He: Ning, don't tell your jie2 what happened today.
Ning: What happened?

But yeah, I felt the exact same way. Sigggghhhh...

that he was leaving soon.

I'm glad Xie Zheng didn't wait too long to tell Chang Yu...

Exactlyyyy!!!

I like how the princess is the one who thinks Marquis Wu is just like a big bro. In quite a lot of other dramas, there's one woman who is pining for/trying so hard to get the ML, whereas the ML just thinks of her as a younger sis. Princess is living a life that's less free than Chang Yu (in terms of trying to find a husband as well deciding to do many things on her own like learning in Luyuan Academy).

Yeah, IMO everything has that L'Oreal hair ad glow. Absolutely stunning! I think the lighting plays a lot of role in making everything gorgeous, too. Also zooming in and slow-mo-ing certain scenes. Chef's kiss!

Also 'coz the uncle said FL was the one who found him in the snow and CARRIED him home. ML is a big, tall guy, so naturally Gongsun thought of a tall woman with a bigger built who could possibly do such a thing.

LOL! You crack me up. I also think he's the MOST gorgeous in this drama.

Also loving how ML apologized to her CLEARLY, stating what he was apologizing for. Many people apologize only to appease the other party, but he sincerely listed what he had done wrong. I really appreciate that.

Also, when she was saying, "If you die, I'll avenge you...and if I die..." followed by his words, "I'll avenge you." DANG!!!!! One of the least typical confession scenes for sure he he he he...

kept on cool-headedly asking questions to Consort Wei and the last question was such a HUGE check-mate that I just wanted to clap my hands 'coz after that line that Consort Wei said, she couldn't defend herself anymore. "Anyone who tries to murder the emperor's child should be killed." 💥💥💥 BOOM!

DAMN, I really love how Li Peiyi...

For me, the fact that Go Eun and Sungmin can spend HOURS together (talking or not talking in between 'coz they both say they enjoy the silence between the two of them, too) is a better indication of being able to enjoy each other outside of the show, too. In real life you don't always have to talk to your partner that much after you get to know each other well enough, so IMO comfortable silence means a lot, too.

And I agree with you in terms of how many things that I Geon does/says that Go Eun doesn't personally like.

Also agree about the bad editing of ep 11 and 12.

Me, too! Loving female characters supporting one another.

That's exactly what I said to my BFFs 'coz we watch The Apothecary Diaries, too. The palace setting is also a good similarity, though Mao Mao can't do martial arts he he...but both Mao Mao and Li Peiyi are kinda reckless in solving cases.

Indeed.

I love Pei Yi's relationship with her master HAHAHAHAH...both are actively trying to one-up the other. Very mischievous.

Peiyi: "Is my arm cooking?" had me in stitches BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHH...

OMG!!! Such a riveting drama. Despite the fact it started with a train wreck, I still couldn't keep my eyes off every single second of the drama, sitting at the edge of my seat, wanting to know what had happened????? Stellar casting, though this isn't something I could binge like normal due to the heavy topics, but everything was so well crafted. An excellent way to tell a complex story and complex characters.

Ep. 6 had me sit at the edge of my seattttt...AAAAARRGGGHHH!!! Great script, the cinematography and the bird-eye-view shots were also done very well. I can't wait for next week's episodes!

Was quite nervous about the body swap part 'coz done wrong, it could make me stop watching a drama. Nicely surprised to know no OTT acting for both main leads (though I knew I could always trust Nam Ji Hyun's acting chops) and I found myself laughing and giggling. I find that the body swap theme adds more value to the whole drama. Must say the script is really good.
