Real eye candy. Plot is pretty much given away from the start, but it's presented so well I just didn't care. Great show and I'm definitely going to binge it again asap.
I do have a question about the finale.

Well, I like how she looks and really like her personality too.Cheeky little troublemaker 😁, but as the say: "different strokes" ... etc

It's odd because it kinda gave away the ending. But jumped from her "being an ideal candidate" to "...navigating their relationship" I'm like wth happened? was it the case like he goes "I chose you" she goes "oh thank god, I'm new in town...you look ... 🥺 dreamy..." He goes "alright then; that's settled.let's take on your father. He clearly sent you away to hide something"

I'm sure that's not how it goes down. The cast is great though. Actually looking forward to it.

I'll give it a go when it's out. Although synopsis has an odd feel about it.

FL is having premonitions that her family will be accused of treason and executed because of ML. ML is investigating the massacre of his family the blame-trail seems to lead to FL's family. In the process of trying to change scenarios from her dream she acts out of character thus making ML more suspicious etc.
So it's kinda understandable that the romance could be a bit dry because it's absolutely sipping of suspicion. But I thought it was alright.

Obviously FL's family isn't responsible for it. And they will try to figure out who is. There will be a few ups and downs making her premonitions almost come true.

I remember it being a great show.Bad part for me was very soft crown prince and ML turning very soft as well hence it's not my 10. Cool part was that sidekicks also had kids in the end.
But if you are completely lost try watching first 2 EPs again (could be a bit of the 3rd I don't remember) after those 2 story is pretty much predictable but done very well.

Lol I wasn't planning to watch it now,but I think I will 😀 Cheers

Maybe needed to be in the right mood for it.
But casting is great, i think everyone really fits their part.

Interesting. it was same story with wetv. but they "un-expressed" an episode today, so i guess they're back to normal.

Oh, it's grand. I was not trying to change your mind.

Originally it was just for posterity sake that blaming big girls for husbands' leaving them doesn't feature in this show. Although, now it transpires that if this issue is too close to home some scenes might be uncomfortable to watch.

Great discussion. Thanks.

I almost dropped it coz it was making f'all sense during preliminary viewing. Went back to e1 and watched carefully, then everything fell into place.
Turned out to be a pretty good show especially towards the end.

For whatever reason you think his phrase "it's your problem" refers to her husband leaving her because of her shortcomings:

>> It was "her problem", according to ML (and no1 objected) because
>> she didn't look "ravishingly beautiful and charming" like mistress did.

It really means the obvious : the others had nothing to do with it, and they owed her nothing.

So when you say:
>> Who writes, directs and produces garbage like this

Like, he didn't insult her, didn't kick her. So yeah I'm at a loss. I've no idea how you expect ML to show compassion.

No matter how sad her story is - it's her sad story and her problem.
Whatever happened to her gives her no right to take innocent peoples lives as therapy.

And that's what ML said.

So I'm not sure what you mean by showing compassion, because given the circumstances following it up with a hug would look a bit weird.

ah yeah i see where you're going. well it really created a bit of an issue for me. like, i can see v2's reasons why she turned out this way. now the problem is how did v1 turn out this way and why is there such a strong bond between the two. it's not important in the grand scheme of things but yeah i think i'll be brooding over it for a bit.

in any case fan wei was excellent, i'd say the scariest bit was that so much evil was wrqpped in such a small fabulous package :D

I read a synopsis awhile ago thought it would not be for me. but it actually looks pretty good.

In fairness I was glad to see 'her' return. And the 'resurrected' version really turned it up a notch 😀

haha. yeah there are bits like that (rock & paper magic :D)
although it's not a parody it's straight up good show.
whole cast is exceptional.

Second time around ... Zhilan's situation really pisses me off. but e12 farewell to Qi Meng.. beautiful

Thanks for bringing it up I missed it. but yeah i guess they hope for season 2.
Like there's some secret agent. Probably influential guy but not sure how could she be so familiar. Obviously he/she lived there for a very long time. But there was not a lot of her interactions shown so who knows.

Brilliant show. Watched it pretty much in one go.

Well EY had only My Journey to You that year. Although, I liked it, it's definitely not SOKP or TTEOM. As I understand it "Hidden Love" was what propelled ZLS that year. But I only watch costume dramas so I don't know if how good it is.

Current version of v-pulse 2024 report is prepared in October and covers data between October2023 & October2024 (before eastern games and pearl girl came out) so it's normal that you won't see her there either. In any case I don't like v-pulse.

Because the link I gave is for year 2023. And I was going to stop my response there.

Then as I said "For a laugh I'll ask chatgpt" at the time (which was November 2024)I had access to an enterprise version of it so that's there numbers came from.
Public versions were giving slightly different names and no reasons, but EY and ZLS were always on it.

Anyway I've listed the responses and brief reasons why it thought this way.

So no link to share but you can try throwing in the question into chatgpt yourself. Wonder how/if it changed now?

Also pulse should have a new report for 2024 (Although, I don't think I like their methodology)
