I knew it! I knew he was gonna die, poor Ying Lei potato! He didn't deserve it! T_T

Ep30 and I have to stop for tonight, I can't keep goint - I just cried so much!

First Li Lun and now Ying Lei... both were my favourite characters and, although I knew Li Lun couldn't get a happy ending, I was really hoping for YL to reach the end of the voyage... well at least now he's with grandpa, cooking happily and watching over his friends.
He was such an injection of joy and happiness, everyone needs people like him in their life... they barely and rarely get recognized for how much love they give: constant and firm vibes of love, warmth, acceptance - always there, collecting the pieces of us that life breaks, and softly mending them back together... smiling, caring, just being there.

NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just finished the episode in which she dies and, to be honest, I cried so much! T_T

I'm bingewatching it rn and, to be honest, I don't find the FL annoying... she is the classic "pure hearted chosen one", but she is witty and strong-willed, although she is not physically strong so basically everyone always protects her.
She's not memorable, but that's only because almost all other characters are way more tridimensional and charismatic.

Set aside her character (and the other main female), I'm on ep 30 now and it's so enthralling that I bingewatched everything in a couple of days, it's very addicting! Great characters and interactions between all of them, amazing costumes and sceneries, beautiful music and a very vast and interesting plot spanning through chinese folklore, gods, demons... I'm loving it!

Hiiii! <3
Yes, after watching TU I'm basically on a wuxia/xianxia craze :D
(I'm bingewatching Fangs of Fortune right now, but I have to stop for tonight because I'm over my paper-tissues quota for today! T_T)

Holy..... I could breath only when the episode finished! How many things actually happened, it was a blast! O_O

And hey... Duan has definitely NOT the best way to manage a break-up... ^^'

Ep 24 just started and I had to stop to say, once again: Ying Lei is such a sweet potato, he's the greenest flag ever as a friend and I bet as a lover too, he's basically always doing things and caring and fighting and praying for everyone's sake - he deserves so much love!


PS - I can't believe the main actor is so young, he looks so charismatic and mature in this role!

These episodes are way too short T_T

B'z songs always rock! <3

And, here goes another series. I will miss them, both GreatInn and AoudBoom AND obviously their characters.

Loved the drama - it might not be everyone's cup of tea because of the slowpace and the period setting, BUT it was very well done. Excellent cinematography and all actors did an amazing job. Lovely music too, and very wellmade costumes. I was hoping to see a bit more from Thee's father second family and more MekDech - most secondary characters were actually very interesting... but I get it, they had to focus on the main couple.

Hopefully we'll soon get other period dramas with a m/m couple, fingers crossed!

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! XD

I admit I thought something similar too, but not in such a creative way! XD

Enjoy the ride! :D

I think she grows a lot through the episodes - while I loved her brother, whenever he's on screen I'm like "awwwww". T_T

Oh, c'mon! Stop making me cry! T_T

I'd love to bingewatch this twice as fast, but as someone said in the comments, you really need loads of tissues to survive almost every episode! T_T
I just finished episode 17 and I hadn't cried so much in ages, maybe last year with Century of Love or the year before with IFYLITA...!

I'm really loving ALL the characters (set aside maybe for the female lead, who's a bit bidimensional - I get where she comes from, and I get she's witty and pure, but I can't resonate with her) and ALL the subplots. The grandpa god T_T why T_T and I hope we can get more from Ying Lei, he was probably my favourite up to now! Such a cute fluffball of positive energy!

Sidenote: the aesthethics are marvelous - aside some minor CGI things, but ALL the costumes are mesmerizing, the makeup is gorgeous for every character and even the sideroles are dressed perfectly! And, one more thing: WHERE DID THEY FIND ALL THESE FREAKING GOODLOOKING GUYS??? All the cast members are so beautiful - like, LiLun is probably the sexiest villain in the world! o.o

Oh no no, I started TU three times throughout the years but never managed to go past the first couple of episodes, I always gave up around the 4th or 5th or so... I just couldn't get into it, and that happened until last month when I started it again. I had just finished "Returned Master" (https://kisskh.at/770875-jiang-jun-jia-de-xiao-er-zi) that I really loved and I was looking for a similar mood, so I gave TU another go. And this time, I got hooked so much that I think I bingewatched the whole 50 episodes in like... a week? ^^'

Now I'm waiting for the paper copies of the novel to read that, AND after I read the novel I will watch the animated version too. :D

Ahahaha, same! I was pretty surprised to know that the budget for this drama was not that much too: imagine what they could have done with a full budget AND without censorship! (Although I really love the subtlety and the literary quotes - they really manage to make everything so poetic and elegant!).

Hope you enjoy The Untamed too! For me, it was a drama I always wanted to watch but never managed to get hooked: last month I started it for the third time, and... it just resonated with me! This time I couldn't stop watching and I'm happy I gave it a chance, it's a bit heavier than WOH but the characters are equally charismatic!

I sooooo agree with you! I watched this right after The Untamed and I probably liked this even more than TU - Wen Ke Xing and Wei Wu Xian are both unforgettable characters, and so are the dynamics between WKX&ZZS // WWX&LWJ... but Word of Honor was so aesthethically pleasing in every scene, it really reminded of a beautiful, complex dance in which every character played a role gracefully (in the bad or in the good terms).

As I expected, after finishing the drama AND the novel, I keep watching tons of FMV each and every day because I miss Wen Ke Xing and Zhou Zi Shu so much! <3

Keep bingewatching and on ep11 right now... such a rich ride: very fun moments, but very emotional parts too! It made me cry at every secondary character's arc already - poor demonfish! Poor brother! Poor puppetdemon! T_______T

(the OST is amazing!)

This might not be the best series ever, nor the most original or incredible, but for sure JimmySea are the most natural among Thai BLs fixed ships. They nail every scene, every mood, every sync and every feeling they have to deliver. Everytime i watch them, I forget I'm watching a drama because they look like they're completely owning their characters, bringing them to life so well.

Thank you for this great comment, you said everything perfectly!

As always, being kind and just requires much more strenght than simply "being strong".
Although he didn't want it, Shu He was the only one fit to be King because he truly and deeply loves his family and his land, and for the "greater good" he gave up his own desires.

"Where Shuhe saw duty as love, Zi’ang saw love as duty."
Love this, well said!
