In the most recent episodes the drama has morphed from a wacky modern comedy with hanboks and into feeling more like the fusion sageuks of earlier years...still with plenty of humor but giving me a little bit more of that feeling of sageuks I know and love.
Maybe that's why I'm finding it even more enjoyable and interesting while others seem to think it's slowed down?
I really don't find it slow at all, just more evenly paced, whereas the first couple of episodes kind of felt like they had guzzled an energy drink 😅

Keep watching and you'll see! 😉

She's already engaged to him and has tried to break off the engagement as she doesn't have feelings for him. As of episode 8 it honestly has affected the plot very little...SML has not had that much screentime. Can't say how it will come up in future eps yet.

You're very welcome! 😊

I don't know if he'll be mad about her being the one who intercepted the letter, but regardless, her being Princess definitely throws a wrench into his hopes of marrying her 😢

Oops, I thought you saw ep 8—sorry for accidentally spoiling 😅 But I think it'll come out soon. Han Su doesn't seem like the explosive type so I can't imagine him being mad when he already loves her so much. We'll see what happens! 🙈

He was saying 'It was the princess' referring to the person who took the letter to try to deliver to the King, that Councelor Yoo intercepted leading to the tragic events for Han Soo's family. And in Episode 8 we of course find out that the Princess was Yeon Joo.

I can't remember which episode it was...The one with the pregnant woman who murdered that mean old lady 😅 Han Su was trying to take the weapon away from her and sliced his hand pretty badly.

Did you watch the next episode after he drunkenly rambles about the Princess? It should answer your question :D

Definitely think we are in store for some angst! 😭 I'm nervous about how the secret is going to come out.

Pretty much an average day for him 😅

Was anyone at all expecting the sister plot twist? I just didn't see it coming for some reason, even though I definitely should've thought of it!

It kind of makes sense now why the front half of the show moved the romance along like it did. There is a lot for our leads to deal with in the second half. I'm actually looking forward to the Han Soo and Eun Soo drama most. That's going to be one crazy reunion 😶

Actually this is the first time I've seen him playing an outright villain, and he's so good at it!

It's the kind of cast that makes me wish I could see more of the support characters. Even the villains are great in their roles. I agree SML is a little bland, but I find him likable enough. Preferable to a pushy and annoying SML 🙃 Yoon is emerging as a favorite side character for me and I like when he comes out from Lady Hong's/YeonJoo's shadows and joins the group dynamic a bit :D

Dr. Romantic 3 begins next weekend in the same time slot so unfortunately I doubt this momentum will continue.

But interesting proof of how time slots really can affect the success of a drama.

Joseon Attorney's rating rose to 3.8% for Episode 7 (from 2.2% the weekend previous.)
For Episode 8, Joseon Attorney has reached their highest rating yet, 4.4%.

This is the first weekend the show has not shared a time slot with Taxi Driver 2.
Congrats to them! 🎉

They actually had me almost feeling bad for Lord Chu and his son this episode because of their performances. Man!

The supporting actors in this show are all AMAZING.

It's on Viki if you have Viki Pass. For future reference you can watch episodes for free on Kocowa (depending on where you're located) on the day their air. They lock after that and you need to subscribe, but for ex. Episode 8 is free to watch right now on Kocowa :)

For sure, in this kind of situation it's always the lack of trust and honestly that hurts the most, more than whatever the actual "betrayal" is 😣

I love the actors who play young Han Su and Dong Chi ❤️
