me too! (not so secretly)

He didn't know till he saw her dressed up. The neck part - he was just possesive. There's no deeper thought in this, it's similar like when he was watching her with the evil minister's grandson on the corridor before. Just jealous. He didn't put pieces together afterall.
I don't even think he gave up on looking for the dancer, he was just too busy keeping his favourite eunuch alive.
The whole point is he came to a place where he doesn't care what her sex is (but her being a girl makes it all more comfortable, of course). Look how his attitude was different now that he knows, but she didn't know that he knew.

Nah, I disagree. The character is supposed to be childish and maybe overly cute. The true problem is his very presence. How is he still getting so much screentime? He's like, 5th lead, but he's just getting a whole new arc (that looks like taken from another prince, but that's not important right now). He has more presence than 13th and 14th combined.

Too scarred for a Phantom mask to cover.

I think Han Hyo Joo is a victim of drama-mode of acting/actor directing? here (think Lee Sung Kyung in CITT, Gong Hyo Jin's aegyo, entire Hwang Jung-Eum etc). She's much better in The Beauty Inside (it took me 20-30 minutes to even recognize her, because, yeah, poor facial recognition skills on my part, but she's very different there), there's no exaggeration nor awkwardness. I even thought about this while watching those behing-the-scenes - she acts casual after the camera stops.

Ok, but what about the dead body? that drowned and decomposed? I was still waiting for it resurface. Was it a red herring?

lol @ 00:25:19
meta till the end.

So was the whole tree-talking scene (I mean, minus wolves, obviously) an allusion to IU's Zeze? Cool.

Thanks! I'll check it out.

Nope, it's 400 years earlier or so. 6FD was about the fall of Goryeo dynasty and establishing Joseon, that's its very begining, after uniting old kingdoms.

Am I the only one wondering how are they managing to match some scenes with the other Moon series (e.g. birthday performances around ep 3 I guess, puppet shows yesterday)? Internal intelligence? Coincidence? I don't think so.
It's like they're challenging the comparisons.

Did I blink and miss something or did they pull Royal Gambler again? Did that girl had any significant impact on the plot whatsoever? why was she even there? Besides that everything fell into places beautifully (present from the beginning in a plain sight - golden ink, meeting a scholar etc), but she sticks like a sore thumb.

those parts are recapped in comments section on dramabeans tho (like here - 5.4.2).
I really hope hunting for both versions and comparing them to grasp what's going on won't be a standard from now on.

Uhm, so as we're all bunch of entitled brats here, has anyone found a video of all missing scenes from ep 6 neatly put up together and posted somewhere?

So it's going to be a standard from now on, isn't it? As the version for c-tv had to be approved before so they probably wont' bother to get the remastered one and get the whole approval process from the scratch.

Nah, it's unwatchable today.
/on a second thought, the fact that Yoo Seung Ho was apparently born with this smug of his is still amusing.

She's about to do something ugly.
Spoilers ahead (but not very spoiler-y), re: bulling arc & Hye Ji's character.


the are many reasons to keep it on hold, but the bullying arc isn't one of them, it doesn't last long. How they conveniently forgot that the heroine was supposed to be strong is another thing.
Clinginess aside, Hye Ji's attitude is questionable. She's dellusional, manipulative and posessive (and as the writters can only handle one likable male character at once, Hyun min is sacrificed for this). She uses Ha Won as an excuse to be in a proximity of Hyun Min and creates situations in which Ha Won keeps apologizing to her - I honestly can't tell for what and on what grounds. At this point, she exist only to lurk around and watch everyone with teary eyes and excuses than no one likes her as they like Ha Won. She's just badly written. There is nothing in her but that blind force to be with Hyun Min whether he likes it or not and we're supposed to see it as a bravery.
As others pointed out, it would be easier to symphatize with her if the great reason for breaking was finally revealed and we knew what happened between them.

I wonder how were the public sentiments shaping when those two first aired. The ending of QIHM had a very mixed reception.

Try dramalove.tv or hdfree.se (subs are only working in Chrome for some reason).

I stopped doing so when they were watching stars and snow at the same time. Those temporal instabilities sucking swimmers hundreds years back are only getting worse.
