JulesL

Ah, that's sad. For now, he's not as crazy clingy as the SMLs in other shows, but it sounds like he will go down that path too.

To be honest, I am kind of torn - I would have been fine if this was a family drama and they were true siblings supporting each other. However, their chemistry is too good not to be used for romance ;D

Thanks! I will read the comments. I hope the palace intrigue phase is done well. Sometimes that can make or break the show,

I remember watching a short clip where the woman who forced the FL said that she was the LJX's fiancée. I wonder if it is out of jealousy that she wanted to kill the FL.

Oh really, we are already halfway through the drama. I guess Lin Mao and Yu Xiu's wedding will be coming up soon. I wonder how much more obsessive will he be. He's already overstepping boundaries and disregarding social norms to get closer to her.

I like it that we got to see both POVs. Their characters and actions were a nice counterbalance to each other.

I have seen so many romantic dramas from different countries about young love and crushes, and most of them are similar in terms of the FLs going all out and trying to get the MLs.
Their actions are actually quite relatable in the sense that they make me cringe because they remind me of how I was when I was younger, trying to get the attention of my crushes. That's why, even though the FLs do embarrassing things, I still enjoy watching them.
That said, I prefer FLs who are more dignified in showing their interest in the MLs. It's usually the MLs who are cool, reserved, and restrained. They are also interested and trying to get closer to the FLs, but they are much less over the top.
I would love it if we got shows that bend the stereotypes, have the FLs be the cool ones, and have the MLs go all out to get the FLs to fall in love with them.

This show is so good to watch after a more intense show like "Kill Me, Love Me." It also has a revenge plot line, but it is lighter and focuses more on the Luo family drama.
I don't mind the very slow romantic build-up because the interactions between the leads were so entertaining to watch.

Because I like the actor Ci Sha, I am intrigued by LJX but I wish he wasn't so aggressive towards the FL. So far we got a few flashbacks which explained why she is terrified of him but I want to know more about how he was involved in trying to kill her. There's no way he knew that she was his Mei Mei.

More how the FL falls for the ML first and chases after him. She does some embarrassing things. Not too bad, just makes me cringe

Oh I can totally see that - someone as gorgeous as that should be admired by all!

Do Hyeon is so calming for Jeong Suk. There’s no romance tag but I wouldn’t mind if there hint of them being a couple in the end

Yes I enjoyed those scenes - ep 3 was packed with emotions

Oh yes, he is 😍

I wonder if that is why the show put him together with Juri’s son. That way he will gain more understanding of single mothers

I know, I commented earlier that I don't really want to see more of them but I am curious to know what the Emperor would do if she falls in love with someone else and wants her freedom.

Yeah, she was pretty prominent in Miss Night and Day so hopefully her talents continue to be discovered and we will see her often.

Exactly and the FL even told the that cheating bitch that she was not going to tell the best friend's husband ! I hope he finds out though - they don't deserve to get away with it!

Ah ok, I guess it won't be so easy to get rid of him, especially in a small town like that.
LOL, I guess we are all happy he cheated - short-term pain for the FL but long-term improvement!

The character’s redeeming herself and yes, I agree that the actress is great with her expressions!
