Especially the mom with her fancy dress. :O

I really have trouble with this character. She's written to be so "evil" that she is like a "fairy tale evil step-mother". It's way too much over-the-top to my taste. If she have any redemption arc, I will scream as I don't see how anyone could forgive her even if she turn a new leaf.

A bit sad that they didn't made a scene with their childrens. Quite a bit of a miss Opportunity. Overall, the last few episodes felt a bit rushed to close up all loose end. But it was still a good drama.

They are in the neutral zone (The Uncontroled ?) dealing with the new trade center made by the 3 nations.

I'm all for the son-in-law gang. It's getting bigger and bigger. I hope we will see more bro being bro sweet moments (until they came to their wives and spill all the bean :P).

Well, not really. I agree that they need to break up if their relationship make them miserable. Then they can do whatever they want. But it's a drama so I'm waiting how it will unfold. I'm very curious at how it will end because J-Drama have really a thing with unusual ending.

Yes. But like you said, it's IRL logic. Drama are made purely for entertainment. Their are illogical on their base core. You nitpick on this scene but all of this situation isn't logical to begin with. Like flaunting that he have a double agenda with the other female CEO. It isn't the smartest move. Trying to humiliate her in public just because, isn't also that smart.

We can nitpick at every scenes if we follow this logic as it isn't a documentary about being the best CEO.

And just to be clear, I also have those moment where I do tell myself "Yeah, it's completely unrealistic" (like Yoo Eun Ho being too perfect to be human) but I watch those to turn my brain off of IRL struggle, so I'm fine with it. :D

One word: C-H-A-O-S. It's like having the scheming level of a political period drama for... a wedding between regular family. But it's sure fun to watch. :P

I was wondering why the ML had this "western" vibe. His Spanish legacy really show. :O

That was good. Like really good.

-The lead couple is fire. Cute, funny & really hot for an asian drama. The shrimp-kiss scene and palace's stair scene was so unusual for a C-Drama (especially for a PERIOD drama).
-This humor is just my jam. They blend so well serious & unserious tone. (except the poop jokes in the earlier part)
-And finally, they really made a lot of fan service here. Lot of shirtless scene. With a Kinky FL. Again, I was not expecting that in a period drama. :O

I really REALLY liked it. Both main lead nailed their role and personality wise, I loved how playful they were.

Also, I liked Liu Chang & Li You Zhen. They are character made to be hated but they aren't just that. You have a bunch of villain here that are mostly power-hungry or money-hungry without much humanity in them. But those two, they have some backstory and more depth.

They made me feel empathy for them. And it's why I hated them even more. For me, they were well written and both of them are also fantastic actors.

Kind of a grey character. The issue is mostly the writing as he is sometime super supportive and a green flag and sometime... He is kind of a jerk from ancient time. ^^

But I personally do like their interaction with the FL. If you like ennemy-to-lover troop it will appeal to you.

Is that mistranslated or the ML's childhood friend said she will marry her 9-y old brother ? :O

It's not exactly like that. It's custom to marry the oldest children first. Their first daughter was married and now is a widow. The second is already married. So now, it's the third turn.

After seeing the trailer of this I already knew it wasn't for me but I still give it a shoot. And... Yeah, it's just not for me at all. Everything was said in comments below so I will not elaborate more. It's just I can't say I'm disappointed as I didn't have any expectation to begin with. ^^'

And on another note. What the deal with her mother ? He is adopted or what ? Or he is the illegitimate child of his father ? Oo

I can't see a mother going so hard to make her child suffer just to get back at her ex-husband. I already struggle to see that if my theory is right to be honest. She is a bit like a cartoonish villain with her cocky "secretary" doing her evil doing. I don't expect any depth to this character but I still hope I'm wrong.

I don't think it will happen but when Jin said all his friend group (with Phu) were odd & after learning he could read mind, I was wondering if all of them would have "superpower" like in a Marvel with Phu as a Queen Bee (as he also did attract Cir) for some reason. :P

But the others don't give this vibe, so I don't think it will go this far. I'm also confused at how many here are 100% certain that Cir just lie or have mental issue about all this parallel universe theory. Because so far, it's strongly hint that everything he experienced his "real" and couldn't be explained with just him having mental issue. :o

Or maybe I'm gullible. Also, the trailer of this show also hinted that it was truly a parallel universe setting. But maybe it was for misleading us ? I don't know. It's just that I see everyone saying it isn't that.

PS: If it's because you have spoiler, please don't respond as I don't want to get spoiled. But feel free to share if it's just what you think based on what we already saw. :)

Sad you think that way.

Yeah, I was also surprised with ML being fine with that idea and even FL doing "apparently" nothing (as like I said, it's not show that she informed her sister) when she discovered that scheme. She still left her sister in the dark to be honest.

I don't really know if she was traumatized or she was acting to make him spill the bean. I could be wrong as it's unclear & really clumsy writing here.

And from what I understood for their storyline is to "educate" him into a decent human being so they show first how "trashy" he is first to have a more clear character growth.
