KiKo Tsukino

I actually love his acting from the other previous parts in this drama too hahaha. But this scene is definitely counted down as my top favourite in this drama. Throughout the whole scene I literally did cry the whole way through. It's just that touching!

We both can agree that ep 49 can be done better.

For me, the father and son moment was such a blessing before the finale. If they didn't include that in, I would have been so bitter. I also love how it showed that Yuan Qi kinda figured the one who spent the day with him back then was his father (Bai Jue) in disguise, at least that ties up some loose ends for me. That whole scene of Bai Jue and Yuan Qi really touched me, I will watch again and again on my end.

Xu Kai is a great actor, have seen 3 of his dramas and it definitely wont be my last!

That moment between Bai Jue and Yuan Qi have got to be my favourite before the finale because, omg, I literally 😭😭😭😭 on my end. The way Bai Jue shows his fatherly love for Yuan Qi, how he took him to the human realm to spend time and play with him, this time, as his real self instead of "Feng Ran" and not to mention the moment when Yuan Qi called him "Father", not once (although once is already good enough for me...) but 3 times!!! And then we got how Bai Jue react to it, his eyes being teary, yet they were happy tears 😭😭😭😭, I really 😭😭😭 because it was so touching to me, the way how he expresses these emotions, through his eyes!!! kudos to you Xu Kai, your acting sure don't disappoint! ❤❤❤

That makes 4 of us now! (Good to know)

Omg I know what you mean... like I am also frustrated about not seeing that being expressed on Shang Gu missing Bai Jue to the same extent as when Hou Chi misses Qing Mu. I mean they are both the same actress Zhao Dong Yu, and she showed us that she is capable, so why did it turned out like its so lacking. Its almost like she accepted it, I don't see or feel her grief the same way Hou Chi have and expresses for Qing Mu, when he was gone, and if it weren't for these reminders that she's waiting for Bai Jue, I would thought that she have accepted it and is okay with it!

I don't like that because of how ep 49 played out, it does felt like, due to what Zhao Dong Yu showed me between the two versions, it does felt like Hou Chi loves Qing Mu more than Shang Gu loves Bai Jue... T^T

I don't know what's wrong with it man, even the Shang Gu from back then can show me her deep love for Bai Jue, but the final episode and her expression showing me her grief and sorrow is really lacking. Its almost like its not even there.... T^T

But I don't have any problems with Xu Kai, no matter if it's Bai Jue or Qing Mu, his acting with his emotions in expressing his love is perfect!


Oh yes, do share the fanfic if you find any that is good. I need it to heal my heart from this emptiness :(

The drama is very good. I mean, I can feel Bai Jue's grief when Shang Gu is gone, but for Shang Gu, I feel like it was lacking in the emotional department. She was good at expressing these sad/emotional scenes prior to all this, so I didn't understand why it was lacking so much in the final episode. Honestly, I really don't see the grief that I wanted to scene, so the whole waiting from her end, was not very impactful, since it lacks the passion.

I do love ALP, but there are some things I am not very happy with, with how that whole part was played and lead to the ending.

Her feelings and how she expresses she misses Bai Jue in the novel was so powerful, but the drama lacks this, we even have her somewhat blaming Bai Jue when she made a point to Feng Ran about Jing Jian's death and his sacrifice when compared to Bai Jue, and what she said to Hong Ri too, so I was somehow a bit unhappy about that, I mean I get why she's upset, but don't blame Bai Jue(or make it look like you're blaming him for all said), well, that's what I got out of it. If you're asking me, the whole scene about Shang Gu misses Bai Jue was done better in the novel, but the overall ending, I like that they at least have them hug when compared to the novel. Still I don't think I will ever be satisfied. I am really hoping we get a bonus clip/scene after Bai Jue return T ^ T (What are the chances, well one can hope??? Or someone can go and write a fanfiction and link me to it, so I can read this T ^ T)

Yes, agree to disagree, just different perspectives to how we perceived that scene and our interpretations to it. I will stick to my interpretations for all said and you can keep yours for your interpretation.

I am not denying it's a happy ending. Yes, it's a happy ending, but I am adding the word 'unsatisfied' in it, because it sure left me with an unsatisfied feeling.

Saddest thing is, I even agree, that if they added some extended dialogue between them, so we can see their interactions would have been better than just "Shang Gu, I am Bai Jue" and they hug, the end. Ok, I have nothing against the hug part, because I welcomed it, Bai Jue deserves a hug after all this, but can they not extend the dialogue, where Bai Jue and Shang Gu are having some extended dialogue (although this is not in the novel, but still T ^ T). It's the fact that they both been through so much, and after all the shits they've(oh and us too, the emotional journey), we got this kind of ending. I would even be happy with no dialogue, but just a short moment of having Yuan Qi running up to them, and hug his father and welcome him back, and Bai Jue smiling down at Yuan Qi and held him in his arm, and then have a three of them looking happily, that kind of ending would have been blissful to me, but nope, none of that T^T

I couldn't sleep, so I had to watch it, but I cheated, because I jumped to the ending to ep 49 before I watched episode 47 LOL. And then I was disappointed, still I was happy I got the father-son moment, because that much is needed, however, that ending, is forever unsatisfied to me. At least.... they got a hug..... But.... Omg, I wanted to see their wedding as true god so much T^T

Omg, can I just say you took the words right out of my mouth here!! In comparison to TMOPB where Bai Qian yearn and misses Ye Hua, I was expecting something to be similar in ALP when Bai Jue is gone, but it really lacked the emotional impact from Zhou Dong Yu, and it just in the end, left with.... an empty feeling....

There was also two time skips too, but sadly, I don't feel Shang Gu's grief the way I wanted to see. So much I want to say, so much I want to see, in the end, I was left with.... that ending. I don't think I can ever be happy about it. Sure it's a happy ending but it sure left me with an unsatisfied feeling. I love ALP, but that ending just left me with an empty feeling. I got a bit more than what was written in the novel ending, but that's not enough T^T

We seem to be understanding the story differently here lol. No that's not what I got out of the novel, and I have just went back to read that part again, just before he sacrificed himself. Even before he sacrificed himself, he didn't want Shang Gu to remember, that's why Tian Qi was so mad at him, and was reflecting about it when he was saying all that to Yuemi.

In the end, it is this whole destiny thing, the same way it was out of Bai Jue's control when Qing Mu and Hou Chi got together, that lead to all this. To me, what I got out of it, both drama and novel, is Bai Jue wanted to protect Shang Gu from the burden of being sad and her from blaming herself, he didn't went through all that for nothing, to have him wanting to return her memories.

Shang Gu remembering was not part of Bai Jue's intentions, it was outside force that lead to her to remember. In Bai Jue's dying moments, before he sacrificed himself, his last words was for Tian Qi to not reveal the truth to Shang Gu, and to help him keep this a secret, so I failed to understand how he would be showing me this before he sacrificed himself, and then his intention was to return Shang Gu's memories.

Honestly, I don't think we will be on the same page here, so we can agree to disagree. You can take your version of your perspective and I'll take mines, and will keep to what I got from both novel and drama (for all said).

I am not talking about the novel here. I am talking about the drama, and how it played out in that scene. It is very clear that Bai Jue have no intentions to return Shang Gu's memories for all said.

In the novel, I don't remember Bai Jue asked Tian Qi to return her memories, even just before Bai Jue sacrificed himself, he told Tian Qi to keep this from her, to the point that he even asked Tian Qi to help him seal a part of her memories, so she won't remember. Tian Qi even got mad at him and said that if it was his(Bai Jue's) intention to continue to hide the whole truth from Shang Gu, after Bai Jue said that, he didn't say anymore.

What happened after Tian Qi left, which lead to Bai Jue sacrificing himself, Tian Qi was reflecting on himself, and the extent Bai Jue would go through for Shang Gu, he was saying all that to Yuemi, asking her if she was in his situation, how would he choose? To reveal the whole truth to her, let her know and live in regret (because Tian Qi didn't want to keep this hidden from her or lie to her), or let Shang Gu live on without ever finding out the truth. Keeping the truth from Shang Gu and not revealing the sacrifice was Bai Jue's last wish, because he wanted Tian Qi to help him keep that a secret for him.

So what I got out of it, not even in Bai Jue's last moments did he want Tian Qi to tell Shang Gu the whole truth, because he revealed that he will go as far as removing her memories to ensure she won't ever find out the truth.

In the end, that choice was Tian Qi whether he tells her the truth or not because he's the only one who knows about Bai Jue's plan and sacrifice. The only difference between Novel and Drama is that in the novel, Tian Qi did not know or find out the truth until just before Bai Jue sacrificed himself. Bai Jue's last words to Tian Qi was to help him hide these memories from Shang Gu (from what I remembered)

In the end, what I got out of it was, both novel and drama Bai Jue is the same, he wanted Shang Gu to live on without the burden of her feeling upset/sad about it. He did not endure all this, and going as far as having Shang Gu cut him out of her life, to then have him (Bai Jue) return her memories, because it's contradicting and defeats the whole purpose of what he endured all along. So, no it does not kill Bai Jue's logic, but what you said about Bai Jue wanting to return her memories, is what kills Bai Jue's logic. Even if it was returned to her, I don't see it as Bai Jue's intention, but just destiny wanted Shang Gu to remember (outside force) that was not in Bai Jue's plan/intentions.

Yeah, that's how I personally see it, I mean, I don't think he wants his son to give it to his mother, because it will be contradicting to what Bai Jue wanted to achieve/endured all along. He told Gu Jun that even if Shang Gu/Hou Chi were to misunderstood him/hate him, that is at least better because she won't be upset when he's gone, i.e. her hatred can be her strength to live on happily. Before he went to sacrifice himself, he even told her to not think or dream about him anymore, this is already telling me that Bai Jue intention is for Shangu to not think about him so she won't feel upset when he's gone.

Him intending to give her memories back, defeats all that.

If he intended for Yuan Qi to give the bracelet to Shang Gu, and return her memories, then it will make no sense, to what he's been trying to achieve all along. This is why for me, I think it was a gift for Yuan Qi like he said(and the points I listed in my previous reply), and even if he was going to give it to his mother, since there's no meaning for him, he did not intend for the bracelet to just crack like that which leaks out the memory that he have stored in the bracelet.

In the end, that's how it is played out, like always destiny is getting them together (not that I am complaining though lol).

No, that's not true. Bai Jue didn't endure all this, and even make a comment saying that her hatred can be her strength to live on. Him wanting to give her memories back defeats the whole purpose on what he's been wanting to achieve on his end all along. He even told her to not dream of him or think of him anymore, so to Bai Jue, he wanted her to forget about him, so she won't feel sad/burden when he's gone.

The whole memories recovering is a plot-point to push forward for their happy ending. It's not in Bai Jue's intention, because he even said that he didn't mind Shang Gu for hating him forever, misunderstanding him, as long as she's safe and lives on happily, that's what matters to him. He wouldn't want to give her memory back to have her remember, and her feeling sad about it.

The end result is, not Bai Jue, but Destiny. This whole thing is also regarded as their love trial. The same way how it wasn't in Bai Jue's plan/intention for Qing Mu and Hou Chi to fall in love and be together, but destiny brought them together.

I am wishing really hard right now. Like a Cut-Clip or something, anything, just show me an extended scene after Bai Jue came back lol. I will even be happy if you give me a family reunion and the family of 3 T^T

Qing Mu is sweet, but Bai Jue have shown me again and again, he can be sweet the way Qing Mu can, so I love Bai Jue too, they are the same person to me

You have no idea how glad I am that they provided me the father-son moment, and it was also hinted that Yuan Qi knows that the "Feng Ran" who took him to human realm back then was his father. This is one of the positive before the finale, despite I am still somewhat unsatisfied with that ending 😭😭

Yes, a happy ending, but an unsatisfied one I have to say

Tian Qi ends up alone sadly :( But Feng Ran have an open ending because Jing Jian is reborn, so it is implied they will be together later. Shang Gu told her about it, but she didn't tell her who this person is because of the whole 'fate thingy', but Feng Ran will get her happy ending (it is implied).
