Just finished ep 29 and finally Huan had the much needed heart to heart talk with her mother. Still doesn't exactly absolve the mother from her previous actions, but the important thing is that she has admitted her mistake. Glad to see the out if line concierge staff in Xing Anli is gone, but I can't believe he had the guts to splash water on Huan's face. Am at work so don't know yet what will happen in ep 30. Having reached this point in the drama, I am of the opinion that the actress playing Huan's mother should also have been billed as one of the leads aside from Yang Zi and Xu Kai because of the amount of screen time and also the long dialogues.
Up to ep 28 now and I wasn't expecting that Huan will take the initiative to kiss Zhi Ming in the double deck bus at ep 25. Seriously will there be more annoying characters as the drama progresses. I mean Huan's uncle and cousin were really bad. But her mother is still the most annoying one. Forcing Zao for apologize for something that wasn't his fault. No need to write more colourful words to describe my annoyance with the mother because she's just a character in the drama, but if mother was like that IRL I wouldn't be as controlled as Huan.
Up to ep 24 now and I like the development between Huan and Zhi Ming. The hair flick when Huan told her brother that he needs to go was funny and Huan seem comfortable with the un-intended (or maybe not) physical contact with Zhi Ming during the fishing episode. Huan's mother is still very annoying. I've had to fast forward a few of her unreasonable ranting, and really the way she talked about leaving the western style house when she was in front of Zhi Ming. Been reading here that she'll have a character development around ep 30 so just a few more episodes of suffering lol.
This is a nice melodrama and currently on ep 15. Yang Zi and Xu Kai have a surprisingly good chemistry and at this point in the story they are still in a boss-subordinate relationship but getting more friendly with each other after the bidding fiasco. I wonder at what episode will the friendship begin to ship to love and who gets attracted to whom first. I reckon it will be Zhi Ming. The most annoying part of the drama is the obnoxious mother. I've had my share of cdramas and quite familiar with filial piety but she is over the top and doesn't understand her daughter's feelings. I will likely fast forward future scenes of her rants in the next episodes.
Just watched ep 13 and really liked it because of numerous sweet moments between Hae-in and Hyun-woo. I’m really curious about Grace. She betrayed the mother and son team, but it looks like she’s with them again. I believe Hae-in will ultimately decide to have the operation despite the almost certain risk of losing her memories. I say this because what is the point of showing the delusional Eun-seong having the house staff remove the belongings that links Hae-in and Hyun-woo. Its obvious he wants Hae-in to lose her memories so that he can “start anew” by pretending/lying that he is Hae-in love. Only 3 eps left and still a lot of things left hanging including how Hae-in brother died, the hostile takeover arc and of course whether Hae-in will live or die. I don’t want a sad ending, but if Hae-in does lose her memories, I hope she doesn’t forget Hyun-woo. In a way this will be a miraculous ending. Btw Hae-in secretary is quite beautiful, especially when her hair was down. I predict a rating of 22 - 23% for ep 14.
Watched ep 12 and I was annoyed when Hae-in went with Eun-seong to cover up the fact that she mistook Eun-seong for Hyun-woo. Good thing she owned up later in the episode and told Hyun-woo the truth. Eun-seong is really a pitiful character. I mean he knows Hae-in doesn't like him in the slightest but he basically moved the whole household to prepare dinner. So glad that Hae-in got away from him in the house because of his mother's fault. The writers keep on pulling our heart strings with dramatic (Hae-in rejecting Hyun-woo's divorce withdrawal ring) and sweet (Hyun-woo pulling Hae-in into the sofa and Hae-in trying out the ring) moments. Sad that the grandfather had to do what he did, but I guess it was remorse because it was his fault why the Hong family is suffering right now. Finally Soo-cheol showing some backbone when he basically forgave Da-hye despite a violent reaction from his mother. The teaser at the end was interesting because it showed Hae-in and Hyun-woo wearing their rings again.
Finally finished watching, and it was an almost perfect ending with Shen Li saying she's pregnant. The perfect ending would have been a wedding witnessed by the 100,000 deities Xing Zhi was talking about. Anyway for those who have read the book, did Xing Zhi regain his divine powers?
Binge watched eps 18 to 35 during the weekend and it was time well spent. A lot of sweet moments between Shen Li and Xing Zhi in the fishing village while Shen Li was recovering but my favorite episodes were the ones in the Snowy Mountains. Ms Jin is now my favorite supporting character. The actress playing the role was perfect; sexy, seductive and naughty like a snake demon. Her dialogues were on point and I really had a lot of laugh when she was trying to make Shen Li and Xing Zhi admit that they did the thing in the cave. The episodes when Shen Li was in the Extranatural Heaven were a bit dragging but they were essential to the story as Shen Li finally found out who her parents were. The fighting scenes have finally started again in ep 35. I hope to finish the drama today.
Ep 11 was good but it didn’t quite answer the question if Hae-in and Hyun-woo are really divorced or not. Anyone the most interesting part was Hae-in mistaking Eun-seong for Hyun-woo. Who knows if there is a twist to this?!?!?! Assuming it is really Hyun-woo outside, just how will he get Hae-in from inside the car? Also in the ep 12 teaser Hae-in is wondering what is real or not. Please, please, please I will be really disappointed to see sweet moments between the lovers and it turned out in the end that it was Eun-seong. It will be a very effective way to make the viewers hate Eun-seong, but frankly for me that is poor writing and quite demeaning for Hae-in. So they used the amnesia card for the grandfather. Very clique but let’s just see how it pans out.
Just watched ep 14 and finally Shen Li got Xing Zhi to admit that he is Xing Yun. Once again she said that she is marrying Fu Rong and Xing Zhi is obviusly not too happy. Also, she said she fell in love with Xing Zhi not Xing Yun, but I suspect their relationship will have a development in the mortal realm.
