I am on episode 6 and loving it. Before I started this I was on episode 28 with Love Beyond the Grave. I stopped…
Glad youβre enjoying it! VoS is definitely complex. It can get dizzying at times, but if you ask around here, someone will point you in the right direction.
I thought about it more, and it clearer now... so the reason it feel off cause I understand GJM want the episode to capture LWY pain and sacrifice to try to keep Ji Ling alive.
but it was so unclear why JL did the thing he did that it detract the moment for me.
It is inevitable that JL die here to resolve the drought, he does not want to kill Jiu Ying.... because that would literally kill Wuyi.
Ji Ling will not choose to not sacrifice himself, while Wuyi refused to give up at the cost of her own life.
We as the audience know this, it almost feel like it unavoidable and it is. Wuyi action here wont change JL fate.
I say it many time, it the best drama of 2026 !
She have to go back even further in time.
but it was so unclear why JL did the thing he did that it detract the moment for me.
Like I think that pretty important to know.
Ji Ling literally told LWY that since he can't save her, he would die with her ?!?!
Ji Ling did this to kill Jiu Ying. But
LWY says if Jiu Ying dies, she dies.... but she is alive right now.
We don't know why Ji Ling needs to sacrifice himself to end the drought.
