Morally gray 😁

Hmmmmmm….. 🫣 I dunno about that

I know it’s early 😅

Any idea if this one has a HE for the main couple?

He looked gracious and kind in the bts footage, but yeah it’s so upsetting that they’re both being put in that situation. Ugh! What were her reps thinking?? They weren’t.

So I don’t typically watch shows with no romance, but I am curious about this one. Does anyone have any idea about the ending for it?

Eeek!!! 😍

You could check out Moonlight Mystique - same ML as in Coroner’s Diary. Legend of Shen Li, Legend of the Female General, When Destiny Brings the Demon, The Prisoner of Beauty and Shadow Love are all really good.

The violence towards each other should be ending very quickly - like by 4 or 5 I think.

It’s tough seeing the BTS and of these two. They gave her a ton of makeup to make her look older, but it’s sooo uncomfortable watching them acting like a romantic couple. I think one of the scenes he fell on top of her. And then one with a full frontal hug and face holding. I can’t do this one - it’s too disturbing. It sucks because the arranged marriage trope where love comes after is my favorite. I was excited about this one. Not anymore.

Hahah I made the same mistake - The queen’s dad is the prime minister, if the emperor 😊

Yeah I learned to tune it out. I also wonder if there are any TV sound settings that would have helped.

I was FLOORED when he beat him to death with his BARE HANDS. That was so so epic and unexpected! 😍 👏🏻 👏🏻

LOL 🤣 She’s literally the greatest.

That would be so great if they did that 🥰

Would have been a perfect show had the whole HK arc been done completely differently… or not at all. What a bummer! I was so invested in this one until
the character regression. I sorta get what they were trying to do, but the way the writers went about trying to do it SUCKED.

Yeah you might like it 😊 Lots of people do.

Yeah I still keep an eye on it because I’m curious. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Oh my gosh why are you coming at me? 😂 I was talking to someone else about their concerns about the lying trope, and basically sharing my experience before you interjected 😂. What I decide to post is my choice, and you are choosing to argue with me and insinuate that I’m “sick in the head” 😆 Don’t like what I say, then don’t engage with my posts? Block me? 🤷🏼‍♀️ This is an open discussion form about the show, and I don’t see any rules about only positive posts being allowed lol. You can go ahead and get your panties in a twist all you want over my criticisms of the show. You wanna know why I check back occasionally and keep tabs on this one even though I don’t like it? Because it’s pretty to look at and I’m curious as to how it ends. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 😂 It is a win-win for me. I can find and watch specific scenes that I’m curious about (*coughsthebathscene*) without being in a state of feeling irritated by the deceit and secret keeping.

You can post back if you want to, but I am not going to respond.

I’ve been watching historical Chinese shows, both xianxia and wuxia, nonstop for six months. I vet my shows pretty thoroughly before I pick one up, though. So like Legend of Shen Li, When Destiny Brings the Demon and Moonlight Mystique were overall really good. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I own my mistake for picking up this show given the synopsis, but I just figured it wouldn’t drag out as long as it ended up dragging for.
