both of them are insane and hot

fl: wang hai min
this drama is so so good!! and the chemistry is chemistrying!! the kisses were real and there were plenty of intimacy scenes that the actors did a great job at conveying intense passion. the fl is a strong confident total b*tch who isn't afraid to go after her man and the ml is a red/black flag but never directed toward her. he's obsessed and possessive and as the story goes on you realize oh okay he's actually just insane. like during her first life he loses his mind after her death and during her dreams you get to see how much he did for her and what he was really like behind the scenes because (spoiler below). the dynamic between the ml and fl is 100% brat + indulgent brat tamer. he lets her get away with acting absurdly in a way no other concubine can act. he pretends to set boundaries and punishments but they're all straw obstacles meant for public appearances and he gives her loopholes to exploit. the emperor never touches any other concubine during the drama. they're all there for political reasons and at the end he ends up with her as his one and only. also, despite how entitled and obnoxious the fl can be toward the other concubines, she only acts that way toward those who wronged her in her previous life. she's loyal and caring toward her friend and in her first life she was way too good to her sister who just wanted to use her to get into the palace. the revenge plot is complete and the ending is happy and satisfying.

spoilers!!
because to her face he posed as a gentleman because she likes gentlemen he played the part of a good and just emperor who cares for the people when in reality he only cared about her and if she didn't like chivalrous men he'd pretend to be whatever she liked. at first she was a little hesitant after she realized he's actually not a good man, but she wasn't ever scared or reproachful she actually loved that about him and fully accepted his craziness because he did it all for her. they're both ride or dies for each other and i feel like they both wouldn't have a problem with the idea of braiding their hair together to make an inseparable knotted rope.

Spicy with good looking ML but FL irritated me

I had this drama in my watchlist but only yesterday remembered to watch it because I was missing Zhou Ling Feng's acting. I watched Bend Over a few months ago so I had some expectations with this drama. Unfortunately they were not met. I prefer Bend Over.

What I liked:
1. ML characterisation - He was mysterious from the get go. I wasn't sure whether he had been reborn too when FL thought of it.
2. Romance - Their love language was physical touch. Lotsa kisses. They couldn't get away from each other. Many forms of seduction between them.
3. Zhou Ling Feng - He was good in his role. Insanely in love / lust and the same thing adorable (I blame his baby faced).
4. Styling - I liked their outfits especially when both were wearing emerald green. I also liked the outfits worn by the concubines.
5. Dream - I enjoyed the dream sequences as they provided insights towards ML's characterisation.

What I disliked:
1. FL characterisation - Gosh her character wasn't interesting when she was without ML. So clingy and weak. Her moments with other love rivals were too little.
2. Wang Hai Min - I didn't like her acting her. She looked like she was going to cry all the time and that baby voice irritated me.
3. Antagonists- I didn't like FL's sister and that girl who aspired to be a concubine.
