Didn't he sing more than 3? Sudden Shower, Run Run, You &I, I'll Be There, and No Fate?

He does have ambition. He wants this world to be based on merit and not because they were born in a noble family or have connections.

I think the drama, with all his speeches about how he wants her to be able to do what she wants, makes it seem like he is helping her as purely because of his love for her. However, they have similar ambitions, where everone can live in a fair and just world. Her goals align with his. In helping her, he'll also gain power and achieve that world he dreams of. I think that's why there was all this misunderstanding from the first life, because she felt like he was just using her for power. But really both things (his ambition and his love for her) can coexist.

Also, a man with a strong sense of self confidence and security, supports his wife in her ambitions as well.

I don't consider it cheating since she asked for a "divorce" but he said it wasn't advantageous to them politically to do that. He's the one who said they could lead separate lives. It was a mutual agreement between the two. I don't think the moral police should come for her when she did try to separate officially.

While I'm also getting frustrated by her hesitancy, I can understand where she's coming from. She trusted a close companion for 17 years and it turned out he poisoned her. When she realized her judgment in a man cost her her life, can she even trust her own heart anymore when she was so wrong before? Not to mention, her parents aren't exactly great role models of two people who were once in love and turned their backs on each other when their paths diverged.

As for her soft spot for SRQ and not utterly despising him, I do think she feels guilt towards what happened to him in the first lifetime. Everyone in his family was killed and he was castrated because of LC (her brother). People who say she shouldn't forget what SRQ is capable of, are you also harboring the same hate towards LC? LR is assuming this is the young SRQ who still hasn't committed any crimes, just like her brother is still his innocent self. Many people's actions in their first lifetime were despicable, but they were all victims of their circumstances.

P.S. I don't care what happened in the book. This drama is based on that, but it's not the same. My opinion in based purely on the events transpiring in the drama.

He overheard SRQ talking about PWX's death and telling his henchman to go continue searching for his news since there's no body. Why did he pretend like he didn't already know he sent someone? I thought he might side with SGY but then he encourages his brother to propose marriage. I can't really tell where his loyalties lie. He seems like a nice straight forward guy compared to his brother.

I'm ready for some sugar high in the next episodes! Also, I have a question about SRH.

I'm thinking it might just be end of episode editing, and they'll show us the full scene with her rejecting him. I also felt like she was suspicious he's behind PWX's attack, so a lot of stuff is going through her mind as she tries to decipher his intentions. I might be looking too much into it 🤔

I don't know how true it is... I read ZLH already had work lined up and the director wanted to release the drama ASAP because the director has a bunch of dramas he previously filmed that are still collecting dust.

This cat sings better than me 😹😹😹

I felt like two slaps were too few for him. I wanted more slaps! 😅

Who’s ready for some slaps? Me! 🙋🏻‍♀️

She did not 🙂. Part of Princess’ plan to save her family. QZZ takes on a new identity and becomes the princess’ guard.

Definitely not okay. I remember watching Reply 1988, and they said having two in-laws from the same family (two brothers from one family marrying two sisters from one family) is even frowned upon despite literally no one was blood related. Taek and Sunwoo weren't even blood brothers, but step brothers. I don't think marrying your step brother is going to be well received.

I thought the part where SGY was saying her new guard looks familiar and LR ushered her out as fast as she could was pretty funny. Anyone who's seen QZZ should be able to recognize her easily 🤣. Except maybe crown prince who appears as innocent as a lamb.

I also find it obvious. Even though it's a new lifetime, I feel that she still feels guilt towards him. And I do think she has feelings for SRQ, because after spending 17 years, who wouldn't? But love has a lot of different types. She might fancy the attention, but the one she loves as a lover is clearly PWX. She gets more angry, more disappointed when it's PWX, which is a sign to me that what he affects her more. I think she clearly has her guard up and is meaner to him because she's scared of the way he makes her feel and his past communication has confused her despite him being so forthcoming now. Also, in Ep 12 she clearly states that she just sees SRQ as a past companion she feels guilt towards. As someone who's been betrayed by her closest family and friends, I think it's normal for her not to jump head first into her relationship with PWX.

Someone told me what happened in the novel because I said I believe she loved PWX in both lives (not complaining because I actually love spoilers). However, it tainted my impression of her a little bit, but I'm hoping they strip that from the drama and don't even "hint" at it. I'm watching it from the lens of the drama version of LR. From what I've seen so far in the drama, I still think what she feels for SRQ is guilt and decades of companionship. Even if you know they betrayed you, it's not easy to just turn off the love you feel for someone who's been by your side for like 20 years.

I think she feels the need to be logical in every thing she does because of her upbringing but also to protect her brother, who seems to act on emotion. PWX has mostly given her mixed signals in their past lives. Even then he has said they have a mutual benefit relationship and that they're allies. While she believed that he did like her, I don't think she ever knew he whole heartedly only loved her until Ep 11. Now that PWX has directly communicated his feelings without hiding it behind some other snarky comment, I think her walls will start coming down.

I'm glad PWX laid it all out there and poured his heart out! I could feel my heart racing along with that confrontation in the rain 😭. The way he explained that she always has to use logic to solve every obstacle she encounters even when it's matters of the heart paints a good picture of her character for me and why she acts the way she acts. As someone who grew up in the palace, a descendant of a prominent family, she's been trained a certain way. The fact that she apologized and admitted that she's used to reacting that way is great growth. I can't wait to see these two fall in love again 🥰.

Finished Ep 11. I can't wait for Ep 12!

My interpretation... QZZ is a free spirit and really not made for palace life. They don't want her to go through that again. Princess probably also doesn't want to see her brother devasted by her death again.

I don't think the male lead was truly in love with QZZ but they're childhood friends so must be some feelings there. It seems like male lead truly loved the princess, but communication is neither of their strong suits.

I hope they cut that part out of the drama. I agree with novel readers that she doesn't deserve him. He also lacks pride for forgiving her. Although with these time travel/rebirth dramas, she technically didn't cheat yet in her second life.... I don't know 😭 I don't love that part.

well that would've made the final battle have a more logical ending but I'm glad it was changed to a happy ending. I just wished he cut out a few minutes earlier so that Wen Ji and Lu Ji was also alive 😭
