His singing about his little car which never gets stuck in traffic jams... 🚗 🤣🤣Adversary forces of the…
Haha, yea, that was very uncanny of him. I thought it was kinda funny and I can imagine him doing it in real life.
Well it’s going to be kinda tropey wrt the romantic line, so they will break up because of that girl, it’s in the next preview and then get back together….
I am unable to hate Fan Yu, as he is just a useful idiot for Luo Zi Shang. I am annoyed with Fan Xuan, failing…
I was thinking about that too. Like he was always portrayed as such a wise and intelligent character throughout the series…. The tweak from the novel whereby LZS was the only Grand Tutor is kinda illogical though, coz the Emperor ended up firing him, he has to be aware from the get go that LZS is bad news even Jiang He who was in jail knows it…. I feel some of the development and plot changes versus the novel since episode 30 is a little…. Off… it’s a mix of tropey and a little inconsistent for some of the characters….
Ep 23 is super duper funny. The new dude is hilarious… 🤣🤣🤣 I think this is a really enjoyable watch… like a 8-8.5 score... And the leads are really sweet and cute tog…. I mean it’s obvious that it isn’t a high budget TV series and the editing could be more fast paced, and tightly woven but I really enjoy the business and familial themes…
Vengo Gao is really very cute and comedic in this role… I actually think his acting has improved…. Probably because he is a lot more experienced now…
I thought it was coz he’s a paedophile… but from the latest sneak peek it doesn’t look like it…. Looks…
Hurmmm…. Really making me super curious now… I thought it was sex-related.,.. but probably thinking about it now, there might be even murder involved on top of Yu Jin.. and probably money…
I thought it was coz he’s a paedophile… but from the latest sneak peek it doesn’t look like it…. Looks…
I saw that! Super creepy. But wot is it about though….? An affair…? Or is it still paedophilia and there was a kid behind those doors? I was surprised that it looks like there’s money also involved… looking at a bank passbook? Hurmm… 🤔
Anyone have a theory about wot the real story is behind her death? I’ve been trying hard to deduce but still nothing. Lol. I don’t even have an inkling…
This is such a mature drama, am loving it.. much much better than other current online series.. it deserves more…
Same! Lol. I actually think it’s quite good, just obvious that it’s not a big budget drama. And editing flaws here and there. But it’s about an 8 - 8.5 rating so far.
VG is a hoot but there's no way Su Mo is 27. She's a decent actress but one that was totally miscast here sadly.…
Yea, but it’s because of the novel. And if they changed that many things wouldn’t have worked because of her backstory on the university degree thing, living with extended fam etc. so if it was her actual age it wouldn’t make much sense, it would be so far from education/schooling age.
And also the male character in the drama and novel is probably only around 30-33 based on wot they’ve said about him… instead of VG’s real age of 40…
So it’s coz of the casting of both leads being a mismatch with the novel. 🤣 I actually didn’t think it was that bad though, don’t think she looks 40…. I just see her as quite compatible with Vengo Gao and didn’t think too much about her being 27….
everything was good until i saw 🥭.. Crying internally.😭😭
LOL! I saw that too, on the Relationship Chart post…. and went 😳it’s not only the subs… they don’t usually do high quality/budget dramas. I was really surprised.
For those saying that the last 5 episodes were weird or unnecessary, I completely disagree.It’s actually really…
Same thinking. Before watching the last 5 episodes, I wondered hard on wot they were going to focus on… 🤔 I was quite surprised actually and I thought it was sucha good addition! Loved that they didn’t end the series once the overarching plot was settled, would have felt like something was amiss.
The cinematography and production budget….. oh gosh… like wow… it’s at the level of a movie production…. No wonder the score on MDL and Douban is so high, it has been on my Watchlist for a while but always procrastinated coz I thought it’d be very dry/boring and I’d drop after a few eps (like the American series SEAL Team, wasn’t bad at all but….. was dry, I dropped because I never quite built a connection/attachment)….
Was smart of them to follow a relatively straightforward plot so that the action shines, and the flow of the entire 45 eps is sooo smooth, gripping, probably the best I’ve came across for a modern C-drama. Also good call in having a very solid supporting cast… this defo isn’t a genre that can be carried entirely by 1-2 leads for so many episodes… Totally enjoyed all the comedic moments. Think all military themed dramas should have comedic/lighter moments to balance things out and also reflect a more realistic side of the army’s private lives/during leisure times…
LOVE that the reliance on CGI was minimal, the film sets+shooting locations were truly impressive… totally commendable. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I’m honestly not a fan of this genre but to those who are thinking of watching, just watch 1 episode…. It’s super engaging and fast paced right from the get go… My eyes were like completely glued to the screen. I would have given it a 10 (and I don’t have many 10s), but there were some overly exaggerated and unrealistic moments in the first 15 eps (I literally went 😳 and I nearly rolled my eyes) which was weird given the whole drama was actually very realistic albeit dramatic…. So I’m giving it a 9.5!
Edit: Special mention wrt the last 5 eps… many areas of improvement (and yes, some CCP propaganda here as well 😒) but worthy attempt. Esp notable wrt ‘internationalising’ things whilst keeping it real and current…. I’ve never watched a large scale C-drama which considers a worldwide audience.
idk if you saw ryohei mentioned in an interview that he might be/thinks he is bisexual !
No I did not! Really?? I was really quite shocked when the movie started playing… coz his demeanour was really exactly like a gay fashion editor… I’ve never met one but he does remind me of a gay hairstylist I know of. Interesting…
They look sooooo good together…. Gosh… the casting of the 2 leads offers the perfect contrast and balance. And the chemistry is just so…. Wow… so realistic esp how Suzuki Ryohei has such a masculine physique and face… yet his demeanour was spot on, completely taken by surprise. I had to Google the both of them to check if they were gay in real life.

I didn’t think it was the script, I thought it was more of the editing. Not sure actually. It is kinda jumpy at times. Or rather abrupt..

They even modelled the set to look like the King Abdullah II Special Operations Training Centre in Jordan! 😳😯
