Ok next fact about episode 48; yes I'm dissecting it now lol. Ah Sun was resigned to his execution, made peace with it, and when he closed his eyes he undoubtedly saw CG in his mind. So when she appears to rescue him with She'er as "hostage", disbelief turns to slight fear (he stares at her and his head shakes a bit like "no don't do this, you're in danger") to holy crap she ain't alone with the arrival of the elves. You can see it in his eyes the comprehension/realization that this is a very preplanned gig with many ppl after the first arrow is fired at uncle assholes feet and CG saying "who said I was alone?". Then he sees her place her thumb btwn the blade and bros throat at realizes he's in on it too. He's a very smart man, a strategist, a general; did he really think that CG; the woman who led whole armies, was his level if not more sometimes of strategy, who loved him as much as he her, would really just chill on a couch in Chang'an and let the crazy bitch from hell harpoon him? Smart men, aren't always that smart. Thoughts?

Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet lol.

You win some, you lose some. Perhaps something got lost in translation. ~shrugs~

LMAO; you can search YouTube for elf fight scenes from either trilogy and you'll see what I'm saying.

Why cut one episode? They usually do like 3 or more. Weirdo system.

Exactly! When they're running on the rooftops, shooting arrows especially XF is totally channeling Legolas in his rapid fire shooting.

That's it; I'm calling Shiba and XF "the elves" from now on; Legolas and Tauriel! The phrase in my head as they arrive on the scene of 48 on the rooftops is "the elves have arrived." Even at the end of sword fight in 48, Shiba jumps down from the roof in the same elegant manner elves do. Perfect for them. This is for folks who know LOTR/Hobbit references.

She probably is. Proper makeup and lighting can make a 20 year old look 70.

Yes, this is a common occurrence on this site; even my iPad glitches sometimes. A message that usually takes 30 seconds to type, here takes 3 minutes.

It's called to each his own.

This thing was primarily filmed last summer I believe so she was being quite careful.

You're def not crazy. I'd say it's my second drama that I have such a strong attachment to but I've seen multiple of their modern and costume dramas. I think the emotional attachment to the characters and the storyline means production and cast accomplished what they set out to do.

Thank you! I'll go look now before returning to my rewatching.

He had seen CG put her thumb between the blade and She'er's throat, so he realized his bro was in on it. You have watch that portion of the scene carefully. It happens right before he says "I'm fine" to his mom.

Actually quick correction/addition, prior to the final seconds of the episode the last time Ah Sun wears his Tegin outfit is in that same episode when he gives chase to uncle asshole and She'er and then rescues CG from the burning palace after letting Wolf division and She'er leave to live freely.

It's an American catchphrase "everyone including the kitchen sink". Meaning literally everyone humanly possible. XD

Even the celibate one didn't bat an eye which showed his growth and maturity as well.

I get it; doubt it though.

Thanks, it could just be the fact I rewatch certain things a lot lol.

Well Dilraba can sing, can Leo?
