So not saying she is his ardent fan is betrayal ? should he not be thrilled she is his fan? didnt she say sometime back she doesnt like discussing personal stuff? what is he angry about?
being his fan, and being his lawyer are 2 different things? she has every right to protect her personal interests - and he is duumb to fire her..
It seems both were broken apart or had to breakup under unsavory circumstances and both seemed to have deeply…
delusional ,she definitely is!
This is how am reading it.. when they were together , he maintained a public stand that they weren't together ! Possible she is acting up, since he wasnt owing up to it! (we dont know what actually went on then, and sequence of events - was she cheating before or during their relationship or cheated when she saw he wasnt owing up to their relationship and acting up for a reaction , which he obviously wasnt giving her - hence she burst out in the way she did - throwing all hurt in his direction , said things she shouldnt have said or wouldnt have said if she had sanity intact)
seeing the lack of positive relationship with her family , it looks like she is acting up with them as well. she seems like someone who has seen a lot of hurt in her childhood and main lead may have been only one who was kind/good to her.. and hence almost obsessive level attachment to him. .. in the past at young age she didnt had power to act in any way she can for the relationship , she probably thinks (or has more power!) she has better chances of protecting their love now. Unfortunately , he moved on
Is Hye Joo delusional? After saying all those nasty things to Ra Ik, she can actually claim they never broke up???
It seems both were broken apart or had to breakup under unsavory circumstances and both seemed to have deeply loved the other , and hadnt moved on. Technically, what she is saying is true. ML signed an unfair contract to protect her in the past., and continuing to protect her even now. He is not hoping to get together with her but he still cares about her well being. In her mind, they are still together. But he had moved on, which her brain hasnt accepted yet
"you pick your target from the start" .. it sounds so chilly when a supposed leading light of prosecution says that! someone is delibrately setting a target on ML's back and wants him in jail. truth be damned!
i suspect ex - girl is definitely tied to the case , her family is in al probability behind the case! t to separate them , or more like punish him for daring to look at their daughter and have a relationship!. am curious what happened in the past.... and means used to separate them
Ep6 .... I havent seen a mother as exploitive and as shameless as ML's in this series. She doesnt get the sacredness of her relationship with her son, she doesnt understand "love" , she probably sees a walking , talking money tree when she sees her son, that she can shake without any thought towards him..
No matter how fiercely the darkness prevails, light will always triumph in the end. - this quote sums up this drama
Finished watching Vendetta of An., finally This is one of the best dramas that has come out in 2025 year-end. I enjoyed watching every bit of it, craving for more episodes. I had so much to vent while watching, about humans acting worse than animals, and also wondered if living is so important that one would kill to live. . ML's side answered my question, they killed too , so that others lived , not for greed , not for power , but to bring peace to the realm. they killed only the garbage parading in human skin . .. they have mostly forgiven or protected innocents (even if they have done mistakes , unknowingly) . I loved and hated the deposed king. it took so much death and destruction for him to grow a pair! On the contrary though I started off being suspicious of his brother, i ended up admiring him in the end. He came out as being more compassionate , politically matured and more deserving of the throne , and i felt bad that he died in the end. Some of the moments felt so helpless, and i was worried ML's side wouldnt be able to succeed . and only a miracle would help them succeed - and that miracle is ML himself - the ending was so intense and he indeed strategised the win so brilliantly , and convinsingly!
I immensely enjoyed the series, no doubt about it! And I will follow the original author's works more closely. I think the author is immensely talented.
The drama captured the essence and presented it powerfully and convincingly. I loved the fast pace .my only grouse was, it needed more episodes to do justice to all that content (choppy editing didnt help) - in the later episodes i sometimes struggled with names /characters /context , when some references made by various character , more episodes would have given us more context , breathing space to catch up. the fast pacing though i loved was so fast that i found myself racing (albeight not as fast )playing catchup.... Otherwise good content , acting , direction ..... will revisit this series again..
I think, it is valid that he feels threatened. Tiemo is going to invade the land and kill the people. Mean while…
still one dont go around opening the gate for the enemy with ones own hands(which he literally did!!!) , unless you have a plan to defend it somehow , may be with deception. it was pathetic seeing him walking around like a zombie . if somehow he doesnt have a plan , he is not eligible to sit on that throne which ML and others save from tiemo. royal lineage or not. am impressed by his brother, he has great fighting skills, political maturity , compassion (more than a rulerneeds) , and discretion .... he would have made a better ruler, i wonder how younger one ended up on throne when the there is such a competent elder one ... (asking the xiaobing to protect the old shop keeper, asking xiaobing to not walk into fight/war when he has a family to protect - he could have ruthlessly used every one of them .. he didnt! what more you need - more ethical than his younger brother (deposed emperor)!!!
At Ep25 , i still feel , this should have been 50+ episode drama. it has so much meat and i feel so much chopping has been done to bring it down to 28 episodes
Ep25: either deposed emperor gone nuts or pretending to have gone nuts. he is following their orders to the T and helping bring down their defence and handing over chang'an on plate. his brother had a better chance of defending their kingdom. did he think the tiemos offer is better than his brothers chance to defend the kingdom? so disappointed in him
I started watching k drama many years ago(one of the 1st Asian dramas i watched) , have some real favorites dramas (whose episodes i rewatch sometimes!), but some where down the line i stopped enjoying them (the humor is something i found cringy and coundnt continue - even those dramas which ranked high- i couldnt watch!), Havent seen kdramas for a few years till "When the Phone rings" which i enjoyed immensely and then Bon Apetit - which i liked as well This series i watched it when it first released , but no idea why i dropped it after 1 ep. while rewatching i didnt particularly dislike it. infact am finding it good. Completed 2 Eps , hope this run continues
I was skeptical before starting this one, but it turned out to be surprising good ..still at ep3 ..but loving it.
If the series is any reflection on legal field and aspirants of korean politics, it is incredibly sad. I hope it is just exaggeration, and prosecutors and politicians are not that mean and cut throat , as to get someone in, to make it to that top
4 years and they didnt understand her. Not one backed her when ye rong accused her unfairly. Its only when feng…
They are jealous and evil. Yes not potrayed well in the show. Ye rong esp, nothing simple about her. She is a schemer. And can scheme even a dear friend for her benefit
i hate her college classmates. How they are so evil really. all of them lol
4 years and they didnt understand her. Not one backed her when ye rong accused her unfairly. Its only when feng confirms she picked thag phone they try to normalise and apologise. Even then i would keep away from all other than boss and feng.. rest all trash.. none worthy of a friendship
Yusen,I hope you become a surgeon again,I'm so sorry💔
One of my hopes os he would recover fully and goes back to his full time surgery. Someone that good should not have to loose a career that one is so good at, and has so much to contribute to tye world , due to a trash , that is FL's dads friends daughter
Super loving this show. One thing i have to point it out. Chinese stars need to take care of their fitness and health.. all look like bag of bones. Esp ML. He has a tired ness and fatigue etched into his eyes and being. He is my fav star , since finding yourself and Go Ahead. I would be sad if he loses any more weight in the anticipation his fans will love him more. I would rather he puts on more weight.same with FL and rest of cast.. also with other chinese stars. If the stars looked upon by younger generation are taking such unhealthy health trends , the future generations have to pay for this unhealthy trend. They would have a few generations condemed to bad health. I dont think any one us would love our fav stars less if they look a little more healthy. Its their acting chops that i would love to appreciate , not their unhealthy body stats or face card.
Ep12: All Zhuang had to tell FL is that he likes her, and he would have had a big chance. He had to blow it up with all that trash talk...🤦♀️... drama gives a lot of details that arent covered in book, esp confrontation between Zhuang and Ye rong after their friends wedding.. all these are good additions..gives a lot of clarity on whats going on ,on Zhuang/Rongs side.. its obvious ye rong is played a big gaMe in sabotizing her own childhood friend's happiness.
I like the trip to her grandparents house. It tells the story behind how she is so down to earth , caring and warm. Both her mother and grandparents are warm and caring , and down to earth which rubbed off on her..and she has none of the airs of the wealthy. She is raised to be a gem, is a gem
So not saying she is his ardent fan is betrayal ? should he not be thrilled she is his fan? didnt she say sometime back she doesnt like discussing personal stuff? what is he angry about?
