The CGI was impressive but all the students and judges were having a group hallucination, which was dubious.

Sometimes, Jiang Li's the makeup looks very good, and other times it looks not good. No continuity! Is the real Jiang Li about 20 years' old? I am guessing that Xue Fang Fei is about 22-ish. Did they say how long she and Shen were married?

Oh! That guy! He looks conniving. The widow was probably fake. Did he have a personal relationship with her? Why did Emperor promote him?

LOL She looks overwhelmed, underwhelmed, pathetic or perturbed. Prince #2 must be the catch of the day, after Crown Prince and Fan Xian. I am guessing CP is unmarried, and Fan Xian pledged to marry Wan Er. At best, she could pretend to be happy that she is marrying Cheng Ze, even if he is two-faced.

Is Ye Ling Er connected YQM and the businesses that showed up in episode 26 to give the 20 million taels to Fan Xian?

I am looking forward to that.

Mr Fan seemed skeptical when Fan Xian told "Aunty" to sit at the table. I guess he does not regard her as Mistress of the Fan House.

He seems to like her secretly, and vice versa. I guess that they have to hang out together since Emperor has arranged the marriage. I don't understand what her purpose is, except to look perturbed when she sees Cheng Ze.

Is He Zongwei the little Eunuch?

I think that Ling Er and Cheng Ze like each other. Opposites attract, as they say. I had to draw the line when Cheng Ze chained her to the chair. If she does not come to her senses, she will become pathetic.

He got two promotions. 🌟🌟

I look forward to First Prince's scenes. He has no melodrama attached to him. CP and 2nd Prince are two-faced. 2nd Prince's Executive Assistant is cute, but he's always coming up with some conspiracy.

I like First Prince, then Crown Prince.

Can someone add the character's name for Fu Xin Bo [First prince]? Dramawiki lists Fu Xin Bo as Li Chengru, Eldest prince. Engaged to Northern Qi's Eldest Princess.

I knew his face from another drama, and finally looked him up today. Now I remember him as the doctor in South Wind Knows.

I came across Exhuma a few weeks ago, but I didn't attempt to watch it late at night, otherwise I would have been freaking out in my living room. I watched it in the early evening. The four main actors are favorites, and have a diverse acting experience, so I gave it a shot today. The typical Korean Horror genre movie is vague and ambiguous at times, which keeps the viewer guessing. It was a long plot. It was stupid that the Geomancer decided they should remove the upright coffin with the barbed wire. Immediately, anyone should guess it is a malevolent force that should be suppressed throughout eternity. But, all Hell had to break loose, and only six people knew what was going on. The poor bear was sacrificed. I am surprised the main characters did not die at the end, or be haunted in the final curtain call.

I have to agree about the plot getting muddled at times. The four main actors were phenomenal. The vagueness and ambiguity defused the horror aspect, but it was still scary.

That must have been scary, sitting in the half empty theater in the dark. It is a good thing the writer and director didn't explain everything. I thought the four main characters were going to be haunted in the end. LOL

LOL1 it's a good thing I didn't watch it late night. I finished it a few minutes ago (at 9PM). I thought the monster was the Japanese General who did atrocities in ancient Joseon... or whatever dynasty. But somebody was guarding him. The writer or director didn't quite identify that entity. Maybe it was the Park ghost that they unearthed in the beginning, who ended up killing his descendants. Korean horror genre is ambiguous.

Censor Lai Ming Cheng was pushing the buttons of the Emperor and the Court. Didn't he read the Emperor's Rulebook? I was expecting the death penalty, when he implicated the Emperor in the conspiracy. Was he told to sacrifice his life by someone behind the scenes?

I wonder what the production company does with the costumes after they finish production and promotion? The fabrics and costumes are exquisite. Do they put the costumes in storage forever?
