I'm currently watching ep11 and I think this Kdrama is one of the few where the breakup was truly needed. Their relationship was becoming too strained. Even after all these episodes, it was still noticeable that both Younjae and JiEun were still struggling with her transformation and the shift in their relationship, especially with external factors like his scholarship abroad, Minju the homewrecker and the societal pressure. I believe a cooling-off period can benefit them both and potentially prove their true bond to each other and the viewers. If they meet again after years in the final ep still feeling connected and having missed each other, while also having worked through their issues no matter how cringy or ideal of an ending that may be I think I would still find it okay.

Honestly, for a rom-com Kdrama based on a webtoon, they did a pretty good job! It's not a drama meant to be taken too seriously, yet it managed to handle the more emotional scenes nicely.
One thing I couldn't stomach though, was how annoying and nonsensical Minju was portrayed. The writers should have toned it down a bit.
Personally, my favorite character in this show has been Ji Hun played by Yoo Jung Hoo. I believe he truly shined here and I really hope to see more of him in the future, he's a promising talent!

With all the spoilers and discussions I've been seeing everywhere, it's gotten really REALLY hard to hold myself back! I wanted to let this air out midway before starting it and based on everything, I think the plot is right up my alley!! I must hold on!!
Every once in a while u need a kdrama like Moon Lovers or Mr.Queen to wreck u and reassemble u all over again! So I really hope this will turn out just as good!

There are 3 main arcs as there are lifetimes. Around ep19-20 is the end of the first and based on novel readers, the second will be around ep27-28 and the shortest arc will be about their third final life!

I actually did just that! I took a break for the next few days and have started watching Moonlit Reunion and some other shows that I hadn't caught up on. I think stopping at ep17, which is right before the major angst events of the first arc is a memorable part so I doubt I will forget anything.

I guess it could happen, personally I think I still like WDBD a bit more ><

I guess that one as well...But let's hope for a better ending here cause SH was ktrauma...

I see, thank you for letting me know! I was considering saving SL for later, after finishing one of the other two, since it doesn't have much eps out yet. But your comment has made me quite curious now! ><

Thank you! I'm currently watching Ep1 and really enjoying it! The opening was great! Btw regarding the two men you mentioned, are their feelings toward the FL one sided? I usually don't mind such dynamics as long as it doesn't develop into a love triangle. I want FL & ML united and not a third party coming in between!

When Destiny Brings the Demon! I am currently liking it lots, but I've almost caught up and it's currently airing a sad arc, so I thought I would switch over to smth else to let it marinate.

Idk personally it gives off Mr.Queen vibes to me rather than The Red Sleeve which had a more serious and depressing tone even from earlier eps...

Oh, I understand now. Thank you so much! Up to the episode I'm currently watching, the information and reasoning behind her actions were still unclear to me or perhaps I missed some of it. I initially thought her clan might be similar to the remnants of the Yan clan, who had a connection with the fire spirit and were exploited by the villains. I couldn't quite make any sense before, but I see it now.

I'm currently watching WDBD and I'm looking for another cdrama to accompany it! How are things progressing so far here? Is it more serious or is it a lighthearted watch? How is the chemistry between the leads? Also how is the mystery and investigation aspect? Are the cases interesting?

Okay, I can't help but feel optimistic about this project! We have fantastic leads whom I've admired from multiple past projects. The cnovel is one of the best ancient transmigration novels centered around food. And additionally, we have an outstanding crew that anyone could wish for in a comedy show, who have previously worked on projects such as New Life Begins, My Heroic Husband, Song of Youth and Royal Feast.

Why is Ruling so hell bend on killing our ML when the true cause of her clan's suffering is someone else? Like sure SJ is the reason Master Shi or whoever it is enslaved your clan BUT can't you realise SJ himself is a victim as well?? Why not team up with him to throw off those behind it? Looking at how much FL values friendship, if Ruling asked her, I am sure she would persuade SJ to help...Like okay ur mom's dying wish was to kill him but you miss the point of why! She thought that was the only way to freedom but you should know better now right?

Currently on ep17 and this couple couldn't be any sweeter! Their chemistry and intimate scenes, as well as their bond and signs of affection, are incredible. I just can’t imagine the tragedy that’s coming and I don’t want to see them go through all that pain and suffering! At the very least, I’m hoping for a satisfying HE in ep33 if we’re going to have to bear watching them go through multiple lifetimes.
Btw there is something I am confused about will add in spoiler below.

Okay, I've watched up to ep15 rn and I can confidently say that this is the most captivating Xianxia I have seen this year after LOTDT! I really hope they can maintain this and make each upcoming episode more interesting and engaging than the last. I really hope the writing remains strong in the latter half of this series and doesn't fumble like some others!
I can already tell our fun and easy-going days are coming to an end...I really don't want to see our FL & ML suffer, but it's still needed for the story to move forward and to their next lifetime...Now all I can hope for is for a nice delivery and a good ending by ep33!

Same here! Aside from the intro ost, I haven't found any of the other songs particularly catchy. In the first few episodes, I even thought the bgm for certain scenes was non-fitting. However, now that I've reached ep15 I think it has improved a bit with the introduction of more bgm in the mix.

I never called it a BL. Go re-read my 2nd reply to refresh your memory. This convo is clearly leading to nothing.

Right this will be a long and probably emotional ride...The first few eps are most definitely the calm before the storm...It sort of reminds me of Ancient Love Poetry or Love You Seven Times in that aspect.

Actually, I found the CGI pretty good, especially our cute snake >< Compared to some other recently aired fantasy cdramas that had an "old look" to them, I think here it looks okay. My personal biggest issue so far seems to be the bgm...I just can't seem to find some of the instrumentals or songs complementing...
