Weak script, overused dramatic plot (Like, OKAY WE GOT IT, WE GOT IT THAT IN IS SO HELPLESS, WE GOT THAT ALREADY), terrible editing (primarily reason why, they keep ruining the flow of the show with those high school skill level of cutting and putting scene together), and overtone make up (minor issues but I personally got icked from it) and terrible acting, especially those cops and its doctor, the doctor's acting (Jimmy) too is so underwhelming compared to the fortune teller dude (Sea)
Can't believe this is the same pair that played in Last Twilight, so I guess they have no power in the industry yet to reject mediocre script yet
Oh, and I feel bad for those Polices, don't even let me start with how useless these bums in the series, such nonsense the way how they worked as a unit for a mere plot device π
Imma be real, it won't, because this drama is about Wuxie yearning of Xiaoge and his Xiaoge background story
You won't get the "feel" of what his "yearn" for if you didn't understand their relationship, building chemistry around these 3 first, so imo, watch, Ultimate Note (different cast tho) first or wait until this current on-going drama (Time Raiders) finish its broadcasting
DaKui πAnyway . . . First arc is done, faithful to the book, PanZi written so well, Wuxie being Wuxie, this adaptation clears the lost tomb and put them on shame easily (I have an eternal hate bone for those old adaptations wish I could erase them from existence)
Might be the minority here, but I'm so glad they didn't force the bromance element in this drama, The Lost Tomb series has lost its meaning when THAT audience always misinterpret the Iron Triangle relationship and only looking for the bromance scene, majority of them literally ignoring the adventure, the lore and the purpose of "RAIDING"
Adventure behind the bronze door is one of the best adaptations but felt short because they hated Wu Xie there. Apparently, he's too old and they can't ship him with Kangle, like good gracious, it's 10 years after ultimate note deadass, ofc he's old
This new Zhang Qiling resemble a lot of Zhang Kangle's, their lips shape (I'm sorry, I'm that kind of a viewers that observes everything looks pretty lol) are so similar, the way the spoke is also very similar, I know that Xiao Ge tends to be portrayed like that, but Huang Junjie and Xiao Yuliang's version are so different in appearance
Pretty wild to recast ZKL and then find someone who is exactly like him
This series meant to be a mellow heartfelt story, but I can't enjoy it as much as I wanted it to be as A JimmySea fan because the editing and the flow are so messy. An awkward transition in between the "tone" made too hard to not to complain because, one sec it brought you to tense music then suddenly change the pace into some romantic vibe, disjointed
The only thing that keeps me here is their immaculate chemistry
Ung supporters thought he will get Ujin lol π he didnβt even had a chance with her from the beginning. They…
Having a one-sided beef? π because this whole comment sections for weeks didn't even bother about the romance nor having such childish debate about who's going to date Ujin, we were busy talking about whether this drama about Rugby or not, praising the actor, put the frustration on the mothers and the bad guys
get that twitter or tiktok kind of child-ah argument out here
From being the food delivery for the National Youth Team training to became one of them, that alone deserve his own episode depth. He's just a fictional character but I'm so proud
If Hanyang lose in the final or MunUng didn't get the highlight in the match (Because he's supposed to be the MVP of the team, the best player and Ju Garam's young version), Imma lead my army to downvote this series π jk, lol, but I mean like
You can't build drama like this only for the final to be anticlimactic So better cooking some masterpiece for today's finale
My Jaw dropped when I saw Jung Hyunhwa, table tennis legend, those who in the TT community should be familiar with her, the only non-Chinese who won world Championship in the Women category
Sadly, no Badminton nor Archery legends where these 2 sports are Korean's Olympic Gold medalist
Finally, a green-flag main character where he just straight-forwardly said "I'm hitting on you" the moment he realized he's in love, didn't wait for a signal nor playing the green flag card way too much just to get the attention or the sign from his crush first before making his move
Idk how often this happen, but from my experience with watching bl drama, this is kinda refreshing to me
Team behind this doesn't deserve Sea in their project, he's been stellar since Last Twilight, and even more in this series, yet, I couldn't feel the flow due to that horrendous editing,
Episode 10 review - Another well directed episode, and this time, they finally connecting piece by piece and well-packed plot. Probably 3rd best episode behind Ep. 3 and 8 for me personally
The episode started with an anger, then switch it to comedy, then a bit of romance and finally ended it up with a beautifully crafted build-up-tension, tbf, nearly all episodes had this road, it's just that, this time is pretty seamless in transitioning the mood
What I like the most is the final 10 minutes, they got a way on how to reveal Garam's illness in a, somehow, smart? I would say. Because the idea of what Garam went through 3 years ago, and they twisted it back to Seungjun, whereas we all know, Seungjun hated him at first because of doped, and in today's episode, he finally stands on his shoe, and that's also the perfect place to reveal Garam's untold truth
I already gave up on giving a shit about the rugby team's character arc so I won't stressing myself asking for each member's turns, I want to care about all of them, but at the end, I can only give my soul for Ung, Seungjun and Garam, I couldn't care less about the other
This is maybe a bias, but less shooting team screentime also gave me a joy lmao, I have no beef with them, but they have little to zero relevancy here. and what I hate the most is the preview, because wtf is that? don't tell me he's gone π

They won the audience! !
Hopefully it's a financial success so that we might get a 2nd season π

3/4 part of if the finale is literally a glimpse on how to end everyone's character arc
That's such a good run, and, welcome back Taepung, my man

Rating goes up by 0.1 after being stuck at 8.4 for more than a week
