the series has such a wierd setting , actually -. there is so much death, ML , the deposed emporer and his brother , yan feng shan, wang pu and everyone around them, .. all seem to lead a very abnormal life...havent seen anyone leading normal life in the series, must have been really choatic timeperiod during that time.... it made me wonder , what is so great about life that people like yan feng shan and ML's uncle are willing to kill to survive without compassion or kindness ... is that life even worth being called a "human" life... they are just animals ..
Xie Huai An's father is Liu Ziwen. Liu Ziwen is known as an extremely rare and talented genius. He had numerous…
Thanks for the explanation. i didnt think that deep. it is true, surviving huben army itself must be a huge yardstick to one;s intelligence and competence... really broke my heart that he couldnt protect his sister, and being geniuses didnt help his father.. and poor chap leading such a pitable life using his brains to get his revenge
once in a while you come across stories that has a lot of meat, this is one such a story! it needs more than 50 odd to narrate the story in half decent manner. 28 is too few ... the ride seems bit choppy.... feels like starved off some good content...
Ep16: was it smart not letting the deposed emporer know his elder brother is awake? that idiot gave himself away by saying "brother wake up fast"/....am not really trusting the elder brother? he has too many tricks up his sleeve.. and he also tried killling han zling
at Ep14: it seems this is the 1st time ML has come out of the villlage he is working as registrar, and wonders who recommended him and brought him to the emporers notice. yet from gu yu to yan feng shan , all seem to be aware of his capability!!!! what capability when did he had opportunity to make them see and fear?- they all met him when he was 10 or lessyears old,so what am i missing? how does they know about his capability when he may not have made any direct confrontation till then?bit confusing- super speed pace , too many plots , places and people.
I'm enjoying immensely but wish pace was a bit slow with more explaination
this is one of the 1st chinese dramas i watched , so so long ago when it 1st released. i really enjoyed it then, rewatched it a few times in the following years.
rewatching it again, am enjoying the series in a different way, am enhoying performancdes of actors i thought irritating...and yea, there are parts am finding them very cringy now.. but still
Yang Yang was good. but chemistry was lacking as ZS as weiwei was too stiff in her acting. MXT as Erxi was one…
the 1st time i watched this series thats what i thought , Erxi is irritating. rewatching after years, i realise the actress is so cute , pixie like.. and her expressions are very cute too.. yea , she adds some spice to the series through her actions..
yea, ZS looks stiff, She looks fine in most portions, though she looked very thin and malnourished in some parts, very very thin//wonder what was going on with her then
Ep9: i can understand if no one recognises crown prince in that village, but why aint the royal guards recognising in the palace.. also, for all the smartness female lead shows , csnt she make out his looks , smooth hands, language , posture , way he carries himself indicate a noble upbringing , for she herself come from such a background..she calls everyone idiot or fool. But not able to figure ML background is unusual..
2 thai dramas - kluen cheewit and my forever sunshine..
Thai dramas hit you different when compared to C/K/T/J dramas , either you absolutely love , or hate them... ..the language was something that took me some time to get used to , and , the dramas can come across as very over the top, and sometimes extreme, without dumbing down or sugar coating uncomfortable themes.., but once you look past all that, it can be very enjoyable..
2 thai dramas - kluen cheewit and my forever sunshine..
Ofcourse! Mark is one of my fav thai actors, but these dramas are genuinely brilliant. I find it difficult to get into genre of thai dramas, but these are so nice. You will fall in love with everu character in the dramas, not just main leads, even side characters are adorable.
ep2 : why would the PM had to make a coup? isnt he already the most powerful one in the kingdom, making decisions for the kingdom ?? who is there to challenge him?
I understand why paik saeon disappeared ,as punishment , but going to that war zone is bit too much. Writers should have handled it differently.. it must have shocked him immensely that his father is responsible for so much loss in her life, and her familys ..so he must have wanted to beat himself , punish himself.. but bringing in such a wierd war zone arc out of blue to demonstrate how he punished himself is bit too much.. i guess this part is tge reason people downrated it a bit ..but loved it so much more the 2nd round watching.
The last episode was so dumb it single handedly lowered my rating. It started interestingly, but was very predictable…
true .. it started so well, was great mostly ..only ending was a bit let down ..still i enjoyed every bit of it the 1st round , eagerly waiting every week for new episode release.. now watching it 2nd time..
ep1: she got the cut on right side of her neck when the intruder wields his knife to stab the back side of her car sear. but when she was tending to it later the cut is shown as being on her left side...
I liked it in the first 10 mins of my watch. After a long time am liking a korean drama that is not led by my favorite stars ... waiting for more episodes
I didn't understand either. Also how did pei wei became a shen ? And I didn't understand why they made people…
everyone other than FL and ML forgot the time travel story... though others have forgotten but he remembered that he married into Shen family and also ML was around when FL's brother disclosed PeiFei was the ancestor , so sonce he adopted the Peifei's child and he himself is a Shen now (privately) , publicly maybe still Cui (he is a Shen since he had a matrilocal marriage with FL) he raised the child as Shen-- since he knew timetravel story and that every trace of FL's family time travel got removed , he may have made it a point to redraw the portrait of himself and FL, pass down the story via that child he raised since he knows the story is key for their timetravel, so he set the story in motion in his timeline for FL's journey into past....thats how i read it

someone posted a theory many days back, must be buried in the below comments - that , pei fei and princess had a child who couldnt be raised by themselves (maybe they couldnt marry or what ever reason!)- that child was raised by ML.. since he married into Shen family , he probably raised the child as Shen surnamed, if that is true , they should nt have removed memory of Shens family from time travel - and should have explained this bit in the past time line atleast as a voice over - that ML though he lost FL he was still happy to have raised her ancestor who he knows will give birth to Shen lineage leading up to FL and then she will return back to him , in that time loop.... this is how it should have ended the past timeline instead of showing him as a old sad grandpa suffering his entire life having lost love of his life....and current timeline should have ended the way it is , with ML's rebirth.. that would have explained everything ,plugged all loopholes ,and satisfied curious viewers like us
feels like starved off some good content...
Ep13: Did his sister really die? what a shock this is !
