Also, when I saw Jong Won's age, I was so afraid that we'll lose yet another actor to military just after his breakthrough drama, but no, he's already served in the military π I'm so glad, in the recent influx of idol actors he's a shining star. I also love that he got a major role even after starring in a queer role in XX, I have high hopes for the industry changing, even a little bit at a time. After I finish Knight Flower rewatch, time for XX rewatch!
I am rewatching fron the beginning, and it's crazy how tightly they filled the show with major events and action. Plots I initially thought were shown in the span of 2-3 episodes were actually way more condensed. There was barely any filler! The romance also moved pretty fast. Even tho the episodes were just over an hour, they felt like at least an hour an a half, in the best of ways! Would have loved more eps and I can't refuse some romantic or comedic filler, but this was so well thought-out, it's crazy. Don't really see such dramas in today's landscape. Everything was perfect: the actors, screenplay, directing, music!
The one year absence is very befitting to her character, and him waiting for her, confident she would come back,…
One of the few dramas where the timeskip was needed so much. She had to get time to mourn her brother, not even mentioning that she's been locked up for so long.
Well, looks like you called it! Bravo!!! ππΌ I loved the ending! This is probably one drama where the implied…
And I like how someone phrased it in comments above - that SH is "tempting"our innocent FL π Even if she didn't give in in the start, I have no hope for her in the future!

Thank you haha! I know, right, its crazy how hot the chemistry is here! I've been constantly complaining on the current dramas regarding how the leads seem to have a relationship as innocent as 12 year olds, even tho they are just under 30. Completely unbelievable, tbh. But here, even though this is their first relationship, there is no skinship, and the show is set in Joseon, the chemistry is sizzling. And it's not a chemistry between teenagers of sth, it's just like you said, pretty sexual π In most cases I wouldn't start a romance dramas without a kiss. But this drama's chemistry is not innocent in the least π
Hahaha thank you π the drama really did a lot of foreshadowing, especially in the first episodes, that's why I'm doing a rewatch rn! I never put that much attention to the theme of "catching" FL by ML, but just like you mentioned in your comments above, it turned out to be a very important lead for the final scene haha!
YH left for a year, not wanting to be anyone's wife, daughter etc. And then we got a time skip and a scene where our lovebirds meet and SH says that he finally caught her! He grabs her in his arms and then it cuts before (potential) kiss πππ it's enough for me!
I'm in the middle of rewatching ep1 and I have a very strong feeling that the drama will end the same way it started - our FL in danger, and ML taking her into his arms and saving her. Funny music, THE END. I highly doubt we'll get a more satisfying conclusion or skinship for our main couple, but it should end on a positive note.
Besides the fact that the show is a comedy, what keeps me positive is the way that the second widow's plot has ended - happily in love, getting away from all her troubles.
Maybe I'm rumbling but I really need something to keep me positive till tomorrow >< Especially with the ep12 preview. It's more dramatic than I thought, and I'm not sure it's necessary. The whole show they for the most part avoided major drama...
If any of you have another arguments for happy ending, I will happily read them ><
What the fuck was that ending?!! Why is everyone saying it's happy ending?! HOW?? Spoilerβ
There are 2 camps of people, one considers it a HE and the other a BE, just like you pointed out. In my mind, this was the worst possible ending. I'd rather they show the king reincarnating, which at the time of watching, I considered to be my least favourite option. So you are completely right...
My toxic trait is going on Twitter to check all the spoilers right after the episode ends (even tho they are in…
I actually have a pretty big trauma, whenever I watch ongoing dramas I truly care about, the ending turns out to be pretty bad. I was heartbroken for like 2 weeks after watching Mr Queen, and recently A Journey to Love messed me up pretty bad too. So even tho I know that this is a comedy, and every sign is pointing us towards a happy ending, I feel really uneasy that our cute leads will end up separated. I'm too old for this, goddammit...
