Mine too!! I'll re-watch for sure!!!

I love the OST, I still haven't read the lyrics in fear they'll spoil something dgsugdsugd I don't want to suffer beforehand.

There are 3 guys who are kind of interested in FL, but none of them are pursuing her right now. She's also focusing on other things, she's not interested in romance.

thank you 🥰

I love that theory, thank you! I absolutely love when writers make their characters go through a dream state of mind to reflect on their deepest desires.

Uk is gorgeous and has a really charming personality. Knowing he would be her husband only encouraged her infatuation.

The make up reflects the character's personalities. Yul is not into fashion, but Danggu clearly is. The CP is royalty and he enjoys his position. Even old Heo Yeom likes a little make up. So I think they're trying to distiguish characters based on their personality.

oh yeah, the boy worked hard on those muscles, let's not waste his hard work dear director!!

Uk is in love. Naksu is not at the same page, but he's definitely there. The guy begged to keep his sexual desire, and he loves to tease Naksu, he is not in denial anymore.

You guys are not wrong. But I'm seeing the whole picture. All the interactions point to what I'm saying. It doesn't matter if they don't feel or act that way now. Analyzing Uk's character alone, that's the conclusion I made. He's not in this shit for pride or power, he's in for love (in all aspects), to have a clear conscience, and to live happily ever after.
Naksu is an assassin, so it's only natural she's not interested in romance rn. She's definitely not conscious of her feelings yet, but she knows her bond with Uk is not just a coincidence, she used the word "destined" to describe it. Even her assassin self would spare Uk from being killed. Now that the bond is getting thicker... she used to be alone all the time, that kind of bond matters.
I don't think we should be concerned with their romance. We all know it will happen eventually, and I don't think the sisters are depicting it in a bad way. They're building it beautifully.

hopefully it will get so intese they'll kiss each other. but that's not common in kdrama hahaha

she's not cold though. she's just barely keeping some boundaries. we forget this girl is an assassin disuhdusd she could've done so much worse.

If every episode had a big BIG development the show would look cheap like a morning drama. There's only so much you can show without exhausting watchers.

yes! we have another scene of wet haired jaewook next week, I bet he knew this was going to increase the hype dhiushdiuhs

The guy said he can't marry because he has someone he likes. He could marry and still help her achieve her goals if he wanted. But SHE doesn't want to stay as his maid if he marries choyeon. Do the writers need to spell it out? Just because they're not pursuing each other doesn't mean they don't have romantic feelings deep inside. What's more romantic than putting their lives at risk to save each other. Do they have to kiss to things turn into romance?

I found my theory omg it took me forever

Thank you! You're absolutely right.

we'll have to wait and see. for now, I like that Yul is not there just because of the FL. He's there for the ML as well. He's also smart, so I don't think he'll sulk too much. Idk, I might be wrong. But their past is not that tragic. I don't think things will get much worse between them.

When I say his motivation is love, I'm not talking only about his feelings for Mudeok. He didn't want to be a mage to prove to others that he is Jank Kang's son. He wanted to prove to his father. To show he's his son and earn his love/respect. Why did I assume this? Uk was ready to give up being a mage to live in the woods with the girl he likes. He's also the kind of person who can easily persuade anyone, which means he pays attention to everyone. People full of pride can't read the room. Of course, he has pride. He doesn't want to be a laughing stock. But that's not his primal motivation.
