I wonder how they got the licensing. Hopefully they can get all the others that are currently shelved.

If the character chart is correct, she will. I think the writer is just trying to add more drama before its done. It explains why the fake daughter arc is slow as molasses to fall completely apart and Ha Na is being kept the ever naive and used fool FL 😂🤦‍♀️

Was there a preview on IQIYI before? Because IQIYI has it listed as having 37 episodes and rumours are swirling that they may airdrop it.

@Shaoyaoville and I are both in the same thought of a fictionalized version of the Tang Dynasty (since women could hold office, have more freedoms etc) and Empress seems like a based on Wu Zetian. At least that's what I felt like watching. Glad to know there are other people with the same thoughts.

Can they just be a throuple? All three are hot hot hot! Just saying.. Although if we added Ten to it....then we have a foursome...

DC is gone, all the ones available are mirrors with some updating and some not. May Kiss? Although they don't always have all the dramas coming out. Idk if it's people requesting or if they pull all the ones on the trending list/top stars. But if it's on Netflix, so many other places will have it accessible.

So we are supposed to believe that Zhang Zhen is a cis-man not trans man or a woman disguised as a man, right? Because when I first started watching and shady boots Jin Cai and Prime Minister both were looking at/side=eyeing ZZ like they were trying to clock him as a woman dressed up as man.

Sei's situationship still seems emotionally and psychological abusive...no line, no TV, etc thinks he's doing xyz because he wants to, was cut out from others...surprised he's even allowed to work, use email, talk to Hagiwara...

I wonder if she prefers to be the top or dominant or masculine one and prefers a soft man? Or she's the type with a cat temperament like she wants you when she wants you or remains friendly but indifferent but also don't touch me unless I want you to

I was expecting Mo to somehow free herself and self-sacrifice to right her wrongs but that's probably an ideal and clichéd plot.

Right? It felt just too real for 99% of it and I don't even know how to feel at the end. I feel like I was sucker punched with a durian.

Hilarious Family (2023) did a similar story to this but they had what seemed actual comedians and maybe writers/consultants.

It seems to follow some of the original source " Pride & Prejudice" bits they used for this but it's really giving micro drama tropes and leaning a bit too hard to where she becomes one-dimensional but maybe the next 31 episodes will give us development and growth.

How dare you!!! JK... There are handsome men! Emperor and ML lol Everyone else, IDK the makeup/wig styling did them dirty. Chen He Yi sometimes gives off Wang Xing Yue doppelganger in other projects. WinWin should maybe stick to modern dramas or they need a better stylist. Liang Yong Qi played a villain in The Double but we call him TEMU/Pinduoduo Zhu Yi Long... My opinion could/probably be wrong LOL

I was as shocked as Eun Chong. He was also giving disgusted side eye to Rat Princess!

It feels like he gives mixed messages. Like he should be clearer with boundaries. Maybe live separately, find a place with two rooms instead of sharing one. The more he shows caring, it can be misconstrued by someone that is clearly dealing with trauma.

Caring? IDK it feels like those obsessive be with me but don't be with me types. He sends mixed messages and it's sorta emotional manipulation.

It feels abit controlling and gaslighty. Like I will be with you, you are mine, and yet I will keep you at arms length but also don't have desires for me but also care about me. IDK it's a bit toxic. Like Sei has some trauma to work over and the roommate/friend is giving those type of guys that look for people in trauma to sorta use to their benefit and in this case, someone to mold/control/have company/have someone desiring them to get that sense of validation but also like don't sexualize me LOL

Can they have their own drama like single mom with a fun uncle and adorable baby boy being silly and reaching a dream?

Right? In all his interactions with HaNa, why would he assume she's the type to not be tricked. Does he even know his evil sister in law? Its like he's smart but dumb with things. His plan isn't as meticulous. Like no background checks, have people following etc just when it serves the plot by the writer...
