My main issue wasn’t really about wanting explicit romance. What bothered me was how much focus they gave to the destined-to-be-doomed romance between Jiang Xuening and the 2nd ML. We already knew it wasn’t going to last, yet the show dragged it out for so many episodes. Meanwhile, the main couple barely got enough screen time until the very end. It didn’t need to be full of kissing scenes — even subtle romance would’ve worked, like showing care, warmth, and partnership while facing challenges together (similar to what we see in Blossoms). That kind of gradual build-up would’ve made their bond feel stronger and more natural.

The bastard father of the Ml is forcing me to skip through the episodes, how can someone be so cruel to their own son? I swear he deserves the most gruesome death among all the characters in the series, even more so than the main antagonist.

I hope I never have to come across such an unbearable character in future.

I get your point, but Ji Chang Wook can only give us so many dramas in his career, and as a fan I’d rather see him paired with some of the most beloved leading actresses. Pyo Ye Jin may be a good actress, but she’s mostly known for supporting roles, and after seeing her in those for so long, it’s hard for me to picture her as the leading lady next to my favorite male actor.

Ps. Aren’t we already going to see them together in The Manipulated this year anyway?

It’s not about whether Pyo Ye Jin is talented or not, it’s about fan demand. There are countless actresses that fans are actually hoping to see opposite Ji Chang Wook, and she simply isn’t one of them.

There are so many actresses fans are eagerly hoping to see opposite Ji Chang Wook, and the best you could come up with is Pyo Ye Jin, who isn’t even an A-list actress?"

Mention not..

12 days from today

Because it only has 8 episodes this season and 6 have already aired, Episode 7 guest is Lee Sun Bin. So.....

Thank you for indulging my curiosity means

Does he recover as the story progresses?

What kind disability does Ml have?

The emperor bastard should never have been born. That Son of a b!tch's tyranny almost made it a revenge drama.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, really appreciate the effort you put into replying! 🙏✨

I'm put it on hold then.

They could have done a better job.... Are all his fight scenes like this?

When I asked others they said Cheng Lei's action scenes are good. But what's with this supernatural power he's just waving his hands and punching the ground and the enemy is dealt with (cringe and Ineffectual). It would have been so much better if they didn't add the supernatural element to the story and kept the action scenes more grounded reliant on an the actors physical prowess.

Why is the Ml physically weak after absorbing the power in the initial episodes and when does he regain his martial prowess?

Thanks for the insight. I completely agree with you about the camera work and the abrupt cuts (currently I have only watched the 1st episode). In my opinion, the best fight scenes out of all the C-dramas I’ve watched so far are from A Journey to Love. Liu Shishi is absolutely phenomenal in the series—Liu Yuning as well, but especially her.

Thank you for the information, I was mainly interested in the ml anyway.

Thank you for the reply.
