I am so uncomfortable with the Ha Na and CP pairing. I had really hoped the show wouldn’t go there. And no, they do not look good together. He looks young enough to be her child!

I agree! I really like her character. So nice to see not a typical black/white villain. I am interested what will happen once she finds out her husband killed her son. Btw, I get the sense that her brother listens to her a lot and asks for her advice but her husband is too proud to acknowledge how much she contributes. So maybe the husband will be the ultimate villain to defeat, and I am hoping MIL will team up with our leads.

It’s actually pretty common even today. I’ve got a friend whose dad came out as gay after about 20 years of marriage with 2 kids, and he’s now in a same sex relationship. And sexuality is a spectrum, so it’s possible that the elder brother was bi rather than gay. But even if he was gay (and not bi), it would have been expected of him to get married and have children.

I actually quite like her as a character. She genuinely seems to care about her daughter-in-law and wants happiness for her children. I hope she changes sides to take revenge for her son!

I am guessing they’re both matchmakers which is how they might both live a long life if they get married (given that normally the spouse of a matchmaker always dies young), but ML seems to have much stronger detection powers.

I was thinking the same thing. So tired of star-crossed reincarnated lovers

Is my understanding right that she can’t use his powers although they’ve been transferred to her? So he’ll be able to use his powers if he touches her, but she can’t use it herself?

Excited for this, but I wish kdramas had the same airing schedule as cdramas. I love how cdramas usually release several episodes at once, and then often two per day. Two episodes per week is not enough 🥲

Agreed! I like how the conflict between them wasn’t actually about a stupid misunderstanding but a genuine and valid difference in opinion. I hate it when couples get separated just because of a dumb misunderstanding and because they can’t communicate. But here they’re actually pretty good at communicating, it’s just that they disagree.

Who are the other two?

I better start binge-watching now 😂

Someone mentioned that all the other episodes will be released tomorrow? Is that true? I put this on hold for a little while, and now have so much catching up to do (I’m only on ep 22). Was kinda looking forward to catching up this weekend and then watching the new episodes next week.

I don’t think she should follow him. Her goal was to restore peace, and Li NI’s father is clearly not going to accomplish that. If LN wants to go back to Laolan pass, I would totally understand if she pursues her own goals. (But haven’t watched the last two episodes yet).

I think the pacing here is much faster than in either LLTG or WRTW. Also more focused on the love story maybe? I think in LLTG, the leads didn’t even properly meet in the first 5-6 episodes, whereas this drama has way more screentime between the leads. It’s probably overall a more lighthearted watch!

Agree, it’s bit disappointing how weak Ying was in this episode. She was so strong and badass in the first few episodes but is becoming more and more like a damsel in distress while Li Ni is a genius who can also defeat anyone in battle. Hope she gets her wits back in the coming episodes.

They talked about it later, I think he realised when he took off her mask during the battle and from her general behaviour that she was actually CL and not a concubine.

Would definitely suggest giving it a try. It’s very clear here that the second leads have zero chance with the leads. Leads also have way more screentime together than in SoKP. Just watch the first few episodes and see if you like it.

It’s so obvious that he is not comfortable with the idea of her marrying someone. He seemed shocked when he heard about the plan for her to marry.

I was thinking the same thing. The FL doesn’t even recognise that the youngest sister and her brother are a match. But maybe some agents of love are more powerful than others (as suggested by the text ML was reading), in which case ML seems like a much better detector of love / couples meant to be.

That’s a good idea. For me it’s really common to drop dramas if I’m no longer enjoying them. It’s actually rare for me to finish cdramas because they have so many episodes. But I’m hopeful with this one because I’m still hooked after 20 episodes! 😁
