Discussion Thread for "The Sleepless Princess" (ended 3rd Sept) and other currently airing dramas

Hi C 

I am now 3 hours ahead of you and I go for my run at at around 5:30am because there’s less people.  There’s usually at least one other person there. Just got back from the park ( picnic) 

I see quite a number of actresses with dimples. 

I watched a bit because it was already too late to finish two whole episodes. 

Which ep they slept together? Must have missed that. I watched until the part where ML rescue FL from uncle so didn’t know where uncle escaped to. 

Yes that orange one , the one she wore went she saw the statues. I like her posing in front of the statue and she’s so kind to Song girl. 

Ok i will have to watch the part where Song brother tried to kill FL.

Hi K

Black sugar ( brown sugar here) is the dark coloured sugar that is added to the milk tea and it’s popular here. Are you talking about brown sugar ginger tea taken during period?  Musang king is a species of durian , a thorny fruit with soft yellow flesh in the inside which is really pungent. It originates from Malaysia. I am sure you’ve tried Mango salad. I made pandan (screwpine leaves) chicken today. 

FL went to the Treasury to look for the arhat and was trapped in there. A Shuang told her to look for the arhat and draw a replica. Only with the arhat First Uncle can take on his position of the Duke, now currently held by ML’s father. 

The Song family is very influential and they try to have a marriage alliance with the Li family to gain control of Li family business-the mines I think. Song brother was trying to prevent FL from escaping. He saw ML keeping an eye on his wife so he took her elsewhere here .

CG was just crazy, she just pretended to be so prim and proper. 

Sparkle Love is ok. You can watch and give it a go. 

I am also interested to see who FL’s parents are. 

Hi C

I run in the oval in the morning because it’s cooler and I don’t need sunblock. Do you run in the park as well?It has been hot these few days.We also got brown sugar milk tea today.

Now I realized I watch quite a fair bit of Ep 25, skip Song girl scenes, silly girl always bullying the servants. I prefer Song girl to crazy cousin. Yeah what you said about the cousin is so true so silly. The Song brother is not a good chap .  FIL banished FL temporarily .  She’s safer with her mom. 

In real life FL has short hair but I don’t like it. She looks better with long hair.She gets along well with ML. The BTS are fun to watch. 

Not into K-drama. So many choices for C-drama.

SL is indeed very short each episode. I already figured out the culprit. Why would he risk his friendship? 

Hi K

Where are you up to with LIS? The cast is growing on me especially ML.

Hi M,

I stay very close to a park... I normally do my runs just after work when I work for home. I just finished my brown sugar milk tea. We have 1for1 deals as well.

The Song girl is quite funny with the stepping of the foot LOL. Just that a bit too much on the like-don't like, leave, don't leave... I rather see more of the leads. FL is lucky that ML sent ppl to protect her. I guessed that she'll be fine.

For him, he just needed to get into the provincial team... but I was thinking so what - you will be in the last place of the team...  what good does it do? weird. And of cos jealousy plays a part as he thought ML has everything.

There will always be someone better than him so is he going to eliminate every one? 

I stay close to Oval but if I don’t do my run in the morning, I don’t have the time coz I still have to cook after work.  If I live in Asia, I don’t even need to cook. The Asian food here is not very palatable. Even their roast pork isn’t good so sometimes I make my own roast pork. 

I find Song girl and the slingshot quite frightful. She’s a menace. Her impending wedding will be dreaded among the servants. 

Hi M,

For him probably is just because he is jealous of the ML thinking he has everything, even the girls he likes is liking the ML.

I thought some Asian food standard should be okay? Do you like Vietnamese food? But roast pork I know, i had really expensive wanton noodles in Australia and I can get much much better ones in SG for 1/5 of the price.

LOL,with the song girl she is really made for the 3 uncle. He is a menace as well, throwing and breaking stuff.

Oh, that is definitely an act... they have a common goal against the Lees and he is just making use of her. Yah, not sure why just being with the song guy gives her the right to act like that... it is just a bit weird this part.

Yeah the pregnant part is quite apparent when she lose her appetite. I think next episodes will be quite fast since they need to wrap things up in 3 episodes. The pregnancy, FL background, Song plot etc...

I just finished LIS episode 6... still not really convinced yet. The SFL is really irritating here and her hair... she looks like those aerobics video girl from the 80s. I find her more irritating here than my roommate is a detective. That one I am ok.

Hi M,

Busy day... 

I had some really good Vietnamese food in Perth, definitely better than what I had in SG. Besides that everything else is good/fine except for the Wanton noodles.

It should have something to do with the lotus symbol. I am guessing this has something to do with power struggle in the capital, which the FL background is also part of it since she is a princess.

The third uncle is just childish, he sees that she always helps him especially on the song girl.

LIS - The way the SFL is acting, is just like trying to be in a non-serious relationship. If I am the guy I'd think so. But one thing how the ML acts is quite like the ML in OMSL... 

Halo M,

Busy Mon and Tue due to release of my K-Dramas LOL. I was contemplating Thai food just yesterday as well (with Thai milk tea).

Now that you mentioned, Xmas is not too far away. I am only busy with quarter 4 and totally not aware. I haven't been sending cards out for a while...

Yes, the SML drew a drawing with the lotus pattern in the Song guy as he suspected he had something to do with it - since on the killings and assassination attempt happened when he was here. He was able to use this to get the ML out of trouble and confirm his suspicion, smart. The lotus is the link behind everything - may have something to do with the royal family since FL could have been a princess.

Song family is not royalty, think they are more like Marquis status just like Lee. Normally these family have prominent forefathers who aided in building the empire etc.

LOL, she is going to get punished again. The previous time she was forced to stand on one leg LOL.

ML is in LIS has secretly admired the FL when they were in school. He actually wrote a confession letter. So she is his weakness that the specs dude seemed to wanna make use of. But guess he got drawn in himself. I think the foster sister is really pretty, looks like a Taiwanese.

The ML is a generous dude, think he doesn't care about the material world coming from the warzones, he cares about pride and love. Well we have only 3 episodes left, we do need to see the cousin come to a more sorry end since she has been given so many chances?

Hi M,

I just finished a shitty episode of the K-Drama I am following, not feeling that bad but just something lacking LOL. I am going to start 9-tailed fox another k-drama.

LIS I finished episode 9, still no urge to bingewatch. The SFL part I just ff and think nothing is missed. The FL and the specs guy plot also a bit perculiar, He is from a competitor and always appears before you, don't you think he is up to something?  And the ML just punches him because of a silly statement? Writers let this pass just for the sake of having a love rival. For me it is farfetched.

I am just looking forward to OMSL, and we will also complete SL this week. :)

The cousin I am sure we will see more of her. She did quite a good job since we hate her so much. LOL

Let me know about general lady.

Hi M,

Feel so tired today. Going straight to bed after this.

LIS I meant when ML confronted them 1st time, FL knows he is a competitor... she should steer clear no matter what. As of now, even he don't know that he like her already. Only the sister knows.

OMSL also ending this week. Lets hope that we can find something to discuss about after that. I started on a c-anime last night... looks okay.. abit like final fantasy.

Together? As in twogether or something like that? I think I will also stop any bingewatch... have been doing it for LAR and now OMSL.
