unfately

I knew this would be angsty but...wow I miss CP San

Anyway LEE JUNHO am I right ladies and gays🥵

Yall I can't handle if san gets like an actual queen and other consorts like he did in real life lmao

My favorite thing is that she knows it

"I want to make a family with you" the way I SCREAMED

Did I hear it correctly? A three-year mourning period?? So there's a huge time jump?

Just finished ep 11 and I really have to say I love how active and smart and independent the female heroine is. Both she and the crown prince are interesting characters separately.

I'm only at ep 6 but all I can say is the people are SO frustrating omg

You're exactly right! The king very obviously has a liking for young women. Both the queen and the consort are very young. The queen is actually about 7 years younger than his daughter! While age did and still does matter in Korean society, rank back than was even more important. And since concubines are former court maids and thus slaves, she is placed very low in rank. Not to mention that her husband went "mad" and tarnished the royal reputation. She lives a comfortable life, but with little power.

No she's still the consort of the CP's father and is allowed to live in the palace because the CP is her son. The other woman is the royal consort of the king! The one who tricked the CP with the food together with the princess, the kings daughter

Yes because she's a consort! A concubine.

My Korean is rusty at its best and especially with the old Korean...but I'm pretty sure he said that if San took her/has his way with her (any wording for taking her to bed) this passion he feels for her will be gone because that's what everyone goes through (kind of like implying that this is a man's experience) 🤔 though maybe you're right about the "concentration" part...either way he was implying for San to get it out of his system sexually

"Just take her. Once you lay her the passion will subside" the way I HATE this guy omg

The running to each other across a battlefield made my heart flutter not gonna lie 😂

Historical kdramas make me believe kings and queens weren't powerful at all 😅😅😅 it's always the mean old men in the red gowns having power

I got whiplash from how fast they went from "you're annoying but lowkey cute" to "let me hold your hand I like you"

I'm really not vibing with San choking her... :( and to be honest, this gives me bad foreshadowing vibes about him and this whole possible madness being handed down to the son...it IS a melodrama after all sidgskdbajg. I still love it a lot though I just wish it would be addressed. But at the same time she's a servant and that was the master's right. But I don't like it specifically because it's intertwined within the romance element.

Guess I've become a Junho stan now...whew this man is just dreamy. And he can act so well...this role is made for him

It's the kind of drama you watch just for fun so you don't have to think about your responsibilities. It can't compete with the other ongoing historical dramas but I've grown quite fond of it!
