For a story about booze, there's not nearly enough hilarious drunk scenes.

Agreed, except the alcohol theme is the whole point of the drama, hence the name "Moonshine" lol. This had so much comedy potential, but oh man, I'm disappointed.

Definitely nowhere near The Red Sleeve level. Alright to watch the odd episode as a filler drama. I hoped it would be a nice uplifting comedy, but it's not funny at all. The first episode seemed promising for a light comedy, but it quickly went downhill. It's alright to watch, but nothing special

I'm disappointed. The first episode seemed promising for a light-hearted comedy with a generous dose of slapstick, but 6 episodes in, it's just not funny... I also find the acting and chemistry of the ML and FL lacking... Meh.

I've watched Tribes and Empires. Beautifully done, the visuals and the acting were 1st rate, but they bit off more than they could chew with that one imo, which is a shame because despite the slow pace, I really loved it, especially the different worlds. It had this mysticism around it that made it so special. BUT oh man, they really could have created a whole wrapped up story in 75 episodes if they had sped up the pace a bit and dropped a few unnecessary extras.

I kind of agree that it lost a certain something that it had in the beginning. It was very witty and sophisticated and hard to predict. I'm not sure when it was exactly, but it became less extraordinary from a certain point. Maybe the Monastery when he gets the Dahuanting? The first few episodes were Ever Night standard, and then the quality sank imo... But it's still very good, just not extraordinary.

Hmm.... It's a mystery (that will soon be revealed no doubt lol)

Hahaha! Too true.
Do you remember who they said it was who made the bet? I can't recall. It couldn't have been Miss Hehe? I think her role in all of this is also more than it seems.

The photos look amazing. This looks like a high budget production...

I hope the food aspect will be interesting!

Until now, we don't necessarily know her true identity or her true motives. She was married to Lord Jing'an, Zhao Heng, but he told XFN that he married her to protect his son because he could tell she was up to no good... So, she has some agenda we don't yet know of.

We won't see him till XFN goes back to Bei Liang with epic skills to show off. Lol I bet, XFN will either have to convince him completely like with Ning Emei, or he'll end up being next season's villain competing for control of Bei Liang... We'll have to see...!
Next big stop is Wudi Cheng.

Yeah, that was epic. XFN helped him overcome the knot in his heart and he powered up!

Love that dude. Damn, that sword display in the last episode was epic. I'm have a sneaking suspicion that those notes by the front door were left there deliberately for him somehow... Probably all part of Xu Xiao's master plan lol.

Lol me too, but if there are seasons I watch them one at a time. I've bingewatched Minglan and my other fav C dramas more times than I can count. 😂

By the way, this drama is unlike any other K or C drama I have ever watched, so don't expect any cliches or typical drama formulas. There's a reason why it is one of the highest rated K dramas in SK and internationally. There's only one flaw imo and that is the blood.

Also, there are 18 episodes of 1h 20min. I think bingewatching one season at a time is enough lol.

No I think you can bingewatch it. I did. Also, what if there is a Season 3? 😂

That doesn't surprise me! Do you know what other dramas they have made?

It's not concluded, no. I haven't watched it for a while, so I'm a bit hazy about how the ending was. I think it felt like the conclusion of a chapter. The characters fulfilled part of their destiny, you could say. And the next season will be them taking on their new roles.... The beginning of a new era, of sorts.
