    I'm sure CJ will reappear again within Ep 18.

    When the tiger leaves the den, the rats come out to play.

    This is a good way to find out who supports the King and who opposes.

    I am sure CJ has faith in BI that no harm will happen to SB.

    BI must have had his eyes opened when he realises that they are even willing to use him in their battle against CJ/SB through something so dishonorable.

    HJ did a very queenly thing by refusing to get involved. I'm sure this is not the last we will see of her. It's only Ep 17. I do pity her now. She can never marry even if she finds someone to love. She is forever the King's woman even if they never consummated their relationship. Even if YP were to go to her, he can't marry her unless it's in secret but that would be dishonorable.

    Sometimes the chemistry is really obvious *whispers BinJin* but I am happy not to ship the actors in real life.

    KJH is quite an intense actor and he really shine in those tense scenes. But he can also be unbelievable goofy (that scene when he is trying to make his Queen smile. Haha)

     

    SHS is also very professional and there has been not a huge whiff of relationships, especially with her co-stars.

    I liked her in Still 17 with Yang Se Jong and Angel with L. But at that time I was not hugely shipping her with her co-stars either.

     

    I am looking forward to the special episodes. I know she must be So Yong (unmarried) with her hair down (daenggi meori) and then there are scenes of her as the Queen. Looking forward to tomorrow!

    I think at HJ all this while had this insecure jealousy of SY.

    She knew the King (CJ) loved her more and therefore she was willing to enter the palace as a concubine because she would definitely have more sway over CJ than the Queen (SY). 

    I still remember the hurt on SY's face when she implored CJ to love her. And his reply 'Is that an order' shows that he would have done his duty to beget a heir (if he has too) but he would have spent more time with his royal consort HJ. 

     

    I also did not really like how HJ revealed the truth about the book to CJ. 

    Yes, she came clean only to realise that he already knew but he was willing to ignore that. The ledger was what broke him. And when she added her only dream was him (which implies she never shared the same dream as CJ - very different from So Bong who is 'all-in' in helping this man who is bound to lose - fate wise)

    I am not sure if she really loved CJ or saw him as someone who SY liked (and helped) as a child and now schemes to take CJ's love. HJ is beautiful and I am sure CJ would have fallen for her but I feel that if HJ had remained the person who could listen to CJ and shared his dreams, knowing that he had to marry SY because of the clan, she would have remained in his heart. 

    The moment her jealousy overtook her and she started playing the pitiful victim, she had become a monster. [And I love what So Bong said to her during Round 3]

     

    The source of the rumours? That the King didn't spend the nights with his Queen which therefore implies that the baby might not be his - I suspect it is either the Queen Dowager or the Grand Queen Dowager. They do not want CJ to have an heir and they also want to discredit the Queen SB/SY.

    Oooh......

    HJ

    Spoiler

    How can she just barge into the King's residence like that. And she is only a concubine.

    I love that look on her face when she saw them sleeping (innocently) together.

    I wouldn't say that I hate HJ. It's more that I hate the role she is playing, a 'victim' hoping to get CJ's love (through a lie)

    Lies have ways of getting exposed.

    And it is fate that he would fall in love with So Bong/Yong even without realising she is the one who saved him in the well when they were children.

    You kinda have to wait for it because unexpectedly there would be a hot kiss scene or a hot night. LOL.

    Nothing is that predictable in this drama.

     

    I do hope that CJ finds out about HJ and her lies from HJ herself. Definitely she loves playing the part of the helpless victim who gets bullied by everyone but she is going to slip one day and expose her true face.

    I am waiting for that day.

    So far there have been sad moments and also hilarious moment within the drama.

    Not going to think too much of the ending as I am already pretty invested and will watch til the end.

     

    I hope there is an epilogue of sorts (plus we do have the backstory 10 mins episodes coming up!) and I will just take in whatver ending they throw at me.

     

    Definitely not the Scarlet Heart route......I am still hoping for a Season 2 (happier one!)

    I think it is difficult to recharacterise Hwa Jin because her whole story began on a lie. 

    She also played a part in the lie, being envious of So Yong when she was younger and wanted what So Yong had. 

    She had the King's (CJ) affection because he thought about their shared past and due to family conflicts began his relationship with So Yong on a bad footing, believing that she was just like her family. 

    Hwa Jin lost me when she said to So Bong that now she (So Bong) would know how she (Hwa Jin) feels after Dam Hyang was forced to take poison as her punishment. She knew how So Bong cherished the child and that was a low blow. (So Hwa Jin, sorry ....bye bye) 

    I wished Byeong In had been better written but now he smells of Obsession (and not the Calvin Klein version) 

    Hopefully there is some redemption for him (as he looks like he's eyeing the throne and So Bong/Yong along with it)
