I'm on ep 9 and I need to say somewhere that Hanmin looks exactly like the company I used to work for...thank goodness i didn't waste 25 yrs of my life in that toxicity
she gets worse in later episodes but unfortunately we are still waiting to see her get what she deserves... hopefully…
I feel she has a massive inferiority complex especially against Fei Ni. It's not just about the housing and university quota anymore. Even when she reads Fei Ni's brother's article (which Fei Ni wrote), she loses it because of the big words she can't understand. Fei Ni's design sketches did her no harm but still she was visibly burning with jealousy. She just sucks up to higher authorities and got into uni. But Fei Ni is smarter, kinder, talented and hard working than she ever could be. She is just that dumb superior at workplace who can't beat you through good work so resort to evil scheming to make your life hell.
ML falls for her pretty quickly, open about his feelings and even proposes marriage in ep7. FL likes him but due…
some seem to have misunderstood that epilogue as leads not having a happy ending during Joseon period. But that's not correct. ML decides not to have a royal wedding as King and wants to hold the throne for his nephew. He doesn't care about minister's pressure and the common people are rooting for leads. FL waits for him and as promised wears the silk shoes in the last scene when he is ready to be together. Even while waiting, he still regularly spends time with fl and goes on secret dates. The epilogue is about her wish to be together in the next life coming true, so they get HE in two different lives.
spoilers please everyone!!! details are much appreciated!!!when do the main leads get together?is there any misunderstanding/breakup?…
ML falls for her pretty quickly, open about his feelings and even proposes marriage in ep7. FL likes him but due to her personal life and social class difference, she doesn't express. They get together officially as couple only in the last 2 episodes but their relationship develop consistently throughout. No misunderstanding as such but both hide stuff about them from each other which gets revealed during the body swap. No breakup. Once they get together even the pressure of palace politics didn't deter them. And we also get a beautiful epilogue!!
I'm surprised they changed the fact that FL threatened Mei to go poison Consort Shu (and have her purposefully…
I was disappointed coz that's the point we realise the story world is making Yu become ruthless just like Dan became the mad tyrant but then Dan stops her and says 'you don't have to change, I will do the dirty work for you'.
The only thing I am unable to understand is what is the original novel like without the transmigrators?I mean…
In original novel East Wind Blooms Thousand Flowers, Prince Duan and Yu Wanyin are lead characters. Yu falls in love with Duan during the lantern festival and helps him to overthrow Dan. Xie is just a side character who became cannon fodder. So Dan and Xie dies in this story.
In Devil's Beloved Consort (level 1 transmigration), a modern character Chunchun transmigrates into the novel East Wind with full knowledge of the plot. She realises she is the character Xie who bound to die in the end. To change her fate, she aligns with Duan and plots against Yu. She aids him with her knowledge of the plot to overthrow Dan. So Dan and Yu dies and are buried together. Imo, Devil's beloved consort refers to Xie for being the transmigrator and becoming lead of the story.
1&2. Yes 3. Yes but only in Devil's Beloved Consort. 4. In DBC, Yu is still deeply in love with Duan as in the East Wind and tries to help him. However, Duan is just a selfish jerk vying for power so he finds better use of Xie's foreseeing power. There's a reason they were buried together but that's a major spoiler so leaving it out.
So indeed it was Zhang San who got forced to father a child? Then did he also get forced to consummate marriages…
No. The Empress Dowager wanted a puppet Crown Prince just in case when Dan gets out of her control. So after one child, she didn't care about it but made sure all concubines had birth control potion.
Anyways I'm sooo excited for this drama!!!
