Yes! The production and cinematography is really good! And the acting. Great music too. If you like angst, I think you will enjoy this. The two leads have really great chemistry. Their scenes together is very good.
I think the synopsis on MDL isn’t well written. I’m assuming the word spy is more like she will deceive Jin…
He didn’t condemn Mong Woo to death. It was 100 flogging & 3 yrs of labor (still terrible though) Whether he knew she went missing or fled, I think we’ll know next week.
Sure it would be silly to trust someone who you’ve hurted terribly but Jin Han really wants to see Mong Woo lol. His heart is wavering & it’s going to bite him in the butt.

I’ve seen ep 4.
I’m saying it make sense to enter the court as Mong Woo (a man) when people in the court know her as a man already. Jin Han is looking for a baduk instructor. Thats how HeeSoo (dressed as Mong Woo) will get closer to him. I don’t think he’ll kill Mong Woo when his feelings about him after 3 years is still there.
So many interesting and unexpected writing choices in this drama already and we're only on episode 4. I have no…
I think the synopsis on MDL isn’t well written. I’m assuming the word spy is more like she will deceive Jin Han. But it seems like Jin Han is looking for a baduk instructor (personal assistant)? I think HeeSoo dressed as Mong Woo will end up working under/alongside Jin Han’s command.
Being a prolific baduk player as Mong Woo, she’ll be closer to Jin Han’s side & have some sort of status. I mean if she enters the court as a woman, she’ll end up as a lowly court lady, cook, or part of his concubine. I don’t think Hee Soo wants that lol. Plus some people in the court already know her as a man. It’s safer that way.
Edit: Actually I think she will become a spy (since Master Chu is a spy himself)
My heart is broken for Hee Soo. Just like that she lost her father (basically), lost a best friend, and has been…
She lost Hong Jang 😭 & her dad is far away as a prisoner 🥲 Although I’m curious what happened between those 3 years. Seems like HeeSoo was trained by Master Chu. Poor guy lost an eye.
I don’t think Myung Ha will be a villain. He probably hates Jin Han with all his guts. I think he will help HeeSoo with her revenge. In the character chart it says friend & affection.
Would that mean King Lee In has other women too right? Since Court Dong is 5th in ranking.

I assumed that she is because Queen Dowager gave her 3 tassels in ep 4 which signifies her Concubine status to the king who is now Jin Han.
He is a King so I’m not suprised he is married already & has a concubine lol.
Here is the character chart. Wow. I’m excited to see where this goes!

But there’s gonna get plenty of moments between Lee In & Mong Woo next week! Excited to see them play baduk against eachother!

in the butt.
I think Jin Han thinks Mong Woo did testify against him because of shitty Hyun Bo 😒 hence the punishment

I think her coming back to the court scene as Mong Woo will be fun. I can’t wait to see how she deceives Jin Han. Both as Mong Woo & HeeSoo.
Yeah, Lee shin young acting isn’t doing anything for me lol. Everyone was great in ep 4.
When he faked an attestment without HeeSoo permission 😒 I get he was trying to save her but it didn’t help 🤣 It made everything worst lol.
Lady Dong character charts reads affection towards Jin Han.
For Jin Han & HeeSoo, it is affection & opposing towards eachother.
I don’t think Myung Ha will be a villain. He probably hates Jin Han with all his guts. I think he will help HeeSoo with her revenge. In the character chart it says friend & affection.
