It's a cheesy romance between secondary characters. They are mostly for fun without any deep conversations, meaning or emotions.

There's also a story of unrequited love.

The relationship with FL's mother was done quite well. The FL got some therapy and support to deal with her mother. It was showed that the mother also wanted to reconcile. So that one was quite believable.

As for the reason why the sister-in-law let go of her anger it was the day when she almost killed her daughter when she tried to run over the ML. Maybe it was a little bit unrealistic but let's say the daughter was the only thing that mattered to her. So almost killing her could have made the woman understand the situation and what her daughter was asking for (when the girl said she doesn't want the company just normal mum).

Maybe they could. But why bother? The only purpose of this character was to create problems so the main couple could overcome them. Why waste time and effort on adding some layers to such a character. That way she's totally black character while viewers have no reason to doubt the ML.

Yes, but it was more a comic relief (in a comedy drama) than a proper romance.

Perfect summary. It's a nice watch but nothing great. The villain is villainous, the friends supportive and everything is resolved because of the power of love (that heals traumas and all problems in life).

Shared sentiment. I really shipped the FL and the husband together. And the plastic surgeon was creepy as hell!

What about you?

I've only watched Blossom (actually rewatched it recently and still liked it).
I've seen some episodes of the Prisoner of Beauty and was interested but I haven't see the whole thing (I prefer couples who have better communication and less misunderstandings).
And with the Kunning Palace i thought it was a sad ending so I never started.

Again: same for me:)

Some people are colourblind. I'm car blind:)

If you use a little imagination you can understand why someone would like to be the royalty. It gives them some power (even if small) but also riches and prestige.

It was only showed she saw him write the document, she burnt the document and then the fire was showed. It could be that the fire has started because of her but maybe the late king decided to stay there and commit suicide? Or someone else intervened.

But if she believes the king died because of her and she feels guilty it makes sense she's so rigid about protocol and rules. She holds to them to lessen her guilt.

I think the amount of men in the drama makes perfect sense storywise. If it's a constitutional monarchy then you can expect the country to be more conservative. The real modern day South Korea is conservative so they had to make it superconservative in the drama. Otherwise who would believe that people still care if you come from a noble family.

I wouldn't be so harsh for him. He's a politician and she was building her career. Maybe he believed there's plenty of time for the romance later?
Her decision to get married was rather surprising and only happened because her family has pressured her for the marriage.
Also, at the moment he doesn't interrupt them, even helped with the official statement.
What's you've seen in the preview is the proposition of marriage after the accident when it became obvious she's in real danger.

That's said I still hope he doesn't get to much screen time with the FL. I just don't think it's so bad at the moment.

I think the father choose to ignore the fact he had another child. And then suddenly he had to deal with the consequences (although I guess his wife was already sick before FL arrived). He's a coward and it's easier to blame the child instead of facing the consequences by himself.

In the first episode I was expecting to drop the drama because the FL seemed obnoxious. But somehow I really like it and FL'character turned out to be interesting.

The drama's world calls the FL a commoner. But in fact she comes from the riches (albeit illegitimate) and was educated in some private school for the elite. She isn't a stranger to the ML.
About the secretary: that was clearly a negligence and went against his duties but mistakes like this happen irl too. And in the drama it was needed to advance the plot.

How people recognise fictional character's cars is beyond me. For me, i thought it was the prime minister until I saw BWS's face;)

It's obvious she's a target. Otherwise there wouldn't be screen time wasted on letting viewers know that the car was in the garage.
What remains unsure is who was the culprit. There was a scene where the Queen and her father talked about eliminateing that was meant to suggest they are the culprit. But it the Jin Mu actor that plays the father so I hope it's a red herring and there's going to be less obvious mastermind.

Any way, I think you ignore the drama's world's logic when you say that young King would be always observed if the queen's father was the culprit. The child was guarded and observed. But for people who are so strict about rules, hierarchy and noble lineage it's simply unthinkable that someone would break the rules and let the child do something against the protocol. He wasn't supposed to be in the residence, even in her car. For them that is such a crazy idea as if they were trying to poison the ML by putting the posion in raw fish food (because they believe that if he's supposed to never eat such a food he would never do that).

I think you ignore the story's logic when you say it would be a plot hole if FL was the target.
