This week has been insane. All of a sudden it's Friday again!

I like the development in the last two episodes. I feel like there's still so much to be explored over the next 5 episodes. Why couldn't this have been a 20/24 episode drama? I continue to love our leads.

[Episode 11]Episode 11
- This was painful to watch
- I like seeing San and the Queen’s relationship growing through this; the mutual respect is fascinating
- Queen coming through and putting Princess Hwawan in her place… YAS QUEEN
- Lady Jo is terrifying; the most terrifying
- The King was giving me big Gollum vibes with this monologue… Lee Deok-hwa is amazing
- I always love scenes between San and his grandfather, it really shows the toxicity of “parental” love and expectations
- He’s always thinking about her
- I love, love love Deok-im. Her conversation with Lady Seo is both heartbreaking and empowering
- My brave, smart girl <3
- I swear, San gets locked up once a week
- Deok-ro is this drama’s Icarus
- The scene where they decode the message gives me goosebumps
- Everyone but San can read Deok-im *shakes them*
- He loves her, worries about her, but is always underestimating her
- NO. They are too cute with that puppy. Why must you hurt me, drama?
- San is living on a friggin’ THREAD
- My girl is so smart. That is all.
- I love the Queen. Period.


[Episode 12]Episode 12
- Not me screaming, “NO NOTES!” Everyone showed up for this scene, understood the assignment, did the homework. No phoning it in on this set.
- When San turned to Deok-im when she was trying remind the King, I wonder if he made the connection that that’s what she was going to tell him
- The music when Princess Hwawan gives San the seal… was amazing and I believe was performed by a majorly, if not all-female orchestra
- Lady Jo knows she’s in trouble now… I wonder how Wol-hye is going to play into this now
- I feel like Lady Jo arch ended anti-climatically
- Oh this mother-son duo. I would be more empathetic to them if they weren’t such assholes to San
- The King’s death scene… I like how it wrapped everything. Lee Deok-hwa and Junho did well in this scene, too [Spoiler (click to open)](episode death count: 2)
- Lady Park!? [Spoiler (click to open)](episode death count: 3)
- Gah, the cinematography gets me every time
- Again, still love that Deok-im has her friends. Sad that ​​Bok-yeon had to leave because of the King but I love her in her new gig
- Ahh the slight aging of Deok-im, it’s so subtle but it’s there
- Ooopfh, San… making her stand and wait for that long
- “I want you to become my family.” Ugh, my heart.
