That's nice... Quit my job a couple of years ago and working from home now so no possibility to talk K drama with anybody.... But my former colleagues were mostly males anyway. They were either in western TV series, Comics and video games... So no chance on that front...

Can you spoil the ending? I wanted to watch that drama but I saw LOTS of comments complaining about the ending so I ended up putting my watching on hold indefinitly...

Btw, on a side note, I bought some Kopiko sweets a while ago. After seeing it in some many K dramas, I thought it was a Korean brand but apparently it's actually from Indonesia.

Well, I'm not really a sweet type of person. if it wasn't for K drama brainwashing, I'd never have bought those ( It's not sold everywhere in my country, you have to go to small shops specialized in Asian products).

I'm not sure there's any caffeine in those to by honest. It does taste like coffee but it doesn't wake sheep.

The sweet is nice though.

So true. The episode was too cute. When it's too cute you know it's gonna go downhill at some point.

Man... HOW I HATE MONDO PAST AND PRESENT!

OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!!!

Yeah EXCEPT! So far the preview has always followed the same pattern: Sweet beginning followed by a drama filled second half.

It's the first time since the beginning of the drama that the preview is full of angst from start to finish.

Of course, it doesn't mean next episode won't have any light hearted moments ( the writer has been great so far on that front) but we can expect way more drama thanlight-hearted moments especially since we're near the end and the biggest conflicts need to be resolved.

Especially execute the King and send Mundo to prison. Sorry for his son but his father is a fudging murderer.

Same here! At some point we do need to get rid of the big villain. Better they do it in episodes 11 and 12 so that we can spend more time with both couple reuniting with their "right person" in their own time in episode 13 and 14. There's nothing worse than resolving the biggest conflict at the very end and having close to no happy epilogue especially since whether in the past or the present, they're just so adorable together, we need to give "both" couples enough moments together.

(Though that preview was awful)

It's definitely some Isekai due the presence of the comet. Once the comet has passed, every soul is back to its right place. The reason why Se gye has avoided being "isekaied" is because he's been taking meds for years imho.

For me Mundo is going down next week both in the past AND in the present because there's just too much to cover even without him in the final week. From what was showed the Grand Prince wasn't executed but exiled. Probably in order to be executed but that doesn't mean that he truly was.

Fiction rule n°1: If you don't show the body, then you can't be 100% sure the character is dead.

SO. My take is, she's back to the past and now it's pay back time for the King and she changes the past with the Grand Prince.

In the present they get rid of Mundo. Also I think that Se Gye's actually took meds because like Seo Ri, his past soul occasionally popped up. So they're both back in their own time and they're Se Gye's is ultimately going to realize that Shin Seo Ri Modern version is none other than the same person... because they share the same soul or something...

Or so I hope.

That's the theory I have. If it's well executed it could work. We haven't seen a lot of Shin Seo Ri so we don't really know how different she is from her past self...

Well yeah sadly... So Seo Ri is probably back in her head... I think we're heading towards both souls being melded. I don't mind this development though. They're doing it now so there's 4 episodes to get used to the idea and see the transition.

Also it seems the Grand Prince wasn't killed in the past but rather exiled so it's possible she can reunite with him in the past... I don't know? I'm a bit confused...

BUT it's still WAY better to do it now than what they did with Mr Queen which was extremelly frustrating. Ultimately, whether a concubine or a famous actress, it's the same soul, i.e the same person.

For me It's just her being back to normal and maybe Shin Seo Ri's present soul blended with the one in her past and getting more spunk...

Ok no... I don't know. I don't know how I feel. I'm just gonna trust the writer 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Yes I caved in and watched that preview.

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

That's all I have to say...

Some people watched it live on SBS (using a VPN) or you use a VPN and you go on SBS youtube channel. where small 1 to 2 mn scenes are posted while the episode is being aired so even if the episode is not yet available on Netflix, you can still know what is happening。

Note to self: Stop watching the preview. It always starts well only to end on a stressful/sad/angsty note.

Can't disagree with you... But still K2 could have been slightly kinder in his rejection. You're only talking about the present Yoo Jin but the show hinted a lot about the fact that she used to be a very kind person before she fell in love with s***ball who only used her. That would destroy anybody's character.

I didn't say her character didn't make sense. The way she was, was in accordance with the way she was raised... she was hella irritating though. But I wrote in length in other comments why I think this character didn't deserve as much screentime so I will refrain from saying more.

Thanks for the info ^^ I guess even after all these months they couldn't come up with a plan B.

I mean there might be some themes that are similar but it's not like you can influence the past in the present in that show... But no matter the similarities between both shows... Signal was a banger, and Jirisan was a snoozefest. I think they should have worked on the second season of Signal sooner, before making Kingdom. That was the mistake imho but too late.

I still think they're gonna air it though... I'm betting on Christmas Holidays of this year.

I still think tvN is thinking of this show as a hit and just decided for the whole media circus to die down a bit.

Err Have you watched Jirisan? These two shows are entirely different...
As for the rest, well. I've got nothing to add.

True but in this case I did find serious articles about it. this being said, that's his private life. As long as he's not a rapist and/or a pedophile, I will never understand the need for boycotting an actor because he's a cheater. BUT I do feel it's unfair compared to other bios on the website, just sayin'

Lol you just need to have the last word right? I was plenty short at the beginning, you basically could have said that at my 3rd comment but you strayed off topic. Don't worry, I won't bother with another comment even if you post something else. You'll get the last word 🙄.
