TheaN Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Part 1 of the OST is out. "Let′s Get it · sEODo" I think it sets the tone for this drama, quick-paced, upbeat, fun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddragon Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 This drama is enjoyable and easy to follow. There is logical progression of events, even with the flashback. So, Yi Eon and the Crown Prince were friends since childhood. I guess the reluctant inspector will be more inclined to actually do his job as a secret royal inspector as the drama unfolds. Yi Eon saw the Crown Prince die. He even knew that the medicine given to the Prince before he died was aconite, which he knew is a medicinal herb only used in the palace because it is rare. Now he knew that it can be used as poison with immediate effects, and that the former royal inspector was shot with an aconite arrow, making him think that the CP might have been murdered. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nymeria289 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Lee Jae Kyoon, the guy playing Tae Soo couldn't stop laughing this episode when Joyi was pretending to scold Ri-On as his wife. I like the actor. Good episode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downloading ep4 soon... Actually I couldn't find anything in English so I searched 습첩 and went through the various articles, stories etc. using Google translate. The TV show Yeo Yoo Man also featured a show on it. This blog was interesting. Seemed like a school research report with illustrations. https://minirecord.tistory.com/39 This show has some small and unusual (not usually seen in sageuk) elements that I'm never sure if it's the writer taking creative license. In any case, I'm really enjoying it. It's a nice change from the very scary serial murderer stuff that's been available lately. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocher22 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Yi Eon - '' I dont care what you think about the King but dont insult my wife'' He placed JY before the king... and she was a little surprised.. I like the scenes between them... Tae Seo is a cruel and clever villian.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheaN Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Finally able to see the subbed ep 3&4. Favorite scenes: The capture and escape from the bandits: "not married" "is that a knife or are you just happy to see me?" the backstory with the Crown Prince "he is my younger brother whom I cherish" and now Ra Yi Eon knows he was murdered. Check TvN's IG for more pics. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
