I would love to know your favourite C dramas if you rate this average and only think it deserves attention from ep 7...i was captivated from the credits! and i don't remember a single chinese drama i have NOT skipped forward before...i can just be grateful to live in such a time when i can enjoy honest dialogues, straightforward leads, realistically sweet chemistry and unabashedly indipendent heroines...

the break up happens suddenly and only later we get an idea why...within two ep if i remember right they meet again and awkwardly start their relationship ....it does not take long but it feels too rushed and not substantiated enought to really pull at your heart strings...gut it's a happy ending in the end so i did not mind too much...

I just want to freeze frame every smile and every loving gaze of this amazine couple! their every day chemistry is off the roof... but i also want to slow mo every action of this amazing female butcher and her no nonsense way of dealing with bullies and bad neighbours! what a masterpiece!

Xie Bin Bin completely stole my breath away in this otherwise light and predictable drama...heartwarming and pleasant enough but hardly ground breaking...the question is...with such a dashing presence on camera how he not landing more main lead roles? i looked in his filmography and he has done way too many support roles...this reminds me of the profesional ark of Byeon Woo Seok who was denied so many opportunities...just to explode like a supernova in Lovely Runner ...and not stopping any more....well, i want to se XBB explode in the same way...so that we can continue relishing in that smile and those dimple forever!!!

Small love triangles at the beginning of their love and later after they break up..but nothing really seriuos as the ML is constantly and very clearly in love with FL who suffers ( a little unexplicably if you ask me) from the distance and difficulty of hearing one another and decides to break up...this part feels very rushed and sudden...did not really care too much about it...but this is a light romance at best so you cannot really fault it too much...happy ending anyway so it was not wasted time for me!

Why is there no Romance tag to this drama? I found the romantic growth of the leads slow and beautiful...very satisfactory!

Just started this and i am already a fan! the quality of acting, fighting and verbal sparring is quite commendable...plus the visuals of all actors and props...truly i am having big expectations...

Actually on episode 21 there is a beautifully tense moment between the two, when she leans her head on his chest to find a moment of peace...ok not a kiss but i found it increadibly intimate and really well done.

i completely agree! i came late to this little gem but it is worth so much more of our love!!

i did not get in what life they consumed their marriage so as to make a daughter...the episodes past mid point were too frustrating and kept skipping ahead...help me understand please!

On ep 18 and seriously addicted to this show....costume Cdramas really changing the game for me this last year...having said that...am i the only one who gets super distracted by the constant fluttering of the strands of hair on both ML and FL faces? how are the actors not coming down with a cold with the constant draft blown on their faces?? am i the only to have a problem with it??

I agree wholeheartedly! in the middle of epic battles of wits & swords, as they face vicious enemies and bad mouthing tormentors when they look at each other they make the very air around them so still...super cudos to the writers for the loving lines and the actors for their amazing chemistry and the true to life little facial expressions and actions...i was giggling like an idiot at the look of surprise on XJ when YE just reached out to touch her lips to his...(a true female general taking a bold lead!) and it was soooo satisfying when he replied with a full kiss just seconds behind her! ...you know what we want and need and are giving it to us with no apologies. Please keep it up!

what is a 'chr' linked to a character???

i know it is a little past its prime but i love taiwanese dramas...where can i watch this with eng subs?? thank you

ugh...i guess not all manwha work as live actions after all...i stayed to the end for the sake of Ok tae yeon who is really owed a better script in the future than the ones he has landed recently (does anyone remember Heartbeat...ahia!)...but the story became quickly messy and boring at the same time as the FL lost all facial muscles (i swear she has only two expressions...and one is displayed when she is passed out...) ...Probably impossible to solve the political intrigue in a handful of episodes as well..i guess we are spoiled by the many historical dramas of quality and this was just meant to be a filler for heavier players...

eh eh eh

...if the series is not as much as a joy as reading your review...I will come back and let you know unequivocably...for the moment i am diving in, following your fun & informative lead....thank you!

can anyone give us the list of Manhwa BL mentioned in the story??? (p.s. i so looooved this bitter sweet little drama that i want to explore every aspect of it...even the undirect reading suggestions 😁🌈

I never enjoyed costume Cdrama and since this has been a game changer for me i will try and say what lured & kept me in...Female lead emotional & practical intelligence is beautifully showcased in all of her 'intrusions' in the male world of political intrigue & war...if you are only on ep 9 you have not seen this in full force yet. Male lead soft side becomes more and more endearing as he opens up to this amazing woman he has in his life..and it is not her girly achievements to turn his head but her honesty, her love for the people, her openess in the allegiance and her willingness to make the relationship work... the side characters, like the friendship of the four generals, is endearing and believable...If the pace gets too slow you know what to do (ffwd is an amazing tool!!)...i stuck with it to the end and now I am at loss on what to watch next...i fear not many other Cdramas will be this good...eh ehe eh...

..yes...i can sense and see your dedication!lol...i will take your suggestions on board
