Amazing
This show is absolutely devastating but so so well done. The FL is coerced into a relationship with the sickly and current emperor. Her family's lives are threatened while she is waiting for her beloved who also is the current emperors brother. The Queen mother orchestrated the marriage because the ML had too much military power and she knew if she held the FL ""hostage"" he would always protect the capital and current emperor, his brother. However, jealous is a terrible thing and the emperor kills the ML. A situation the ML knew was coming but came back to the capital anyway because his beloved is there. It brings up the question: who protects our loved ones while we go out and make the ultimate sacrifice? Who is tucking the police officers child into bed while he patrols the streets to ensure our safety?
