Hi gtLmh, thanks for sharing TODAY's pictures. It must be very cold now in Seoul because aside from the jacket he's wearing he still has another one, which I guess he'll use this inside the office.

gtLmh, thanks for sharing this. So NICE that the period of his contract for these endorsements cover the term of his two-year military service. Or maybe some of them  were extended and renewed while he's on MS.

I think he looks his cutest in this episode 2 especially in the Jeong June Jae role.

 

Spoiler

In Episode 16, CY is bad richard simmons when he rescues the queen, making a grand entrance with his leaping on to the side of the wall and then slashing away the soldiers as he makes his way to the queen. How he threatens the King's uncle saying that he knows what kind of an opponent he is yet waiting outside to ensure that his suribangs actually get the antidote from the king's uncle.

Then at the palace, impatient with Ki Cheol, he pushes through the guard's kicks the king's uncle down onto the ground and feeds him the poison. That is really bad richard simmons and so audacious and impudent. Really great scene. LMH did the scene perfectly.

Love the scenes with the king and queen outside of the palace and the king is entranced with his queen and her flower crown. So sweet and cute. Gi Cheol is funny too with his derp face expressions. Action packed episode and king so happy to see CY again and the officials want CY to protect them and CY said in exasperation, you accuse me of bribery and now you want me to protect you guys. Sigh....

Good review Latifah!

Finally a kiss, one and only between Lee Min HoES E and Kim Hye Sun

Spoiler

ES realizes that her note book is tell her that "That person" is CY and that he is in danger. Deok Heong is setting a trap to kill CY. She goes to DH and pleads with him not to do it. DH wonders how she knew and she confesses it is the last pages of the notebook. He wanted her to promise to marry him and he would stop the killing. She agrees

Meanwhile the home the officials and CY are in is boarded shut by DH's soldiers but they slip away on notice to stop. Wonder why CY did not use his superpowers to blow all the doors down. Anyway, he breaks through the front door finally and there is no one around. They go to the king and the officials give the king the new royal seal. The king reinstates CY to General of the Army.

 

The mute girl brings a message to the Queen. CY notices as he scolds the king for being so complacent and going out every where so it would be difficult to protect him. Ever loyal CY even as a criminal. He accosts his aunt and she told him about the marriage. CY is stunned. He realized that she did it for him.

 

As ES is dressed in rich garments and walking to the palace, she sees CY everywhere in her imagination. She is so far gone now with her love. She knows now "That Person" is CY.

 

CY barges into the palace hall and beats back all the guards ferociously with his sword and advances to ES and DH.  He wants to take her away and spend the rest of their time together. He begs but she wants to stay to find the rest of the note book so that she can save his life again. He does a frontal attack and hugs her. Thinking what do I do with you. The jerk DH goes to his room and burns the rest of the notes.

 

The king gives CY more royal orders to recruit loyal soldiers. CY goes to the palace and gives the king's orders that the king is returning soon and CY is to prepare the palace for his return. He orders DH off the throne. Ha!

 

ES looks for her notes at night while CY quietly watches in amusement and protects her by hitting the guard effortlessly..He stops a pot from falling and breaking. She sees him. He asks her if the notes is only to protect him. Is there anything that is relevant to her safety, and she says no. She said again he is very famous and she wants to ensure he remains safe. He asks her to forget the book. He does not care. She says she wants to know on the other side of the world that he is safe and alive on his side. That will give her peace. His face does not show emotion but you can see the anguish in his eyes, the thought that he will never see her again. (Good acting LMH). The hurt in his heart.

 

CY is feverishly trying to get his team of loyal soldiers signed up while Gi Cheol and DH counter plots to speed up the wedding day. Invite the king to attend as an officiant and then have him killed on the way there by supposed robbers.

Lady Choy talks to CY about ES and asks if ES has expressed interest in staying and not going back to the future. CY despondently says that there is not even a thought of staying back and that hurts him. He would never ask her to stay but he had this tiny hope that she loves him and wants to stay. He knows she risked her life for him and knows that every day in Goryeo has been a nightmare for her. He walks away and did not hear that Lady Choi feels differently that she cares for him and might stay if he asks. Sigh...

 

ES is taken to the palace and is told the engagement and marriage would be that afternoon. Lady Choi who was with ES tries to stall but to no avail. As ES is forced to be by DH and the priest. Who walks in but CY. Gi Cheol tries to stop his with his palm freeze that has overcome CY before but CY coolly removes his hand from his chest and pushes it away. Gah! a driven CY will not be stopped by anything or anyone. He then approaches ES and tells ES that there is no choice and kisses her right in the mouth. It is about time. What is CY up to?

 

The end of episode 17

 

LMH is really hot in this episode. Driven, conflicted, anguished, furious and dangerous.Swashbuckling!

Spoiler

At this point of the drama, I think the relationships of the various characters have evolved much. Gongnim and Choi Young, for example - whether Choi Young is the Woodalchi general or a criminal, or whether Gongnim trusts him or not, they have already established faith and trust on each other, not only that between a king and his general, but between good friends. 

 

 

Also, it is good that a general like Choi Young has someone to bounce off ideas with in this game of politics, in the person of Lady Choi. They are quite a good team in plotting and counter-maneuvering against their enemies. More importantly, our general needs a confidante to help him sort things out and make him realize what really is important to him.

 

 

 

Which brings us to the relationship that has evolved most, that between Eun Soo and Choi Young! She has come to the point of sacrificing herself to save him, at least in the meantime. I thought so too, that she should just agree in marrying Deok Heung for now, then just call off the wedding. Apparently, it doesn't work that easily in Goryeo. Ooops.  But as she approached her fate, I love the way she imagines him around the palace, with that dashing smile. It is now clear who owns her heart. 

 

 

 

 

 

And Choi Young...he's also realizing who is important to him, and he's actually now acting on those feelings. I love the scene where he steps in closer and closer to her. He's the one who initiates the move, not her or just some coincidence. And of course, the kiss. The kiss! Haha. I was not thinking much during that scene, I just let it take me...that is, to greater heights! I wondered what trick he got up his sleeve when he barged in the gathering. Sneaky boy knows the perfect way to show everyone to whom Eun Soo's heart really belongs to.
