The Princess's Gambit Episode 8
0 people found this review helpful
Well the two princes showed up just in time. Kinda funny seeing psycho prince going to his friend. They’re going to tell dad what am I going to do?😝 He is a scary person but also a cowardly bully. 😝Seeing him and Meng made me curious about boy that saved Chancellor. Family or noble? Meng family must be local crime lords. They seem to run the operation and have embedded themselves for years. They will have a little black account book for all the nobles that have participated in the gambling hall and benefited from laundering counterfeit money to the masses. I really didn’t expect them to burn down the house, but chancellor had a point. The silver and gold won’t burn; just the incriminating evidence. Luckily and not, the prince responded quite promptly with the news before chancellor’s report. The emperor is not impressed that he watched and waited rather than correct his brother earlier. It is decided that a slap on the wrist will cover it as their hub has been dismantled. There is a heart in psycho Prince. He was truly distressed that oldest Meng son bore his punishment. He even fought for him to end it. The uncle then admonished him to be wiser and think of the consequences of his actions. The lesson didn’t sink in too far since he still manhandled a poor servant girl. Our Princess is very shrewd . She drew a full map for the chancellor and only half the map for her antidote handler. Unfortunately her tattoo was visible to Prince so he stormed into fabric shop. Fortunately the antidote made her flower invisible. But, she gave herself away talking too much. He recognized her voice. She is now being relentlessly hunted by his guards. They have to find her or not come home, so they are not going to stop looking for her. Her bodyguard comes and pleads her case to chancellor but is told the princess is clever enough to get herself home. As she slips down a large slope she is caught in his arms so he obviously rethought his response for aid. They manage to give the guards the slip and camp out in an animal den. So fun when she wakes up leaning on his shoulder and he’s like…I wasn’t being nice to you😂These two have such sweet moments in spite of their tense and life threatening circumstances.🥰A little girl finds them and basically tells them to get lost🤣 She has no patience for uppity people and doesn’t want to waste time or resources on them. She is not happy about the chicken sacrificed for them. When a traveling merchant come through the Princess buys treats for the girl. She begrudgingly accepts them.😂She is adorable and has a very sharp tongue for such a young lady. They can’t return to the house because they know they won’t survive, so they persuade the young girl to invite them home and while there, they notice counterfeit money has already made it to remote villages. The chancellor decides to stick around for awhile and wants the princess to chat with the women to find out as much as possible. He has not commented on what he is going to do other than say it was more important.😝 I like them better in the plainer clothes. They really do look like a couple dressed like this. The chancellor is already plotting how to proceed and so is the princess. She is going to learn what that painting means so she can find a way to tell all the royals to kiss off and get her brother safe. These two are interesting. They both stay quiet even if not calm when under duress and they consider collateral damage of their choices while also thinking outside the box on the fly. They are quite a remarkable pair.

The RM team got a new case, the maid servant of Koo Ryeon of her past life, this is gonna hurt Ryeon. Now that Cinnamon Roll knows about Ryeon's past he's being more attentive towards boss Koo's feelings. The popular singer and actress, her negative energy level is high, people are just waiting for a single opportunity to destroy her career. Mr Park went to see the Director to confirm if Koo Ryeon is connected to his past, after finding out that she killed herself, but his past life is locked away. He's going to find out himself even if it means breaking the Reaper's code of conduct. Ms Cho, the idol, wanted to end her life, after an article was released and her condition went extreme. But when Ryeon went to save her, Park came in between and used The Reaper's Guarantee, and the accident occurred. Koo Ryeon couldn't do anything but see everything she was binded by the vow. Sobbing, Choi knew her pain and hugged her, I'm crying. Ryeon lost it, and went to beat up that bully idol and the people who plotted behind ms Cho. This new character Mr. Ha made quite a dramatic or should I say stylish and cool entrance, and looked like a rival for the director position. He's threatening her to take Koo Ryeon to Hell cause she has been interfering in the affairs of the living. Will I cry at the end? Yes! Will I still watch it till the end? Damn Yes, cause I like to hurt myself by crying a lot.

This plot is interesting and drew me in right away. The directing is beautiful so far. I can't believe the script and how real it feels in terms of just life struggle. Cast is awesome so far

It was the best and most unpredictable ending. If someone spoiled me with the ending before release then I would've thought it must be a joke.

The Princess's Gambit Episode 7

The princess goes all in to rescue bodyguard. The chancellor spends three days teaching her how to play the game. She already has card counting skills and great memory so she is a quick study. He tests her one last time and warns that it is a dangerous enterprise and once there they are committed. She has the mannerisms and eye expressions down now to be a formidable player. It takes awhile, but she beats the house and is now playing psycho prince. The goal is his jade piece to open the lock. The prince changes up the game but fortunately chancellor signaled her how to bet. He deftly swaps jade pieces and heads for the vault. There, he finds myriad traps and sets one off. I still have no clue how he escaped that, but he managed it. The princess has her own traps to survive. She has lost and this next hand she has upped the stakes. She has put a 500k gold price as her worth, and risks selling herself to psycho. She is definitely aware of the stakes of that move but takes it anyways. The chancellor shows up just in time for her to call it. The prince’s mask is removed and yelling of a vault break in, where Princess is accused of being a partner in crime. The chancellor grabs her and they head out in the chaos, but her tattoo has been revealed and now all of the women are being checked at the exits. She bravely offers to stay behind and trust that he will come back and save her. He wants to know why she would do so much for a servant and was surprised and moved when her response was ‘she is not a servant, she’s my family’. This has a childhood flashback where someone saved him but must not have survived. He was unwilling to leave her and agreed with her comment of them being fated. The chancellor has arranged for bodyguard to be rescued. He and Princess may not be so lucky. He has a backup plan, but they are currently barely hid in the room with psych prince, as he is ordering for all closets to be opened. There are people right outside their door as the episode ends. This was a very tense episode and regardless of their preferences, they are being tossed together in life or death circumstances where trust is demanded from both of them. The looks shared between these two as they run through the gauntlet making their choices is absolute fire.🔥 I am hoping if the backup plan is the prince upstairs, that he and other prince will move their arses and help them out.😬

this ep took me a while to finish, 1st off the writers & director's need to decide about Mon's mother or does she suffer from split personality?!? one sec she is hounding poor Kim (cause she knows she can get away with stalking & bossing him around) demanding to know what her son is doing with him & when he is bringing her son back. the next she is hanging with her friends acting like everything was in Kim's head & he didn't have to rush back. like plz with this sh*t.******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Per & Tar r as adorable as ever, that kiss was & wasn't expected - but i get Tar was shook & not know what to do about it, went into hiding & when he came back he turned it in to a big fat joke telling it to the whole class, hurting Per. as am sure the conclusion he came to was that Per kissed him just to shut him up & prevent him from kissing a stranger. so i am glad they talked it out. & maybe they not ready to realize their feelings or face them - either way they back to being friends now & that is more then enough. ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Shane is too serious, but as everything is new to him he is unsure & has to think everything through. or sit with sh*t before he makes a move. which thankfully Kit is smart enough to recognize & understand. he doesn't take it personally even if he feels slighted. he thinks about Shane & gives him time to come around. all the couples here r such green flags. even the older teacher coupling - idk why Mon's mother got more power over a teacher that's taught there longer but it annoys me how she uses that power to manipulated & threaten people.

The Uncanny Counter Season 2: Counter Punch Episode 12

Episode 12 brings heavy action and strong emotion. The 4-min countdown dragged on for 40 hours, but Ju-seok’s arc delivered well. Despite pacing hiccups, it wrapped key threads with impact. It had a satisfying end.

While watching this episode lets just say i cried at the conversation miaomiao and her dad had about her "dream" I'm glad she got some type of closure from her father's death. The end of episode made me so curious on what's gonna happen next because of what ziqi found out about miaomiao.

I am blown away by how much I love this drama. As a fan of the novel and webtoon, I look forward to the rest of the story and pray it doesn't fly too far from the general premise.

OK, it’s all coming together. Imagine watching your friend jump off a building and then you get accused of pushing them. I would never show my face ever again and this poor kid thinks it’s his fault not it’s not his fault that he was there and the other fault that he ran away, but yeah, I’m low-key craving the show even though I’m still a little confused of who’s who because there’s a lot of couples and everyone has literally the same variation of the same haircut if they had different haircut like someone had like a buzz I’d be more Like understanding, but everyone has either the middle part the bowl cut or the pushback and the big ears, their faces look different, but the haircut are throwing me off all off. the guy who watched his friend jump off the building, and then the teachers assistant Low-key looks similar cause their haircut is like they both have like the same like weird little side part with the word, and then when the guy who wash his friend jump off the building to cover his hat, not even recognize it, which is crazy. 9/10 okay bye!L

This was one of the best, funniest 1st episodes I've seen in a while. I was laughing so hard and feel like it will be even better on the rewatch because I know a lot of the jokes went over my head. The set up for this drama is wild, but so well done. I can't wait for more!
