just finished watching Ep 6 and i am soo liking the over all vibe of this drama. There is no excessive production design to show affection (which i find so tacky especially in C-dramas, lol). The sexual tension is played out in a subtle way and both leads are charismatic. I hope the last 2 Eps will not disappoint.
I'm only on episode 5 and it's so slow, in result, makes me slow in watching it....Should i continue?
i only watched 3 episodes then i dropped it. and in those 3 episode i adjusted the speed to 1.75 so scenes will fly by faster. that's how boring it is, lol.
There are 3 things which i liked about this drama: Johnny Huang in military uniform, Johnny Huang with Er Miao, and Johnny Huang in his signature bad boy leather jacket. The story could have been way way better if they cut it to 20 eps or less. So many stupid and unnecessary characters, the bestfriend of FL topping the list. Story is convoluted and acting is sub-standard at best. I skipped most scenes coz life is short and i want to spend precious minutes of it looking at Johnny Huang.
Because it contradicts the narrative of why Yeongjo left Sado to die in the rice chest. I'm assuming that, were…
I feel for this old dude Jeongjo. He must must have lived the rest of his life in pain knowing he had his son killed and learning of the conspiracy after the fact. power is really intoxicating that people who crave it will do anything to grab it from somebody's hand and then live their lives in constant fear and doubt about who's going to steal it from them. vicious cycle, lol. RS got me invested in Joeson's past. history is a beautiful maiden that hides so many interesting, scandalous and naughty secrets. thanks for the link @LBPG.

I see. It seems the old king still showed fatherly love even if he had him killed by agreeing to Sado's last request. he kept it a secret so he does not lose face and power in front of his subjects. Joeson history sure is colorful. Thanks LBPG.
pls help me understand why there is so much secrecy about Document of Truth? dont see any logic behind it. i mean if former crowned prince gave his life so his son Yisan could take over the throne one day why keep it top secret?
The first 2 episodes are entertaining. This show looks promising. Story does not drag, characters seem ok so far, especially the FL. Nothing special about the plot but I don't care as long as story does not annoy me.
