I love Seo Hyun Jin! Very talented, definitely one of my favourites since I watched Another Miss Oh early in my kdrama journey. Brilliant show made more exceptional by our Hyun Jin. I tracked down her other shows after that, and I was in awe of her skills <3
~~Naksu’s soul sifting The problem with body sifting, especially when it's live action, is to make clear to…
Based on how only one soul can inhabit a body (as shown by the switch between Queen and Shaman Choi), it wasn't explained where the soul of the original Mudeok went to. I was waiting for the reveal but it remains a plot hole. Haha
Love, love, love this article. PHY is one of my favourite writers; I have her in My Favourite Writers list. Another Miss Oh is a gem...the brilliant story, top notch directing and the super talented cast.
I fell in love with Seo Hyun Jin in this drama too. Haha.
Thank you for the article. Feels awesome to not be alone in my love for great writers xx
Read your brilliant review after finishing the show. Really appreciate the extra nuggets of info! I've watched and love all the shows by Daylight Entertainment, except for The Bond (just added into my Plan To Watch list).
I was a bit surprised that the production wasn't a slick sci-fi when I started the show haha. But I was eventually sucked in by the well-crafted story and the excellent, nuanced acting by the cast. The romance was icing on the cake for me 😝
Thank you for your review. I was shopping for another drama written by Qin Wen. I'm in the middle of her "The First Half of My Life" which is so brilliant. Will check out "The Rebel" soon :)

You nailed it with this review. Thank you for putting it in words. I was disappointed with the adult years, but loved the school episodes. So sweet and full of youthful innocence.
The actors were less convincing in the adult episodes as well.
The comparison with the novel is very interesting. One of the reasons I like this drama is cos Fuyao is so strong. A warrior princess, and not one of those damsels in distress characters :)
Brilliant review! Thank you for articulating my frustrations with this drama.
The episodes were too long, and seemed rather self indulgent. Thank goodness for FF or I would have dropped the show. All the "comedic" bits got pretty annoying halfway through the show.
Jung Hae In was truly mesmerising in his role. He keeps getting better with each drama he's in <3
Love, love, love your well articulated article. Got me chuckling in many parts. I've never thought about this question, and loved how you analysed the differences :)
BTW 90% of the GIFs are familiar to me. OMG I'm a total K and C drama addict! Hahaha
New fan of Mark Chao, as I just finished Eternal Love. This article is helpful in my hunt for new materials to watch him in. Full on withdrawal symptoms here. Haha
Thanks for the recommendation. The 2 lead's chemistry was amazing, and so believable. I knew they were solid actors but I have so much more respect for both of them after this <3
Yup.... waiting for answers in S2 😄
I just recalled that I watched this when I was little, and enjoyed it :)

Still a fun watch :)

Love this epic romance too. Mark Chao was glorious indeed xx
Totally agree that Zhang Ruoyun was even more amazing in this role vs his Joy of Life character.
I loved the mix of slo mo and intense action sequences. Gave me a chance to understand the fighting. Haha.
The whole show was crafted so well, down to the minutest of details. Such an enjoyable and magical ride.
Thank you :)
I am thankful too to everyone who made this magic happen ❤️
