TRUE!!!! I am putting this comment in all caps bc I want it super extra visible bc it summaries the drama perfectly :)

Yeah I was wondering about TK and Lucia hugging in public and professing love.... and Chairman coming back!!!!!
Stella will now ditch Se Ri LOL but will Se Ri be a part of Min family now and inherit everything since she is Lucia-SJ kid, not a Min kid??? I expect SJ will ditch Se Ri too LOL

I think the key to SJ's hope is that Lucia will be the Chair, as the wife of the dead Chairman :) But ... when he comes back.. will he take Se Ri as Lucia's kid.... ? bc it is inevitable he will learn soon too..

Yes indeed, SJ pulled the rug under Stella LOL
SJ actually held up a mirror to Stella... he showed her how pitifully evil hypocritical egoistical she is, ready to do ANYTHING, including killing. to get/keep for what is "HERS"

Imo he deserves it. He is a really great actor and has carried this drama. His character is most complex and his acting is most convincing.

I knew that he is great. I am glad that my assessment was confirmed in public. Thanks for letting us know!

Wow. Ok thanks for the explanation. Wow what a golden cage...

I still think too many ppl knew what she looked like -

first of all, she lived somewhere before she moved to the palace, she was someone's daughter, sister, friend, neighbor, etc... all those ppl will know her face and that she became princess....

and then everyone from the palace will know her face - guards, maids, ministers, etc. ... Well if they were there during that year she was there.

I think we will agree to disagree. She has to speak up and take care of herself, and COMMUNICATE with her husband. It is not his job to have a crystal ball and guess what is on her mind.
It is his fault never to ask.
And it is her fault to stay quiet. Like that scene when he didnt show up to babysit for her bday - that is a scene that requires a family meeting and a serious talk. He doing stuff like that is a very very very bad sign... and she MUST NOT stay quiet.
And he staying quiet when she sleeps with the kids all night long... Her doing stuff like that is a very very very bad sign... and he MUST NOT stay quiet.

They never communicated and they fell out of love and out of touch with each other. It is equally both their responsibility.

One variable is if he was the kind of guy who NEVER helped with the kids. We still do not know if he was like that from the start. Then it would be harder to talk with him... but ... talk she must :)

so funny how Lucia, TG, TJ all think Stella changed - nope she didnt LOL she just showed her true colors. She is nice as long as it suits HER interest.... It is all about HER interest.... nothing about doing things right. She is a real real slimey woozie evil villain... ready to kill if it is for HER interest.

SJ actor is most skilled so he carries the drama. Lucia and TG are really secondary characters bc the actors are quite bland and Lucia as a character is super simple. TG is also written as simple character.. MDS actor is very skilled but for some reason(s) he is on the back burner

Wow Jin Se Hun and his sister are the only ones who still have no clue about anything....
And he is a target to all kinds of scams designed to shatter his emotional and financial world... to destroy his family and to take away the family business... HIS CLOSEST ARE ALL FAKE AND SCHEMING AGAINST HIM, AND HE HAS NO CLUE. He naively thinks that his dad is a good person, that his stepmom is a good person, that his wife loves him and is a good person, that Ha Neul is a good person. HE IS ALL ALONE WITHOUT ANY ALLIES, sitting on a pot o gold that ppl are trying to steal away from him. Wow what a fate... I do feel sorry for him.
So ... he is in love and married to a fake who is using him for her greed revenge to destroy his family and company, his best friend Ha Neul has been covering it up, his father is a serial killer - has divorced then "killed" his mother, framed KB, killed who he thought was HR's kid - his stepmom has all this secret history, now he has a fake little sister whose sole purpose is to take his company, his mother-in-law has been orchestrating it just to get everything away from him...
THAT DUDE IS IN THE MIDDLE OF .... GRAND THEFT ON ALL COUNTS
Nobody here likes him bc he is kinda slimey and kinda sorta like his dad but he also seems a little more honest and I think we all feel sorry for him at this point for being a war causalty - so the question is, will he become a decent character or stay a questionmark slimey character.... ?

Well that we agree that he is arrogant LOL it comes with the territory LOL they have to be aware they are a royal .....
but does not have to be that deep :) e.g. to keep reminding Dal I every few minutes that she is a low person :)

I never said I blamed the women only. I said they are equally guilty as their men.
The one who decided to be a MOM ONLY is as guilty as her cheating husband. They never talked about anything. They just live in the same house as enemies and he does not behave as a dad much if at all. She should have talked to him about it. Yeah she is stuck with the kids and without a job and probably feels vulnerable but still - it is equally her responsibility and thus equally her fault that th marriage fell apart. It is HER responsibility to stand up for herself

ooops my bad it is listed as romance, comedy - that is listed under "genre" and I was looking at tags - so yeah it totally deserves that label, it is an amazing comedy :)

yah you are right. TG is probably already running the company behind Lucia as the acting Chair, and he should be running Mingang Co, he is the most suitable / qualified candidate

Both she and her father are TERRIBLE actors
her father looks like Rasputin and behaves like some cult leader parody LOL like a robot. She too..
It is just ... not ... it.

Well I cannot say that I have experience with real life serial killers LOL
As an amateur, I would think that a villain, no matter how psychotic they are, will have at least some moments of emoting SOMETHING.

I am basing my opinion on Tibetan master Chogyam Trungpa saying that everyone loves something, even if it is just hot enchiladas...

It is more practical to tell him she has a crush and to keep his gifts as memories and also put thm to good use... such as... meeting him in the future LOL
Also, making a scene in public with the royal prince in disguise - with th face of his dead wife - is a dumb thing to do... It is all ok though, these are not problems o the drama. I was just saying what I would do. But I dont have a royal prince to worry about LOL

As you said it is a lover's quarrel and she fully expects to be consistently meeting him although they said BYE already. Her refusal is admittance of her crush and not letting him go LOL
IF she is not going to let him go then... Imo it is a lot easier to just tell him that :) instead of making the scene in front of all kinds of people and actually losing the gifts which are memories of him and could be put to good use in the future - to meet him etc LOL
She is not practical
It's ok, every couple does things their way :) But she is stuck to a public figure so she better be more careful ... or else we will have some dramatic suffering episodes..

Hm... I disagree. Yes he is a nice guy to those near him and he is dedicated to those whom he loves, he protects, but .... also.. I think he is snotty and arrogant and likes to show off. He was nice to his wife to some degree ... but ... how many times did he remind Dal I that she is "low person".
Even the other prince told off his lover that she could order him before only bc he liked her but her status is lower than his and she should refrain. Yeah those guys are trained in that as Joseon male royals :) so now at least one is going to get untrained :) living as a "low person"

I just read this. GOD HELP US. this show COULD run forever .... as team Lucia lacks IQ but has magical powers to always get out unscratched just by sheer luck

Exactly!!! imo that is one of the key things that makes a person "bad" - total lack of self accountability :) Actually it took me a while to figure that out - that criminals always accuse you of doing what THEY are doing. I am speaking from experience, from having ncoutered those who steal condominiums in Hawaii under pretense of law.

but seems like it is good for them - the snotty royal brat is gonna learn that "those low people" ARE people and the FL will have a chance to instill some changes at the court

THANK YOU!!! YOU HELPED SO MUCH SO MANY PPL BC WITHOUT THIS EXPLANATION, THIS DRAMA IS CONFUSING TO MANY :) the dialogues in the drama where we learn about th past were too short and too fast and Eng sub was too long and too fast, and honestly impossible to follow for me and many others
