Vincenzo Cassano

I don't understand something. I'm on episode 5. The ML's niece started working at the FL's workplace. Why don't they recognise each other? Didn't she steal her boyfriend? Didn't they already have a confrontation earlier? Isn't that why the FL ran out of the ML's house to avoid seeing his niece?

In what episode do the leads become a couple?

Yeah, i agree their romance became less interesting after they got together, especially after she discovered his identity. I think there was another part with a female character with feelings for the ML. She was one of the characters competing to be chosen to marry the prince, but she was poisoned and died early on.

Happy ending?

How much of it is romance?

How's the romance? Any love triangles?

The leads have children? So they were married to different partners before meeting each other?

Between which characters?

I definitely love the leads and their previous works they've done. I'll watch this regardless of any negative comments.

I haven't started this yet, I'm waiting for it to finish airing. But I've noticed in the comments that the FL is annoying and doesn't know boundaries. Is she just naive, or is she just a flirt that enjoys the company of men? If it's the former and she goes through character development, then i think that's ok. But if it's the latter, well i might find this one hard to watch.

How is it so far? How's the romance? Any love triangles?

But by definition, a love triangle is a situation in which two people both love a third person, regardless of whether that third person has feelings for one or both. So technically, there's two love triangles.

Ok, that's understandable and a valid reason for liking the SML and even preferring him to be with the FL over the ML, even if personally it's not enough for me to separate the main leads. But here's the question. If the roles were reversed, and the villain was the SFL with the interesting scenes, would we still see people preferring the ML and FL to not be together and cheering for the ML to be with the SFL? I highly doubt it, and i understand why, but it goes both ways. Nevertheless, I'll support the main leads in this drama to be together.

Everyone is free to support whichever character they choose. And if you remember, in the My Dearest comments, I got hate for liking the SFL. I never criticised or insulted anyone for liking the FL over the SFL. I only gave my reasons for liking the SFL. But i remember many insulting people for defending the SFL. It's unnecessary because there is no right or wrong answer. It is just subjective based on one's personal experiences, feelings, and opinions. But I'm curious, let's take this drama for example. If the roles were reversed, and the villain was the SFL with the interesting scenes, would we still see people preferring the ML and FL to not be together and cheering for the ML to be with the SFL? We can even look at My Dearest. What if the Qing Princess was a Qing Prince? Would there still be hate towards that character? I doubt it because he would become the typical handsome "bad boy" character that many love. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but it goes both ways. In any case, just like in Strong Girl Bong Soon, i will be routing for the ML and FL to be together no matter how boring his character is.

I'm everywhere😂 But honestly, I'll support the ML and FL, always have always will. I rarely support SFL's, but if i do, it's for two reasons. Firstly, and mainly if the ML is treated poorly by the FL. Secondly, it's to provide balance and fairness to the SFL. If i see a SFL getting hate for merely having feelings for the ML, then I'll support her in the comments. But I'll still want the ML and FL to end up together. Now let's see what happens in this drama. From the comments i can already see the majority wanting the FL to end up with the SML because he's handsome and a "bad boy." So he's the villain and a SML, but he's still preferred over the ML. So tell me, has the ML treated the FL poorly? Has he rejected her, pushed her away, or did anything to hurt her emotionally or physically? Because if he hasn't, i find it odd for the SML to be getting so much support from viewers.

Yes, that's also true and actually still happens regarding your comment about second lead syndrome. That's the typical SML with traits such as kind, caring, supportive, and protective. He'll also need to be handsome. They usually have feelings for the FL early on and last throughout the whole drama. In fact, these SML's are very common. What you'll notice is that the SFL equivalent is very rare. We rarely see SFL's with feelings for the ML with those traits i mentioned earlier applying to the SML. SFL's are usually evil psychotic characters intent on harming the FL to keep her away from the ML. I guess because the majority of viewers are female, most don't want to see a SFL with better traits than the FL because then she'll be worthy of the ML.

Unfortunately, that's normal in dramaland. Viewers prefer handsome bad boys over nice guys. That's one of the reasons we see the term "second lead syndrome" thrown around all the time. It's funny because this actually happens in reality, and then they wonder why they get hurt, treated poorly, and cheated on. Then when we come across a beautiful SFL involved with the ML then all hell breaks loose and the SFL will be crucified with anyone who sides with her in the comments, and suddenly the term "second lead syndrome" doesn't apply anymore. It seems to me there are double standards. I haven't started watching this yet, but i understand what you're saying. I mean, anyone is free to like whichever character, it's just their preference, but personally, i don't care about their gender or beauty, as long as there's a ML and FL, I'll always route for them.

I'll be starting this when it's finished airing. How is it so far? How's the romance? Any love triangles?

Yep, you're in a worse situation. And they really do seem like brother and sister. But i also don't like the thought of the FL with anyone other than the ML.

I'm considering watching this, but just a few questions. From the description, it seems there might be a few male characters with feelings for the FL? How far back does she travel to the past? So if the ML was the mastermind behind the rebellion, then they're enemies?
