Zhou Yi Ran is why I came to watch this but to me he looks so anorexic as compared to previous dramas. Is it age progression (lost baby fat), makeup, or star diet? Maybe it’s my fault for rewatching WIFTY first and last episode after this started? Maybe because I’m old and usually like manly men? Whatever it is took me out of the last scene ep12. Along with “can’t they just talk?” And she’s definitely a shoot first ask questions later kind of person! Flies off the handle when she isn’t aware of all the facts! Impulsive and impatient. Ohhh dramaland loves its misunderstandings 🤣😭
we would be morons to assume she has no authority, my guess is at some point in the climax she'll play a vital…
I mean stepmom authority. Madame of the house authority. She acts so servile. As for shares in the company? Yeah maybe, probably that all important 1% vote that counts in other dramas.
Don’t remember seeing it addressed in the drama or mentioned in the novel. In the novel he had a wrist mala(Buddhist…
At some point Fu Hai Lian gifted him him the wrist mala which turned out to be made with slow acting poison. But he had given them to his mother who later died. But in the original timeline that she remembers he wore them and steadily got weaker which lead to his death 5 years after they married.
A question to those who have seen the show or maybe read the novel - not putting it under Spoiler because it’s…
Don’t remember seeing it addressed in the drama or mentioned in the novel. In the novel he had a wrist mala(Buddhist prayer beads) that he fidgeted with like the rings. The beads also became a big plot point.
I’ve been more into cdramas lately and the kdrama schedules mess me up now but my fault for not waiting to binge…
A lot of people dissed him in A Hundred Memories but I felt it was the characteristics of the character he portrayed not his acting that was at fault. And I liked his character in When the Stars Gossip.
I tried the new c drama and dropped it we're all stuck
I really liked Are You the One (9/10) but didn’t feel hooked like this and moved on quickly. I’m watching Ashes to Crown (ep10 of 24) but don’t have that “gotta watch as soon as available” feeling sadly. Maybe it’ll pick up.

🤣 I’ll check out some kdramas if the actors and premise intrigues me. This one definitely caught my attention since the genre is a top fav of mine as is the FL and I’ve liked the ML’s acting for a while too. This was a superb pairing.
Please bare with me! Just trying to get my thoughts and theory out there. Sorry for the long read! This theory…
Good comments overall. But he’s the Grand Prince not the Crown Prince. I don’t know if they told us the specifics like exactly how the king became the king when apparently the grand Prince could’ve should’ve been that’s why the king does nasty things to him scared he’ll be overthrown. Google:A crown prince is the official heir apparent designated to succeed a reigning monarch. A grand prince is a title of nobility historically ranking either just below a king or, in certain historical empires (like the Joseon Dynasty in Korea or the Russian Empire), a royal prince of higher prestige than standard princes.

Possibly but too tame for a drama unless it somehow serves the plot.
