The Downfall of Xia Mo?

This episode was too cute. It showed you more of Luo Xi's past aswell as the one of Xia Mo and Ou Chen.

I absolutely loved the romance in this episode aswell as the others.



I absolutely can't stand An Hui Ni. Why, just because she made her own bed is she suddenly unable to lie in it? She herself is the cause of the scandals breakout, So why does she have to tear down the hopes of Xia Mo's career just because hers is gowing straight down the drain.



As for the scene with her brother, What? Is he going blind.. I certainly don't hope so. He is so adorable, And lately Xia Mo don't have the time to be with him too much either.. Please say that it is just another alert.



So as for now, I am loving this drama more and more.. The ending for this episode was by my opinion a major cliffhanger.. I am unable to stop watching it..

Its getting even better!

The first episode of Sweet Stranger and Me gave us the questions, this episode we get some answers.

Episode 2 was even better than the the first episode and im not suprised because the tv rating was even higher.. The last episode ended with Na Ri asking if Nan Gil the question we all have been waiting for! And...yes he said that he is her step-father...

The acting and the chemistry was out if this world and i loved it! The entire episode made me fangirl lol.

In the beginning we found out that he is married to her mother... but honestly what kind of mother would marry a guy 3 years younger than her daughter and die lol just like that i dont blame Na Ri(Soo Ae)

for not trusting her so called step-father. As the episode goes our second male lead calls our main conn artist and other words lol....while he starts to show his fatherly affection( at this point i was thinking how lucky was the mother for getting a younger and handsome husband... XD maybe it was love, i mean, i love him already)(a father husband material) By the end of the episode we get even more quetions while getting a good view of Kim Young Kwang's handsome back.

1) What are these tattoes?

2) Was he a gangster?

3) How did the mother get so lucky?

4) How did the mother die?

5) Where is the uncle?

So many right?! There are more...so far this ones seem important...episode 3 might give us answers hopefully. Lets support this fantastic drama *clap* *clap* ! Hope this review was helpfull if you want to watch the drama please do, you wont regret it!

Ep 21: Grooming?

We open to the Emperor delivering a well-rehearsed argument for all the reasons that he should make Li'er his Queen: 1)Every state is represented in his harem and because of that he has to deal with the complications of offending someone with his harem 2)A queen from the common people means no feuds among his ministers for power Li'er tries to back out of this gracefully by explaining that while she is not a negative, she is not beneficial and he should find someone beneficial and besides she doesn't want to deal with the harem. The king ignores this and tells his grandmother that he knows she disagrees, so when he rides out to battle Han, should he win, he gets to have her as Queen The grand dowager tells him to bring a concubine to battle is the height of scandal. He says nope, it just means that our state is so prosperous he can bring a concubine to battle-- Ru'er predictably states why can only Li'er go with you? And he replies, well you can come, just be prepared to fight. LOLZ Afterwards, Li'er tells him she is upset because 1)you never talked to me about this and 2)I don't want my child to have to fight over the throne if I become Queen The emperor diverts her attention by trying to give her a gift (he is so eager, like a kid you can tell he is barely containing his excitement) and its a tray of oranges. Predictably, she says I don't want these, even if its a rare delicacy, and he knocks them to the floor but he isn't angry. He says okay, did deeper. And he pulls out her grandpa's dagger. You know what this is? This is grooming 101 and its working because she is very happy. Then he sits in his throne room, her at his side, receives Han, promotes him to Middle Guard which means only Li Zhong is above him, and he gives them permission to talk privately whenever they want. She is stunned. Li'er returns to her rooms with Han, and explains that she can't understand why she saved him, and she doesn't understand her feelings now. (she is being buttered up!) And the emperor asks Li Zhong if he is being to lax with her, and Li Zhong, not being a moron, says nope. And the emperor says he has finally realized that he can win her by giving her freedom--this is hysterical. All of this chaos, all of it is because he wants to get laid. I love it. Meanwhile Jing is going into the mountains with Lan'er and someone is following them...I can't remember who the guy is who sent them but he has appeared in older episodes...and it seems this guy wants the mythical legendary sword technique.... The royal eunech, ghao, is discussing what to do with li'er. He acknowledges she is not an enemy but he can't call her a friend. So he decides for now to leave her be but he will have spies reporting on her. In a great scene, Han confronts Ru'er and tells her that he was appointed to protect Li'er and she needs to stop bullying her otherwise he will act. Essentially he tells her that the emperor gave me this position to cut down people he can't--the emperor won't touch you because he has to think about politics, but I will gladly risk life and limb to protect Ru'er so you better stop-- (so I have lost count of all the warnings that Ru'er has received) Just before leaving for battle, Li'er reports to the emperor what she knows of Han: Han Fei, the advisor, is smart but has a stutter. He is basically the powerful man while the king is a joke. It kind of illustrates to his men that she has a purpose to serve other than warming the emperor's bed, which is what they will likely suspect. BUT they reconvene with wind and air, the guys who killed her pops. She freaks, tries to kill them, and the emperor blocks her sword with his armored body. He asks her to stop he orders the guys away, and she says that you only care about losing some good fighters and not about the fact that they killed my grandpa. he says no, I am only concerned about them hurting you (gushing) and she drops the sword and leaves, and he issues an order that the elemental fighters are to never appear in front of her or he will kill them. Alone, he begins to discuss his battle plans and shares his plans to build the wall of china. In a BIG soap box speech, he tells her that even if the people must suffer, it's to create a stable, better world and even if history derides him as a criminal, he doesn't care (OMG THIS IS DUMB). While Jing is fighting for his life, she and the emperor are fussing over how to sleep.... Thoughts: I liked this episode because the emperor is like this adorably smug cute guy who is so happy that he has finally found the right tactics to get her in bed and he is clearly so happy that he is making headway with her meanwhile Jing is like fighting for his life AND the emperor is just doing what he wants, no matter the consequences (like the queen issue)

Haha Myungjin's antics are always so amusing.…

Haha Myungjin's antics are always so amusing. I can see how much it's a tough love for the mom to have to deal with such a naughty youngest child wwww.Also it's amusing how much Hwan try to the deny the possibility that Jaeyi could've liked him as well his thought process just blocked it completely. Why did you end up falling for this idiot indeed, Jaeyi. ??? Good to see even Seung-on had noticed the oddity but guess it'll be a while still for him to find out the truth. It's still so cute seeing Hwan and Jaeyi together.Alas, no matter how much we'd hope the enemy not gonna be too smart... looked like Jaeyi gonna still be in danger not that the Minister Jo had figured out her identity. Tho now it makes me wonder about the queen. Was she secretly trying to protect Hwan? Was that court lady acting like a double agent or smth? Such confusion ?Still, was that icicle/woodpecker girl killed because she wore Jaeyi's bracelet? (So instead of golden hairpin in this story it's the bracelet? ?)
