I really hope so. This is why I cling on to the delusion that GJ would never touch YH lol after all the scheming and hurt she's caused, killing Eun and his wifey + having Soo accidentally ALMOST poison CP leading to Lady Oh 's death, it just doesn't seem right to me that So never finds out and she gets away with it. 

Hi @q4q4! I am trying to also think that this won't happen - but they go on to have 5 kids together - I've been praying that they are all adopted, but seeing how 'aggressive' she is with So, this might be, like you rightly observed, a delusion. I'll need a strong drink to get over their wedding. I can't even... I'm getting an instant headache just thinking about it.

Ep17 subs are finally done. This is the worst of all the episodes yet, with so much deviation in terms of missing scenes, sequence... you name it, which took a good 6 hours to untangle the mess, and 2 hours or so to fill in the missing scenes with @ruizaio's marvellous translations. Truly cannot express my gratitude to @ruizaio enough... particularly for your patience and generosity to us, when so many gapping blanks would not have been filled otherwise.

 

Additional scenes in SBS version:

1. A longer version of So and Soo's conversation about his kingly ambitions. [00:10 to 01:00], [1:43 to 1:46]

2. Queen Yoo rushing to Yo's quarters saying So has attacked the palace [3:59 to 4:08]

3. During Yo's death scene, his last thoughts after he collapses are "I was only... trying to survive.", unlike the International version which has him literally saying it to Soo.

4. A longer scene of So going through the decree regarding Seokyung with Baek Ah beside him before being alerted that Soo has been waiting for him [18:03 to 19:49]

5. Longer scene of the dinner with So, Soo and Baek Ah, which better reflects how So feels about both of them - family. [20:01 to 21:11]

6. A detailed scene of So and Soo's conversation after he wakes up from a nightmare, ending with her telling him the story of Little Red Riding Hood as he slept. [21:59 to 24:23]

7. Slight dialogue change between Soo and Woo Hee where she realises how naive she was after So became king [25:06 to 25:13]

8. Longer scene between Baek Ah and Woo Hee, with PYG's voiceover which reminds her over and over again of who she is and the danger Baek Ah would be in if their connection is known [32:46 to 33:45]

9. So expressing his sadness to Soo over the change in people he loves after he became king - General Park, Baek Ah, Ji Mong, even Jung and his mother. [36:23 to 37:26]

10. Jung's audience with So before departing with the Chunju clan [39:57 to 41:15]

11. Woo Hee and Soo's dialogue in which the former speaks of her fear of repercussions for what she had done [41:34 to 42:45]

 

 

Fixed subs:

1. Wook's demands from the court officials [54:46 to 55:26]

 

 

Additional scenes in International version:

1. Soo supervising Damiwon after her return. Chae Ryung passes Jung's message to her that if she should wish to leave the palace, he has the means to help her do so.

2. Longer scene of Yo being haunted - trying to light up the lamp, finding the two arrows he used to kill Eun - then collapsing of a heart attack after seeing the apparition of Taejo. 

3. Previous scene intercuts directly to So and Baek Ah, masked, secretly infiltrating and incapacitating the soldiers, then escaping, which indicates that Yo's haunting was actually their doing.

4. This is followed by Wook discovering Yo on the floor, upon which we hear his thoughts that this is his chance to become king, which we were not privy to in Ep16 SBS version.

5. Beginning of SBS scene (Soo and So talking about him becoming king) becomes a flashback here. Soo warns Chae Ryung not to go outside even if there is a commotion, then is summoned to serve tea to the king.

6. During Yo's death scene, he tells Soo that he was only trying to survive.

7. Wook's conversation with Yeon Hwa and Queen Hwangbo when he finds out his sister opened the palace gates for So. Queen Hwangbo affirms that she gave the instructions to do so. When Wook observes that she finally decided to abandon her expectations of him, she chillingly counters that the game has changed, and that she is not only Wook's mother but Yeon Hwa's as well.

8. Soo being tended to by palace maids when she wakes up, and walking as fast as she could to shake them off.

9. Different dialogue between Soo and Woo Hee leading to the topic that the position of queen is yet unfilled.

10. When General Park takes his leave of Gwangjong, he asks that he be a good king so that he has a lot to boast to King Taejo when he meets him in the afterlife.

11. Queen Yoo asks Jung to investigate further into what happened the day Yo died and the circumstances leading to So's ascent to the throne. She suspects Soo to be a part of it since she was there when Yo died.

12. At the prayer tower, Jung asks if she remembers what he instructed Chae Ryung to tell her about having a way out of the palace.

13. Preview includes Chae Ryung being beaten to death, and Soo confronting So about it

Yeah I hear you, historically it would be unavoidable.. I have a feeling the only way the scheming snake could get him to blow the candle out would be if she drugged him first. I wouldn't be surprised. Ugh

Was there really no other woman from the Hwangbo clan that he could have married??? Why her ?? Why? She's actually the scariest character to me - as much as I deeply despise Wook, Jung, Won and Yo-Yoo couple, she frightens me the most - Woman with no sense of loyalty, throws people away when it's convenient for her...

I second that finally, Lee Jun Ki has ascended the throne. Sbs, don't you dare not give him any awards. Not just the top 10 stars awards, but the best actor, best couple, and the netizen awards. Give him all those awards he deserves

 

Yes, yes, let our king win them all

I believe there is hope, people.... If Namoo would even think of holding a final episode screening event for the fans, I.am.sure the ending will be a pleasant one. You wouldn't want to gather a mass of people who might go berserk at the end of an event, would you?

 

Maybe they bring therapist with them? You know, just in case

THANK YOUUUUUUUUU!!! I DONT DREAD EP18 AS MUCH NOW #famouslastwords

Why is it that every time WS-HS had a chance to have a cute romantic date, there has to be something that's holding them back from enjoying it fully? First it was the boat date. They couldn't fully enjoy themselves because each of them know they are holding back some information/feelings. This time the lantern festival. We don't know yet what will be the bomb dropped there, but HS is looking sad. And I'm sad too. I guess I shouldn't be greedy and just accept and live with stargazing dates only.

And why can't WS go out of the palace freely as KG? Why is he being so reserved about wandering around his kingdom? A good king should go into town and get in touch with his subjects to know exactly how to help them. I mean it's not like he cannot defend himself... If it is other people, I understand how people would want to assassinate the king in order to seize the throne? But a WS? Not that easy to kill him. If he were going to change into the same conventional king, and be imprisoned by rules and protocols, I'd rather him not be king at all. Sorry, just had to rant about this unimportant detail that bothered me.

Queen SMS caused Lady Oh’s miscarriage —>  her sons died  (2nd Prince and Yo)

Queen SMS did not love Wang So —> she did not receive love from King Taejo 

Yo used HS as a puppet —> he became a puppet for his mother 

Won poisoned CP —> I think Won will be sentenced to death with poison (hopefully)

So I hope that what she did will come back to her in a similar manner or worse. I hope someone will reveal her scheme just like how she revealed Wang Eun's and Soon Deok's hiding place.

LOL! To be fair to all of us, they also need to send a therapist (therapists ??) to this thread - this drama pushes us to the brink of  mental nuclear meltdowns every week -

i don't know if i should be happy or sad for this ...as much as i'm looking forward  to the mask scene ,it doesn't seem as though it will be a completely happy one....  on another note,  i fear for JM life ...WS/GJ ...is  extremely   capable of going  out of character if he is to know that JM had ....just the slightest  audacity of suggesting such a thing to HS ....will he end up playing  the role of that enuch that die  (and that the 4 kill) in BBX ....i'm extremely curious...

Hi @ktcjdrama! I thought about that too, but I noticed too that in all the sageuks that I've watched, the king never goes out of the palace freely, except on ceremony or travelling to carry out ancestral rites... Whenever the king goes out of the palace as in Dong Yi, Yi San, Moon embracing the Sun, Jang Ok Jung Live in Love and more recently Flower in the Prison, he always goes in disguise with few/no guards...

The moment you realise that your brain has checked out the door.... when I read "Scarlet Pimpernel Project" and did a double-take, wondering who needed rescuing from the guillotine. Perhaps Ji Mong, since he had the audacity to tell Soo to give up the idea of marriage to So?

They need to record LJG's self healing tape. So he can sooth us with his voice

I imagine something like this:

 

This is only a drama.

There is no need to get hurt

You are a strong, confident viewer

You will not get hurt

Release your anger

Forgive everyone in the drama

Forgive yourself

Everything will be alright

 

OMG, I start to lose my mind
