First of all, let me give two snaps to Mama Empress. She is not even playing about the whole crown princess selection. She rolled up in with the emperor and told HY, "Look, you all might be down with DZY, but it isn't happening." Snatched the hairpin from her hair. Yes, she did. And just rolled out. I was cracking up and cheered Mama Empress on because I cannot stand the fake DZY. Every time I look at her, she reminds of the one of the ANTZ from the movie.
The fake DZY is just cringeworthy every time I see her. I can't stand her. Poor MQ so likes her, but she just wants to be the crown princess. You know HY is going to find out the deal. I mean come on, a scar the way RA was describing is not going to fade away so give the point to HY. Let's see how she covers that up when he asks her, and you know he will that is just his nature. She even got the age wrong she said 8 and RA said 7. But how much information did they tell her of the role she is playing. I do not think that she knows that RA is the real DZY. I think she again was given limited information because she was an orphan on the street that they could manipulate at the time. But now she is getting ballsy and wants to be her for real. I wouldn't be surprised if she does not eventually find out that RA is her. She is definitely dark side material to scheme with whomever to get her the crown princess role.
Then what was up with the whole crown princess selection. WTH was that. I mean was there any other real candidates that we could see but those three? This was a pretty poor selection because he is so fine that is all you had? Damn, I would be like why bother. Take RA and call it a day!
We have the young marquis who snuck back into town and got drunk and not only raped but killed the eldest daughter of the Zhong family, Zhong Jing. But wait, he wasn't done. He tried to burn down the crime scene. You know it got better, he then set fire to the entire residence and killed everyone inside. Say what? Now, he wants his dad to cover it up, who will be the scapegoat for this one. But if there a fire blazing, don't you think someone would have reported it by now. The young marquis has been nothing but a thorn in his dad's side.
Now, I really am so over with AN. Every time she opens her mouth up, she is talking about DZY's family. If they had therapy, she would still be in it. I get it that she is upset, depress and just mad but I think she needs to go back to the border at this point because this is just too emotional draining for her. What is she going to do when she finds out who has been her bodyguard all this time? Let alone, find out that RA is really DZY. Lord, she may have a breakdown. Now, that I can't wait to see what will happen.
Ok, my readers, can you please stop my anxiety and tell me when HY is going to find out about RA being DZY? And please tell me that he does not marry the fake one or MB's sister.
Perhaps the mysterious hitman guy? I guess that character ain't really important 😕
@Emma Rose @ Emma Rose It just seems like they really didn't clear things up:
1. Why did LJS quit his job? I mean, I thought those two would get together and be with the kids. He just comes over helps. I thought when she went into the room it was to meet him. But nothing....so, why then?
2. Did we see KDJ once he went to prison? Confession? We didn't even get to see a scene with him and his girls telling him goodbye or something along those lines. He killed her, was I guess with the daughter, but what else did he do? Where was LTH if he was his attorney to help him.
3. Ok, we saw JSB, do his best "Keith Sweat begging" to SJA but dang, was it really all of that? I mean, if she could forgive her brother numerous times and take care of him even though he screwed up, what he did was bad, and she did say she forgave him but that was too dramatic.
4. SJA's brother where did he disappear too? What happened to the people in the car the night of the accident? Dude took all of SJA's money, but she was bad ass, so she never tried to get it back? I mean, you took my hard earn money, sorry, I will chase you down.
5. LTH was just worthless and he did deserve not to have anything more to do with his wife. But it is funny how SJA hired her to be in her company.
6. JMH quit her job so what was she doing for employment. I am sorry but she was just too much of nothing. The whole scene of her going back to the apartment and seeing OYJ and saying she was sorry. And crying. I can't.
7. Who was the father of OYJ"s oldest daughter? Just some random guy she met. So, how did she end up with KDJ?
See there were too many unanswered questions for me. That is why I said I felt like something was missing. I think after how strong it was, it should have had a stronger ending.
ANNOYED!!! I cannot understand WHY they are letting XAN stay at the house. Excuse me but put her ass out. I can't stand her. I mean ZZX has said that she should move on. How is he helping her by not telling her to leave. After taking his fishing rods, that should have been the last straw really for me, ok, her bringing her bags to my place would have been that for me. Her whining self needs to go. Needlessly chasing after someone who has clearly stated in no uncertain terms I am not interested. She at this point is a stalker which they allowed into the home. So done with her.
Then the other crazy ass. HRY. What is it with these women don't get it with men? I am so confused. She is just too much. She hits the brakes, so the cake is jacked up. But my gurl was on point with the backup. And then she had her brother and her meet again just to cause drama. This is another psycho that needs professional help. Lame.
The mother of both these two loony-tunes just needs to be told to stop all of her conniving and sit down somewhere.
It was nice to see XTY stand up for her with her ex and say that he is in her corner. He needed to beat him up some more to really get his point home.
XTY's mother doesn't play. She is so serious until it's scary.
Does it worth watching last episode to see ending? I put it on hiatus about ep. 8 and I don't want to watch the…
Honestly, you should just do that. I think it was too drawn out and there were missing pieces, in my opinion. Again, it was decent but just go to the last two episodes and you will understand it all.
Yes! I'd have loved to see how he became what he became... And more of his relationship with Ro Um. All we knew…
@AngiBorahae definitely agree with you on all points. I feel it was a missed opportunity for us as the viewers to understand more of why he was the way he was. As well as what really was their relationship when she was locked up per se.
Did anyone catch in episodes, 4, 6 and 12 (so far) that the couple they show is from "The Killer is Also Romantic?' I am trying to figure out why they are in this. Does it have to do with the FL? Remember in TKIAR the FL was trained to be an assassin and she did not know who her family was.
Not too bad. I enjoyed the drama. I think we needed some more background on the President to give us a better understanding of his life. But all and all decent.
The fake did a very good job on the her role cause she make everyone hate her.
@Birdlady I don’t hate her, that is too strong of a word. I dislike her a lot because she now isn’t following the plan but will cause them more grief and problems. I’m looking for her to switch sides because she wants freedom.
I have to give it up to KNY. She is so on point and taking no prisoner. Love her attitude. But you see in the last episode her husband asking her to marry him again with a ring. Boy bye. Who has time for your nonsense. Next...
KDJ what an idiot. She changed her mind. But the question is, was that hit man the guy that worked for SJA? I was trying to catch the voice because the person went to him and let him hear only the part about killing him and not the rest.
Do we know who the father was of OYJ's oldest daughter? O
JMH, JMH, this woman is just too much. I cannot. First of all, why would you go at night down and dig out the USB. Wait until daylight and do what you have to do because you don't know where he went. Plus, you knew he was coming back, and the police could have grabbed his ass. She so needs to stop all of her detective work.
Those poor girls will no doubt be traumatized for the rest of their lives.
You know what, I couldn't stand SJA but you know what, in a crisis situation, I would definitely want her on my team. She just is like, let's handle this and get it done. I can't wait to see what happens with her and her husband. He does his begging to her. I mean, is there something else he did that he still hasn't said. I believe there is more coming from him.
Like everyone else, we just need, seriously, for an assassin to fulfill his duty and take out DC. She is on my last nerve. Ok, let's be clear, this girl is NOT, I repeat NOT clueless. She is playing everyone for being stupid and she is not. She is going to ally up with someone because she wants to stay. Over her, she can go now. We want to see RA and HY.
Now ladies, can we talk about some of this eye candy of fine men in here. Ok, here I go.
LMX - He is working the whole, thought-provoking and icy stare. Yeah, he is liking RA something fierce. Stare at me and I'll warm you up!
Mu Qing - He needs to just needs to run away with DC and call it a day. He is fine. If I had him watching over me for 10 years...whew, I wouldn't not mind being in the mountains.
Mo Bei - YES!!!, The general just needs to see what is beside her and just give in already. I'll take his lead any day!!!
I finished. Let me know what you think after you finish.
@JustRozelyn, here are my comments that I posted:
I have finally finished the last episodes. Thank goodness for express.
Now, let me give some shout outs!
1. Supreme Majesty!!! Yes, he was bottom line bad ass. When he basically looked at the sorcerers rolling up to the mountain after SY's trial, he was like "who the hell told you to come up here." Yes, got to see him work that staff. I have to say he was always doing something shady. I wasn't liking him at the beginning but then at the end seeing his moment with SY and they had their talk. He got me, he really did. But his smack down on the sorcerers was definitely on point!
2. ZY, ZY, gurl you know I was riding you hard about your performance and I said the jury was out, but I have to give it up to you. You were a crying something in every one of the episodes from 33-40. I don't know how you did it. But my hat is off to you! Then can we say, you held your own with my man SY! Gurl you were holding it down! I cannot say that you were not bad ass too in that fight scene. Not hating on you at all.
3. Yuan, you were working, I mean working the whole dark side of evil!! You did it well and you wore it well too.
4. BXL and QG loved that they finally got together.
To my man who held down this WHOLE drama, you all know he did SY aka Mr. Poppins! I got to see the umbrella again!!! Let me tell you, let me tell you, let me tell you, when he was wearing all black, looking all fine and the hair was flowing, and he was fighting I was like damn...get it SY!!! This man brought his A game as usual to this last scene. He was not playing, and he did the damn thing. Yes SY!! Loving on you all day!
Final thoughts, I would highly recommend and say this is definitely rewatchable. It is enjoyable and now I have to go back and watch Mirror: A Tale of Two Cities again.
I have to say, they did keep us waiting. Long promise in seeing this drama but I have to say it was a long wait that was so worth it.
