Is CSS's age a reason why the kisses in this drama are very proper!? ( Also this is a costume drama. ) We know cdramas can have sultry ones!

In the CSS's meltdown scene, I love how she cannot look into LBY's eyes when she lies she cried because she misses her home! I am going to say it again this director has taken this series to next level! I pray he gets to direct more romantic dramas.

That sounds great! Will check the series on Viki! Some lines in youtube version seem confusing.

Are the english subtitles same as on youtube?

:P Niaoniao has just found out that being in love feels beautiful! Rather than thirsty she is fascinated and surprised at how blind she has been all this while. Mr Perfect was always right in front of her.

I m also waiting for her to find out that mom has always loved her even though she could never express it. I want to see if there is will be such a scene!

I love how the lead actors and also the supporting cast never overact! It is perfection! No one goes overboard. And this director knows what we want! Please Bu Yi's wine drinking shot was the best execution of the 'female gaze' of late! Go Niaoniao!

Ah! Hope we get to see the united family in the finale!

Thank you! I did totally miss this character during first watch. Would be able to recall when they mention him?

Thank u!

Ep 7: How many children does General Cheng Shi have?

When Yaun comes uninvited to the granny's birthday he says his father has same master as Cheng's eldest son who isnt present at the event.

I thought it was just CSS, her twin brother and Song. Is there another elder sibling we havent met?

Thank you @nananur. This is going to be so interesting! Cannot wait for part 2.

Oh no!! I thought they will only be separated because he will be fighting away from the capital! Yuan Shen hasn't given us any reason so far for us to like him.

Thank you so much for sharing this! This is very helpful.

I am currently on ep 15. Could someone pls help me understand the relation between Gu Qian Fan, To be Prime minister Xiao and Xiao Wei?

Gu Qian Fan is Xiao's biological son, but adopted by his maternal uncle? And Xiao Wei is Xiao's another son?

How is it possible that people are unaware of such a high profile person's children? Wouldn't the family records be clear enough?

Considering this writer worked on Be Melodramatic and the director on Deep Rooted Tree, this series was a let down.

Lot of reasons lead to low rating, it could be that 23:10KST timeslot on a Friday is not ideal for an idol drama. An immensely popular series Penthouse 3 airs on SBS on same day in the 22:00 to 23:10KST slot.

The leads and the supporting casts are no way lacking in acting department. The script is very good for a 12 eps series. They are covering one tragic and 2 potentially happy love stories (Ma Ha & Ryoc, Ri Ah & Shax singer) along with realities of idol life.

My only rant is that styling department were partial to the boys! Ma Ha's hair extensions could have been better. Tea party's clothes could have been better. Jeong Ji So and the girls wore better clothes in their youtube dance practice video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DK77sNa7DlA
