I really liked this, Yun Seung's story broke my heart a little bit but overall this drama definitely comforted me in many ways.
Btw, the drama itself is a huge klavuu add but weirdly enough I actually prefer this to untimely PPL, cough * subway* cough... XD

ikr, colored version is so pretty, I wish other manga and manhwas could do the same.

I think I finally found a drama fitting just right to my humor code after Fiery Priest, I'm living for the jokes and probably having way too much fun than it is considered a healthy dose happiness.
One thing though, I'm kinda scared to see the fall of Vincenzo which will eventually come, especially with the speed everything is moving, I'd say it's not that far away too.

Agreed. Just based on their physical compatibility I'd say we'll be seeing a much better on screen chemistry cause lets be real that kiss in ep 1 at 5th min was ridiculous. It almost made me drop the drama.

I think he kinda fits the role, has the big body build that actually makes sense that he is super strong unlike unassuming looking Jisoo plus he has a big smile that can actually fool us into believing he is kind. If they keep up with the quality of the production I think I might be even glad for the change.

If it was anyone else replacing him I was going to drop it too but Na In Woo has showed pretty solid acting in Mr. Queen so I'm gonna watch at 2 episodes with him before deciding.

"I sincerely hope it's a much more enjoyable experience to read the raws, should you happen to find them! <3"
Thank U ^^
Edit: I have found it on Kakao, plus it's the colored version :D

Thanks, I've read your comment below and I'm totally convinced to give it another go, the art style was gorgeous and actually I can read Korean now and if anything I can probably find the raws somewhere :)

I was reading the manhwa back then but never got around to finish it since it wasn't completely translated back then.
Have you read the whole thing? Should I give it another go?

As much as relationships can get toxic Shin Chae Kyung and Lee Shin had it all BUT, this was just done so well, they were both teenagers and if you think about it, both of them have acted as teenagers should be acting like, Lee Shin was mean yet he is actually one of the few problematic male leads that is pretty justified with his anger, he was unfair to Shin Chae Kyung there is no doubt in it but when you consider their age, marriage + palace drama, their relationship made sense.
If anything, watching the growth of these two teenagers was rewarding enough for me, and to this day Queen Dowager is still one of my favorite characters, her relationship with Shin Chae Kyung was my true joy in watching this drama, plus the teddy bears, they were the real main leads if you ask me.

Whilst I agree with your points, I do find Princess Hours a lot more compelling, I really loved the whole family dynamic, Queen and Queen dowager both were such a joy to watch.
Also, at heart this was still a teenager drama with it's flamboyant teenage liveliness while dressed in an unshakeable underlying melancholy due to serious topics it actually tackled.
Overall all it might not be that deep of a drama but if you've seen it while being in that target audience, aka teenager, then it is quite hard to not enjoy it, at least for back in its own decade.

So far, I love this drama, despite the focus on Song Ah and Hyun Seung 's relationship, the balance of the whole story is really well done. We get to see a lot of other perspectives with different type of relationships that others have and so far it has been really fun, and in an unexpected way quite realistic at some parts too.

She already said that she could not put her all in to love like her mom and Hyun Seung said that it was okay and he would be the one putting his all in.
Also, she was always sincere and frank about her feelings, at which point did she deceive him or played with his feelings. I don't get it. She was selfish which she admitted and no matter what we say it Hyun Seung that accepted her despite it.

It's official, this drama will leave me in pieces, 6th episode was brutal and now the 8th one, sigh, I'll accept the fate and consider all of my favorite characters dead since I just can't see how on earth they will ever survive this.

oh well, episode 8 says hello

It was obvious that woman was Gu Reum, her body is too prominent to be mixed up with someone else but I was betting for a time slip sorta moment and that baby being ZiO, of course this was before watching the rest of the drama.
But, still can't believe she is the baby mama, that one I totally didn't see it coming.

4 wow, I mean two makes at least sense as it would placate fans and 3 is a stretch but 4 different endings is a new high for sure.
Still the one I mentioned above would fit my taste the best but oh well.

Well, the comment said that it was dream sequence due to time travel fantasy restrictions(plus bunch of others) of China at that time, I haven't seen the original hence I've only written what I understood/remember from that comment.

I've read in some spoiler for the Chinese version that Bon Hwan and So Young were actually supposed to be the same person and Bo Hwan was sent to a man's body by accident, so in the end both of the souls merged as one.
That would've been a better ending imo but I guess we'll have to make do with this one.

In real life men like him would be called total trash,(I've only seen the Chinese version) he is one hell of an arrogant a piece of sh*t, but again female lead was also beyond stupid to be redeemed so I guess match made in heaven?

P.s. There was this recalling the memories scene between the male lead and the female lead's mother where he was thinking with a snobby voice how her daughter was chasing after him, ugh, I really wanted to smack his head back then.
