She is a married woman and in Joseon era, she is not supposed to do all what she did with her ex-suitor. She did not know the real face of her husband. She did not know his lies and schemes and thought he was a brave, decent, and nice man this is why she married him. When she was abducted, she never knew what he did or did not do. She only learnt that he abandoned her.

This is not a good reason enough to cheat on her husband. Because what she did was cheating. Then ML forced her to leave by lying to her and she went to meet her husband who, big joke, had a new and pregnant wife. But Gil Chae still told him whatever his reason to divorce her, she would have fought not to. She is the one divorcing him because she gave her heart to another man while being married. Cool huh? Modern wifes I guess.

Nah... she put her hand in his when he was asleep... She did let herself go to physical intimacy with him. Which is weird for Joseon era but for 2023 eyes, it's nothing big.

Why not? She hold his hand. Talked her heart to him. Walked with him enjoying his company. They hugged. He kissed her on the cheek and he would have done more if they were not stopped. She did and let all this happen when she knows she is married. She broke a lot of limits already. Why not? But I agree, she did not do it. Not because of the husband though.

But chastity only means that a person abstains from sexual pleasures. It does not mean the person never had sex. As for virtue, it just says a person has moral standards (as a wife for example) and would not do anything to break these standards.

It is not related to virginity. She surely did her duty as a wife with her husband.

Maybe she is pregnant after sleeping with the ML because they slept together but it is not shown yet? Imo, she is not pregnant.

You mean the FL? She went to bed with her husband the night of her wedding.

In Joseon era captain Gu like most men had little consideration for married women who "met other men" by will or by force.

In Joseon, there was very few open minded men like Jang Hyun.

This drama is set in Joseon era but it promotes very modern ideas on couples and relationships to help viewers to be open minded.

She consumated her marriage the night of her wedding. She said she would be a good wife and good wife bed with their husband the night of the wedding. After she said that, she is seen outside at night alone watching the moon. She did her wife's duty. She was married and a good wife for years. Impossible she did not sleep with her husband for so long when she has no reason to refuse her husband at night.

That translation of korean words into chastity might not be accurate. I agree with you. It's more like people says she has been dirtied by the invaders. Maybe a korean speaking person can clarify.

Plenty of roadlock on the path of their "romance": The Princess and Ryang Eum. That guy has been trying to separate them for years. He does not have the courage to confess and stop his schemes to allow ML to love who he wants to love. As for the Princess, she likes the ML, she is possessive and she will stop at no dirty schemes.

OMG these two cheaters are so cute ...

...enjoying the precious time they have together chit chatting, showing their concern and love, walking, confessing, hugging, kissing... when she is married, and he knows she is married. Cheating is acceptable under certain conditions, I guess.

And what about Ryang Eum. This boy should muster the courage to tell Jang Hyun that he loves him not as a brother but as a man. Who knows, this Joseon kdrama seems to have an open-minded view about couples and their relationships. Maybe Jang Hyun likes him too. They can become a couple before they find Gil Chae and form a threesome or polyamory relationship?

Jang Hyan disappoints me so much. Why ask her to stay with him when he knows she has a husband? After letting all her love feelings flow to her ex-suiter, Gil Chae remembers to go back to her husband to clarify things... Tada! They made him even worse than before. I knew they would dirty him but not with that ridiculous manner haha. The guy has a wife and his going to be a dad!

OK, that shitty Husband/cuckold/cheaters arc of story has finally ended.

Agree it was good. Hope the whole drama will be that good.

I thought that the main couple would survive in the end but the ending is better than expected for me.

I wish to know how she built that house on her island but I am also glad that they did not drag the story of her exile. Maybe we will see later some scenes with her time on the island.

ML is ML like it was in Start up but maybe she will end up with the SML...

I think it is a huge spoiler as it gives away one of the main reason of the feelings and actions of Ki Ho. Someone who has not watched it yet should not be informed of that beforehand. It spoils the experience.

Pretty sure Jung Ki Ho will have a different name later. No romance tag here on MDL but romance is likely.

Dang, you are not afraid to spoil the drama for people here. You should really use the spoiler tag. I guess many people will forget about it especially if the drama is good.

Not sure if we will see them again in flashbacks but they were really good in the first ep.

First ep is so good. It is fast paced but it has everything. A solid backstory with endearing teen characters and emotional moments. Can't wait for ep2.
