I have to disagree. The chemistry between the leads is sparkling and amazing!

From what I have gathered from this forum there are other ratings that matter more. But on MDL there are international audiences watching as well and I think they do rate on MDL. But I am not the expert on this

They all did - you should read the translation of Chen Feiyu’s and Dilraba’s farewell too. No wonder the portrayals were on point and really solid

How are we ever going to understand what is going on if their dynamics are like this?

Just started first episode- I don’t know how the hell these 2 can get anything accomplished like this. It does seem to be a complex case though

Totally agree with you! Well said!

The ratings for this drama is very high everywhere except here. And you are right there is one particular fandom putting this show down and they are disgustingly relentless. It’s just awful

Yes that is what I think. He is going to become stronger and face all the restrictions the queen mother has put on him while she will be able to face her family issues better.

Yeah me too!

I am here to rewatch after watching Chen Feiyu’s excellent acting in Love Beyond the Grave . Still a great drama to watch!

That is exactly what I am worried about.

In some ways she and the Prince are similar - both had a very harsh upbringing without any love or nurturing - having to fight for everything they wanted but they dealt with it differently. She could openly fight for what she wanted while the royal household was way more complicated. And many times he had to repress himself and follow the rules. These next few episodes are going to be interesting.

Yep they never have neither historically nor during present times😂

Yes looks like that was the case

I agree. I also read their posts- it was very clear that they understood their characters in depth and knew exactly what they had to deliver on screen. That is why all the performances were so strong!

Yeah obviously I-An was way smarter than his brother. Even now that is why the queen mother feels threatened. And to top it she is guilty of a lot of things

So far the ML has been very sincere . I think he fell for her a long time ago . But she is a little crazy and unpredictable even though very strong and a fighter. This whole contact thing - hope they shelve that idea. Because the queen wants a train wreck. I hope they don’t hand it to her on a platter. The saving grace is that they are both protective of each other .

I am really loving the FL’s character. She has been a fighter throughout her life. IU is playing this role so well!! Loving this drama at ep 6.

Miscast??? She is playing her role beautifully and convincingly.

I also hope that is not the case. But who knows . Let’s see
