omo omo omo meeeeee tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ANGST IS EVERYTHHINGGGGGG ... makes some of the best drama .. scenes .. dialogues omo i'm so damn invested

we're hoping such a smart king would have already suspected that ..

i agree .. very idk had a frightening tone and meaning and almost a sarcastic tone as well

he doesn't want sons because of he has an heir queen dowager will make his son the crown prince and once he is given that title .. his nephew will never be able to become the crown prince .. notice how his nephew isn't given the crown prince title but instead grand prince ??? that's cause queen dowager doesn't like him .. that's why she was hell bent on the king sleeping with his queen and she even brought shamans to pray for that but got caught by the king..
that's why he isn't sleeping around with any of his women .. because he is hell bent on making his brother's wishes come true ..

only reason he keeps he close is because she knows the real words the late king uttered after being poisoned .. that rude brat even indirectly threatened him to allow her to enter that area only him and his baduk master by using the events that happened and the promise he made her ... ohh ohh and and that's literally why she is entitled and lee in would already have at least one child if he engaged with those women but he didn't sleep with any so he can adhere to the king's wish to help his nephew ascend the throne
and he never slept with her because had he slept with her she'd immediately be made into a concubine ... people say that the reason he doesn't his wives is because of her is just a rumor made because she's the only one who spends time helping him and reading for him, bringing him herbal medicine at night .. at his headquarters since he doesn't go any other concubine or his queen's to spend the night ,, peoople assume he favors her

yes i hope they'll dive deeper in things we and the fl don't know about the events of 3 years ago

thank you ..of course .. looking forward to more discussions with you and everyone here

oh yeah the king is too smart ... he can read people too easily .. like her read the room in the queen's headquarter and figure that it was her pplan to involve the young grand prince..but anyway he also plans to let his nephew ascend the throne .. he has a soft spot for him ... he was a bit disappointed to hear that he asked the queen about the baduk instead od him and he asks him very softly and he is very nice to him unlike queen Dowager .. lol so if that's her revenge then lee in and her plans align ... he has feelings .. in the end of ep 6 he had to stop what he was doing cause he was too focused on the thought of her and couldn't focus on anything else and he went to see her ... he's hoping she forgives him one day ... we're gonna see him protect her a lot as the drama progress

many of us are betting that he may have suspected she is .. but we can't be sure

i wonder if she will .. i have a feeling she may be too far in so to abandon her revenge means to get herself killed some other way for him

i explained somewhere why he wasn't exactly being mean on purpose and i'll tell you what i think of his behavior : he's just flaunting his power as king and being angry to mask his guilt.. and he said things he doesn't mean too ... as soon as she left in ep 6 after the intense convo, he remembered when she was imploring him to save her friend and he turned his back on her ... he is still angry with how things turned out he too blames himself .. deep down her hating him haunts him and he doesn't wanna hear her say it out loud .. victim of the circumstance ..................... it's just his defense mechanism at work ... i think he is because he can't bear to hear her say the things he already knows .. he is tormented by the fact that she almost died unjustly and that he couldn't save her

also and note this : after the scene of all of them in the queen's headquarters he and mong woo have a convo where the king's features soften upon hearing her say she expects him to help her, and he answers you STILL expect me to help . now this sentence is important because this sentence gave him hope that she will put her faith in him again and that she didn't lose it completely , gave him hope that she might forgive him one day .. poor king fr .. he felt like she will redeem him the past and what happened .. he's still is angry clearly because of how it all went down .. he remembers how she implored and how he had to turn his back on her ... this is is gonna break me lol i'm officially all for the king ..

did you also see his soft spot to his nephew ( he isn't having any kids too so his nephew ascends the throne ) :( nothing breaks my heart more than when a sweet soft loving caring soul is forced to turn cold wrathful cruel and merciless ... that's what they turned him into .. it's all the fault of myung ha's father scheme to make him a traitor he isn't in the eyes of the late mad king and even after his death in the eyes of the ministers and also the queen dowager who clearly conspired with his uncle to poison the late king , his beloved brother in order to make him ascend the throne ...

yes exactly her feelings got in the way big time .. he was also a victim of what happened .. man if you look closely at the convo ep6 .. the king was being this jerk to mask his fear of hearing her admit that she hates him, he doesn't wanna hear it cause he already knows .. it ate him away .. he was hiding his guilt and that's why he looked like a crazy ruthless jerk .. i feel bad for him .. he even said things he doesn't mean ..

ikr .. and the king's character is so smart and powerful man .. it doesn't suit his character to not already know or at least suspect her of being a women

gonna put this out there
after thinking it through i'm on the king's side now .. used to be on hers " felt bad for her friend and tried on understand her but come on guys .. she forgot that the intial problem was myung ha's dad ??? if i were her i'd be more angry at myung ha and his scheming dad .. his dad literally caused the mess and ordered the torture that led to her friend's death .. the king indirectly " as she said killed her friend "cause he couldn't save her and that broke her heart ..her broken heart and disappointment is blinding her a bit and clouding her judgement ..

yes gurl ..i know right lol .. probably betrayal disposal .. i don't think they can take him down any other way, they can't kill him he's too powerful .. after thinking it through i'm on his side now .. used to be on hers " felt bad for her and tried on understand her but come on if i were her i'd be more angry at myung ha and his scheming dad .. his dad literally caused the mess and torture than led to her friend's death but because the king broke her heart ..her broken heart and disappointment is blinding her a bit and clouding her judgement ..

oh yeah me too.. no he said she died unjustly .. we don't know the whole truth but i thnk he knows she is innocent that's why he said "‘A friend who trusts and relies on you, A friend you want to and must protect at all costs, The kind of friend that gives your life meaning, If such a friend loses their life to a wrongful death, one may go mad’.. notice the use of wrongfull ... it eats him away what happened three years ago ..

no it's just his defense mechanism at work ... i think he is because he can't bear to hear her say the things he already knows .. he is tormented by the fact that she almost died unjustly and that he couldn't save her

yes he's pitiful .. i change my mind regarding him after giving this all some thought .. pitiful those who are forced to be cruel

he's just flaunting his power as king and being angry to mask his guilt.. and he said things he doesn't mean too ... as soon as she left in ep 6 after the intense convo, he remembered when she was imploring him to save her friend and he turned his back on her ... he is still angry with how things turned out he too blames himself .. deep down her hating him haunts him and he doesn't wanna hear her say it out loud .. victim of the circumstance

yes probably just a rumor
