I'ma give it a few more episodes to see if they have her "grow" in this area before I fully commit to the watch. It's giving a little too much damsel in distress and "love story" and not enough political scheming for my liking.

Eh...this can be more balanced is my point. I'm not interested in watch a supposed revengeful female lead with knowledge of the past always losing to the men or having to be bailed out by them. Heck the six year old emperor seems to better at his job than she is right now.
She needs to be smart and ruthless. Not some girl playing grown-up dress-up with the big boys.
I don't know. They are playing FL like she isn't that bright...or short-sighted may be the better word? She's not as calculating (or as ruthless) as she thinks she is, while everyone around her is a straight wolf. In the short Glory Back, when the Empress came back she was straight RUTHLESS - I need more of that from this FL. Definitely not ruthless enough for the situation.
i mean if she was always winning it would be unrealistic and people would say she has a plot armor
Always winning and always losing are two sides of the same coin. Neither works for me. I don't expect her to win always, but I don't expect it to be loss after loss either.
So is this gonna be a series where she's always kinda losing, until she "wins" in the end?
For all her knowledge of the past - she still seems to be on the losing end of things, partially b/c she doesn't look at things holistically and hasn't adjusted her way of thinking and b/c she's completely changed the original timeline things are different now even if people's motivations haven't changed.
I think people love it because of the chemistry between the leads. Older modern cdramas do not age well tbh. They…
Yeah. I STRUGGLE with older modern c-dramas b/c they always make the FL into adult children. I could never understand why the historical dramas had bad ass female characters (whether good or evil) but all the modern dramas the FL were grown children.
I'm nervous that the drama has reached it's peak, the evil cousin plot has not even properly started yet.
This. I feel like they are going to backend that plot so the last episodes are gonna lose all the fun and just be a bunch of suffering until they finally "win" in the last 15 minutes of the last episode.
I mentioned it in another comment, but I'm not interested in watching our ML lose the entire series to the Evil Cousin.
Like, from the preview, it looks like there will be a manufactured DUI plot...does that derail his launch and causes stock problems...putting the company in more danger.
Like c'mon. That gets old after while - particularly if they do this - loss after loss - 'till the end. No one wants to watch that. Have them go on the offensive already. Let's get over this finacee thing - dui - whatever and have out leads rack up some wins.
There was a promo shoot of the leads, in the staircase, in black clothes very hot scene, arms around shoulder,…
Pacing is good for their relationship (assuming they don't derail it in episode 7) - but the villain stuff isn't moving along as well, which means they might back end it. Not good. We'll see tho. I've loved all 6 episodes thus far. Hoping for the best.

Naw.
We got a serious villain plot boiling and K-Dramas will switch tones for no good reason. Perfect Crown is a good example of this. First 8 episode perfect rom-com with a touch of political intrigue..last 4 episode just a hot mess of character changing behaviour and political mess. Forgot it was supposed to be a rom-com.
I want an *actual* rom-com. Yeah we can deal with the underlying Evil Cousin that's fine. But the overall tone of the show shouldn't shift and I have no interest in these two falling a part for no reason. it would be MUCH more interesting if they went on the offensive to take down the bad guy instead of being driven a part by him.
I'm not convinced they get this right. Episode 7 preview wasn't helping with that.
Side note: If she starts to avoid him b/c chick says they are getting married I'll be pissed. A simple convo can fix that. No need to drag that into something.
Also, he's gonna have to start going on the offensive with the cousin.
I'm gonna be really annoyed if all he does is take L's up until the last episode or so. Episode 7 looks like a bunch of unnecessary angst on all fronts, we'll see how it goes.
Also, my guy is just surrounded by vultures. My God.
