I like your perspective. I feel the same 💕.

😊

I don’t know that she wants to eliminate Taeju from getting any inheritance at all. If so, that would be wrong and unfair. I think, instead, she just wants her fair share piece of the pie too. She wants each person to be given an inheritance according to his/her strengths. Her strength is business. Therefore, she wants to be CEO as rightly she should be. Taeju needs to find his strengths. But, he should not be removed as an heir altogether. Perhaps, Huiju could take Taeju under her wing and train him to be a better businessman. They should team up instead of being adversarial.

I believe we will get a happily-ever-after ending. 💕That’s the only thing that makes sense.

Pure Speculation:


Guys, I have this theory that Queen Mother had something on the former King when he was the Crown Prince. (Maybe he was gay?) That’s how she was able to force him into marriage against his will. She used the marriage to cover up her illegitimate pregnancy with someone else. The little King, therefore, is not actually the legitimate heir of the late King. Grand Prince knew the whole truth about everything and was begging his brother not to go through with the marriage in that wedding flashback we saw.

I thought it was “Jo” InSung not “Zo” InSung.

He’s got a Cheng Lei vibe.

I came here to say the same exact thing 😄

exactly

one of the best of 2026, we know what you meant 😉🥰

He does have a younger vibe than she does. But, in real life, he is older. In this drama, however, they seem well-matched, on the same level. He has the sunbae vibe here.

Many have been able to see their charm. Hopefully, they will align with Huiju instead of remaining adversaries.

I feel the urge to watch asap. My whole purpose of getting through the week is to make it to Friday so that I can watch a new episode. I love this show!

People have speculated that she had a one-sided crush on him in high school or something. I definitely don’t believe that he was ever interested in her. I only sense hostility and annoyance from him towards her now. He’s tired of her control over everything. But, he treads carefully with her especially when dealing with the little King because he doesn’t want to get into with the Queen Mother who seems to be a complicated and difficult woman.

FL’s style has been quite good—that elegant pink dress she wore to the awards ceremony, the lovely green/pink floral Joseon outfit she wore when Court Lady was training her, the black belted Houndstooth jacket with cream-colored flowy miniskirt —all gorgeous outfits. Even her red plaid PJs are cute and stylish. The baseball date outfit with jeans was casual comfort perfection. Which outfit did you find to be unstylish?

Why is your comment redacted?

I see the similarities to Princess Di too—the people’s adoration, the car crash. But, she was a noble not a commoner. The story is also similar to Meghan Markle/Prince Harry and Kate/Prince William to me. Both Meghan and Kate were wealthy commoners like Huiju. Meghan also has a terrible relationship with her father like Huiju.

Kate learned to how to adjust to royal life. But, Meghan struggled to adjust to the restrictive rules. Even things as simple as wearing red nail polish or going to a function bare-legged with no stockings were disallowed. There were many other matters far weightier than those that made Meghan crumble. It’s so disappointing how things turned out.

Anywho, I agree— this story “Perfect Crown” is absolutely delightful.

I was referring to the moment after the baseball game was over. The Prime Minister invited Huiju to dinner and was taking her away right under the Prince’s nose! They were on a date. Yet, the Prime Minister invites her to go to dinner right then and there! That showed no respect to the Prince. It was clear he wasn’t taking their date seriously at all. He was trying to interfere and take Huiju away from the Prince. I understand that he likes her, but that was too rude and disrespectful.

The little kid is the son of the former King who died in the fire. That’s why he has inherited the throne. The throne goes through the eldest child’s family.

That’s why Prince Harry would likely never become King because the throne would go to his elder brother (Prince William) and then to his elder brother’s kids before ever coming to him.

I actually like the deep, slow, deliberate way of speaking she has—quite arresting and dramatic. It sounds authoritative.

But, there was one scene where she was screaming hysterically because the public loved Huiju and the Prince so much and her father basically said to get a grip. Well, her screams sounded so shrill and awful and reminded me why I dropped “Are You Human Too?” after ep 1 or 2– because her screaming and acting were so offputting in that.

Her acting is much-improved here in “Perfect Crown”, quite good actually, except for that shrill screaming. I really enjoyed her in “Flower Joseon Crew Matchmakers” (something like that). That was a fun drama. She was charming in that.
