how was this compared to Love beyond the grave... general comparison?
This is xianxia, with Taoism, cultivation, immortality, sect, deity (though not seen), demons, human, more of an adventure with a lot of characters; the romance is light. LBTG is xuanhuan with more creativity in world-building of demons and humans. The romance is heavier there.
People gave bad ratings because of the sad ending. Duh, this is a historical drama, where the king's tragic ending is recorded. Don't watch if you don't like a sad endings, and then give a bad rating because of it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danjong_of_Joseon
Maybe it's a bug like the reply above. I watched it since I want to write a review article about it. What do you…
You must have read the short Netflix synopsis, as I did, too. My expectation after reading it, the romance is an enemies-to-lovers trope. So the ML will hate FL's fam first, then fall for FL. But it turns out lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers trope. Initially, ML wanted to be a physician and had a heart for people, so naturally, he's a nice guy. Making him a mean person straight after the massacre will be inconsistent with his nature.
There is no significant time jump, like one year later, or something like that. Probably, only at the end, but that's a big spoiler 😊.
Xia Xuan Zi better not be dead. I like him. He is an interesting villain. Unlike the other villains, so boring.
I was surprised when I checked the bio of the actor who played Xia Xuan Zi. He played the FL's little bro in Reborn! I rewatched a scene with him in Reborn, and I cannot find the resemblance between his character there and this drama!
What a lovely article! I especially like the pastel color palette! I usually check out every lakorn (especially from Ch3) when they come out with sub. Lately, it seems there are more new lakorn have sub. I assume Netflix Thailand subs lakorn now?
I thought I would finally watch Park Ji Hoon acting funny in a comedy genre and I would have a good laugh... until I read the synopsis... Darn it, I think he will make me cry again... 😭😭😭
ESCAPE truly was a gem throughout. I am also going to miss it alot. The ending was brilliant and satisfying with…
Thank you for subbing this gem! I came across this drama, and I binged it and just finished it today, and found your special episode, too. I will write a review on my website and credit you for the sub!
