My POV:
this deserves 8.5 as of now...there were many dragging elements and plot seemed repetitive...i am still watching as nothing else interesting is airing..not necessarily because this is best of best...its entertaining no doubt, but they are usings the start the episode strong fill in middle prolonging scenes and end on cliffhangers to keep making viwers come back also...saying itbdeserves anything beyond 8,5 is a stretch acc to me

🤣🤣🤣emperors of cdrama do only tht

They are not twins...in the drama they are 1st cousins who look very similar and difficult to differentiate at 1st glance or more for casual observers...the grandmother instantly picked up they were not same people, many close peopl to Jundai have said the same...the drama was never about twins...but about close look-alikes who happen to be 1st cousins...
And everyone has seen twins in real life...I hav also seen very close look-alike siblings and cousins, who need at least 4-5meetings to start differentiating between them


I think you are talking about how they can't be identical..
And I m talking about how such look-alikes exist who can confuse people easily unless well acquainted

This data you mentioned is using stict maths as metric or using AI or digital facial /biometric recognisers

While a computer algorithm or forensic scanner will easily spot minute differences in millimeter measurements, the human brain does not look at the world like a ruler.
The human brain uses holistic processing—a structural "schema" or map that bundles prominent features (like a round face + bushy eyebrows + a specific jawline) together. Because our brains group people by these overall patterns, you are highly likely to have thousands of "perceived" look-alikes.
If you have a relatively common combination of traits (e.g., average height, brown eyes, oval face shape), mathematical modeling suggests you could easily have thousands of potential look-alikes globally who look practically indistinguishable to the casual observer.

Also the odds you mentioned is for doppelgangers, i.e. strangers...first cousins share at least 12.5% of DNA...comparatively increasing the odds..• If the 12.5% of DNA the cousins share happens to contain the highly dominant, highly heritable genes for these specific facial anchor points, our brains will register them as looking like identical matches.

True...so have to make do with sanitised versions in dramas

Actually I really wish this was the reality and men had that degree of self control...but majority of them don't

Thank you 🙏🏻

Its rude and strange how you are trying to go against basic website rules and asking the entire world to not see comments just so you don't have to click on the spoiler check button...this behavior is exactly like Jundai...entitled and pretentious..and when someone calls it out act like a victim and pretend you are the respectful one

MDL is an open website...no one is asking you not to discuss ...all the admins and other viewers are telling is to hide obvious plot and other stuffs related to scenes which will spoil the viewing experiences for others under spoilers....this is logical... not what you are saying
You want to go against website rules, spoil viewing experience for others...and tell them not to see comment section?? Seriously trying to control the whole world when you are going against basic rules and courtesy is logical?? SMH

Have watched upto ep 16 only

It is possible, rare but still possible..
Heard of dopplegangers? Complete strangers looking alike...
So fraternal twins can look alike, rare but still possible

There is still the investigation of someone supporting the enemies in war

No cliffhanger..they wrapped up the real vs fake arc

All it takes is simply clicking on the spoiler check and comment gets tagged as spoiler...what's this complain about?? Really someone is this lazy and inconsiderate??
You are acting like Jundai here

I am glad they wrapped up this arc in today's episode...if they had prolonged it , would have dropped the drama

The voice sounded like hers...
The drama ending in cliffhangers is irritating though

I thought Lady Shou would have more brains...she seriously fell for the poisoned incensce trick??!!
And did Huo grandson really believe Jundai was attentive??
Or was it just a ploy to make Jundai believe her trick was working??

Ya..poor girl can't trust anyone...it felt like an "Et tu, Brutus moment"

Ya..Bitao betrayal was unnecessary..seeing how AChou was working around things, if she had confessed before and asked help with her family, something could have been done...even if she hd confessed there and told the elaborate plan, Lady Li would have helped her family, it's Lady Li favoured by emperor...Bitao's betrayal is foolish..she dug her own grave..what guarantee does she have now that Wei family will spare her??this after seeing Wei family killing everyone who knows the truth
