The preview had a scene that makes me laugh again:

Segye becoming annoyed that Seori's TV character Kim in Kingdom of Women becomes the big favorite of the TV King 😅.

At least another episode will be released tomorrow, I immediately want to continue watching. Then the long wait begins again...

Yeah, the King had a concubine called Gyeonbin (likely the mother of the crown prince) who Kang was accused to have tried to get killed and there is also Queen Onjeong who claimed Kang‘s painting for herself and likely supported the King so that Kang is portrayed badly in court annals.

That Mundo might have a (former?) mistress who might have a son with him might be likely. The Blind Date I rather see as the possible equivalent of the Queen who wants to side with him and afterwards maybe become a suitable rich match for Mundo.

Watch her be the Queen in the past life who claimed Kang‘s last portrait as her own and who likely worked with the King to get rid of Kang 💀

I love how both FL and ML seem real regarding expressions. It never seems scripted or shallow.

He is awful is both lives (in the present life even from childhood). The worst thing is that he is evil with good PR (often really frustrating to watch). Often I want to throw something against the TV so the actor really succeeds in that aspect. I fear that he will try to sabotage Segye and Seori really hard later on.

That's what I meant the rest is actually sorta matching with the accusations against Jang Hee Bin (working with a shamaness, attempting to kill the Queen, a comet being a bad sign etc.). Adultery is the only one not matching which is why it sticked out to me.

One of the accusations against Kang Dan-shim (most are based on the accusations against Jang Hee Bin) was also ‚adultery‘ so after hurting his brother with making Dan-shim a high-ranking concubine the King might have used the unresolved feelings between the two against Dan-shim as one of the many accusations against her.

Seori becoming obsessed with binge watching and the revenge drama fight scene were hilarious.

I also loved that she got Segye’s grandpa to buy her food as well.

I love how she is a bit of a handful but he wants her to succeed already (his smile when the choice regarding the contract was made).

The scene with him switching radio channels since they kept playing love songs and him imagining a commercial with her made me laugh so hard.

I also loved the scene of her playing the Joseon drama TV scene in the supermarket.

Regarding the past story I think it becomes obvious that the King just wanted her out of spite to hurt his brother and then discarded her.

One new episode on Friday and another one on Saturday. The wait is very hard for me I can't wait😅😭.

The Treacherous is an explicit portrayal of the infamous deposed King Yeonsan (the 10th King of Joseon). It basically shows what his court was like and people scheming behind the scenes for influence. It‘s in a similar vein to the movie Caligula regarding showing a rotten tyrant ruler and explicit sexual scenes.

No ties to Concerto. Oguri Shun plays the actual historical Oda Nobunaga role in Toyotomi Kyodai this time (the basis for how they write him on the show is mostly from Shincho Koki contemporary historical chronicles about Oda Nobunaga).

Yeah I remember a comment early on that his ex seemed like a rich sasaeng which basically is what actually happened.

The silhouette of Takenaka Hanbei matches one of Suda Masaki's new pictures he is definitely in the show.

I think the agressive band member is a red herring with being jealous of Raik's solo career.

The youngest and quiet band member I think might have witnessed something about the true culprit.

Regarding CEO and manager as suspects I think the CEO is less likely since he is too obvious.

The father of the prosecuter might be important in the backstory of the father of the FML.

I was content with the ending since he at least had his memories and in the bonus scene is implied to still have to adapt to the present which sounds fun to imagine.

Next to the two mains I also liked seeing that reincarnations/descendants of the other cooks are also present.

I somehow also thought that the two villains were quiet entertaining.

Since in reality he died a few months after being forced into exile maybe he slips out of exile and ends up in the future or is killed but his soul lives on into someone from the future (restaurant owner where she ends up working or something similar).

I laughed when she imagined his face while watching the moon XD.

Also squealed when he really enjoyed the Schnitzel. It‘s my absolute favorite meal 💖.

I also thought that Misa showed compassion for way too long (there was even a brief moment in the Ferris Wheel of her still considering to comfort Reina) and much preferred Jiwon not caring about her two biggest problems pretty much right from the get go.
