I got scammed.

I was expecting a very serious drama with serious characters and dialogue/monologues but what I got is ridiculous slapstick comedy. Like how come the characters were less silly as 8yo than now as adults XD First this ending scene in the first episode. Her slipping gliding like 10meters down the heel and falling into the princes arms with romamtic music cue, sun cuddently setting and some kind of blossoms suddently flowing from the side. This was such a parody I cracked up. And then this scene continues in this episode being even funnier with them falling into water, the girl panicking, the guard panicking, the eunuch panicking and the prince looking so done XD I swear I laughed so hard I had pain in my thorax. And then it continues with Yi San being a fucking sadistic manchild torturing the girl in writing letter till she cries and then stands in the corner smirking while watching her despair.I guess it follows the typical kdrama formula in "lets give them first episodes some laughs and cute romance and continue to turture the characters in a melodramatic plot later"

This drama plays games with me. On one hand a lot of the plot is sich a typical kmelodrama esp the overbearing parents *rme* but on the other hand I am really surprised how unwavering the couple is. I love that they fight for their own life so to say. Parents think they alway did and will know best but sorry they need to learn to respect their adult children pri ate life. I love that the leads do insist on living their life the way they want. Nevertheless I kind of still expect a moment where one of them will waver and want break up but I hope it wont last too long.I also like the side stories. Biggest minus in this drama is Ki Yongs acting for me > < still.

I was very happy to see Zheliu alive, didnt see that coming and Zhuoyus rebellion is all planned? I still dont feel like Jiangming is an awesome strategist or somethibg, I still feel betrayed and used just as Haishi was. It was satisfying to see Haishi throwing his marriage letter in his face :D Well I know theyll orobably make up in the next ep but its nothing I'll appreciate. I dont ship them at all. I would hate him less if hed fall an his knee in front of her, cried, beg for forgivenes and promised to mever use her again or have secrets and to try and be a better person in general. But did he do instead? Grabbed her so she couldbt escape and traght up told her "I am marrying you" not "Please marry me" with a stone face -_-

This blows my mind. Tears of fury struck me.

I mean I never really liked Jiangming and how he treated the people who trust him or even for some reason love him but he went way overboard now. He is a fucking sociopath that only has his goal in front of him and he is just using everyone around him for that. There is nothing noble in him. I hate him so much. I really dont want to see him as a love interest for Haishi. I really hope she FINALLY drops her obsession with him and realizes what he really is... Just what Youdu said, a privileged man who just wants to win no matter the cost. Either his life or anybody elses! I hope Youdu comes back and Haishi leaves Jiangming and he dies alone really. ?
