It definitely would seem hasty if she got together with ML next week. That's the problem with a trauma bomb week…
I know it would be tall order to make it believable in last 6 episodes, when they didn't show much or any hesitance on FL part regarding her feelings for ML and other stuff like that. So, I believe 1-year timelapse will be enough for FL to find new job and bet back on her feet. Slow burn romance can follow after that with multiple scenes exploring FL past feelings for ML and how she was chasing to find the feeling of solace and security ML provided to her during childhood, trying to find him in her old boyfriends like her ex and lash out on them, when they didn't full fill the gap left by him/felt exactly like him. This plotline can justify lot of things, and it will be realistic considering their past but I highly doubt...we will get it !
I was also watching it from the beginning due to "Jung So-min" but I will put episode 9 & 10 on hold, till this whole debacle is over and they start the healing journey. Lol now I don't even care about romance between the leads at all and I hope she makes it up to her family and deal with the aftermath of her action. Hiding small matter is okay but something as big as cancer, when there is a high chance, your loved ones will only get to see your dead body is very harsh.
I duno Ex seemed like "Okay" dude to me and all the fault lies squarely on FL for not contacting her family and friends, with that being said ML should leave her alone and run away with tail between his legs. She is definitely not over her ex, didn't consider him important enough to share such an important information about her life (there was a high chance she would return in body bag) and even if she decides to get with him. It won't be cuz of love or anything like that, more like using him to move on. They should show us time-lapse of 6-8 months with ML busy with his life and FL slowly making moves to get together with him. They both need time to heal, process and un-wind this trauma and during this time. It would give FL ample time to think about her actions and make it up with her family members.
I can't believe the ratings for this drama is 8.6! MDL is unreliable when it comes to ratings...
You are right, it's way too high and whole thing is filled with multiple "cliches and tropes", unsupportive parents obsessed with success- Check Ever Green nearly virgin ML - Check Ex's coming back and being used as jealousy plots - Check FL acting hella stupid and siding with ex's who treated them like shit - Check ML love childhood best friend and out of nowhere FL also like him - Check Stage 4 cancer and dying trope - Check
The only redeeming qualities about it are leads chemistry and Jung So-min, so that's why it has 8.6 rating here. If it was a C-drama it would prolly be rotting in 7-6.5 rating but its k-drama so their cliches are acceptable.
Lol, you will like/love it but majority of comment section is having heart attack at ML's actions. I mean ML's are not "Ever Green Simp's" and they make good of their threats, FL ain't stupid or caged canary either by any stretch of imagination but leads are playing high stakes political game and FL had somehow found herself in the middle of it.
I read comments of this being the best historical drama of 2024, but is there historical truth in the drama -…
The battle, depth and magnitude of it, soldier armours and use of proper siege engines is historically accurate and apart from supernatural powers, the last episode is pretty well done. No it ain't best historical of this year but its better than some "Overhyped ones" out there.
Guys if you don't have WeTv subscription then I recommend you wait, till the HD version of ep 40 is released. There is an EPIC battle scene (which prolly used quarter of show budget) and it won't look good in low resolution. That scene alone can make up for half of stupidity in drama and its pretty well done and kinda highlight of the whole show. There was a big army, zombie swamp attack, they used siege engines (my long standing complain) and depth of the whole affair was superb, like how an ancient battle is supposed to look like. That event alone deserves 1 star in my book, please give it 8 minimum, there were faults due to chinese censors cuts but actors (FL) deserve recognition. I won't spoil the ending but as we all suspected, they "Scent of timed" us again and it can be considered very HE, we all know she has to go back someday, and I liked how FL completely overreacted in modern world, and ML was hella confused. What's wrong with this chick but guess what roles are reversed now. FL is leading commander of special forces and ML is avg joe, now power and status are in her hands, and she can order him around and detain him😂😂😂😂.
Lol are you an idiot I have watched uptil ep 38, I don't about Situ guy but HE DEFINETLY TRIED TO ML third time…
LOL, its female centric drama but it was ALWAYS THE ML who saved her in the end and you are blind...go watch your stupid SML guy and equally stupid FL 😂😂😂😂😂😂.
Lol are you an idiot I have watched uptil ep 38, I don't about Situ guy but HE DEFINETLY TRIED TO ML third time…
LOl she was NEVER OING TO DIE first time around, Chu Tian was planning to abduct her not KILL HER and second time, he feed her poisonous wine that activated her poison and she was about to die...then he saved her under the spring LOL ! It was their plan to abduct her and use her to force ML with her life and lure him into trap and second time if she died, he knew ML will kill his sister and he can't even save her from his own sister. This time FL never told ML about her rescue plan and ML SAVED FL BY SUCKING POSION OUT OF HIM AT COST OF HIS LIFE, FL DESERVED DEATH FOR walking into trap and killing thousands of his soldiers.
Lol are you an idiot I have watched uptil ep 38, I don't about Situ guy but HE DEFINETLY TRIED TO ML third time…
The guy is good looking and why he wasn't given ML role is beyond me but don't make him sound like a hero, he forces FL against her will. The SML actor can act and pull-off main lead role but due to some stupid reasons, he is always stuck with these pathetic side roles. Remember I hate the character, not the guy....dude deserves better career opportunities !
EP 38-39, FL after witnessing the firsthand account of SML trying to kill ML right in front of her eyes for the third time and saving his life with counter sound strike, still went on to look after him and I bet now they will make SML hero by saving her from HIS SISTER AND TRASH G.F. How she thinks stuff is beyond me, forget Situ guy without any shadow of a doubt he tried to kill ML and he was stuck if it was not for FL saving his life. Whatever ML mom did to him after that in revenge was good payback ! Just like in her classic fashion and complete lack of respect for her own husband, she refused to tell ML about her whole save his KILLER mission, got caught and eventually turn into their puppet, come out and tried to kill ML herself now. SO, she went from trying to save his killer to become his killer and even last time.....selected SML over him and sided with him. She killed hundreds if not thousands of ML soldiers, and this time without any shadow of doubt it was ML WHO SAVED HER BY SUCKING THE EVIL POISON OUT OF HER WITH HIS OWN LIFE, he happily sacrificed himself ! Mid you nothing of this would have happened, if she didn't decided to side with killer and didn't got herself captured, thousands of soldiers including shadow will be alive....if SHE JUST TOLD HER BLODDY HUSBAND AND THEY WENT TOGETHER but nope he has to find hard way and pay the price for her stupidity.
So glad that I didnt hate Li Ge. I told you he is not bad. Until the end he saved the female lead. And contrary…
Lol are you an idiot I have watched uptil ep 38, I don't about Situ guy but HE DEFINETLY TRIED TO ML third time by designing the sound barrier, its a bloody fact and if it wasn't for FL using counter technique and killing the other performers, ML was dead for sure! What saving FL, you mean save her from his own sister and trash g.f....he caused all the war and misery and I bet even in episode 39, he forced FL against her wishes and burdened her with unwanted saving. ML mother had every right to retaliate against him for attempting to take her son life. He ain't knight in shining armour cuz he forces people and try to kill their loved ones. FL was complete trash after witnessing firsthand account of him trying to kill ML and still tried to kill ML.
