Sorta but it's not the main focus. They don't show as much as you would expect of the characters. So like there's some development but it's very minimal.

I wish they focused half on the characters and half or 1/4 on the show. It feels like it was in part funded by the Culture Ministry based on some of the BTS/Special videos of the show.

The imagination has a filter of like a translucent smoky cloud on the corners of the screen. That's how you can tell it's daydream/imagination vs reality.

I'm sad and happy for Santa. I noticed a lot of the times that he was not really happy there. Like he was forcing his smiles a few times, which is rare for him to do that. Typically he has this shining super happy face and smile but this show seemed like it stressed him out.

Our BL couple survived! LOL The kids are so talented for being so young! Their line delivery is amazing!

Am I the only one that doesn't see the romance between ML and FL? I see their chemistry as two people that have this friendship bond and not a romance line. Maybe I've been too focused on them finding the killer(s) and saving/knowing the real deal of their families.

Do you think they will film a season 2? I feel like they left a lot open for it.

I would forgive and forget. There's no point in being besties with someone that tried to ruin your life more than once. Her friend needed psychiatric help and her ex-bf too. LOL

Gu Shi Yong is going to get some gastric issues or high blood pressure, he's always screaming. It's so funny when he's all "barking" and Yu Zai Zao is all cute like a cat just talking normally.

Thanks! The subs on episode 11 and 12 are covered up and not showing. I tried viewing on Opera, Chrome, and Firefox. Thanks!

This should be called Sweet and Bitter LOL I can't with NanFei and ChenFang. ChenFang's storyline didn't even feel tied to the main story. They should have ended his side story and NanFei should have moved on completely. She initially waited 4 years and now it's been what another year or two? I guess it's not 10 years or more like with Phu and Nan in The Promise but still. Why can't we have a strong NanFei that just moved on with her life after a year. She's so intelligent but seems immature with her love life. I really wanted NanFei to just love herself and live her life. Her soulmate is JiaYi and I wish they had just brought a third love interest that shook things up and actually worked or just let NanFei choose herself and realize that you don't always need a lover and that you have love from her besties. End rant LOL

Same. You would think MBC would add them to their youtube channel. I only see the cut versions.

Does anyone know if they show the full performances on youtube? Because I just watched this on Kocowa (no eng subs yet) and It only showed cut edits of some performances. Like they were all cut down to fit a 1 hour 48 min show. Episode one was not all the performances. I'm assuming next week we get the rest.

I fell in love with CXX at the beginning of Goodbye My Princess then I was angry with him and hoped the Princess ended up with her Shifu even though he was older...But then I realized so many misunderstandings and all the royal intrigue

You can also watch all the episodes on all of youku's youtube channels.

I love mess and I'll continue to keep watching this convoluted mess but...
I'm kind of hating the FL and her family. LOL
Her family because it seems like they just sacrificed their daughter for money and don't really seem to care for her. Sure they act like they care at times but then are like "eh...ok...let her be...just for a bit longer".
The FL is a total pushover and not as smart as she was made out to be with writing her cheater hubbie's presentation.
I don't get how the FL in-laws are so rich they can't afford to have more "servants". Can they not afford a private driver and like a private caretaker for the disabled brother-in-law?
The MIL calling FL poor as if Ae Ra isn't poor as well? Like what rich person from a rich family would work as an Exec Assistant? Wouldn't she be a Director etc.?
