Btw I hope Ji Hwan's mom doesn't cause any hurdles for their relationship. She did not seem very happy reading…
She may think Yeo Ri has no right to happiness when her own son is dead and probably blames Yeo Ri for it too. I hope that's not the case, though cos she'll definitely be able to influence his grandmother.
My theory about the ghosts is that the injustice around Ji Hwan's death was so great that he caused her to see ghosts to try and solve his own death. Unfortunately, she was too young then and it never happened. I'm glad Gang Uk has started looking into it now though. I also fully believe that dude had a hand in his brother's death, until proven otherwise. His obsession with and entitlement to Yeo Ri is so toxic that he probably lashed out at his brother on the boat.
Yeo Ri is a better person than me cos I would've touched that rat cousin and her mother a long time ago. Since they want to be mad, let them go all the way.
The story was so tragic that I kept waiting for the miracle return. I figured out from the first time they showed the flashback of the emperor's brother's death that it was an agreement, but even I didn't realise he still let his greed control him and he took the throne from Huayong. I like that he was not just a deadbeat dad, but also a selfish POS who messed up everyone's lives, but still made Huayong feel like the sun shone from his behind. A man of many layers, certainly.
The only characters I found absolutely unbearable were the Gu sister and fake Bu Shulin's wife. Tiresome and unnecessary.
Interesting. I thought it was weird he even considered turning his ex-wife down. It seemed like a simple ask,…
I found it an odd ask for the ex because they have been separated for so long and she's re-married. It got even worse when he revealed the circumstances of their break-up. The fact that the first thing her mother asked was about his mother also made me upset cos it's just making him revisit his own grief because she didn't want to do the hard thing of breaking her mother's heart with the news of the present day. I even had the thought that her current husband might find the whole thing very uncomfortable and awkward.
I also didn't understand why FL kept being upset about him talking to his ex. It's not even like he was the one constantly bringing up his ex or hung up on her or their relationship. But I did not support the ex asking him to put himself in that situation even if he didn't have a new girlfriend.
Two things... (Cos I just started binging this) It was so inappropriate for his ex-wife to ask him to meet with her mother. They've been divorced for a while and she's remarried so why would she bring him into it? And in the end it was useless because that's just how dementia works unfortunately.
Second, for Ji Yoon to be that upset about him talking to his ex when she was the one who asked him to go and her own ex was the one talking shit about Si Woo not 5 mins ago really annoyed me. She gets very inconsistent sometimes and it's almost unbearable.
Also, I wish her parents would get divorced low-key.
I always need a palette cleanser after watching this show. Every episode is just Xiao Fan being a doormat who can't even speak while everyone around him walks all over him and insults him. So if his toxic wife hadn't done her thing, he would've gone to ask them to marry his sister, right? At least he's finally asked for a divorce, even if his reasoning is still pathetic as hell.
The thing that annoys me the most isn't just how he lets them do whatever, it's the head down, voice low all the time. I'm straining my ears to hear him speak and it's always trash. We are more than halfway through this show now. At what point will his spine kick in? 😩
At this point, Xi He's refusal to admit that she's fallen for Hua Yong is frustrating af 😩 cos why are you wasting the little time you have left with that man???
(I expect them to find a miracle cure in the last minute but still)
undercover NIS agents were monitoring him, one was his neighbor laundrymat guy and the other was his colleague…
My point exactly. They've always known where he was and what he was doing. To call in an army to attack him because he's going after drug dealers and human traffickers who may or may not have killed his daughter is actually insane. They were unnecessarily over the top.
Absolutely floored with how ridiculous the intelligence agency is cos what do you mean the NK agent who infiltrated the country, attacked multiple people, INCLUDING CHILDREN, and tried to assassinate someone on SK soil is not even on their radar????? 😭
I don't understand why the government is so heavily involved in this plot. They've been watching 66 since he settled there, presumably. Or did they say they just discovered him? It makes no sense to pull in this level of forces to attack Kim for... Beating up human traffickers????
I think for me the funniest thing in this drama is the way incense is the ultimate answer to everything. I'm just patiently waiting for the princess to develop an incense that will counteract the mysterious poison in the crown prince😂
