He was wrong for leaving her in the first place. Ji Un however tells her that no matter what she says, he will protect her and stay by her side now. Ji Un walks up to her and grabs her in an embrace.ĭam-I leans into the embrace for a few moments before pushing him away, asking him to leave because he cannot be here. When Dam-I sees him, recollections of their time together flood her memories and she smiles in tears. He happens to see her entering their flower garden/hideout, and follows after her. Soon after, Ji Un arrives at the palace with no regard for his own safety as he is only worried for Hwi, having heard about her dethronement. Nonetheless, from the perspective of the plot, I think it makes sense that actually more people knew about her secret than she knew and that they were all trying to protect her or keeping her safe in their own ways. I had only wished that the King told Dam-I that he knew her secret so that she hadn’t needed to live in fear for the past 15 years. Dam-I asks if he would have made the same decision (to let her be killed at birth) but he does not answer. He found out on the day the former Crown Princess died as he overheard their conversation. Our first big reveal of the episode is when the King chooses to dethrone the Crown Prince, not because Dam-I went against a royal relative but because he always knew she was a girl and wants her to live her own life now. Overall, I thought the episode was bittersweet and left me with a sort of heaviness hanging over me, knowing that episode 13 is going to be sad. This is by far, one of my favourite episodes because of the sheer number of reveals, the execution of scenes and also the tension.
