The story is great so far. It's not over yet, but I'll wait to see if there is an official translation out. There is more to the story and the translations aren't telling it. First she was empress, now she's addressed as queen. No one can agree on what the ml's name is with all those spellings. I just can't.
It's because it's a great escapism especially since tv has bored me in the last couple of years. It's the same reason I read romance novels and write myself. It's a hobby.
