This drama is my most anticipated drama this year but right now I'm so torn between watching it as it airs or binge-watching after its done because I usually find it difficult to complete on going dramas. Any advice?
From the comments, it looks like the story might only be happening in Hua Qian's dreams while she is in a coma.…
Something good the screenwriters and director did was dropping hints and clues that the FL could be dreaming throughout the series. This helps to ease the audience into the idea of it so that if or when it finally turns out to be true, it doesn't feel like a cheap plot twist that drops out of nowhere. This would be a good example of foreshadowing done right and shows that they respect their audience. A lot of screenwriters like to do plot twists that come out of left field and shock the audience but the best ones usually place Chekhov's guns (here it's the fact that the FL keeps smelling incense for no reason) that would go off later in the story so that the plot twist doesn't seem like an ass pull
I think the reason he won't divorce his wife is because he has actually fallen for her this time. But at the same…
Yes, ZYL strikes me as a rather possessive man. He was so quick to claim MY as his woman in public when someone asked for her hand so I can only imagine what would happen when he finds out about HQ and ZXW.
He'll also probably think HQ wanted a divorce so much because she wasn't satisfied with just being his wife and tried to seduce ZXW (like she seduced him) to gain a higher status and would definitely try to punish her even more by refusing to divorce her and making her more miserable
Imo, ZYL is not too enthusiastic for MY since he told her he would speak to his mother to change the concubine…
I think he said it because he believes MY deserves to be more than a mere concubine and wanted to wait until her investigation was over so he could marry her as a proper wife. He did tell her he was going to divorce HQ when the investigation was done.
After that look in the mirror, I guess MY's villain arc has started. Cuizhu has also noticed HRZ's feelings for HQ. She's probably going to turn on her mistress and betray her soon. I still don't know why ZYL won't divorce his wife when he has already gotten the woman he wants
I understand Grandma's decision to accept KJH because of the moral debt she has to pay to Strawberry but I think she should also be old enough to recognise when people (even if they're family) are using her. She can have a relationship with her daughter's family but she shouldn't force her son's family to accept people they don't know especially when one of them is actively hurting the family. She's naively thinking that everything would resolve itself because of family ties but she should know that she can't always eat her cake and have it.
His age is appropriate for the role he's playing- an experienced general. I'm so tired of suspending my disbelief…
From the wording, the latter part of my comment obviously has to do with visuals and not particularly age . Yes, there are young generals but do any of those young actors realistically look gritty or battle hardened enough to have seen a war? No. The character design has to match the role being played
We all suspected KJH was going to be related to the family in some way but the way it happened was genuinely hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing at the Brother/Sister reveal.
Not hating but the ML is so old. He can act as an emperor lol. His visuals are for more mature old drama.
His age is appropriate for the role he's playing- an experienced general. I'm so tired of suspending my disbelief when I see those fresh faced and skinny idol actors playing generals. It's not realistic at all
