There are two symbolisms that I have noticed in this ep:The cockblock scene shows how devoted Ryo is to Zen, the way he looked up at him is so 🤌🏻AND WHEN RYO SNIFFED THE COAT, PANNING TO ZEN SHOWERING WHILE HE IS DOING THAT, man he is just there! Ryo respects Zen much to not demand or bypass their boundaries, not to force it upon him but to build it smooth and slowly!!!I love this ep!

This is literally i dare say the worst episode in the entire show. Absolutely pointless. We didn't even get to see them get married in 1 episode peacefully and now suddenly they are getting a divorce? so whats the point of a contract marriage drama when 70 percent is the setup and 1 percent is the actual marriage. Really disappointing because the show had an excruciating amount of potential to be destroyed by a mediocre plotline. Making the Lord the person who poisoned the promce was so obvious and the Queen who killed the layer king. Guys try and be creative like come on

Big improvement over the awful writing of last episode. It was good that they quickly resolved the stupid and contrived 'misunderstanding' trope of last episode and got Zheng Chu and Su Mang back on track. We are finally starting to see some tiny steps in TGG's being forced to reconsider her relationships with Zheng Chu, Su Chang and Su Mang. But it's still moving really slow. They are really dragging out her childish infatuation to near obsession levels and it's not really cute or entertaining anymore. The joke is past its due date. Hopefully the writers will contrive ways to get her to start to look towards Su Chang more earnestly and they will let her grow up. Meanwhile, on the Tang Ming front, we see some nice progress in his relationship with Yan XiaoQiu, who continues to be one of the very few likable characters. Here is the open question, though: Did Tang Ming actually sleep with Shan Shan on the night she pretended to be drunk in order to seduce him? Or did he do the right thing and leave? The show left that un-clear. Feels like that will come back to haunt things.

Ok. So she is asking him to face the problem and FIGHT, while she gives up at the end to protect him? Queen Mother finding out the contract gave the plot a table-turning moment. If only they had realised their love for each other earlier and burnt the contract. Still, that keeps the story interesting.I agree that she really wants to save him. But divorce at a time like this will only validate the people's outburst. They need to face the issue together. It feels like they are trying to save each other independently. Instead of reaching out to others, they need to spend time together on what to do. They are being distanced at a crucial time, and I guess that's what will be resolved in the next episode

1st off i have to say - i know i have been hating on Win a bit... ahem ok a lot but every time we see him he got that stank face on. think this the 1st time i saw him enjoying himself & actually looking cute, so i get why he & Game got together even though they best buds if u ask me as we haven't really seen them interact in anyway. now that i've gotten that off my chest i have to say the 2nd couple kinda turned out to be a toxic mess - that's how i see them, so seeing how they (the writer/director/producer) decided to "finish" that plot made me uncomfortable & ironic that they the 1st couple that moved me by their kiss, this time it turned me off - more so cause of the NC scene that followed. bummer - ***********************************************************the mains - Pi remained a douche from start to finish & i don't think he is a different person now given how he tried to mess with God's head. so i for one wasn't angry at how God reacted or treated Deiw, it was time for Deiw to do the wooing - so seeing him work for the one he loved - to regain his trust & then communicate when he agreed to talk made me happy. was happy they finally made up & were as sweet as ever - but nothing can last - not when the mother wasn't dealt with - just hope nothing is wrong with the grand father that she can use to guilt her son into giving up what he worked hard to gain - God & their relationship let alone his freedom.

This episode revealed almost everyone's truth. I didn't like it when the King cried, he really needed that hug from I-An. The Prime Minister is so annoying, meaning that he is an amazing actor, but I think he should just get away from our couple. The King's mother was innocent, and I think she needs a vacation. Hui-Ju was right to go back to her house to ask her dad for help, but she was wrong in going to the Prime Minister first. The solution given was the only feasible option in my eyes as well.

I loved that Mr. Queen is getting So-Yong's memories. That's really spicing up everything—giving new associations, revealing some secrets, and the best part, of course, having some sympathy and feelings for the King. 🔥So, now I wonder if any of my previous questions could actually turn out to be true? Are both souls now in So-Yong's body? Or maybe always have been? 🤔 It will be very interesting to see how this unfolds.But that secret about the well... The girl who comforted little Cheol-Jong probably was little So-Yong and he fell in love with her since childhood, maybe? But since he cannot really remember, Hwajin just swooped in saying she was the girl there? Could that be why he feels such "love" for her now? Because of those twisted memories? If that's so, everything else that's happening with his heart is just logical. Now, when the layers obscuring the Queen from his heart are slowly disappearing, he is more drawn to her than Hwajin. 😲🤔But I wonder how this romance will end. Because at the moment, Bong-Hwan's personality is what piques the King's interest and curiosity. I am not sure if it would be the same with the real So-Yong. 🤷♀️And Hwajin is boiling over how the King now chooses the Queen over her more often. All that jealousy will just cause trouble along the way, I guess. Probably, the same could be said about Byeong-in and his love for So-Yong and jealousy toward the King. 😔

This episode is a dramatic downturn in script quality over the prior episodes because all of a sudden the writers have both the ML and the FL behaving as stupid and irrational as their surrounding cast of characters. Up until now, both the leads were the pillars of sanity compared to all the loonies around them but suddenly in this episode they both behave like idiots, leading, of course, to misunderstandings and over-reactions. In other words, the writers have leaned heavily into both the 'plot-induced-stupidity' and the 'contrived misunderstanding' tropes just to create some humor and false drama. I really hope this is not a regular occurrence in this show going forward.

After this episode, I am having a few thoughts about So-Yong's soul.What if her soul has been in her body the whole time, only dormant? What if that moment when she tried to drown herself just pulled her and Bong-Hwan's souls together like a magnet? Because maybe she didn't really want to die, and it was like her last cry for help? And his soul was the only one that "heard" it in the end? 🤔I think in that little moment when the Queen woke up with the King by her side, it was the real So-Yong, not Bong-Hwan. And the reason she could actually get out of her dormant state, even if for that tiny moment, is what is causing the memories to come back? 🤔And could that be the link that pulled Bong-Hwan back into her body again, because the link is way too strong? Otherwise, I don't know why he would get pulled back now if he had already gotten away... I don't know, but everything that's happening is giving me many thoughts. 🤷♀️And I really loved to watch our King in that scene where he and the cousin had that argument in the Queen's room. ❤️😏

A lot happened in this episode, but all I want to talk about now is the cliffhanger. 😲Does that mean Bong-Hwan's body has been unconscious this whole time, and now regaining that consciousness is calling for his soul back? Where's the Queen's soul then? 🤔

I love the second couple, the crazy and evil Crown Prince and his servant. Their intimate scenes are wild and add a chaotic, exotic energy to the series

China really never misses when it comes to historical BL. This drama has everything, beautiful cinematography, emotional romance, palace betrayal, martial arts, reincarnation, and insane chemistry between Yin Qi and Pei Yanzhi. The childhood best friends to enemies to lovers storyline hurt so much, especially when they only realized their feelings at death. The second chance plot made everything even more emotional. One of the best historical BL dramas in recent years easily 10/10.

this was a frustrating ep on so many levels, so Pi & Deiw never dated?!? & ironically he was the male version of Jane. he took pity on Deiw & wanted to force him out of his shell & he really thought his friends would be the people to exposé Deiw the introvert too?!? & if that wasn't enough (how he treated him, very condescendingly) now he is trying to sabotage Deiw & God's relationship - to what end?!? cause he is butthurt that Deiw is getting along with God's friends?!? petty much!?? ****************the sad fact is Deiw wont communicate, so i don't fault God for having enough & believing Pi's lies. like the whole bracelet incident - Deiw needed to drag that sh*t out?!? he couldn't just tell God it was a keepsake from his father?!? heck they still haven't had a serious conversation about his mother. but that's the problem God keeps giving Deiw space & time to be the one to initiates everything & anything, but he never does - just expects God to accommodate & cater to him - like i've said Deiw is very selfish & God is finally noticing/realizing this - how one side their relationship really is. that's the main reason they can't find middle ground, cause God goes out of his way taking all the steps to come towards Deiw, while he won't lift a finger for God. any relationship would suffer if it was this one sides cause even a giver needs to feel he not in the relationship all alone - like i am sure God is feeling at this stage. ********************************************************************************************ironically the main couple isn't the only one with issues - i get Beer is hurt cause Wan rejected him - but i don't get why he's using Ton to gaslight Wan. Wan's worries r valid - instead of communicating & reassuring him, he is playing mind games with Wan & if this forces Wan into a relationship he is worried to be in... is that something i should be happy about?!??? **************so yeah this was frustrating to watch, Deiw - when he wants can stand-up for himself but when he needs to talk he turns mute especially with God, so it's fair play the turn around where God isn't accommodating & understanding - where he needs time to himself, maybe if Deiw will be on the receiving end he will realize what he has in God & start to change for the relationships sake. **********************************************************************************************************************************side note: i hope the grandfather doesn't die & cause the rift between the mains to grow bigger or worse God forgets his justification in distancing himself from Deiw & him folding cause Deiw is mourning.
