Agreed.

This is why I poasted the question. I watched the first four minutes - and gave up. I found the FL very childish. Of course, she could improve - but I doubt it. Don't take offence, but I am far too old to wasting time on something that my teenage grandchildren are more likely to enjoy.

Dailymotion has this up to sep 8. Is nobody watching this?

OK, thanks.

THANKFULLY? (So) SOMEHOW (I made it)? Are you contradicting yourself, or what? Why are you thankful for being able to watch someting - throughout - which you cleaerly did not want to watch? If you could take the time to write all of this, could you not have taken the much shorter time to mark it as a spoiler for those who have not seen all of the episodes?

I agree with you about one thing, though. Just why did nobody notice her comings and goings? Same too with the maid going back and forth to the 3rd prince's palace - after they had (or so they thought) killed her.

I have asked people to use spoilers and the offending OP (or even others) have had a go at me. Not that I care (in and of itself) about seeing spoilers - I quite like them) . The whole point is they don't realise - or just don't care - that you and I should have the right to choose not to see them. After all, this is why MDL gives us an option to hide them.

Given your comment, I assume that you have seen the ending. I don't know if you have read the novel, but the princess's brother died (apparently) so the ending of the drama must be very different.

Thank you. I hope that you found what you wanted.

Unfortunately, we can't help who we fall in love with. That's why I said that she was not being silly. Having a relationship with someone who repeatedly trys to kill you - now THAT is silly. (I would never have a relationship with a man whom I did not respect no matter how much I loved him.

Thank you. It was obviously extra footage that didn't make the cut.

Watch it on Dailymotion.

During the end credits you can see the ML doing the (ubiquitous) sword dance whilst the FL bangs the drums. Did that actually happen in one of the episodes? If so, I must have missed it. Anyone know which episode it was? Thank you.

Yes, I understand what you are saying. But, is he really the emperor's enemy? How many dramas have we seen where it looks that way but it was a set up job by another royal, a noble, or an official and the emperor did not know about it? Of course, if the emperor is the real enemy, that makes things different. Either way, I want to see many revenge scenes.

I never upvote or downvote dramas. I never even look at the ratings. I just watch them, pause them, drop them - or even rewatch them.

I hope so - then we'll get some good revenge scenes. What's the betting that the Meng family was behind it?

Hmmm...

...the M/L is the 'missing / presumed dead' cousin of the fourth prince ? Also, given the emperor's trust in him, does that mean that he (the emperor) knows...or that he doesn't know?

Does anybody else think that...

Firstly, this is not sado-masochistic behaviour - although it might seem that way to you. (I won't bore you with the physical and psychological differences.) Secondly, she is not falling for him at this stage and she is definitely not silly. See Da-mimi's comment regarding this above.
By episode 10 the characters - and the viewers - start to see many things differently. Who knows? By that stage, you might, too.

As for looking younger - I thought that, too, at times. Make up? Film manipulation? Face job? Imagination? Hmm...

Yes. You are so right. I confess, I didn't read it properly and thought that you were referring to the ML. I have just deleted - and rewritten - my reply to you.
