LOL - its to hide the full moon cheeks he recently acquired. Which I think are so adorable they shouldn't bother.
I do think he looks adorable in this hairstyle. Just that the hair seems to keep getting on his face and really feel like helping him to push it aside or put some hair clips on him XD
This drama is not as bad as some comments here allude to be, and the FL is not that annoying either. No doubt she's naive and fixated on things she wants to do, but I quite like her type of character. So far, I'm enjoying the episodes.
1. ML & FL & ML's betrothed but he turns her into his sister 2. 2FL & 2ML & 2FL's assistant but he dies (?) 3. Lord Mei (ML's betrothed's brother) interested in FL, but not getting anywhere so far.
ML loves FL but ML also has a betrothed who loves him. Then brilliantly he changes the relationship into a sibling relationship with his betrothed hence getting out from the marriage.
No battles, and the palace politics are not like what we see in other palace politics, low and nasty for dramatic effects; the politics here are more on different point of views and government policies, and a lot of these are subtle and one has to read in between the lines.
I'm trying to watch this. Just halfway through the first episode but the pacing seems completely off. Am I missing…
Same here, but it's kind of getting addictive. I can't even be sure if Lin Jing is just a front. By episode 3, there's already a lot mysteries and the plot seems getting intense.
