Ok at least the ending of ep 8 is not some crazy cliff hanger (unlike last week!!!!!). It’s a fitting ending to wrap up the first half of the show. At least I can work in peace this week without this drama living in my mind rent free.

My friend every episode is crazy over here

Now the head court lady is just reduced to a petty villain 😭 she’s doing this all out of revenge smh, she’s the real crazy one out here. But then again the pettiest people come up with the most elaborate schemes, so it’s not like it doesn’t make sense.

I just wished she wasn’t such a clear cut “bad” character, previously her morals and motivations were more grey and it added to the political intrigue.

1. Make CP jealous - another man gave her the sleeves
2. Red sleeeves means she’s a court lady and belongs to the king (and also cp, who will eventually be king), covering it could have a more abstract meaning meaning - deokim wants to have a own life and freedom, and not be bound by a life where she has no power to make her own choices. (This was kind of the theme of ep 7, that she has her own will and thoughts)

She’ll always be in danger, as long as she’s with him 😂

Well it’s mainly for the drama plot I guess? It would be evidence that she was the one who saved the CP when he was young instead of deokro.

I wonder when and how they are gonna do a time skip… maybe they’ll just compress the timeline instead?

That scene where hyebin put princess hwawan in her place with such grace. GO HYEBIN

Probably

I kinda wish this was more angsty, now that I’ve gotten a taste of the angst in ep 8 HAHAHA. What can I say… I love torture and suffering

Yeppp she’s so lucky she wasn’t caught with that

This was the first kdrama I watched 10 years ago in December. Thank you for introducing me to the world of kdrama dong yi. I will forever remember you fondly

I’m glad that at the halfway point the plot is still intact. I love this, thank you for making this drama, it might be my favourite one ever. 😭 I started watching my first kdrama 10 years ago, and it was an mbc historical drama (dong yi) so I feel like the red sleeve is the perfect drama to celebrate 10 years of kdrama loooll

Youth of may was fluffy cute rom com in the first half and a political tragedy in the second

It probably is important, I think it’s related to crown prince sado

I say this but I still felt warm when they hugged lmaoooo. I feel feminism leaving my body when I watch this show sksksksksks I’m a rational person I swear

Exactly he’s like GENERATIONS older than the average boomer

Tbh it kinda shows the reality of their power gap. I want romance not realism but I’ll accept it I guess 😭

It also feels like she’s running this court lady ring solely out of revenge

When you want more eps but more eps means you are getting closer to the end 😭
