How is it guys???? the ratings is so low... but i always see the poster if this all over the facebook timeline..
I suppose it depends on what you're looking for but I just finished the first 8 eps and am loving it. It has a bit of palace intrigue back-biting going on in addition to a political storyline of ML Emperor vs Empress Dowager. Some seem to be calling ML toxic and/or mean but he's basically conflicted with a love-hate relationship for her so far.
I'm glad the end made sense to you 🤣 We were roasting the last few eps in our watch party.
🤣 True... It could have had a worse ending. It was just that for over 5 hrs they could have tightened up the plot a bit or even just gone for maybe 30 eps and fleshed it out a tad more either way. Plus the first half was REALLY good and I think that's why I was as disappointed with the with bit as I was.

Everything became so "blink and you miss it", rush from one thing to the next. I saw the final Villain coming but they still made little sense on how everything was hidden for so long. We got throw away plot lines like "drought witch" and 2nd FL seemed to have a head transplant during that part as well. There was the "when did that person get stabbed" part that apparently happened off screen and we all blinked and couldn't tell you what happened to the disciple villian.
I know this is going to be me when I go to finish it now that it's over. This is absolutely going to be a show my husband laughs at me for bothing to finish 😑
YX is dead again so PRESENT WZQ waits out the time, missing her but knowing he's got one last shot for HIM to…
LOL and this is why time travel shows get frustrating 🤣 It's also similar to what I said about there being the plothole of why the phone was in the attic in Ep 2 🤣 I can personally fill in my own storyline Possibility that it wasn't a plothole and she left it there because she was leaving the country and remembered she had the phone still and wanted to leave it "just in case he ever came back" since it was originally his dad's.... but that's 100% me putting that together to make it make sense. 😅

I think I see what the issue is... the one year "spacing" between Past, Present and Future parties only matters with the phone. They can "exist" up to one second apart from each other in my head lol. So Past WZQ has control over knowledge up to the day Present WZQ is living which would in theory be March 2, 2025. This is also why it's so vague as to say "one year later" rather than specify a date for his scene imo. YX comes back to China anywhere between Jan 1st and March 2nd 2025. Past WZQ get the knowledge that she's back but doesn't make up his mind to do anything yet. (Because if he HAD already met up with her Present WZQ would know and they'd be together), so Present WZQ meets up with her and then it's assumed that Past WZQ will meet up with her also when that day arrives for him.
I haven't had the time to watch the lasts 4 episodes but will do so once I get caught up with The Double. I am…
🤣 Let me put it to you this way... It's more concrete than Bright Eyes In The Darks ending, but it DOES require having actually paid attention to the tiny details they put in throughout the show and "possibly" a rewatch. A lot of people like things at surface level (usually me too 🤣) so it becomes confusing when the show has to carefully stitch scenes together and not show dates (after showing dates consistently) and start talking about "dreams" in a time travel show.

95% of what you're saying is exactly what I'm saying also about who made the phone call and who threw the phone (the "Present" WZQ that we have been following the whole show)
The difference we're having is why he said 2 years and the ripple effect. He said 2 years so that if she actually followed directions Future WXQ would be able to basically immediately go look for her and he'd only have to wait a year. As for New Past WZQ needing to wait 2 whole years, Present WZQ doesn't know how long it will take to clear everything up in the new timeline so wants to be safe and knows he'll wait.
The major issue is that it says "One Year Later" while under the scene for the Past WZQ, which is splitting the scenes of Present WZQ throwing the phone and saying thise words you mentioned and then Present WZQ making the reservation for the B&B (YXs scene).
But under the "One Year Later" banner with Past WZQ scene where he is in the car then mistaking someone for YX then having the conversation about being afraid she's moved on, Ni Ning says "This is all the information from the past year about Yuan Xia. Though you have never talked to us about it in this past year, Xing Nan and I both know how much you care about her."
Could your interpretation be right? Absolutely. They are deliberately vague with everything in this episode because of censorship. All I'm saying in my interpretation, since the WZQ that was on the balcony and then threw the phone on the beach is wearing the EXACT same clothes as the one that makes the reservation and goes to meet YX, the director is telling us no time passed for him and the middle scene is to explain WHY he knew she was in China and not abroad like she "should be". 🙂

It's possible that it could be 2026 but that would negate the very end scene saying they got married in July 2025. The reason I believe it to still be 2025 is that we have the scene with him on the balcony the there is the cut to the OTHER WZQ with the Vague "One year later" but no date, it didn't need a date, it's just one year later for new Past WZQ. His scene happens and it cuts back to the Present WZQ wearing the exact same clothes but now with the knowledge that YX is back in China and where she's located since it's already been shown that when Present WZQ did something Future WZQ would have the memory so it would logically follow that if PAST WZQ learns about YX Present would have that knowledge.
As for her being told to leave and not return for 2 years 🤣 She seems to be REALLY bad at following through with leaving and staying out of the country in every timeline so... 😅
