    I think Jang Hyun was right to tell her to go there. Hong Taiji’s men are the ones at Ganghwa. They are strict and disciplined. The Mongols are the ones terrorizing and stealing from the locals.

      Hong Taiji’s troops are about to capture the rest of the royal family, which will make Injo to capitulate and accept the humiliating demands of Qing. Crown Prince Sohyeon and his brother Prince Bongrim will become hostages for 8 years, while Joseon will remain a vassal to Qing until 1894. It is true that our heroine has better chance of survival if she encounters the disciplined Qing troops, but she should have gone to Jeju instead. But then there will be no drama for us to watch.

      Now that Jang Hyun has met CP Sohyeon, a lot of events are set in motion. Their first meeting was not very promising. I am curious what kind if dynamic will develop between them.

        She is going to be fine. Hong Taiji just wants to break the alliance between Ming and Joseon, and then he’ll be gone.
        CP So-hyeon didn’t become the most promising member of the royal family until he returned from Qing. We can see why the progressive-minded Jang Hyun was blamed for corrupting the CP.

          Does that mean that Jang Hyun will follow the CP as a hostage too?

            I hope they’ll all go to Qing with him unless there is another time jump like this week’s episodes.
