the stalker? who broke into people's homes?

yeah i watched the rest of the ep and i guess he had an excuse (his headaches/injuries/whatever) but is he going to act like that every time he has a headache?

anyway watched the rest of it HE'S SO BORING

atp he's the same as prince duan, like idgaf about your sad backstory, duan also has a sad backstory, that doesn't give either of you the right to be controlling misogynist egomaniacs? it always kills me when the sml is (correctly) portrayed as evil for his abusive actions and then when the ml does the same thing, it's just dark romance 🤪

ik by antagonist you mean the killer of peiyi's family, and he's not that, but he's definitely an evil-adjacent character to me. from i've seen so far, he's failed his daughters, his wives, and the random palace women he keeps assaulting a hundred times over. and as the emperor, he *is* the system, no?

but wu ren isn't a princess though lol? like i do agree the time period is extremely restrictive towards women, that's literally what the drama is about. i just don't get why there can't be *one* female doctor when she's supported by the chief imperial physician (i think that's who that is?) especially when there's another nonprincess detective walking around with even fewer challenges to her career than li pei yi

not to be shady but this is miles better than twd. with twd i lost interest in the middle of ep 6 like i couldn't even finish the episode. uvjw is brilliant storytelling however

they've got female detectives though, why not doctors

someone getting killed every two minutes but not a single person killing that fuckass emperor... oh alright

exactly i can accept this! even though i think he was more partners with her dad, i don't she had much power in the firm in the past life, unless i'm forgetting

did we watch the same drama? he consistently made decisions to protect companies abusing their workers over a ten year career, knowing jang tae shik he probably also made rulings to defend rapists; he harmed hundreds if not THOUSANDS of people. meanwhile the only person she did anything to was him. her dad's sins are not her own. he was a billion times worse and if he gets to be redeemed she gets to be an angel lol. like what even.

"only his majesty can read the list" you are not a serious person 😭

those two freaks (eunuch and chief justice) are absolutely colluding and if the emperor doesn't know, he's stupid asf

i agree with your comment! i think the culprits can be obvious, but the specifics are very twisty/intriguing, i honestly don't know why people are complaining

i am so sorry lol i forgot that wasn't revealed early on

i'm on ep 5, so i don't know about the rest, but it was obvious wanshun faked her death. but the guard and cui manshu's involvement was definitely a twist

the concept of fake crying when your daughter literally kills herself to avoid marrying a foreign prince and then immediately marrying your other daughter off to the SAME prince the next day... hsjfhkdfj these emperors hate their daughters down

yes as of now they're sort of together? sehui thinks so but lhy is pretending so he can use her connections. but he's falling for her ig. in the webtoon they do get remarried, but i don't think they'll get that far in the show.

if you literally don't talk to someone for years, yeah that's a stranger, no matter what relationship you're supposed to have. a bad relationship would make her even more justified bc there's even less reason to sacrifice yourself for someone you hate and who hates you than a stranger btw. and like i said, false testimony would be a crime, legally, yes, but from lhy's perspective i just don't see why he takes it so personally. it's not like he'd be jumping up and down defending HER if the positions were switched? he was a violent, corrupt judge in his past life too, and he gets to make amends now, but newlife sehui has to pay for something she doesn’t remember and didn’t do because lhy is a loser sitting in his feelings? does that make any sense?

it's so odd that hanyoung, and certain viewers as well, think pastlife sehui testifying against him was a personal betrayal and not a stranger crime (for lack of a better a word), if that. he literally didn't speak to her, didn't want to build a relationship, didn't consider her his family at all. which is valid because of what her father was doing, but the end result of that is that sehui was a complete stranger to him. you cannot betray a stranger. and why should she defend a lost cause (he was already going to jail at that point) at the expense of her own life (kang shinjin and whoever would have killed her too!!! people don't talk about that!!). why should she lay down her life to protect a STRANGER, is she mother theresa?? i get hanyoung disliking her, i do, i just don't get why he's taking so personally lol. that's not your wife who betrayed you, that's a random girl. and in your second life, she's sweet and loving too! see what happens when you're actually attentive as a boyfriend?
