EY why are you angry at me now~?? :p It´s just a bet because I am sure it will happen.Not that I want that though....

Oh rofl :D Hmmm I guess I am a little too distracted sometimes(T.T)
episode 18 was killing me.. from the beginning, i thought shikyung will die in this episode..because of all the great scenes of him then at the chinese prisson, gosh..i hardly breath i thought hang ah really could die and the ending... *sigh* i believe shikyung won't betray jaeha.. they still have the secret code...we haven't seen them using it... so perhaps they've used it on the phone call... because i think i saw jaeha's face changed a bit when shikyung called him..
Hahahahaha, you two are cracking me up. :D

@Miri: prepare yourself, because I'm not going to go light on you and choose a drama you'll need to go on drugs to watch, lol.
Just kidding, I'm not as devious as I sound.

@Violet... gosh, you didn't have to mention that letter. Why of why did he write a letter????? Never write a letter before jumping into a life threatening situation.
*thrown into desperation herself, runs out of the thread*

Maybe I'll start to hope we never ever hear about that letter again...

P.S. How lucky I am there is no limit to how many words we can write in episode review, or I'd go mad...

Oh, and by the way, not that you mention it, did anyone else notice BongGu's room in the latest episode??? My five year old cousin as a more mature look in his room then he did, the giant teddy-bear? REALLY, Bong-Gu-sshi? Or should I start calling him BongGuya~ from now on... That was a very-very clever solution to his character, I'm sure his complex also includes his f***ed-up childhood stress, and I don't know what else... And actually when they showed his room, I was not surprised at all, it was like, I had already imagined his room in my head with many toys and games... and the way he dresses up... his socks and a little short pants, doesn't he seem more and more childish every time? It's actually very creepy to watch him like that, that is why I like his evil character, he's PERFECT!!! A PERFECT MADMAN WHO IS ABLE TO DO ANYTHING AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT ELSE... *shudder*

I remembered one more thing... ShiKyung's letter... I'm again worried... I hope it's the most passionate love letter EVER, and HE is the one who's gonna read it out loud to JaeShin!!!! I mean guys like him are always the most passionate ones when to comes to romance, aren't they?


Yes, I agree...I hope she loses that bet. oorie Shi Kyung cannot die like that, right? :( I'm getting flashbacks to another drama where a character died near the end and I was like: "No, he did not just die, did he?" *sigh*

I did notice his room and it gave full credibility to his childish, creepy personality. I think that's what makes him scary, being so child-like. He's impulsive, wants attention, wants to be accepted by people, and wants a family that accepts him as he is, even if he has to torture people into submission and kill when they don't comply as he thinks they should.
wow..this John Mayer is one hell of a cunning man...!!!...poor princess..i wonder how she'll deal with it when she wakes up....Eun Shi Kyung, why are you such a manly man?!!!...i wuv you *sigh*...you CAN cry <3
Eun Shi Kyung better not die...and i don't think he's betraying LJH...i'm sure they have a plan...a solid plan where Bong Gu will be kept guessing...they will definitely get out of this situation....they MUST....plus Hang Ah is coming to help too... i was wondering about the letter too..it better not be a goodbye letter...i will not forgive him (ESK) if he dies...
I was hoping I was the only one who doesn't think things look good for Eun Shi Kyung... :( And I'd forgotten about the letter... letters are never a good sign... Maybe they'll just put him in a coma, so he can miraculously wake up after Jae Shin reads the letter... Honestly, from the episode where she sang to him I've been rooting for them even more than the main couple... T_T Currently listening to his song from "What's Up?" on repeat while praying to the drama gods... :)

Joining you in your prayers...
I hope the drama gods care for the destiny of the whole crew of this drama... otherwise I'm not responsible for my actions... I have mentioned this several times... they should be warned... :D
A side note on the consistency of this plot: if you go re-watch the episode in which Bung Gu tells Jae Ha that he killed his brother, when Secretary Eun rushes into the room you can see the diary recorder under the King's portrait illuminated, as of recording. I love that details like these are carefully planned from the beginning and not suddenly fished out of the hat when needed. :)

I went back and rewarched the moment right after the episode was aired... perfectly worked out plan!
I have beeb sturck by an arrow...love this drama. I really like the two brothers but I do have a bad feeling about the older brother. I love brotherhood stories and this is just very very nice. But buy this drama has FIRE. I dion't wait two weeks for the final episodes so I have to use all of my willpower to turn away from this drama for a week or so, but I am on episode 3 and itls very very hard to leave it gahh :sob sob: *Addicted* :D
Just saw eps 17 & 18 1 Loved the passionate intensity that was hidden under ESK's stoic manner bursting out when he kissed the princess...swoooooon. 2. Totally get now why the princess blocked the memory of that night if they forced her to help kill her brother rotten buggers!! 3. I don't like it that ESK wrote a letter .... doesn't bode well....images of it being read sadly by the people he loves...NOOOOOOOOOOOO! 4. I don't think ESK has been turned by the baddies he is too strong mentally & has sense of justice running through him like a vein of gold in granite :) 5. I would love to know what the deal is with Bong Gu as many of you have mentioned he does seem very childish in his dress/mannerisms... I thought something traumatic happened to him as a kid maybe to turn him into this psycho.....at one point I did think perhaps he was the old Kings illegitimate son or even the Old Queens son herself out of an extra-marital affair that maybe she gave up for adoption.....that would explain his animosity towards the Royal family & why he wrote on the windopw "I AM KING" at the school when they were all kids. I dont understand why with all his wealth he would be so fixated on the Royal family....I hope they explain this in last 2 episodes.
I don't think evilness needs an explanation. Bung Gu's clearly always had an inferiority complex, mixed with megalomania, a lethal combination which is found pretty often in deranged criminals, like mafia bosses and the like.
I actually like it that they didn't retort to some makjang explanation like a secret birth, and hope they won'e play that card in the last episodes.
When he confronts the Queen Mother, on episode 16, he starts explaining what a "pitiful" child he had been, with a vulgar mother who had to earn her living to send him to good schools (schools with royals, no less) and a father who possibly never recognized him until the end (which we see in the first episode: he hands the son Club M, something he clearly didn't want to do before, or the son would have killed him a lot sooner). And I truly loved the Queen's reply: "I have known many people who came from difficult households, but most of them haven't turned like you. They are good, honest people." In a word: don't blame parents, environment and chances to excuse your rotten nature.
Some people are simply evil, period. We can call them sick, but I believe this is offensive towards people with a real sickness.

So, on my part I am very glad this drama didn't go in such a predictable direction and chose to let the viewer be the judge of each character.
