This week brings a brand new character, who’s additionally an previous character, whereas the circle of conspirators who engineered the tragedy 15 years in the past begins to interrupt aside. Enemies acknowledge enemies, and mates begin to group collectively, however the dangerous guys have their eyes peeled, and ultimately Jo Yeo Hwa (Honey Lee) could make a mistake that prices her all the things.

Warning: spoilers for episodes 7-8 under.

1. Soo Ho and Ji Sang

Park Soo Ho (Lee Jong Won) has been utilizing each potential authorized methodology to dig into Kang Pil Jik (Jo Jae Yoon). Unfortunately, the factor with authorized strategies is that they expose him to legal responsibility, and Kang Pil Jik has his eye on him in consequence. The solely motive Soo Ho isn’t lifeless in a ditch someplace is as a result of his brother is Royal Secretary Park Yoon Hak (Lee Ki Woo). But Soo Ho’s getting on Pil Jik’s nerves, so he studies it to Seok Ji Sang (Kim Sang Joong). Ji Sang’s already suspicious of Yoon Hak’s conferences with King Yi So (Heo Jung Do), although each are doing their greatest to play them off as harmless video games of go. He additionally doesn’t just like the timing of Soo Ho having been adopted into Yoon Hak’s household, proper in regards to the time the previous King died. Taking a lesson from Sun Tzu, he resolves to know his enemy. And what higher method to do this than by consuming?

Yeo Hwa is flabbergasted to see Soo Ho at her in-law’s dwelling. After her revealing her face the earlier evening, Soo Ho proceeded to tell her that, whereas he can’t cease her from going round saving individuals, he wants her to let him know when in order that he can accompany her. He performs this off as him attempting to do the correct factor in order that she doesn’t get in bother if she’s ever near being discovered (and there have been many shut calls up to now the place Soo Ho’s been helpful!). But it’s fairly apparent that Soo Ho’s in fairly deep. Yeo Hwa is simply as flustered when he exhibits up and tries to snoop on the boys consuming. Which is, after all, when Soo Ho finds her and appears simply plain delighted when she journeys and leads to his arms.

These two are the cutest. 

2. Soo Ho and Yi So

Soo Ho makes it by the assembly with Ji Sang with out arousing any suspicion and taking his brother’s warnings severely (the connection between these two adopted siblings is simply plain fantastic). Soo Ho’s by no means regarded into Ji Sang and doesn’t have him on his listing of suspects in any respect as a result of Yoon Hak’s been cautious to not contain his brother in his silent battle with probably the most harmful man within the nation. But with Soo Ho in Ji Sang’s sights, Yoon Hak has no selection however to let his brother in on the truth that he’s been pursuing a 15-year investigation towards the individuals who assassinated the king and Soo Ho’s household, the top of the king’s guard, Im Kang (Jo Seung Yeon).

Yoon Hak arranges a gathering between Yi So and Soo Ho and offers his brother the selection to hitch a battle that would spoil his life towards a person who secretly guidelines Joseon after murdering Yi So’s father. Soo Ho instantly agrees. He has no recollections of the evening his household have been murdered however wants to present them justice. And identical to that, our circle of do-gooders will get greater. Yi So tells Yoon Hak and Soo Ho that his father was poisoned to dying the identical method the Minister of Finance was. Soo Ho reveals that his prime suspect for that homicide is Oh Nan Kyeong (Seo Yi Sook), the identical lady who has subtly been exerting strain on the Dowager Queen to permit her to remain within the metropolis as an alternative of leaving for her necessary interval of mourning. Given the similarity in strategies and the truth that Nan Kyeong went out and in of the palace as she happy, it stands to motive that she might have poisoned the king’s tea with out being suspected. But there’s one other who might be able to make clear the matter: Yeo Hwa’s brother Cho Sung Hoo (Park Sung Woo), a member of the King’s Guard and the final individual to fulfill with the king. Yoon Hak’s been secretly reaching out to Yeo Hwa in case she is aware of something. And Soo Ho retains digging into Nan Kyeong. But she’s already made her transfer. And Yeo Hwa is her goal.

3. Nan Kyeong and Yeo Hwa

Yeo Hwa’s stunned to discover a message hidden in a ebook for her, telling her that somebody who has info on her brother will meet along with her in 5 days. When Nan Kyeong invitations Yeo Hwa over and begins asking her about her brother, Yeo Hwa assumes that she is that somebody. In actuality, Nan Kyeong’s right here to sow discord. Numerous it. 15 years in the past, she was instrumental to Ji Sang eliminating the previous king, however her reward for it was marriage to an abusive nutcase, the Minister of Finance. Ji Sang isn’t happy that she removed her husband and is now attempting to current herself as a virtuous widow, so he’s attempting to implement each Confucian ultimate there’s to get her despatched out of town to mourn for the remainder of her life AKA out of sight, out of thoughts. And Nan Kyeong isn’t keen to go willingly.

In what will probably be devastating information for Ji Sang’s affected person spouse, Yoo Geum Ok (Kim Mi Kyung), Ji Sang and Nan Kyeong seem to have had a fairly lengthy affair whereas they have been busy killing the king. And Nan Kyeong has all of the blackmail materials she must sow discord in his family. She begins by sowing seeds in Yeo Hwa that her brother was no strange member of the King’s Guard. Yeo Hwa remembers that the final time she noticed him was when he ran out in the course of the evening when it wasn’t his shift. Nan Kyeong’s concept that he was a member of the king’s internal circle is sensible. Nan Kyeong insinuates that Ji Sang knew and didn’t inform Yeo Hwa. An earnest Yeo Hwa asks Ji Sang if he’s heard nothing about her brother, and Ji Sang brushes her off. But later that evening, he reminisces in regards to the day he killed him and took the very last thing the king gave (his seal) from Yeo Hwa’s brother’s physique. Oh no.

4. Seok Jeong and Geum Ok

The thriller man we noticed in final week’s preview has turned up within the metropolis. Mixing English with Korean and promoting a wide range of items, he’s an instantaneous hit. But his return spells a number of bother as a result of that is Seok Jong (Oh Eui Sik), Yeo Hwa’s supposedly lifeless husband. And it seems that even he didn’t know that he was lifeless.

Seok Jeong is bewildered to seek out out that he’s not solely buried but in addition married upon returning to town. He retains his identification a secret, but it surely’s clear that he loves his mom and needs he might converse along with her. Geum Ok catches sight of him at a market and races round, all propriety forgotten, considering that he’s nonetheless alive. It seems that Ji Sang has been mendacity to his spouse for 15 years. Seok Jeong by no means died in a searching accident. He wished to marry an Englishwoman, and his father refused, so Seok Jeong left the household. Rather than be trustworthy and even reveal why his son left, Ji Sang lied to his spouse that he died. This goes to be so dangerous when she finds out.

Seok Jeong is taken with Yeo Hwa however runs into her a couple of occasions in different guises, reminiscent of when she’s with Soo Ho. It’s hilarious as a result of a part of him is so confused that his spouse is that this gorgeous, and the opposite half has seen her as Soo Ho’s supposed lover (which he retains denying) and hasn’t acknowledged her.

5. Yeon Sun and Yoon Hak

The sluggish burn between these two is probably the most lovely factor. Yoon Hak clearly adores her, and whereas Yeon Sun (Park Se Hyun) clearly feels one thing, she additionally is aware of that she has extra to lose. When Soo Ho’s fan is discovered within the household’s shrine by Geum Ok, Yeo Hwa practically loses her head as a result of Geum Ok assumes she’s been assembly a person in secret, till Yeon Sun makes up a narrative about it being Yoon Hak’s. Suspicious, Geum Ok drags Yeon Sun to Yoon Hak to substantiate the story. He instantly does however stops when Geum Ok thanks him for rescuing a servant and tells him not to take action sooner or later as a result of it might harm her status being that they’re of various lessons.

It’s like a slap within the face to each of them as they understand how big the hole of their stations are, however Yoon Hak refuses to be deterred and says he’d do it once more if he needed to and that he mainly by no means noticed her as something lower than an equal. That shuts Geum Ok up, and Yeon Sun is totally in love.

6. Yeo Hwa and Yoon Hak

We come full circle on the finish when Yoon Hak reaches out to Yeo Hwa to ask about her brother. He exhibits up and thinks that it’s Yeo Hwa chatting with him from behind a curtain, however she exhibits up behind him in disguise and places a sword to his neck asking him for what he is aware of. Right then, Soo Ho materializes to defend his huge brother and places his sword to Yeo Hwa’s neck. They each freeze upon realizing that it’s one another. And Yoon Hak’s about to seek out out simply who the vigilante on the streets and the lady whom his brother’s been obsessing over is!

This present is a lot enjoyable! There’s such an incredible stability of humor and motion with the heavier beats on girls’s lack of company and the monsters it might probably create. Nan Kyeong might have been a really totally different individual if she’d gotten the prospect. But her mom’s affair doomed her to a decrease social class and no alternatives. Her solely method up in life was to make use of males, and that’s what she’s executed as a result of that’s what society taught her. She makes for an incredible foil to Jang So Woon (Yoon Sa Bong), who’s been doing a incredible job as a thriving feminine entrepreneur right here and as top-of-the-line mates Yeo Hwa might ask for. While our circle of schemers on the facet of fine is about to get greater, the baddies have by no means been extra fractured. But we’ve 4 extra episodes to see them try to throw roadblocks. Let’s see the place subsequent week takes us! Hopefully it’s extra of this!
