If there was ever a shot that every actor was on the very best behavior as to not have to do a second take it would be those collective scenes.

It's the backyard/side-yard of the building, not the front entrance. You can see the doors behind him that he had gone through when Dou Zhao walks in.

Also to add on context that we are missing because it wasn't adapted for the show...at least not yet so super possible spoiler below do not read on if you don't even want the potential to be spoiled.


So this info comes from a novel reader(aka I am not the original source) Song Han is actually the son of Song Yi Chun's mistress. He was swapped out after the birth of a daughter from Song Mo's mother.
The little sister apparently goes through the absolute most...& is killed in the first timeline. Song Mo doesn't know about her, I don't even think his own mother knew about her.

Got an Imperial decree. That was why members of the royal family rocked up during the wedding with well wishes from the Emperor.
The marriage was important as to not consolidate power within the royal court. She is the legitimate eldest daughter of a family with no male heirs in the two branches. Her marriage could tip the scales if she were to marry a prince, because of who her father and uncle are within the court. So the Emperor was keeping a close eye on who her father chose as a son-in-law.
The person bts doesn't have an issue with their marriage as it kills two birds with one stone...though I'm unsure if the person in the shadows was fully aware of her massive wealth when they didn't interfere. Song Mo is more likely to loose focus if he is distracted by his wife that he very clearly loves. So they can use her as a way to move him where they want him just by threatening her.

please don't mention sites that have the possibility to go bye bye if found by the higher ups. can you at least edit it so it's just k*h or 💋kh this is how we lost DC(which has a new home btw)

Yeah the "Christians" in USA also tried to undo left-handedness thinking it had to do with the devil. All I've noticed about people who are left handed are more artistically inclined in one way or another.

Reading the snippets of those scenes she's hesitating because it's painful and a painful memory, but also because he is "young" compared to her. She loves him but physical intimacy after an almost deadly miscarriage would make anyone pause.

This is about to get sex ed-y so if that's not your jimjam scroll on by.

Even though she's done this before in the past out of duty doesn't make her an expert either. She didn't get to grow up with examples and people to talk to about this with. Hell even in the snippets I read I was screaming at them like "OMG foreplay is NESSASRY for most women...do not just DIVE IN...OMG...NOOOooooo".
And in her first marriage she was used as a tool for breeding not for pleasure so she wouldn't really know that she can ask her husband to get her ready.
So she's just in pain because of all the friction with no lubrication until she finally gets out of her own head for a second. I don't know who wrote the novel, but the romance in the bedroom was....um...traumatic and NOT what it is supposed to feel like. Also the writer made me feel like she didn't really want him at times but let him have his way....people seemed to like it, but I fear they do not have access to high quality smut/1st hand experiences to go off of. In the novel I believe he is also like 16 though so little dude is just randy for his wife.

Thank you so much. I figured that must have been the case.

Does anyone know the reason she doesn't write with her dominate hand? I know only Ji Yong and Song Mo picked up that she doesn't use her dominate hand to write sometimes, but I can't remember if there was an in show explanation or it's more of a cultural thing that is just "known".

Not really the same...they have similar plot devices, but not really the same wavelength imo Similar length though so I'll go with that. This is more Story of Kunning Palace vibes, story wise as the lead isn't a trained assassin willing to use any means to hide, but slowly moves the ML away from nuclear revenge as they learn to trust each other. Also FL being afraid of ML because of stories she heard in previous life.

Okay, looking at my notes for Kill Me Love Me....first kiss episode one as a ruse.(hot, but more or less used to keep people watching & show you FL is willing to do just about anything to reach her goal.) Next kiss happens in 18...this is almost exact length of time for Blossom as Blossom is 2 episodes longer and first kiss happens in episode 20. So about 55% way through the show. Personally seems right on track. As they too had a bit of sniffing around of one another before deciding not to kill each other.

If you can't tell I am a nerd when it comes to media so the notes are a literal thing in a notebook handwritten not a metaphorical "check my notes", but a color coded key so I can remember when kisses, break ups and death happens in a show.

Did you see his plea to not hate him and that it's just a role? He's like WTY is a POS and you can hate him all you want but please don't hate me. I promise I'm a good person.

Ep 10 he has a strong suspension & tries to confirm, but she evades his questions.
Ep13 when tending to him, she uses make-up to hide the mark knowing he would try to look. Afterward as he's leaving to "get his house in order" he notices the powder on his fingers a knows that she is lying. He doesn't know why she's lying, but now the kid gloves are off and it gives him hope, and something to keep him from going too far when "getting his house in order".

It connects them in a physical way. It is also why he can remember glimpses of his past life with her. He was younger and didn't touch the book, so it really was like a dream for him that he quickly dismissed. So seeing her gives him a bit of deja vu and like he is supposed to know her, but can't quire place her or his feelings for her.
It's connecting them together until they can let the past go and move forward in a new direction...together.

welcome welcome

She has trauma from her past life with regards to marital duties. If your only experience was WTY and a miscarriage that almost killed you, I think you would also be nervous and reticent about things that lead to babies.

I'm going to dm you.

Yeah it's that "Oh, so this is what that feels like." moments for him as he had never even thought about people in a romantic or loving sense. His walls were built high and strong, but Dou Zhao is a nine layered weed that can grow in the harshest of climates.

Um...I say this with kindness, are we watching the same show? This isn't really a very slow on the slow burn scale & I watch a LOT of slow burns. It's an average slow burn with payoff a little past the midway point.
It's a period costume drama. Going back over my notes for the year, the romance is right on track if not ahead of some dramas with similar lengths and/or plot type.
EDIT: can't get a read on what you actually enjoy watching based on your watched list as it isn't active so I can't give examples that I know you would know/understand.

I've only seen 4 of his dramas. The one thing I can say with 100% certainty is that the boy knows how to kiss for the camera. The Best Thing should be airing soon and from the clips and BTS i've seen for that production I have high hopes of his improvement over time.
As he only just really started in the industry a few years ago...switching from electrical engineering to lead actor...imma give the man some grace.
I always give actors about a five year grace period from the start of their adult career as an actor, less so if they are classically trained, but for those street casted kids, I let the pot simmer before writing them completely off.

PS...Saw your plan to watch update...Brewing Love is binge-able, but have those tissues prepped for episode 8. This drama falls under what I call a "healing drama". So be prepared to be in your feels for the majority of the show. But for the most part is adorable and worth it.
