Old mansion: bad father + good grandmaNew mansion: good father + unwelcomed grandmaBe strong Yining! β
I hope it happens soon. I really don't want the identity of her real father to drag out like her not being the legitimate daughter of the Luo family has.
So far this has been one of the best episodes, at least for story progression. But, LYN's not bio father is dumb, clueless, incompetent, runs hot and cold, gullible, just an all around freaking idiot. I know I say I don't like Concubine Qiao or the First Madam, because they are evil, but I truly hate LYN's not bio father. He is the worst character and sort of the worst written.
Also, it looks like the First Madam is insinuating that LYN is the child of her husband and LYN's mother. And I knew that letter would be at the end of this episode so we would have to wait til tomorrow.
So I take it that the grandma knew all along about the FL's true identity? (or maybe not necessarily who her father was, but that she wasn't really her granddaughter)
I am unable to do that, but it's a good lesson... I will never, ever again start a drama which is not completely…
its one of the reasons why I like binging, even though it sucks to wait, I prefer watching all the episodes at once, but sometimes I miss the day to day chatting and posts that you get when you watch an ongoing drama, so I will occasionally watch an ongoing drama just go get that
Did anyone else feel as you were watching the scene with Concubine Qiao and LYN that if felt staged, not really real? What I mean is we know from the previews Concubine Qiao is alive, so I didn't get the feeling I am suppose to from the scene, if I had not know she was alive. That most every thing that LYN is going through was completely intentional. (which for the most part I am sure it was) But I guess I should not look at the previews, so I would get that shock and awe feeling so to speak.
My balloon π was completely burst after watching the trailer for ep 27 when I shortly discovered only episode…
Me!!! I feel it...can we just skip episode 26 and get to 27...... especially surprise the fact Concubine Qiao isn't dead, I can't believe they put that in the preview
I know I have said this already but I really can't stand that lady of the first house. Please can we be done with her.
Also, i think today was the first time in this drama I actually got a bit annoyed with Ren Min's voice. When LYN was whining about LSY not wearing the clothes she made for him. It got a little to whiny for me.
C-dramas usually have a 2nd couple. it's not unusual and I don't think they have that much screen time. Maybe…
I agree with you. I think this episode they maybe had a bit more, but there have been episodes that haven't even showed the 2nd couple. I think they also did this to clear up a lot of stuff. I don't understand why everyone is so upset about this. There are way more dramas out there where there are 2nd couples even 3rd couples that get just as much if not more screen time than the main couple. ( Wrong Carriage, Right Groom for one). IMO, the 2nd couple in this drama hardly has that much screen time at all.
Here's a different perspective on why the second couple has been getting more screentime lately. First, as others…
Love this explanation. I also have mentioned that about 2nd and 3rd couples being in almost on every single drama. Thank you so much for your wonderful insight.
I just love reading different people's reviews, comments and thoughts, sometimes I agree and sometimes I don't and even sometimes it makes me change my thoughts and views, seeing it from a different perspective.
She just gave LJX a big clue that she was his Mei Mei. At least on iQiyi the sub (at marker 14:40) said "Even if it meant I'd die again today....." I mean hello big hint, now he definitely won't leave you alone. And he sent someone to retrieve that Song woman.
Also, I am so ready for the First Madam to be gone. I would seriously be happy with the Concubine back if we could get rid of the First Madam.
We are now past the halfway point and I am really ready for some of these secrets to come out in the open and for some things to be cleared up, yet it seems they keep adding more things that need to be cleared up. Hopefully, the jail thing will be taken care of in one, maybe 2 episodes.
I love the interactions between the FL and ML, but a lot of these interactions, I wish had waited until after she had found out that he wasn't her real brother. I mean he knows, but she doesn't right now and some seem a little bit, I don't know how to phrase it, much for them just being "siblings". She really does genuinely care for him as a brother, to see her so excited about the prospect of her getting a sister in law or helping him find one, it is so innocent on her part. I really wish he had of told her a long while back, especially now that she has said no more secrets between them.
The writers have done an exceptional job crafting a character who is not only intelligent and quick-witted but…
If you haven't watched The Story of Ming Lan, Zhao Li Ying did the same thing with Ming Lan in that. It is one of my absolute favorite historical costume dramas with a very clever and smart FL who has no fighting skills whatsoever.
I agree with you about Ren Min, I think this drama will be a definite re watch for me. She is portraying this character very well. I am enjoying her acting and the story a lot.
