As I said before, BY's entrance is always grand and intense. When he escorted SS's entourage, I thought it was…
Badass and bold, yes, but no proper communication is a no. She is scared of him. Chemistry and tension is indeed there, but he has other priorities and military mindset.
Ofc we know they are end game. They will get there. But right now LY is who she needs. Someone whose #1 priority is her. Upfront and clear with his intentions. And one that provides comfort, support and warmth in times when she crave love and kindness the most.
As I said before, BY's entrance is always grand and intense. When he escorted SS's entourage, I thought it was…
Its ironic when she said that because SS literally suffered in her hands, not just physically but emotionally too. She herself is a factor on why SS quickly wants to get married in the first place. Freedom.
Just like what SS said, YY did not raise her. So what gives her the right to discipline and make decisions for her.
YY watching SS being sad when separating from 3rd aunt was a nice sight. And I can't wait for SS to meet the empress and have all the motherly love that she deserves.
16/27 NN's sad face when bidding farewell to 3rd aunt and 3rd uncle was so so cute~ YY being snarky on the side,…
As I said before, BY's entrance is always grand and intense. When he escorted SS's entourage, I thought it was gonna be a door to door delivery. But, they legit just crossed the gate. lol
Him purposely causing misunderstanding. Uhm, when did SS undress him.. lol But really though, SS is right. Regardless of what BY did, all them loving and longing eyes, at the end of the day only LY proposed.
YY crying.. uhm, so am I supposed to feel for her..? SS though, she thanked them and got out of there real quick. She really want that freedom.
And grandma really out here jumping into conclusions. RIP 3rd uncle. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜‚
16/27 NN's sad face when bidding farewell to 3rd aunt and 3rd uncle was so so cute~ YY being snarky on the side, but NN didn't even spare her a glance and chose to look up instead. lol
Puppy cp is so cute~ LS probably had fun throwing those at LY actor just like that dancing bts of theirs. lol Never thought there is someone else more enthusiastic than LS when it comes to dancing. He was quite passionate. lol
15/27 FD what have you done. lol SS and LY "studying" those scrolls is probably the cutest cdrama cp moment I've…
I like how SS didn't accept the cloak from BY as she is already in a relationship. Even if LY will understand and won't mind as long as she isn't cold, it can still cause misunderstandings. It's a sign of respect for LY. BY asked that question when she didn't have other option. It's only LY that expressed his feelings. And most importantly, when it took time for SS to reply, LY came to find her, with her cloak in his hands. She didn't even need to say anything. The smile on her face when she ran towards LY. That answered BY's question.
So.. BY knew of 3rd aunt and master's love story and still.. STILL will choose to do "that" in the future..? Like WL said, its good that BY is handsome and SS likes him because ugh, the angst.
YS on the other hand, I didn't like the words he described SS with LY, but at the same time I enjoy the bickering between them.
15/27 FD what have you done. lol SS and LY "studying" those scrolls is probably the cutest cdrama cp moment I've ever seen. Kiddos~ They're really out there being lovey dovey in front of everyone. lol But I kinda feel sorry for LY, he's a puppy compared to the fox and wolf.
In this ep. each SS cp has different dynamics and I like all three of them. I feel chemistry (varying degrees) with each one. My BFX x YYZ, HC and FLX agenda is shaking. lol
To those planning to check this out while waiting for EAW, if you liked Eunbin's detailed acting in EAW, she does the same here. From the stance, voice, expressions, down to the mannerisms, she perfectly embodies the role.
This drama actually makes an effort as a crossdressing drama. It does not pretend like fl is a perfect male. They acknowledge that the prince is feminine. They showed the fl naturally developed manly gestures but she can't help but be feminine. It fits to the narrative that no matter how hard she tries, she can't hide her feminine qualities that will lead to suspicions.
And Eunbin understood the assignment. She effortlessly shifts between two different identities while depicting the fear, pain and grief that both characters hold. She portrayed the prince and princess both physically and emotionally really well.
As a historical drama, fl is the hero that drives the plot. Most fl's are not as privileged as they are usually just the love interest that every male character likes or a damsel in distress that everyone has to save. Here the fl has the higher status and is in a position to be involved in political matters as a crown prince turned king.
There are things kept from the webtoon and things changed for the better in drama. No accidental boob touch or anything like that, if thats a major concern for some. And most importantly, the reveal of the secret was tastefully done.
Overall, Eunbin's acting alone makes it worth watching. (KBS Drama Awards Top Excellence Actress, Baeksang Arts Awards Best Actress Nominee and Korea Broadcasting Award Best Actress). But everyone's taste is different. It's not perfect, but its a good watch while waiting for EAW.
I thought the grandma and SS were dramatic, but turns out its YY. She's the type of person that makes a big deal…
Agree. 3rd aunt and 3rd uncle are related to her. Same with QQ. Having someone like LY that is not related, being genuine and not just being biased. (I think this is also the reason why later on she'll feel the motherly love from the empress as she is not related to her.)
And LY being upfront makes him different from BY and YS. He is clear of his intentions. He doesn't talk in a roundabout way, does things anonymously or just look from afar. This can also be an assurance to SS that LY will always be honest and transparent to her. (In 3rd aunt's case, the one that was beside her despite being clumsy eventually won her heart, not the elegant master who just looks from afar).
Yes, the fact that it was highlighted how impressed and happy she was when she named the ones she wanted to eat and he found it for her, is a huge thing for someone who was starved and had to eat dirty food growing up.
13-14/27 NN negotiating with 3rd uncle is funny. Their scenes together is always peak comedy. But that development…
I thought the grandma and SS were dramatic, but turns out its YY. She's the type of person that makes a big deal out of everything. The type of parent that humiliates their kid on public instead of taking them somewhere private, sit down, talk and communicate like decent human beings. Everyone saying SS is like YY, nope, SS's illiterate self has more manners than YY.
No wonder SS didn't mind the old desk and used scrolls, she couldn't even have a candy properly.
Ah, but the little girl didn't survive.. Glad that LY is with her this time. He might not be up to par with the other 2 mls but right now, he is the person she needs. Aside from the comfort, support and warmth, she is WELL FED.
13-14/27 NN negotiating with 3rd uncle is funny. Their scenes together is always peak comedy. But that development from being awkward to actually talking now, and he listens to her too. Him and 3rd aunt doesn't nitpick on her shortcomings, but instead considers her strengths, supports and praise her for it.
On the other hand, the emperor saying CS is useless for only having one daughter. lol But not as funny as when NN's smile disappeared when her father told her she'd gained weight. I agree your highness~ lol
Its LLTG day again~ I'm quite looking forward to seeing fl with 2ml and 3ml. I like how she's written in a way that doesn't cater to the usual standard of fls that has to be extremely pure (for the ml) with no previous romantic interaction or experience.
Also excited for the angst because its based on a good story. Since I trust this production team, I expect those will be executed well. I especially look forward to the showcase of the leads acting on those scenes.
I'm hoping this will give me what ZLS's previous drama didn't. It's not gonna be smooth sailing, it'll be emotional and deep but satisfying journey to the end.
And I knew something was up with the military maid when she was given screen time. But SS did well for her first…
Yes, if SS already reacted like that with someone she just recently got to know, she definitely would've had a hard time if it was LF.
MM did well, she was not an ordinary servant, and she fulfilled her job well.
Hopefully, some hope in that ruined county. And yes, I mean he looked like he felt the pain from the arrow. Right general even had to assist him but when SS was mentioned, its like pain was gone and the adrenaline kicked in.
And he worked out indeed, almost got dehydrated for them abs. lol But thirst is only temporary, looking handsome is forever, right WL. lol
Ofc we know they are end game. They will get there. But right now LY is who she needs. Someone whose #1 priority is her. Upfront and clear with his intentions. And one that provides comfort, support and warmth in times when she crave love and kindness the most.

The wolves though. lmao
YS was so done!
Revenge >>> SS.
Let's see how the drama adapts it.
BY asked that question when she didn't have other option. It's only LY that expressed his feelings. And most importantly, when it took time for SS to reply, LY came to find her, with her cloak in his hands. She didn't even need to say anything. The smile on her face when she ran towards LY.

ZLS and chemistry.
Science. It just works.
They're really out there being lovey dovey in front of everyone. lol
But I kinda feel sorry for LY, he's a puppy compared to the fox and wolf.
In this ep. each SS cp has different dynamics and I like all three of them. I feel chemistry (varying degrees) with each one. My BFX x YYZ, HC and FLX agenda is shaking. lol
And I really liked the ending..!
Clearer than the webtoon.
And better than a lot of historical dramas.
It wrapped up well.
From the stance, voice, expressions, down to the mannerisms, she perfectly embodies the role.

As a romance drama, the ml here is also sweet like Junho. Yes there is cliché, but its a reverse cliché. The ml being good with books, medicine and gardening, while the fl being great at hunting, fighting and swimming. The fl being the hero and the ml as the love interest is refreshing and entertaining.
