I honestly don't know how there is going to be a romance between the emperor and queen. I am reading the raws because I was curious to see how they would develop the relationship but even to ch 48 there is no change in the relationship, no love or like, just business partners basically still. I have a hard time believing they can love each other.
I don't think it is that weird that kyungsoo kept coming back to Yule because even in real life, it takes a lot of effort to break off from a toxic and abusive relationship. People tend to go back to abusive relationship even tho they know it is not going to end well and especially for kyungsoo because he believed he can not be happy for the rest of his life and thought he had to deal with being miserable.
Also Yule seemed to be engraved into kyungsoo. Like kyungsoo can not ever forget him because of the love and hate that is mixed together. So I didn't find it that weird that when kyungsoo didn't leave Yule.
I am okay with Ao. Sure he lied but compared to kou, his sin is minor. Kou is not a victim and the fact that they made him look like the victim is what makes me angry.
Plus, I have a hard time believing kou will not cheat again. He has such a weak will that I feel like it will happen again. And ao has to deal with it all over again and I don't really like that.
I LOVE the art and I am actually okay with the story but WHY is Jan suddenly a victim?! Like pray justifies Jan actions and simply dismissed it as a mistake but Jan acted very selfish and weak. Jamil had every right to be angry. I wish during their time apart Jan really thought through his actions instead of having sex with pray.
Plus I absolutely love Jamil hence I come to dislike pray and Jan. I believe Jamil deserves better.
