Synopsis

Clara Baker helps Prince Ethan reach the imperial throne in her first life, but her political innocence leaves her defeated, discarded, and killed in prison. Reborn ten years earlier, she replaces devotion with preparation: studying dance and seduction, running a tavern, and building a private network of power. This time she intends to command the prince's heart without surrendering her own and claim the empress's crown herself.

Episode 1 might make you go "what IS this lunatic" and bail. He's my favorite short-drama actor and even I hesitated. Please stay with it!! The acting is unreal, the way his eyes go, the way he smiles, each one gets me >_<

My favorite of his modern-set work and honestly my favorite short drama full stop. You get the complete unhinged-psycho performance, and I'd say his acting leveled up here. If you're working through his filmography, this is the one.

The plot is hard to follow and never really comes together. With all the flashbacks and dream sequences, the pacing has no tension at all…
