What to expect from Perfect Crown episode 10?

Episode 10 of Perfect Crown seems to be another emotional ride for viewers as I-an will express his disappointment after Hui-ju suggested getting divorced. He will question whether she trusts him or not, as her actions reflect that she thought I-an won’t be able to protect them.

However, the next part in the preview then hints at Hui-ju going back to her husband. She loves him a lot and can be heard saying, “I’ll be on your side,” which also hints that she might finally express her true feelings to him.

Not to forget, Yi-rang might finally face some hard times as she deserves. Lord Inpyeong will be back to settle the score, but it seems like he doesn’t have much to do when I-an decides to destroy everyone who thinks of ruining his relationship with Hui-ju or hurting her.

Episode 9 featured one of the most heartbreaking moments at the end when Hui-ju had to ask for a divorce. She hugged I-an and mentioned they should part ways. This was the result of the contract marriage leak, which has led everyone to hate the newlywed royal couple and question their sincerity.
