I was talking about It's Okay, That's Love but That winter the wind blows also features close up scenes. 

Oh, I forgot about IOTL was also directed by Kim Kyu Tae. I think this will be a lesson to Mr. Kim Kyu Tae for not taking too much close up scenes for a drama because not every actors and actresses can express their emotions expressively in close up scenes. But I think these close up scenes only appear in the beginning part of this drama, don't they? Lately, I have not found excessive close up scenes *CMIIW*

if its true and because of WW or YH or Won did actually make HS miscarriage and the saddest part is in BBJX RX can't ever again pregnant because of the miscarriage and also her body is really weak...

IF MLSHR follow that path not even HS can save all those people.. this one will make WS gone mad... hurting the woman he love and killed his child would make any man angry but WS??? it will be a hell for whoever cause that.. 

i totally can see why WS will be a cruel person if the writer follow this path...

 

Oh please... I'm afraid about that miscarriage story nor WS's jealousy because of WW... I dislike that parts from original story, so please don't make sadden with that plots please....

Make that HS miscarriage as WS catalyst to be cruel, that's same ways to kill HS alive too, because he turned like that because of her, that can make her more stressfull...

Looking back 

Spoiler

 

BOTH times she understood him. BOTH times she knew it's not something he wants but circumstances forced him.

But THIS time she didn't walk away to let him grieve in private. THIS time she gave him solace and comfort. To hold him when he needs it. 

I love that many a times they have an understanding and intuitively knowing what the other needs. Both their conversations and their silent communication I heart 

Screenshots from this fmv (a very long one of all their moments ep1 to11) see in Spoiler

Actually, to be very honest I was not pleased with the close-up scenes between Hae Soo and Wook at Episode 13 where Hae Soo decided to part with Wang Wook. The scene where Hae Soo said it was not easy to get back her heart to Wook. That scene feature a close-up scenes on Hae Soo's facial features. I am sorry if I offend any IU's fans. While IU is great on emotional scenes, on other scenes I don't quite get what she is trying to convey from her facial features. I dont get what she wants me to feel. That scene, a close up just show Hae Soo wide eyed staring at Wook. It does not really confirms or make it clear to me whether she is really parting with Wook. I only knew they part when Wang Wook turn a cold shoulder and left Hae Soo. There was another scenes with Hae Soo and Wook at the lake, the phrase "do you missed me?". The close up just make the more focus on her facial features but I don't get it what Hae Soo is trying to convey. I have to read more into her actions to get it. Same for Woo Hee scenes, her vocalization is not bad but her facial expressions a bit stiff but it will be fine if it is watch from far. Im sorry if I offend Seohyun's fans. These are some examples in the recent episodes. Since some of the casts are new or do not have much experiences in acting, I do not have high expectations. I try not to be nit-picky or bothered too much because i'm more focusing on the plot. I hope that will be the case with the upcoming episodes. The drama just keep getting better and better. But im only being very honest because i am answering your question. Haha! But I still love this drama!!!

and in a blink of an eye, we have not only reached 1000 but surpass it already.

amazing! *applauds* we all deserve a good applauds!

[Lady_Lara]

I'm so anticipating for a boat scene! Hae Soo is so beautiful there! Finally she will be dressed as a noble girl!!:) and she will kiss Wang So!

Scarlet Heart Ryeo Episode 12 & 13 Recap –

4th Prince gets even more heroic while 8^th Prince goes further to the dark side!! Honestly, I love both of their trajectories and how each actor is fleshing out his respective role. I so adore seeing 4^th Prince being all selfless, not only for Hae-Soo but in protecting the king and the Crown Prince without any thought to his own position. He is really a relationship driven person; he’s only interested in gaining someone’s heart not an empty seat, not even power.

However, Hae-Soo’s love for him was unchanged. She was ready to quietly love him from a distance – possibly forever. Which to be fair, is really consistent with Hae-Soo’s personality so far. She’s far from self-seeking. Hae-Soo has never asked for anyone to do, be or risk anything for her. She’s waited for 8^th Prince for a looong time. And she’s trusted in him no matter what. But 8^th Prince didn’t reciprocate that same trust. He tested her loyalty to him (to see if she’d tell anyone of his and 3^rd Prince’s coup) when she had never done that to him. Not only that, but he’d used her to get at 4^th Prince – even after knowing how guilty she felt about causing Court Lady Oh’s death. That was just cruel.

I’m definitely excited now for what’s in-store for Hae-Soo and 4^th Prince. So far, most of the romantic feelings have been on 4^th Prince’s side. I’d love to see Hae-Soo’s heart finally opening up to him. I’d also love to see her come out of the constant depression. She used to smile a lot but now she’s mostly exhausted and sad. Of course, she lost her best friend, was tortured, and has terrible visions of the future – that would make most people depressed. But she’s also got a couple hot princes vying for her love. Don’t forget to count your blessings, Hae-Soo!

Thank-you for this post @Yippeuni I love the part when it !entiom HS is out to gain a person's heart not a throne. I love that the most of WS. He values the people he trust and the people who cares for him.

Shouldn't we tell Junki that our thread has reached 1000 pages? But, I don't think he'll be able to see it though 

Hee for what's worth I commented on his IG thanking him for taking up the role of WS and casually mentioning Soompi forum exceeded 20k post and the drama is really one of the most talked about internationally. He may or may not read it but I just wanted to mention it. @sunshinefate

From Baidu (Episode 14): 解树脱去了侍女的衣裳，重返茶美院。她与昭的感情却是剪不断，理还乱。不仅是昭，解树自己都不知道应当如何对待昭执着的爱恋。出于报复心理，昭决定迎娶王的女儿。武自然为昭愿做驸马欣喜，可昭和解树这对怨侣却心事重重。武虽在战功上得父王赏识，可在治国上仍有所欠缺，时常感觉力不从心。旭正是要借此，逼迫武禅位，让他名正言顺的登基。不过他的做法没有得到母亲的支持，皇甫氏看出他是为了解树才会做出这种大逆不道之事。而武将要再次经历阴谋造反。

[...] In summary, the above said So agreed to marry 2nd King's daughter out of the mindset of revenge (or is it disappointment)? [...]

 

About So getting married in E14

ETA after airing of episode: I was wrong, and my hopes were dashed after all.

Original post:

I am 90% hopeful that, while So may come very close to marrying Mu's daughter in E14, in the end he will NOT go through with it.

 

Below you can see all the princes in E05. Look carefully at their hairstyle:

Wearing their hair in a topknot, and thus MARRIED: (from left to right) 8th, 3rd, 9th

No topknot, and thus NOT MARRIED: (from left to right) 14th, 13th, 4th, 10th

 

The moment when 10th's hairstyle becomes a topknot: on his wedding day (regardless of consummation). The princes in E09:

With topknot, MARRIED: (from left to right) 3rd, 9th, 8th, Crown Prince, and now also 10th 

With no topknot, NOT MARRIED: (from left to right) 4th, 14th, 13th 

10th Prince already has his hair up in a topknot on his wedding day!

Spoiler

 

In the preview for E14, we see this:

Thought it was a wedding scene? (with the bride wearing traditional red, and a married woman's hairstyle)

BUT 4th Prince still has his hair down! Ergo, unlike 10th Prince (see above), 4th should not actually be getting married here & now. Not if there's any consistency at all in this drama (re: men's proper hairstyles).

Spoiler

Would the King give his daughter to 4th as a concubine only, because she is still so young, with no expectation of consummating the marriage? I don't know, but I'm more inclined to assume that if anything, it would have to be a proper wedding, or nothing at all.

I'm aware that, in historical records, a daughter of Mu's is named as Gwangjong's consort. But it's not like this drama has ever proven itself a slave to actual history--not in any shape or form. (I mean, Wang So's scar, anyone? And how about the Hae Soo character herself?) They're really working that "fictional approach to history" angle that they've added in their disclaimer. Thus, I'm hopeful that the writer has taken some inspiration from this particular recorded fact to create conflict in the drama, but she will solve it quickly through some creative blurring of history--so as to not completely outrage SoSoo shippers.

 

My guess: this incident with the King's little daughter is meant to serve as Hae Soo's wakeup call: her awakening to her long-held (and stubbornly ignored) feelings for 4th Prince.

Spoiler

So deep in thought... so desolated?

Whether HS approaches 4th herself to make him reconsider, or he changes his mind alone, Wang So should NOT take a wife in E14-15--because his hairstyle doesn't change to that of a married man.

 

At the very end of Mu's reign, in E15 (clearly after the scene in the throne room):

Still no topknot for 4th Prince.

Spoiler

Sure, in that particular scene, 3rd has his hair down as well, Tarzan-style--but consider that he's been living in hiding, likely on the rough. Not much interest in grooming under the circumstances, one would suppose.

Once 3rd returns to the Palace, he resumes his proper hairstyle:

Whereas even by the time when 4th Prince is leading the rebellion against 3rd, he's STILL not styled like a married man:

 

Honestly, peeps, relax about 4th Prince marital status in the immediate future!

Considering how careful the K-drama has been to not really showcase the multi-wife/multi-concubine system in all its goriest details (from which the C-drama didn't shrank at all), I seriously doubt that SHR will deal such a devastating blow to the long-anticipated & still nascent SoSoo ship by changing 4th's marital status, at this particularly vulnerable moment. Otherwise, it might well kill that ship dead before it ever sails, considering Hae Soo's modern sensibilities and considering this comes at a moment when she's not fully committed to 4th yet.

Spoiler

By contrast: by the time 4th actually marries Yeonhwa, Hae Soo will be too deeply entangled with 4th, plus he'll be doing it for her, so I believe she won't leave him just for that. Though I can't imagine it'll be an easy thing for her to deal with either way.

Woaaa, be careful, chingu lol. I'm afraid your post will be caught by snsd fans lol though I feel the same way. I know woohee is not a naturally born actress since she is a girlgroup member, however, her acting is really not strong. Thankfully her scenes are covered by nam joo hyuk. He is quite good as the 13th prince. It's okay, I think our posts will be piled up by the other members' posts I also love this drama. Really really love it!

Yes, he love to cook. Dont we all love this guy? Jack of all trade.

Spoiler

before becoming an actor, he trained to be a chef. He also sings, his voice is nice but i don't really dig his genre. but he can sing Jason Mraz  songs quite accurately which is amazing cause he can't speak english and the lyrics are really fast. 

I really hope he gets to go on 3 meals a day cause NJH is hosting the latest season.

I also posted 2 comments on 2 his IG posts that told him that his actings was really flawless and not to be bothered by the ratings because ML was really popular internationally. After posting my comment, 1 minute later when I checked my comment's whereabout. It was not found easily lol. It was piled up by the other comments. He might not read my comment lol

[Lady_Lara]

@Adnana I also think that Wang So marries Yean Hwa after Hae So death or Hae Soo will insist on him marrying Yean Hwa to get a throne and stop bloodshed.

Every beat of my heart tells me that this drama deserves to be well rewarded and if that will happen will be

 

 

 

but every nerve in my brain reminds me of the low rating and if that's not gonna happen I want to say to cast and crew

 

 

 

How do the awards work? Are they based on popularity or something? ( This is something I was always curious for tbh)
