Italophilia Finally, their true feelings are out. And it seems she has been his comfort for 20 years. I can see how that would make her his weakness. I love the sports competitions - Baek Sa Eon and Hong Hee Joo were really competitive. They were there to win.

Baek Sa Eon had been hiding his wife for her safety because she IS his weakness. As it turns out, he was telling the truth at that birthday shindig. And during the pre-wedding phone call between him and Hong In A where she says, she's doesn't want to go through the arranged marriage; otherwise, she'll reveal his secrets, he tells her it will happen anyway, but not with her, with her sister Hee Joo instead (he was trying to protect Hee Joo from an undesirable arranged marriage). Then, that last line, when Baek Sa Eon finally utters the magic words, "She's my wife." I actually got butterflies in my belly.

That final rooftop scene felt like a gut punch to me. I mean I was confused when he gave up school because I felt like Shin was the most important to him, and sure enough - we get that scene. When Saint said those words, I viscerally felt it and tears just ran down my face. Sky and Nani's acting has really impressed me. Their faces are so expressive.

DoHoe seems to be blaming JuYeong for something, but instead of coming out and saying what it is, DoHoe just said I'm not interested in why you did that then just ghosted him. Now, he's saying, I didn't want to tell you where I am because you might misunderstand. What is that? It's like he's denying their joint history, making JuYeong feel stuck in the past and unable to move on because he was unable to get closure. I think the reason JuYeong continued to visit DoHoe's father was because he was the only connection he had to DoHoe after DoHoe abandoned him. In the end, they probably needed each other, one whose son abandoned him and one whose parents abandoned him.In high school, it was obvious HyeonHo liked DoHoe. It looks like he sought him out in university and was the only one who was in touch with him. They might even be dating now, so DoHoe didn't want JuYeong to look for him anymore despite their dreams together. I still think DoHoe should have been straightforward and told JuYeong his reason for staying away.

Seeing all their interactions: date to see Seoul, eat together, support each other's dreams. It was so heartwarming. Ugh, but that Dad was the worst ever. How could a community support that kind of behavior?

So, they actually confessed to each other in this episode, but it felt flat. Before, it was employee-employer with benefits and Pat didn't always know where he stood in Elyes's life/priorities. But, now, we have Elyes saying, "I can't live without you." Isn't that more than saying, "I love you?"

I'm liking this version so much more. Instead of Aim cheating with so many guys, she's portrayed more like Phun, who's accepting his sexuality more but after being in a relationship. Of course, the ideal course of action would have been if Aim and Phun broke up first before pursuing other people. Then, we have Gracey, formerly Golf, who I'm assuming is transgender. In the OG 2014 version, Golf was also the one who outed Aim's behavior to Noh. Lastly, Yuri and Noh are not dating in this version which makes more sense. I never understood why they did in the OG version except that Noh was a bit of a pushover and Yuri was insistent.

She's an awesome Empress, just learning to not be in her family's shadow and just healing from their abuse, but eventually, she'll learn to fly, I hope. I also hope the Emperor will learn to love her for who she is.

I was so reluctant to watch this episode. My heart could not take her rejection of him, again and again. So happy they finally realized what they valued most in life.

Even after ML and FL broke up, ZiYu still couldn't approach FL. And when he finally finds her in the palace, she rebuffs him, for good reason, IMO. I mean, ZiYu has aligned himself with Prince Sui and is now offering to help her... I wouldn't trust that aid. If anything ZiYu will likely protect Prince Sui.Then, ZiYu felt like he needed to parade MianTang where XingZhou was out walking. That's insecurity and using the FL as property to be shown off and not treating her a real person.

Kept me engaged, made me laugh, nice OST. So far, it's a good start. The nice visuals don't hurt.

I was wondering if he would be brave enough to refuse his marriage to his cousin and I was disappointed that he was going through with it. If that imperial decree didn't arrive on time, he would be married to a scheming woman while someone else waited for him, which is just despicable.

Phun having distinct recollections of every meeting he had with Noh... wow, he has liked Noh for many years. The fake Faen was just a set-up to finally have a chance to get close to him. But it back-fired. Instead of being able to say, okay, we can be close friends, it made Phun realize he wanted Noh and it made Noh realize he liked Phun. It was a cute, but painful, moment to see them decide that they can have feelings but not act on them. As if feelings can be set aside that easily. As we see, these two are truly "love sick" for each other. No rational decision will change that.

he was already in Jiang Tian's sights. JT who doesn't show any feelings, who looks annoyed at the world all the time, actually smiled at the sight of this transfer student.

I don't think I've seen Kohei smile as much as he has in this episode. Whenever he thinks of Taichi (which is often), he is smiling. It is heartwarming.
