Daenerys

Wow, they must have enjoyed filming this drama, tasty lunch breaks.

It is called being human, not sure how you want him to react after the way his wife treated him its pretty heartbreaking. When his father is reversing stuff his grandfather did to help the country you want him to smile? With Yao Zijin, this last episode he really showed his love and maturity, within his misunderstanding he loves and respects Yao Zijin so much he was willing to help her to get married to his friend, the person he thought she loved. Most crown prince's don't do that, they are in a position of power and just take what they want. I really like his character he is a very supportive grandson, brother, son always helped his father out of problems and helped his mother. Level headed and calm. One of the best Crown Princes.

Oh no looks like the trailer video on the link has changed. So strange

She needs someone that allows her to be vulnerable, let all her grievances out and have a good cry like Zi Ping was able to do with FL. Totally understand her mother's reasons too. Shame she couldn't just be honest with her daughter, it would have been so different if she knew the real reason.

Hmm I wouldn't describe him that way.

This was upsetting to me too!

I am enjoying it!! If you need subs to watch I would suggest you watch on youtube with VPN location in Asia if you are not in Asia. You miss so much important stuff due to bad subs and it will be confusing too with bad subs.

Same, would have actually liked a bit more interactions. So nice to see that background info on how they met. Wonder if they cut some of the interactions out, when they had to cut episodes down to 40.

I actually feel a little bit sorry for Yue Hua. She was kind of dealt a bad card. So her mother who she so desperately wanted to be with refused to acknowledge her at the start. I don't think things were good with her step-mother too. Then Zi Ping tried to kill FL and tried to set FL up by trying to sow some seed of doubt early on about FL's identity to Yue Hua. YH tried to protect reported case to her Mother, which in a way would protect the Food Office if someone ever found out at least she would not be in shock. All of a sudden Yue Hua was perceived the bad guy. Not even being able to get close to FL coz Zi Ping was always there. I think she felt all alone and no one to turn to, she didn't feel liked yet she had done nothing wrong really at this point. Then she got some sort of comfort being used by SML, because at least someone wanted her in some weird way. They are both damaged people so they naturally gravitate to each other. So she was actually good and perceived bad before she was actually bad, then she turned bad.

Friday can't come quick enough!

It was LOL....

No, not strong all. SML does not even stand a chance and they do not have any nice interactions together at all.

If you are in Asia you can watch on YouTube, they have good subs. If you are outside Asia you can use VPN and choose a country in Asia, to watch on YouTube. I am not sure what episode they are up to now, they are realizing them slowly on there.

I think this is an exceptionally different drama with plot twists, enjoying it more than the Long Ballad. I think MDL has kind of huge fanbases for some actors and actress. Wu Jin Yan does not have a huge fanbase here. Some dramas here are rated high just because of who the actor /actress are not just on the story/plot.

I haven't been able to watch this yet, can't find it any where. Anyway I like this FL in her other dramas, She is great in Legend of Hao Lan, is in Royal Feast right now, so glad she now has a main lead role. I wonder if what you are seeing is the directing/script writing.. I would imagine smashing a cake in someones face is to do with the script not the acting.

the subs are still really bad on those sites

They are really make it hard for us to watch this drama. Watch on Kissh https://kisskh.me/Drama/Imperial-Cuisine---Royal-Feast?id=4534

Kisskh , subs are still bad.

Do you have a youtube link that works with eng subs without needing VPN, if you are not in Asia if so please please send me the link?
