i swear only chishiya's game was interesting!!! arisu and usagi were so boring this season!

i'll also pray that you're wrong 😭

but for that they'd have to extract ice stone from uk's body which would kill him...

ig your idea of a 'villain' is very different from mine. to me, someone like jinmu is a villain. someone who has clearly evil ideas. he wants to create chaos, and become powerful. he's greedy, selfish and absolutely manipulative. someone like the cp is someone struggling between evil and good. he's being pulled into the evil by jinmu, but he's struggling to not stray off. he's made some questionable choices in life, but he does regret those choices and feel responsible for the aftermath. i say the cp is thus a grey character. yul is someone who has stuck to rules his whole life, the only time he broke rules was when he realised mudeok is naksu in s1. he believes that his choice to break rules have caused all the chaos that ensued. he's thinking of making the "right" choice this time. while his "right" does not look so right for us viewers, i don't think that makes him a villain. he's just a character absolutely struggling because of his moral compass which is structured different from uk's moral compass. what he's planning to do is not an evil act for personal gain, but a "sacrifice" for the "greater good." while i do not agree with his thought process, i don't think he's done anything to make him a villain

with all that said, if they suddenly decide to make uk some moral character who goes "last time you killed me, this time i'll kill you" ... that'd just wreck me

does noone realise that apart from uk, noone would be happy to know buyeon is naksu. noone at the palace (king, queen, cp), cheonbugwan (jinmu and his ppl) and even songrim (parkjin, danggu), wants naksu to be alive. her death while sad for uk has brought peace to the nation. her coming back would only create more chaos (as illustrated by the rumours jinmu created.) even jinyowon and master lee would want her dead if the truth about her identity gets out. yul planning to kill her is the sacrifice he's willing to make for the greater good. that's where uk comes in with all that ice stone power, because unlike yul he doesn't care about stupid morals. to him his love is precious and i believe he'll do all that he can to make sure that history doesn't repeat (that he doesn't lose her.)

if you think yul will become a villain if he continues to live... idk what to say. while we saw him thinking/planning of killing naksu, do you actually think he can do it when the time comes? let's say he do, even then he has no plan of living on with naksu's blood on his hands, he'd rather die with her. i can never see yul becoming a villain ever. rather as someone too bound by societal orders that they are afraid that failing to stick to principles will bring downfall of the entire nation.

idk why people are so clueless about yul's regrets? i'm guessing the subs screwed up in some way? because as a viewer who don't rely on subs, the regret part was absolutely clear to me.

finally someone! I can't with all these complains. Like why you watching a drama if you want things to go your way? go write a book or something! Just watch the damn drama and enjoy. If it's tragic, enjoy the sadness. If it's happy enjoy the fun.

alright. but korean is an ambiguous language bc most of the time subject ain't mentioned. that's why it's easy for these drama and reality show editors to make misleading previews. although it's possible that my interpretation is completely off, his words were very open to interpretation. i will still hold onto hope because i don't wanna wait in misery for a week

ikr! she and the shaman are both the same

she has one more daughter. letting naksu live as buyeon WITH all her memories is a bigger threat to jinyowon than having an heir who is not as powerful as buyeon.

there were sm good moments this ep. i hope ppl will stop overreacting about a few bad ones. yes, yul was planning to kill naksu, but that plan fell through bc they never got to go to danyanguk. yes, her getting back her memories might not be a good thing, but that was a passing comment made by master lee and doesn't have much clarity yet as we dk how, why or by who her soul would get "kicked out". but mainly looks like uk and buyeon's relationship is getting tighter (even proved to the pharmacist girl.) looks like the truth will come out soon. i'm still gonna stay positive and keep my fingers crossed for a happy ending. i'm most concerned for choyeon atm. the queen is wicked

that's why in s1 master lee told uk to kill mudeok when she regains her power. because all of daeho believes that powerful naksu is a threat to the social order. unlike uk, yul is a person of principles. even if it's his loved one he'd never go against rules for them. him letting naksu live knowing her identity in s1 was very out of character of him and that's why he regrets it

he said "kicked out" doesn't necessarily mean that the body will kick her out, could be that the mother will kick her out bc as naksu she is no longer useful. without the meory as long as she remains "buyeon" the mother can manipulate her

I loved the friends talk. he indirectly admitted his feelings for her. that was fun

because he believes that letting naksu live even when he knew the truth was what led to all that happened. he loves her, but her existence will surely bring downfall to many. it could lead to many fights. mostly between uk and the kingdom, also songrim and jinyowon. because there are customs and traditions that must be protected, but to uk his love will be priority

well she's also confused about whether these are her memories or from the marble. from his perspective it could look like she's reading all his memories with mudeok and reusing them on him to make him fall or wtv. because everything is sooo twisted both of them can make completely different i nterpretations of the situation leading to lots of misunderstandings. later in the ep he himself regretted all the stuff he said. it's just how reality is people say really hurtful stuff thoughtlessly when they fight. just because this is a fictional character we can't expect uk to be righteous 24/7

right now it's a love triangle (with a "dead" person) because both parties do not know yet that she's the same person. i don't think he's inconsistent. he's unsure about whether he likes her for her true self or because she has memories of mudeok (which he thinks she is seeing because of the marble) which makes him confuse her and mudeok. if the latter is the case and he acts all lovey dovey to her, that'd be like he's deceiving her for his benefit when he actually has no real feelings for her. that's why he's making sure that they have a safe distance between them so that he gives no false hopes to "buyeon".

i think it's 2pm uk time
