The season's initial part ends with Benedict confessing his feelings for Sophie but then immediately asking her to become his mistress, causing her to flee in hurt and disbelief.
This controversial proposal has elicited strong reactions from fans and even actress Yerin Ha, who admitted she was 'fuming' over the scene.
Luke Thompson, who plays Benedict, explained his character's actions as a pragmatic solution for the period, believing it was the only way for them to be together.
