When I was a child I watched a slasher movie, forgotten the name now, but there was a line in that about the murderer like "He toke a knife when he was a child and has not put it down since."
Wang Dayoung reminds me of this line, he never put down that blasted gun. I won't be surprise if he still goes around shooting it.🤦🏻♀️😂
Think about it this way: he spent majority of his time growing up under the tutelage of Ren Xin and getting attached…
You have a good understanding of him and his actions and I have to agree, though I should point out several things. Actually for all his drama, he didn't spent that much time under her tutelage, only 3 yrs from the age of 12-13 to 15-16. One can argue these are important time of a person's life and make his personality, I explained my own view of their relationship in details in another comment though.
I don't mind his obsession in the first place, It was heartful, sad and even comical. What I don't like is the back and forth attitude he has with it. He went and said he understood she loves another only to do something stupid again and this was repeated where as they could use his screen time to show how capable he is as a leader, making allies at the court, scheming like his fast thinking after An Di's death, etc. He was planning for the regency from the start but in action we only saw him doing what NYZ tells him to do as if it was Liudao Tong people who came up with the idea of killing An royal men and enthrone the baby, but his good characterization was wasted on a recycled delulu plot.
Also, they could also develope a nice romance for him but went tight and loose with that too. He showed endgame vibes with YY at first only to be engaged to CY and while they actually made progress and could be, turned her into a love interest for SS and left him alone. At the end he was just as unloved as the start 🤔🤦🏻♀️
Running time was alright, the problem was what's common for dramas. Taking their time with fluff, filler substories, etc and ran out of time for the climax and wrapping, hence the plot packed ending episodes. Look how crampled Wu story was. We hadn't seen them for like 20 eps. then we saw all nice and reformed waiting for their king to come back. ☺
Ohh, that's good. I tried to watch it 1, 2 yrs ago but droppped after 10 eps or so when it was barely started. (I think it was when bf started cheating🤔)
I wanted to know the ending. Could you please tell me what happened at the end?
Very well said especially about the difference in NYZ and Ruyi's teaching styles 😅 though I must say even after…
I don't like romance and I was't much of this romance fan tbh, but one thing I liked was the healthy, mature and matually supportive relationship they had. Considering her past, if done badly it could be an awful story of fights and arguements but it wasn't. It's a nice diversion from common popular trope of obssessive, full of misunderstanding toxic relationships in most dramas.
Well said. Imo, LTG's character has a lot of potential for growth and development, but these were not maiximized.…
Exactly. He was such a complex and layered character and had a lot of potential for growth, with an actor who was actually decent but as you said, this overdone obsession subplot ruined him and made him an unhinged, unpredictable and unreliable man.

Yes, if anything for his many rescue scenes I don't remember once she was bitter or angry about it or say "Why did you came?" or something. She was grateful for his help and support. I guess seeing his team work with his brothers and how they helped each other and it didn't make them weak helped her accepting support from someone else.
