Forgiveness and what ? another venting session. it is really all accumulating

was i a fan of how quickly pink panther was forgiven ? no. am i about to dictate and decide on when a charcter can and should forgive another ? no. but i just feel like there is still quite a bit of betrayal going on aor had gone on. also i dont reallz appreciate them using the dead mother trope for a now 3rd time /4th if u count ma li (devilfish). also the fact that pink panthers story is exactly like the client xiaoyue had to protect in a former episode. this does not only make it feel uncreative. it feels very lazy.also i really did not like how panther not only accused the others of being 'FAKE', but also then proceeds to project on to them. i feel as if she was projecting , what she would have done in their positions, thus further showing her morales and character. now i get that she is in a extremely highly emotional situation, there should be a bit grace shown towards her. yet the tumor doesn't as far as we know directly influence her decision making and thinking (mostlz her sight ) . does it excuse her also throwing li juang under the bus and hide evidence and actively hinder missions by that?so might it seem like i hate pink panther? myb. do i act hate her? a clear no. i just heavily dislike her character , and what seemed like a wasted promising character growth (that i was looking forward to) in the beginning episodes and how that has been ignored and not really evolved. her character has not really grown or changed really in the last , i want to say 30 episodes... as she is one of the mc's or atleast more focused upon characters we'd expect more.also not a big fan of how for the last what 3-6 ? ep's firewolf and whitesharks everz second convo feels the same.(not moving forward due to firewolfs ? unsureness?conflicting emotions? and white sharks pining and stuborness. if it wasn't clearly shown that it was mutual, i would be horrified by the amount of times a clear communication (we can't be together,no,we'll never be ) was ignored and bz the way he insistenty keeps trying.

Another emotional episode

The story is starting to really finally build out the emotional stakes for Li Pei Yi (and also, to a lesser extent, Xiao Huaijin) by fleshing out her back story. This is the first time we get a real look (through flashback) at her Mother and Father and it was cool to realize they are being played by the great veteran actors Ma Xiao Qian and Geng Le, respectively. Li Pei Yi's "forced" return to confinement in her ancestral family home feels like a calculated move on both her part and the Emperor's. Yes, it confines her. And yes, by putting her outside the palace, it makes her a possibly easy target for the villains. But it also serves to bring a seed of new life in the ancient manor and it also presents opportunities to lure the villains into making a mistake. I feel like the Emperor did exactly what Li Pei Yi wanted him to do by confining her there.On a side note, I'm really loving the side-couple of Wu Ren and Gu Ling Zhou.

Venting bc. I can't tolerate it anymore

ugh first time reviewing one of hot girls episodes, but that just speaks to how freaking annoyed I'm with pink panther! Like we knew from the beginning ,by the way she was recruited by Wang fu, that she had ulterior motives,but the last two ep's really showed how horrible,she actually is. not only is she withholding information on rock and is a planted agent,but she is also a horrible friend. Especially Since she has been a friend of xiaoyue's since before the plot started and her "being friends with the others can be pushed to her acting as a planted traitor"... And besides her honestly disturbing level of obsession and stalking she did on white shark, she is so twisted in her mind that she is now blaming him on not reciprocating her feelings, although he did try multiple times and telling her over multiple episodes as to how hung up he is on firewood???? Like arghhhh. I can't , also li jiangs obsessiveness wws there again and I def did not like it as I did from the start of the drama... Honestly if they push pink panthers f'ed up behaviour to her having cancer I will loose it.... Also I do not fully like guan, like I knew from the moment he didn't tell xiaoyue, that he was the one who recommended her to the camp, that there were gonna be wayy more secrets. And this ep proved it. Hiding the truth ,just so that a child hates her father bc. He himself hated him???? Like urghh and also in general ,in my eyes it's very two faced of him to have told xiaoyue all those ,somewhat lies and that they'd been in contact,and then act so different towards the man in question in person. Like ???? Why are u being so amicable/friendly, dare I say respectfully to a person u hate?

It was the greatest ep, There wasn't a moment I didn't like.From Arnold and Tua the cutest couple, Their moments, Their sweetness, And Their supporting to each others... I really liked that scene when the Thai actor wasn't able to come, And Tua called Arnold, It's a chance, And I'm so happy that Arnold got that chance, I expected him and Dean before the girl started talking about his tall and so on 💪🏼Jack and Dean, I really felt sad... Dean didn't deserve to stay alone because of Loving Jack. I know I wasn't beside him all the time, Because him teasing Raffy... But still, What happened that night wasn't by his choice... He was drugged, And no one talked about that!!!!But I'm happy that Jack saw the light again, And now he knows he really deserve to stay by his side, And who really have to get the chance, And who can tolerate him!Jack and Rome, Finally we got to see him take a conversation as normal people hahahaha, Without harsh words or hard punches 😅Sand and Ray, I screamed again n again because of them, And I laughed so hard because of Ray's reaction when he saw how Raffy acted 🤭🤣And Finally~~~ My fav ones RomeRaffy, They really great, They did a great Job, And I'm so happy that Raffy took what he deserves in the end, He really deserves to be boss 🤭🤭🤭 And He is so sexy as Rome said 🫣I wished they get more scenes, but... I won't ruin my mood because of that, I'll rewatch their scenes more n more n more... And The confession was so sweet~~~ It's Raffy's attitude anyway 🤭The last scene made me confused... Are we getting Ss3??? Or??

Our leads have gone through so much...

OMG, our leads in Joseon went through so much because of the King. He probably chose to take her as his concubine just so his brother wouldn't be able to have her, and then framed her and had her killed—all to torture his brother, the Ghost Prince. I wonder why he felt so threatened by him? 🤔And now Choi Mun-Do is planning pretty much the same again against Cha Se-Gye, using Shin Seo-Ri the same way he did with Kang Dan-sim. What a scoundrel! 😤 I am quite sure her knowledge of those past events, and her likely future celebrity status, will be great obstacles to his plans. ☝️And what was with that weird act when Mun-Do and Se-Gye were children? He was so power-hungry and greedy already in childhood that he started poisoning Se-Gye's grandfather's mind even then? And how could the grandfather be so easily swayed to some distant cousin's side without clarifying the situation? 🤔😤I want to learn more about the history there... and why was the distant cousin brought to their home in the first place!? 🤨Apart from that, I really enjoyed all the little comedy elements and the rom-com moments we got. I am also quite invested in that supporting character—the guy with all the part-time jobs who steals the side dishes from our girl... 🤗😂 But yes—this show is amazing so far, and I cannot wait patiently enough for tomorrow's episode! Our lead couple is amazing—both the actors AND the characters! I love them both! ❤️
