I'm still in episode one and while watching I was shocked about the quality of the drama, This doesn't look like a high budget drama and to be starred by Joseph zheng who usually starred at high budget drama, am I missing something? Or the drama quality just doesn't suit my taste and different to what quality or plot I watched these days? Or I'm just watching too much angst that's why the color grading is different since this is a comedy and light drama? Maybe I'm just used to the color grading quality of The first jasmine as I'm currently watching it too.

Anyways, I just realized that tan jia ru is also here but as a supporting role, one of the reason why I was so shocked because he's a lead actor in veil of shadows along with Joseph. But this drama is entertaining plus with the fact that Joseph and jia ru is in another drama again after both of them broke my hearts in their previous drama this feels like a comfort and I'm enjoying to watch this, though I may not like the production quality but the actors acting skills keeps me watch this. And while being so stressed watching TFJ current episode because of the angst, this is so refreshing to watch

if the divorce will really happen i will not continue to watch this drama. The Fl didn’t deserve everything, she made his household alive again, fix what’s broken and help him stand again, now he leave her for his stupid reason?! He knows that ye li is unstable yet chose to hurt her even more.

I already watched this 4 years ago but every year i still rewatched this drama. This was so entertaining to me and I like the dynamic between the leads. I usually don’t like an office romance drama that even business proposal and what’s wrong with secretary kim got me bored, weird but this is one of the few where I like the office romance plot. Maybe because it didn’t just focus on office plot, there’s something more to their story and that’s where the story centered

This is one of my fav comfort drama, everything just felt mature and comforting. Yoon kye sang isn’t the usual unrealistic overly handsome kdrama boss, but he has a manly charisma here that suit his character as a ruthless and hot tempered boss. I just really like how everything developed between them and how mature everything. But i think it could’ve been more better if they didn’t add the childhood connection plot, they could’ve just let the leads feelings grow after being workers for 5 years. Though, I really love this drama and will still keep rewatching!

I like how they are acting like a real married couple now. They are each other's comfort and peace, though both of them are unstable (one is physically and one is mentally) they accept and understand each other. It's like "No one can understand me better than you do" kind of love and I really love it

i thought this is just a normal historical drama with political and family conflict, but i didn’t expect that this also contains a supernatural one lol, unless everything was just ye li’s trick to make them reveal the edict or what really happened before.

I noticed that the imaginary maid she always talks to, only appears when she feels lonely. The maid seems like her younger self, she created an imaginary friend that resembles her younger herself, the one who she can comfort and who can comfort her when they need someone. Because no one did that to her after losing her mother:(

why do i feel like ye li’s uncle is her biological father? He cares for her more than anyone in the ye family and the painting of a woman that was dropped on his box when they are moving his things could be ye li’s mom. It seems like her mom and her uncle had a past, but the mom married the other brother instead. So, he find a way to be with ye li to watch and protect her by still living in the same household with her.

Or he can also be a villain and have his own motive of revenge that’s why he wants to move on prince ding’s place. But one thing i’m sure of is fl mom and uncle had a past. (it’s already obvious when they are having a conversation about her mom and how her mom views her uncle)

I do think there's an actual reason, cuz no way the father of the queen mother will let him rule as regent

Obviously, that's why they have prime a minister. You don't have to be against with people who's opinion is far from what you're saying

I know, lol. From the very start i know that the main plot is their love story, that's why I'm watching this drama. It was just my theory, cuz they obviously show that the young king is incapable of ruling and is not interested being a king, while they also show that i-an is capable

They describe the character of i-an as a grand prince, a spare who's good for nothing than having his royal title. But, watching it seems like he's not just a good for nothing prince, he's the regent and basically he's a king as the real king is too young to rule, the monarchy will not even stand if he's not there cuz the queen mother isn't in her right senses. He's much cooler than he was described before this drama was released, lol.

Also, I thought the queen mother will be the regent cuz she's the mom of the king and the late king's wife, like any other historical drama(especially cdrama) but they made i-an the regent, which suits him mosttt

I just don't expect that it will be all about ji ling, his misery, his loneliness and his love story by the near end. I love ji ling but so many characters was cast aside especially the main ones after they got out of the illusion

The ending was good as it shows the two couple being reunited. But by the near end few episodes were focused to one story. I love both the couple, but it makes me sad that they gave such a small screen time to the love story of wwy and wsg, when their story is also interesting

I expected more... Such an interesting start but it focuses on one character by the end. This drama could've done better as the story have so much potential

I have a two theory for the ending, it's either the young king will step down and let his uncle rule the country or the monarchy will abolish because of the messy politics inside the palace

I need a special episode for wu wangyan and wu shi guang:(

It's not, lol. They introduce 4 main leads, advertise 4 main leads, so it's not just ji ling and lu wuyi. And Joseph zheng isn't someone who's for second lead

I was wondering why the story focuses more on ji ling by the end, cuz i thought this story will surround on how wu shi guang discover himself about being the 10th dragon. Zheng shunxi is a known actor and far more establish(as he already has so much main roles) than tan jia ru who's still a newbie, but zhen shunxi have less more screen time here that's why I'm wondering how zhen shunxi accepted this project. I love tan jia ru but the story have more potential than focusing on his character here

This drama is getting so painful, I'm afraid that the two couple will not get their HE:(

So what's happening right now is far from the plot of the novel they transmigrated to? The supposedly fl of the novel died, the villains of the novel didn't become trashy characters but the ML did become one. Plus the supposedly love story between yong er and duan didn't even happen

Is Prince duan the real ML of the novel? He's evil than the "real" villain, dan is a tyrant but only when he's triggered and he's being reasonable. While the so-called male lead is doing much dirty and immoral work (impregnating yonger, harming wanyin, plotting evil plams etc) he's such a terrible male lead who literally doesn't love his fl, I'll probably one of the hater of the novel if I'll ever read it lol. Cuz, how come the evil character is much softer and emphatic than the main one.
