I LOVED IT! I LOVED IT! I love how the characters aren’t 100% good or 100% evil, like sure you could say that Helen was 100% good but not exactly, she was just obeying her mothers request and playing fool (until she became one, but then changed completely by the end). Also the fact that being empress is taken more like a curse by the end AUGH! CHEFS KISS
It’s very clear their half siblings, given they have the same dad lol, it’s probably in the translation error. I like how devoted her brother is to her, is so cute such a protective brother, and the duke and his son are so protective as well! I also think the red hair woman was played or maybe she was plot against, but it was as if she was a traitor but wasn’t, maybe that’s why her son got away in the previous life
It's likely a translation thing, specifically a mtl issue. I don't know korean so I'm not sure, but just as an example from my own native language, I know that stepbrother is "velipuoli" (brother-half) and a half brother is "puoliveli" (half-brother). At least I'm pretty sure those are the words, the last time I had a close friend where we talked used terms like this was over a decade ago.
Either way, seeing how similar the words are, I wouldn't be surprised if Korean has something similar that stumps MTLs. Don't know for sure though.





I love how she’s just a normal person obsessed with the Duke, honestly, me too girly ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ
