In the sister’s defense this is something that’s deemed typical etiquette of the era. He actually chose to…
Yea but can’t she just tell him the rules and etiquette while they’re otw there instead of right there in front of everyone. It feels so intentional how the writers want to make him kneel and kowtow while painting him as this immature and selfish brat, declaring his love to GJZ.
Just watched episode 14. Chen Yan Yun is giving major husband energy. He understands Gu Jin Zhao and knows whether or not she’s okay. He’s also giving major husband energy when he sent people to help her out and tries to find out what happened, discreetly.
On the contrary, something about Ye Xian kneeling and kowtowing before Jin Zhao’s mother feels off to me. First of all, the sister should have told him that he doesn’t have to kneel and kowtow to her late mother, while they are otw there and not when they are there. With her saying it then and there, of course the writers have to make him kneel and kowtow to her late mother so he doesn’t come off as a jerk and instead make that scene a declaration of love scene.
Ren Min’s acting is good here! I felt her grief, anger, regret, frustration. Gu Jin Zhao was so badass. Love how she took the reins and took charge managing the household despite her grief.
Yi An loves his nephew dearly and it was so cute seeing the little Emperor running, crying, and hugging his uncle. Yi An’s wrath scene towards In Pyeong was also memorable. He was angry!
Hui Ju kneeling before her father, the very man she has a love-hate relationship with and would never beg for anything from, all just to save Yi An was a LOUD confession of love coming from her. Loved that scene but got disappointed by how the solution is to divorce. I don’t get how divorce could solve the problem.
