😅If you’re asking when SJ’s blood gets harvested, it’s at the end of the second act. Probably around 26 / 27 💔

I have issues watching a show about an ARRANGED MARRIAGE with no kiss scenes or intimacy. Had it been any other storyline it wouldn’t have mattered as much to me. But they get married 🤦🏼‍♀️So it will be a show about a married couple with no… physical romance. I have nothing at all against actress, but damn. Any. other. storyline. 😔

I needed a break from the intensity so I’m rewatching Coroner’s Diary 😂After finishing such an incredible show, I wanted to let Fated Hearts settle a bit before trying to get into something new. That, and then also I have NO idea which new one to pick up.

This was one of the reasons that TPoB is one of my all time favorite Cdramas. Manman was incredible, and it just goes to show that women don’t need to be badass fighters in order to be “strong”. She was brilliant.

The fact that he’s still so delusional about Tingyan 🤣 As SJ said, “She’s my cultivation partner. You’re just a clown.” 😂

He was the owner of the children death camps tho…..

I cried too! Best big brother EVER. I loved loved the main couple, but let me tell you - the sibling relationships and Suige’s relationship with his battalion are 👌🏻 ❤️

Oh it gets even more complicated the further along you get. Grab some popcorn and hold on lol 😂

I felt so sad for her tbh

Saaaammmee!!!! This was such a great show! And I can’t think of another show I’ve watched where we got awesome choreographed fight sequences with the lead couple side by side! 😍 What did you think of the episodes with the Storm Alliance?

I love this, thanks for sharing! I agree with everything.

Finished! MY GOD that last fight scene! 🤌🏻

😉 Yep.

Unlike many others, I never hated the princess. She was naive and sheltered, made an impulsive decision based on romanticized ideals of love… and then got trapped in an enemy state with a psychotic royal family. She did what she had to do to survive in that situation, mainly kiss up to the crazy emperor. Her actions made sense to me, and I felt sorry for her.

Yes exactly. I like how you phrased this. A lot of people have criticized this show for the “shallow” villains, but given these principles, it makes sense why the villains acted the way they did.

I’ve been talking to my partner about this, and just reflecting on how different some of these Asian cultures seem to be than our Western values. A person doesn’t exist on an island; children pay for the sins of their parents, adults hold grudges from events that happened when they were children. Your behavior affects your family, etc. It’s very much a culture of shame.

No kidding. I was disappointed that they didn’t go that route. Such a wasted opportunity 🤦🏼‍♀️ HOWEVER… XJS owned the death camps, so I don’t think going that route was feesible anyway.

👏🏻 One of the best!

The respect and companionship is there a LOT earlier, though 😊

Absolutely 😊 Such a great show!
