I wonder if Ian let's Prime Minister Min win at chess? That little line of his was slick about if he did whatever he wanted the country would collapse. Ian didn't seem to take a offense - but it was slick none the less. It will be interesting to see what happens when Ian becomes more assertive.
I think they faked the premarital pregnancy to force the crown prince to marry the queen mother and Ian clearly…
I think the pre-marital pregnancy isn't fake and the brother told Ian (Queen mother not knowing) and technically I beleive that makes the young Majesty ineligible for the throne. Should be Ian's.
Backstory on the former King, Grand Prince's father is interesting. He had to see is first born wasn't cut out to be King, but instead of elevating his status to Crown Prince, clung stubbornly to tradition and forced Grand Prince to dim his shine.
I would understand if she had proof that Yi An was somehow plotting to stay on the throne but he's not even doing…
It's her pride that's eating her alive. She was groomed to be Queen so of course she married the Crown Prince, but little did she know he didn't have what it takes to be King. His brother did. And she fears her son is like his father.
The Queen Mother is gonna burn it all down (unintentionally) b/c she married the wrong brother and her son seems more like his father. The jealousy and her pride are eating her alive. SMH.
She was groomed to be a queen and queen dowager. Yet her husband and her son who are the ones she needs to keep…
I'm also wondering if they had a thing in the past (like you said she's too comfortable calling him by his first name). Like he was genuinely interested in her, and she flirted with him and gave him false hope, but she would never marry the "spare" - b/c she was groomed to be a Queen after all.

Came here to say all of this. She's going to destroy the Crown b/c she is so upset that she married the wrong brother. Grand Prince is everything a Royal should be. Groomed to be a queen, of course she was going to marry the Crown Prince, but little did she know he wasn't the "royal" one of the family. She's incensed that her son seems to be more like his father (the boys is only 8 she really needs to chill, but she's desperate) and not the Grand Prince who is everything she feels she deserved. She's so hateful, jealous, and angry she can't even see her actions will be what causes the Crown's downfall.
Grand Prince disrupting the wedding?
Is Baby Majesty not the former kings?
Are we going full K-Drama Makjang here???
