Ngl, it does have a bit of a trashy wattpad fic feel to it, but it is entertaining to a degree (if they start…
yeah, I agree. I'd love to see them in something a bit more serious, a bit less trashy. This is fun though. Also, your review totally made me watch My Stubborn, which I binged in a day flat. So thank you for your service 😂
I couldn't agree more with this, the NC scene was beautifully made and had me totally shocked. They both did an…
yes, they're 100% covered the whole time. they use a garment that covers their genitals and is padded so it acts like a barrier to reduce contact. You can find intimacy coordinators on tiktok who show you.
Wait a second... i might get now why it is not working. So imagine Tae is worried sick for several hours, calling…
Chaeha coming to Taeseon's house is a really big deal in the novel. It completely changes the dynamic of their relationship because it's the first time they ever get physical, starting with their first kiss. It also marks the beginning of their cnc relationship, which is a major plot point in the novel. That's why Taeseon asks him if he's sure, and why Chaeha lingers on the doorstep. Going into the house means agreeing to a dom/sub relationship, which he doesn't really want but that's all Taeseon is willing to offer so he takes it.
Unfortunately, the show changed the timeline of their relationship so this scene no longer makes sense as is. They've already kissed and had sex, so the hesitation feels unnecessary, even if it's so beautifully shot.
I guess she’s recalibrating. all the reasons she didn’t choose the others are still there.
That's how I interpreted the bedroom scene. He's letting her know that he's not someone who'll let her walk away when she wants. She's trying to reestablish her ground and show that she's not going to be intimidated by his power. They're still choosing each other, they just need to renegotiate the terms. 😄
You can see she really didnt want to break off the marriage; she is just angry that she was fully decieved by…
yeah, exactly. she's just taking time to adjust to this new information but her mind (her heart?) is already set, whether she's ready to admit it or not...
I find Xihe so intriguing. She's ruthless, decisive, and a great judge of character. And yet, the only step she's taken so far towards cancelling the engagement is asking CP for his consent, knowing that he'll neverrrr give it.
She could go to the Emperor today and get him to break the engagement, she could go to another prince and get him to agree to marry her on the spot. But she's just 'trying' to convince CP, suggesting that she doesn't really want to break it and she knows she'll come around. He's just in the dog house temporarily.
all the comments saying FL is indifferent/doesn't care makes me think people don't understand subtext because she cares a lot, even if she won't allow herself to admit it...
After what Chaeha did for Taeseon in ep 5, there may be a shift from them being on equal footing (disregarding…
Ooh, I like how you think. I think this is true because we see in the preview of ep7 Taeseon being openly jealous, which is something he would have never done before. He would have hidden his feelings and just been a dick about it lol.
Every time the end credits roll, I realize I've been holding my breath for the last 40 minutes. The show has succeeded at immersing the audience so deeply in the story that I have a hard time snapping out of it, just like our actors.
I really thought this would be miles above anything I've ever watched, but I ended up dropping it on episode 26…
aww that sounds nice at least. Don't think I'll finish though.
I don't believe in struggling through a show if I'm no longer enjoying it. It just makes me angry and bitter lol, because I'm so irritated at the time I'm wasting. 😂
Best of luck! Hope you enjoy the rest of your journey.
I was mostly invested in Xiuyao clearing his brother's name and Ye Li's illness. With that gone, I don't really care about anything else. Mo Jingli wasn't developed enough as a character for me to care about his rebellion, and I don't care enough about the Emperor to be invested in Dachu's fight for its borders.
This drama had the potential to become a compelling historical revenge drama, but it loses momentum under the…
I really thought this would be miles above anything I've ever watched, but I ended up dropping it on episode 26 because it doesn't really feel like anything is happening. It's just 'set Li Zhen up, everyone doubts her, she proves them wrong, everyone sees that she's a great person.' And then that's repeated like 2 episodes later. The character development is an entire joke in this show.
