It is not boring in the least. Very fun imo.

One of the instances in the novella that helped me understand the characters better was when Ian’s father, the King describes him as “His heart burns like fire and sinks like water”. It was such a simple yet beautiful statement that I got goosebumps. It means that Ian loves intensely and fights ferociously, yet his soft heart hurts deeply and scares easily. Y’all have got to read the novella. It’s so good. Plus it has super cute anecdotes of Taeju and Dayoung. Even Yoon Yirang and the elder brother’s dynamic was explained clearly.

Funny thing, I did like this drama while it was airing and had fun watching it. But after reading the prequel novella about their past I got so obsessed that I had to rewatch. Everything felt so much better explained and the scenes were more impactful. Even the romance was more heart fluttering. If they had included those scenes and make it 16 episodes long, I guarantee everyone would’ve liked it so much more.

EEEEK this is my new obsession fr. Can’t wait to see how Mr Grumpy chases her lololol

And the Hospital Playlist one after that!

Cha Segye is so hot I have trouble breathing whenever he’s on screen. So dark and broody, and that deep voice. It’s been a while since I’ve been so attracted to a fictional man.

Is this… my next obsession?! ITS SO GOOD 10/10

7.8 is too less of a rating for this! I don't think there are many dramas that have adapted their source novels this well. Not to mention the acting was great and the directing impeccable. I love that all scenes were so naturally directed and all plot points made sense. This is truly a high quality drama. I'm a sucker for slowburn romances and this delivered it so PERFECTLY. I was squealing and giggling the whole time. Also it does the comedy so well, I was laughing from scene 1! The characters are so well fleshed out, even the ones that appear for only a moment. LOVE LOVE LOVE WOULD RECOMMED 100x

Exactly! He's such a perfect leader and husband. Comments saying the situation was made just for him to be a knight in shining armour are dumb. He's literally the one punishing her. How can a husband sit and watch his wife get caned?

Uh obviously it's not for the ML to protect her... it's to teach her that she can't do whatever she wants and interfere with military operations. She's a butcher from a little town with no education. What makes you think she is smarter than most commoners? The show has never portrayed otherwise. She has strength and a good heart but that isn't enough. You guys just want a 'strong' FL but aren't interested in seeing how she becomes strong. She wasn't born with Art of War in her hands. She needs to learn.

I think Changyu needs to learn a lesson this time. She is uneducated and reckless. Not her fault. She has always been independent and fights for her loved ones as she sees fit. As per the plot, she is set to become a general soon, and wisdom doesn't come magically. She needs to learn that brute strength and good intentions aren't the way to lead an army. In the book she does something similar and endangers the lives of many, and gets no punishment, just a scolding from Xie Zheng. After that she eventually becomes a general but we don't see how she got the knowledge. I think this is good.

It's going to be so fun when Tutor Tao finds out both his disciples are married to each other!!! A live in son-in-law at that!

The latest episodes were so good!!! My girl Changyu gets stronger and stronger. I can't wait for the family reunion today!

like around episode 20 I guess

One of the best sageuks in recent years. 16 episodes just flew by! High quality writing and a beautiful job done by the actors. I love it so much, wish I could erase my memory and rewatch. The romance is beautiful Every look every touch, every action and every word was so sweet. This is how you make a ride or die couple. It's actually like a brighter version of The Red Sleeve, in a world where they are more reckless and unafraid to love.

I love me a good old Romeo and Juliet plot!

Lol biting out of pure horniness while kissing isn't sadistic. I don't know what book you've read because he is nowhere near cruel.

I'll just say, in SOKP the ML was intimidating and scheming, in MJTY emotional and sensitive, here he's manly and passionate.

Possibly my favourite historical cdrama. It's just brilliant in every way. I've rewatched so many times.

He's not a dark character at all. He's just a typical man who thinks like a man and makes mistakes like a man. He's not a green flag soft boy or anything but he never hurts the FL or is scary. He's possessive but not in a psycho way, just in a jealous way. He loves her intensely. Honestly one of the best written MLs for me. He's like a younger version of Wei Shao from POB. Doesn't believe in love until he falls in love lol.
