loves CK or not, or he did the treason for the ppl he care or not, he is using her from the moment he keep the truth from her, he only tells lies after lies after lies. CK has the right to chose her own destiny, if she wants to marry Yeok, she had to know what kind of marriage she is into from Yeok & decided by her own. More than physical wound, emotional wound is no less painful. I can see her blaming herself on how she dragged her family into this mess/deaths by marrying Yeok. Imo that would be more painful than the death sentences itself.
And I don't really think Yeok marries CK for her sake, it's more for himself so Yeonsangun can't have her. No matter how evil Yeonsangun may have become, he at the very least tells CK the truth what kind of marriage she is into, that he wants her to be his spy, that he think Yeok was planning for a treason. Yeonsangun may become a good king, we see how a simple word from CK makes a better him. if only the late king welcome him to the family & shower him with love, instead of making that darn secret letter, he'd be a better person, if Yeonsangun is a monster, then he is the monster created by his father. And he drag both son's life + CK to hell because of that darn letter/will. I doubt that Yeok will become a good king, because he may have a good intention for his ppl, but the ppl behind him has their own greed & more power than him, including his mother. So he need to be strong & smart to know how to dealt with it, to overcome it. Sadly imo, Yeok is not that smart/strong nor have enough will to become a capable king. And if this drama follow the history well, then he won't become a good king either. Which is ironic, knowing how many ppl suffers from it.

I think it's the opposite, Yeok seems to be greedy or too overwhelmed by wanting both power & love, thus it makes Chae Kyung's life & her whole fam in danger. If he chose Iove, he shd have dropped his plan to rebel. If he chose power he shouldn't marry Chae kyung so her life won't be drag into this mess he created. He may unable to overcome the will of those ppl behind him but also can't bear the idea for not being able to be with Chae kyung. If so, I don't think he is able to protect her, like the scene we get to see earlier on ep 1

I had to disagree @GraceLee I'd never root for some villain merely because his looks, no matter how great his look is, I even hate some LDG character in his previous works although he was the main lead there. For me it's more because how great his acting here (LDG is nailing it) & great character's writing, I can see his inner struggling/conflict between the bad side & the good side of him, his lacks of love & feelings to be betrayed that cause his turmoil. Love how smart he is compare to Yeok who for me seems so incapable to be the king & keep telling lies to his lover. I won't justified Yeong's bad behaviour at all, but I can understand the situation that led him that way. Lol, it feels like seeing Seong Yoon Ah in the K2 all over again. The villain is the most intriguing one
It depends on your POV though, but no matter which side are you, this drama is beautiful, beautifully painful XD

Yes to JH-MY wedding & their babies ❤ I'd love to see their marriage life,like the one in Laurel tree tailors.
@GiKnoth ikr, Lee joon is so adorable with baby william till idk who's more adorable, Lee Joon or William, lol
