This just shows how great ALP is 🤣🤣

I don't think I can get out of it for a while, since I got my friend to watch it, so when he's telling me those scenes and what he thinks, it makes me want to go back and watch it LOL 🤣🤣

Yup Yup, this is why it's always good to go back and rewatch it since you can find certain things you might have missed from your previous watch, and then after rewatching it, you can appreciate it to a whole new level 😀 I have re-watched the drama 7 times now, I definitely need help LOL 😂😅

I can totally relate to this lol

Apparently, there's a few of us (in here), I came across with who felt that way about Cheng Xiao, but in the end, we still accepted/like that pairing because Xu Kai acting made it possible for us to like it. I was thinking that if it was another male actor who doesn't show the love/adoration, then that pair would have been very awkward indeed.

So this is why for me, in ALP, Zhou Dong Yu and Xu Kai did well in playing their characters, respectively they both were able to show me 'their love' for each other, so for me, I love Zhou Dong Yu and Xu Kai chemistry as Shang Gu x Bai Jue / Qing Mu x Hou Chi better hahaha.

I totally agree with what you said here, I am still not satisfied with the ending we've been given 😭😭 Bai Jue and Shang Gu deserves a more fulfilling ending than what we've been given 😭😭. I really wish there was an episode 50 to wrap up the story in a fulfilling note.... but right now, I am just hoping there will be a bonus clip to show an extended scene for Bai Jue and Shang Gu after he came back. A family of 3 would be nice though... Glad it's no.1! Despite there are things I wish was done better (i.e. ending being a more fulfilling one, and Jing Zhao punishment to be more harsher than what she was given...) I still love this drama a lot so, no.1 is well deserved for ALP!

That part was actually Bai Jue saying it to Gu Jun, because he said that Gu Jun could have done something on his end to prevent them, the newly weds from separating for 100 years, but Gu Jun didn't do anything to stop it, and that part was just so sad, you can see the expression from Bai Jue, how much it hurts him too, so he knows how Hou Chi would have felt on his end because no one knows how Qing Mu was feeling better than he does (after they merged/become one) 😭

I don't have a problem with Wu Huan's punishment since it was fitting to her, because death would be too easy.

I just didn't like how Jing Zhao can still accompany her mother like that and take care of her, stay by her side like that. Although I am trying really hard to comfort myself that Jing Zhao seeing her mother like this hurts her eternally because (1) she can't talk to her or communicate to her, only just watch her like that and (2) She is watching her mother losing touch of reality, i.e. she's crazy now.

I am not a fan of Jing Yang, but what he showed me and said, redeemed himself for me, so that makes him better when compared to Jing Zhao....

Even for Wu Huan, when she feels a moment of remorse in losing her son, Jing Jian and how she begged Shang Gu for saving Jing Jiang, and she will take any form of punishment on her end, as long as Jing Jiang can be saved... That is at least a bit better, even though she returned to being annoying/hateful in the end.

To me, I do think that Jing Zhao got off with a light punishment, because her punishment only come at the expense of cursing Shang Gu (not the crimes she committed previously..), so in my mind, I was like.... "If Jing Zhao did not curse Shang Gu, she will not be punished at all????" This is one reason I don't like it. Because I still think she deserves to be punish for what she did to Bai Jue, by poisoning him. Although it didn't succeed because Bai Jue was smart to not fall for that trap, but still from Jing Zhao's actions and her attempts to do it, she deserves to be punish for that IMO.

But in the end, while I may not agree with how the writers handle her punishment, I will just take it that Jing Zhao suffers from (1) and (2) said previously, as her punishment.

Anyways, that's how I see it, it's okay if we don't feel the same about Jing Zhao's punishment, it shows that we don't always feel the same in everything. If you don't mind how it ended like this (in terms of Jing Zhao's punishment), then it works out best for you :)

Oh, that is true indeed, when Qing Mu and Bai Jue became one = Hei Jue, in the third arc, he is definitely seen more soft/less of an ice-cube when compared to how he was back then, someone actually made an analysis about this and shared in here before. He also shows to have more vulnerabilities as well, this is why I feel for Hei Jue on my end :( [Still love him though]. Yup, complete memories, that's why I love Bai Jue(Hei Jue) more since he's the complete/original version, even though I also love Qing Mu a lot too.

Yup indeed haha! Although I have to say to see Bai Jue wears black actually pulls at my heart (hurts me), because I know what he's planning to do (which I love his sacrificial path since it shows how much he loves Shang Gu/Hou Chi), still hurts because it's a symbolic of how much he's silently suffering on his end. I know why fans named him that way to differentiate, but to me, Hei Jue is still Bai Jue to me, no matter what colour of clothes he's wearing hahaha. But it is interesting how fans came to name him "Hei Jue" to differentiate.

Wow, you sure have a few on your list to watch hahaha. I guess you can start with the one with fewer episodes since it helps clear the list quicker 😅😂 Ok, you can message me in here when after you watch 'And the Winner is Love' hahha, but watch it when you feel ready to watch it, no pressure.

Not complaining here either, since I love sharing things in common about what I love hahaha, that way it's good to fangirl together on the things we love lol.

Second Main leads in Miss the Dragon is definitely more interesting than the main leads/main couple, although for me, I have to still say I enjoy the bromance between Xue Qingxuan and Longyan better than the main couple hahaha. There's so little scenes of the secondary leads, and yup definitely want more 😭OMG, LOL, that actor who plays Jin Guangyao, I thought he was decent in Miss the Dragon, because I did like him before he revealed his true colours, when he revealed his true colours, I was like -___- you have to be another scheming bastard in Miss the Dragon, don't you??? -___-

I also heard there's a novel spinoff featuring Tian Qi and Yuemi's reincarnation, but I have not read it yet. I want a 2nd season for ALP as long as they keep the original casts, I still want Xu Kai to be Bai Jue and Zhou Dong Yu to be Shang Gu... I wouldn't like it if they changed cast for these two, I was disappointed that some of the casts was changed in ELOD i.e. Zhe Yan, Bai Zhen and A-Li was changed to a different actor in ELOD, and I personally prefer the ones in TMOPB better, and Ye Hua didn't even make an appearance in ELOD at all, despite he did in the novel (Pillow Book) 😭

Is Arsenal Military a happy ending? A fulfilling happy ending? I don't know if I will watch it or not, since I am still in the ALP phase (too deep in, having withdrawal problems), but I might consider watching it and see for myself when I feel like watching something new (although that drama is quite old), but from the scenes, it does look good. And LOL, they think it's BL, because Bai Lu's character is tomboyish? Well, it's not hard to tell that a female pretends to be a male right??? I usually don't have trouble telling it despite I don't know the actress. Censorship, always ruins a good show/story -___-That Happy Birthday one is smart, although everytime, he said "Happy Birthday", I wonder if those around him pick up the strangeness in it? Since imagine they have already heard the "Happy Birthday" in that year, and later on in that same year, he said it again. Hahahaah, then that would seem like she have more than one birthday that year 😂

Yup, novel don't have a hug. Just words to express how happy that moment is to her that Bai Jue has returned and that's the end. So I didn't like how the novel ended that way even more 😅Yeah, Lol, I have not counted the forehead kisses, but I do think that it's more than the kiss on the lips, since that was only 3, so forehead kiss, I think vaguely from what I remember is a bit more than the kiss on the lips 😅😭

Yeah, different opinion, and that's fine :)

As for Xu Kai and Bai Lu haha, everyone(me included) love the chemistry between these two. I do hope they will have another drama together as a couple in the future.

Sorry to say this but I actually felt that while Xu Kai character Lu Si Cheng did well in expressing his love, but I can't really feel the 'love' part coming from Cheng Xiao, like there are times where she felt awkward to me, which makes it hard to watch. If the story did not say, they are a couple, and they did couple things like kissing, I can literally just take how she sees him as a friend, instead of boyfriend. Xu Kai did a better job in expressing his love for her than Cheng Xiao, which is why in the end, despite what I am saying, I don't dislike the pair in FIYS, I do like the pair, but I don't really love the pair on my end, because the chemistry is lacking from what Cheng Xiao failed to show me on her part. No hate on the actress here.

This is just my opinion though. No offence intended.

To me, I felt Zhou Dong Yu and Xu Kai have more chemistry in their characters here (Ancient Love Poetry), but this is how I see it from watching both dramas entirely 😅

Who? Zhou Dong Yu?? If so, then I disagree with you, to me she was able to convinced me with her acting in her character as Shang Gu and Hou Chi. She expresses her emotions well, to the point that I felt she was made for this role. It's also because of her acting ability in expressing these emotions that made her chemistry with Xu Kai character Bai Jue/Qing Mu so refreshing to see. I wouldn't say they don't have chemistry, because to me they do so I quite enjoy the pair on my end.

All I can do now is just to imagine Jing Zhao lives a miserable life because she's mute and can't communicate with her mother anymore. But I will be honest, I am not satisfied with her punishment, since she disrespected Shang Gu and cursed her like that, and she even poisoned Bai Jue, which is a capital crime. Even though Bai Jue was faking it, doesn't change how she actually did poison him on her end. Worst, she shows no remorse...I wanted to see her being punished harsher not just being mute. But with how it's played out, I can only just put my imagination to good use here that she's suffering eternally on her end.

As for the last part, I do also think that Bai Jue kept her close so he could monitor Wu Huan through her.

I know right!! I want to see one between these 4, or Xu Kai and Zhou Dong Yu lol

Haha, but I can already see Qing Mu traits in Bai Jue back in the God Realm back then, like the part when Bai Jue wanted to apologize to Shang Gu, but didn't know what to say and do on his end, so Hong Ri helped in by writing it down for him, and Bai Jue took it down on his palm, and then the part when he read it word for word to Shang Gun LOL 🤣🤣🤣 and after he read it, both Tian Qi and Yuemi was laughing at Bai Jue, and they were like "is this something Bai Jue would say?? And then Bai Jue realized what he said LOL, so that embarrassed look and how he just left afterwards was LOL 🤣🤣🤣 that part is almost equivalent to how Qing Mu found out that the flowers he picked for Hou Chi turned out to be herbal flowers, and how Hou Chi laughed at him and he was like embarrassed lol.

Another example is, when Bai Jue was jealous of Tian Qi back then in the God Realm, as well as the part when he went to apologized to Shang Gu at the Dating Event, that is another similar trait that we see in Qing Mu, so honestly to me, back then, there are more than one occasion where Bai Jue have already shown me these Qing Mu traits, where he can really be sweet and adorable on his end. This is why I love the first arc so much because even back then Bai Jue have already shown me his adorable side on these rare occasions, not once but several times <3

This is why to me, Qing Mu is an extension to Bai Jue, and how Qing Mu felt for Hou Chi is Bai Jue sincere feelings, because Qing Mu is an extension to Bai Jue that is more open and unrestrained to love, so these feelings that he felt, I believe are also from Bai Jue, but the more honest/upfront part to him.

Hei Jue is the name the chinese fandom dubbed for Bai Jue because "Hei" means black in chinese and "Bai" is white haha, so when they referenced "Hei Jue" it is the him in the third arc where he wears black. And Xu Kai knows about how fans dubbed it like that to differentiate the Bai Jue from back then compared to the Hei Jue that is in the third arc but loll to me I view them as the same 😅😅🤣

I just find it funny how he said that he likes them both equally, and then later he said "If I really have to choose", then he choose Qing Mu 😅😂 But then, I do understand why he likes Qing Mu a bit better, because what he said makes sense. This is why most of us love Qing Mu, however at the end of the day, I am like you, Bai Jue is the complete version, and Qing Mu is just an extension to Bai Jue, without Bai Jue's memories, so I will always love Bai/Hei Jue a bit better than Qing Mu, even when I love Qing Mu a lot too. For me, Bai Jue/Hei Jue can still have Qing Mu traits as evident in the God Realm and during those times he showed me without Shang Gu knowing, so I personally have no trouble seeing Bai Jue/Hei Jue loving Shang Gu and showing his sweet love for her, but this is how I see it.

Yup, Yup, have fun watching And the Winner is Love :) Let me know of your opinions if you do end up watching it one day haha :D That drama deserves a high rating imo.

IKR 😂😂😂 Like how many things do we have in common now? Let's see: Wangxian, ALP, Yunxi, Xu Kai/Bai Lu chemistry, Xue Qingxun/Qian Qian (loving the secondary characters/cp over the main). Did I miss anything? 😂😂

I don't think I need a S2 for Miss the Dragon, although I wouldn't mind focusing on the secondary leads hahaha 😂 I hate how towards the end Xue Qing Xun was under control like that 😭 Since because of it, I was angsting for it 😭. But if they are going to give them a tragic end, then I will pass LOL 😂 I rather watch another drama that features: Deng Wei & Pan Mei Ye as a couple, since I love their chemistry on my end ^^

Let's hope for the best, I will be happy if they just give us an extended scene...ANYTHING, JUST TO MAKE IT MORE SATISFYING 😭😭

Oh, that's lame, why do they have to cut 90 minutes of their romance -_- It does annoy me when I find out these information, like the actors/actress put in the effort to play those scenes out, and then you just cut it??? What a waste of their time and effort?? -__- The Legends is the first I've seen of their chemistry: Xu Kai/Bai Lu, but I wonder which drama they filmed first? hahaha, Arsenal Military, or The Legends? These two dramas was released in the same year I think. Thanks for sharing that MV, I've just watched it, and omg, those scenes makes me want to watch it 😅😂 And that "Happy Birthday" means "I love you" 😅😂 Good one LOL, it's their secret code LOL.

The close up hug is 33 seconds hahaha, yes, but the hug lasted a bit longer than that, but still frustrating because that ending was so unfulfilling. If you don't like this ending, you wouldn't like the novel ending for them.... Since they don't even get a hug -_- Honestly, I don't like it when the characters/pairing (and us) suffered so much and in the end you give us a short ending like that, it doesn't make up for the heart break that we/they been through 😭I didn't count how many times on the forehead, probably around the same???? but yes, definitely 3 on the lips, it would have been nice if they ended it like TMOPB, where they have their conversation together, and then they kiss one last time (before the ending), as Bai Jue and Shang Gu 😭😅😂😂

Here's another Live stream for Bai Jue (Xu Kai), Tian Qi (Liu Xue Yi). The part when they mentioned about 'Hei Jue' (lol) how he's different to 'Bai Jue' and Xu Kai is like 'indirectly answering' this question without directly spoiling to the audience/viewers is so adorable LOL. It's okay Xu Kai, I understand why your character have to do these things, doesn't stop me from loving your character, because I can understand LOL. Anyways, once again Liu Xue Yi is taking his precious time to join in this live stream LOL( haha love these two) 😂

When asked fans who they love more: Bai Jue or Qing Mu, and then the question was directed back to Xu Kai, for him to choose, Xu Kai said he likes both, and it's hard to choose just one, but if he really have to choose one, then he will choose Qing Mu a bit more, because Qing Mu can do a lot of things that Bai Jue was unable to do, and Qing Mu can speaks more on the things in which Bai Jue was unable to say. [Me: T^T, what Xu Kai said is true between Bai Jue and Qing Mu, this is why Qing Mu is free to love on his end, but for me, if I have to choose one, then my vote goes to Bai Jue, personal preference, even though I love Qing Mu a lot too]

I wholeheartedly agree with you on that ending. I will never understand why they can't give us an episode 50 after Bai Jue came back to end in a more fulfilling note T^T
