About the mercury thing - To me it doesn't make sense that no one was questioning King's state of mind, the guy was looking rough around his death. He even complained to HaeSoo that he felt tired and drained after taking baths (but she shook it of as him needing more sleep), so in my humble opinion, that should've raised some suspicion.

What I meant about the SoSoo ship and time skips - I wish we got a few episodes of HaeSoo realizing she is falling for So, allowing herself to trust another prince, seeing her be excited for their meetings etc. Little things we got to see with Wook.

yeah that's def a thing but at the same time Su like an idiot trusted Chaeryung blindly and never dreamed that the Damiwon could be the cause of the King's illness. Like literally only the two of them handled his bath, and Su assumed Chaeryung was safe and to be trusted (fool). So she'd have no reason to think of outside variables or problems with the bath.

I also wish we'd got a bit more of Su's growing feelings towards So during the intervening time, but I can live with what we got, if we know nighttime stargazing dates were a regular thing with them. More is always good tho.
