question. I just finished episode 2 with the obvious 'no it's cool, just sign after this enormous suspicious blank space' contract. Is this the level of competence the characters generally operate on, or is it just a weaker moment in the drama? Rooting for characters this easily outmaneuvered just seems frustrating and I'd rather drop it if this is gonna be a common issue.
I'm watching ep2. I'm confused. Does the FL has 2 moms?
The wife that cries over the marriage is her dad's first/legal wife.
The one that tells her to run away and hide at the gate is her biological mother and her father's second wife, her position usually translates as 'concubine'. According to the law she's still his wife, but she has less rights and protections than the first wife.
Concubines and their children are usually considered second-class compared to the legal wife and her children.
