I am an American and I absolutely didn't vote for that a**hat. But it is sad that "supposedly" half the country did. Most of them that voted have absolutely no idea what is coming, and it is scary. The ones that voted for him are the ones that are going to lose the most.

I agree with you.

That's what I am worried about. He wants to replace all the sitting generals and higher up military ranking members and if that happens, I am seriously worried about our country for the next four years.

Yes, I agree as well. I am one of those people that prefer the romance happening later cause I think the build up is always so much better for the story telling. Like now basically all we have left is her being introduced into her new family and him solving the case of his master (which that part of the story is a tad bit boring for me, hopefully they will make it exciting). Almost, all the secrets have now been revealed.

I agree. I really don't understand all the hate toward them either and it was pretty strong. I love the characters. They may not give off love vibes but they have great chemistry together in acting. They were cute, funny and I absolutely loved their scenes. They were sincere and never held back from one another.

I completely agree with you.

The first brother (her "father's" brother), 6th sister, 6th uncle.... even her maid (the one that starts with a Q, I forget her name) none of them at least tried to intercede, I know about the others, just aggravating none of the others at least tried...but I get it. **also, I wrote that before I watched the beginning of episode 29 **

where was everyone when she was getting beaten? how could they not know what her fake father was doing? the fact he punished her because his b*tch of a concubine daughter instigated it, infuriates me. I hate that whole scene. LYN saved Qiao from being dead and her stupid daughter still wants LYN dead or punished. this is beyond infuriating

actually there was a forehead kiss in episode 28 while she was sleeping.

Her real bio father was great, although he died really early. When she took over as Wei Young, that dad was not so great.

Yes they do. It really sucks to, they have even started cracking down on the voiceovers (dubs). As in if an actor can't dub themself then the actor has to pay for the dubber. It use to be the studios paying for the dub. There also use to be a lot more voiceovers then there are now as well.

It was implemented within the last couple of years. I believe the same year LLTG and IS came out.

It was implemented the same year LLTG and IS came out, that is why they were broken up and then the new rule if you have more than 1 season you have to wait a whole year before airing the 2nd season, came out shortly after that. So since Lost You Forever had already filmed, and they broke it up into 2 seasons, you had to wait a whole year for the 2nd season of it. So now these dramas try to get everything into mostly one 40 episode season, which for costume, xianxia, martial arts dramas it is really hard to do. Modern dramas it is easier to make them shorter.

I have tried so many times to watch Viki dramas with the timed comments, but between reading the subtitles and then keeping up with the comments it gets to much.

If it wasn't for their regulations that dramas can only be 40 episodes and about 45 mins long, a lot of these dramas would have more than 40 episodes, but they don't want to have to wait a whole year for a second season.

Not really a love triangle. There are several people who like the FL, she doesn't initially like the ML, she already had someone she liked. She does end up liking him. I myself, really like the ML in The Rebel Princess, he is definitely perfect for the part.

I forgot about that part. YN wouldn't have gone to prison except Madam Chen had YN's maid tell the magistrate, whereas they kept her situation in house.

I love to see all these reaction to LYN's plotting and intelligence. To me this is nothing new. If you haven't seen The Princess Wei Young or The Story of Ming Lan, what LYN does here pales in comparison to these stories and the clever intelligent FLs of those. I am use to these types of historical dramas with this kind of intrigue. I wouldn't necessarily call this a thriller or mystery so to speak. There are many political historical dramas where this type of stuff happens all the time, I guess I am so use to it. But I love seeing people get excited over this kind of stuff.

I would recommend the following dramas if you seriously like this type of story:
The Princess Wei Young
The Story of Ming Lan
The Rebel Princess
Jun Jiu Ling
Nirvana in Fire *edit* (this is not really female lead centric, but it is a great political drama)
The Legend of Dugu
The Rise of Phoenixes
The Sword and the Brocade


These are just a few, but I am sure there are several others that I missed.

the same could be said with LYN when they imprisoned her, they didn't have any real proof either, except some maid, but still no actual proof

I agree.
