MJN

Me too, I personally do not like it when they start a drama off in a present time and then go back however many days, weeks, months, years, etc., cause now all I am doing is when are we going to see present day?

He is so good looking. He is currently starring along side Esther Yu and Zhang Ling He in My Journey to You. He is not a high traffic artist and has mostly been in short (mini) dramas, but I think after his role in MJTY he will start to get more roles.

Most likely the reasons for the rating going down:

~several typical tropes (meaning we have seen all these before and they are just redoing them and not very well or original)
~The story is suppose to be about the two main couples, but instead the supporting couples/characters are monopolizing the screen time, not seeing much of the two main couples
~The story is falling flat
~The main couples fell in love way to fast and grooms found out the identities pretty much right away
~insert your own thoughts here

For me personally, I enjoyed the main two couples storyline, the 2nd main couple's storyline started out so good and was enjoyable, then when the general found out everything, they got together and then he got that edict from the emperor/king, it went downhill. The first main couple's storyline started to get better, but then we are starting to see way to much of the supporting casts and it just deviates from there especially when there are only 24 episodes, you would think they would focus more on the main couples.

These are just my thoughts and opinions. I, myself, dropped this for now and am just waiting on the last episode. I haven't rated any episode since. It really is disappointing because I really like both main couples' actors (especially TXW and ARP), they are doing well and the acting isn't bad, but the story is just all over the place for me.

omg yes the bed scenes of those two are horrid

have you watched it yet? I will have to check it out later. I am behind on MJTY (waiting for some episodes to build up, because I love this drama and I want to watch more than one episode a day at a time, lol). Also, I kind of ruined Legend of Zhouhua for myself by watching all the previews (I try not to watch previews, because when I do I feel it takes away from the excitement of not knowing what is coming), but if I see previews I can't help but watch them, lol.

There are also a couple of other dramas coming out in the next day or two and one or two that I think came out today I want to check out. I have been watching a lot of short dramas lately as well, which I never thought I would like, but actually they aren't to bad. I like the 10 min ones vs the 3 to 4 min ones (those are just to short).

for the first since I started watching Asian dramas, I watched this drama at 2xs the speed, the last few episodes. I don't know how people watch dramas that fast, so I am just going back to FFing through parts I don't like.

it why I am putting it on hold and will probably fast forward through a lot or just watch the last episode, very upset about this, cause the 1st main couple's story was actually getting interesting again.

So we have 2 main couples, and about 3 extra supporting couples (Ke and his idiot maid, the doctor/master and his exuberant wife, and now Princess and Ping Wei). The only thing I enjoyed about today's episodes was the duplicity that Tian Lei and LYH did and their fight scene. I am actually enjoying their plot now a lot more, loving them one upping KSZ lately.

Honestly, though I think I am going to just wait til the rest of the episodes are out. I don't like that they are focusing so much on the supporting characters, when this is suppose to be about our two main lead couples and we haven't even seen our 2nd Female Lead for a couple of episodes or more. WTH?!

After watching My Journey to You, I want her Male Lead to be Ryan Cheng. To see those two together would be so great and after MJTY, I think he will be on the rise.

My Journey to You

I agree. These first 6 episodes have really been nothing but dialogue and story telling, lots and lots of story telling. If that continues I don't think I could handle more than 24 episodes of endless dialogue, even if the story is good. I want more action, I don't care about the romance aspect (although it is nice), I am enjoying what little we have seen of the martial art fighting and I want to see more of that.

I was thinking the same thing or something along those lines.

Me too, she is definitely at the top of my favorites and I love watching her dramas.

Its a cute little rom com with all the typical tropes. Although there are irritating moments, the acting in it is superb with the story they have. It doesn't hurt to try it out. I just learned yesterday, I have to watch it before I watch the episode of MJTY, because they are literally night and day and it is hard to get into this after the intensity of MJTY, lol.

LYH and QTL are so cute together and they are so smart and quick to figure out all these schemes. I honestly didn't miss the 2nd couple today.

me too!

wise words

What a cunning little vixen our new female home wrecker is. I like how they covered up the abbess's poisoning. They really are a smart pair. Not much of our 2nd couple except a little bit in the first of today's episodes. Why did the general go to the capital by himself? Why wouldn't he take his wife with him, did I miss something?

It is so hard to watch this after watching episode 5 of MJTY. I guess I am going to have to save MJTY as the last ongoing drama of the day I watch, lol.

If you haven't already watch A Female Student Arrives at the Imperial College, he doesn't star in it, but has a huge part and that is where he first caught my attention and I like him there.
