I feel like they're just repeating themselves over and over again. Sun Woo is injured, Ah Ro has to heal him (while crying). Ah Ro's life is in danger, a man has to come save her. Also WTF at her not running away after someone SHOT AN ARROW AT HER? I would have been out of there so fast.
I am still skeeved out with them now that they're together because of the faux-incest in the past. Like they're going to get caught being lovey dovey and have to somehow explain that and it's going to be awkward.

Ban Ryu made Soo Yeon cry and now he's dead to me. Jk, I know he had a lot on his mind and didn't mean to be a jerk, but she was so excited to see him and :( I get so little of this couple I love and they can't even give me anything cute, I'm annoyed. I did like Soo Ho being a protective brother though, those 3 are my favorite characters.

I was hoping the princess would be a cooler character, but she's just like her mom and I'm annoyed by her. The queen is still the worst and I have no idea why Soo Ho is so enamored with her. It was funny how he was saying what a wonderful woman she was and her son is just side eyeing him lol.

I liked the storyline with V and his bro, I like the brother in general, especially his weird friendship with Ji Dwi's bodyguard guy.

My favorite scenes this week was probably Pah Oh trying to convince Dan Se that he was indeed 22, and then in the horse stable
