I'm so sad that the score is going down, I think the Tiansha arc was the only bad arc since the antagonist wasn't…
For me, the OTP and Taiyuan arc were like the only good things about it. And the writer totally forgot about many plots they introduced and just pretended they never existed. The seals, Uncle Zhou's gift to FY, etc... Some issues got solved without it being on shown on screen, they just assume that we know. Things like these.. I think that 8.9 is rather high for this drama. The only people think that this deserves a higher score are the ones that believe the romance is more important than the plots and logic, but I cant really turn blind eyes just because I love the OTP. I still gave it 8 and thats pretty generous.
I just want to make a comment on something thats been bothering me. Even though the drama shows us the plastic surgery can create new problems and that it does not result in a perfect life overnight, it is NOT criticizing someone's decision to get PS NOR it is telling us that PS is not the right answer (which I think many people here believe). Anyone has their own reasons and is allowed to do whatever they want with their body, and nobody has the right to blame them for it. Because if you can't change how the society treats you in order to live a normal life, then it is you that need to change. Just think for a min how sad that idea is. Thats why the purpose of the drama is to show us that the society is also the one that needs to change.
How does the drama show us? By addressing the hypocrisy, that the people who bully you for being ugly, will later judge you for getting PS. Sure it uses PS as a premise, but the main message of the drama is for society to stop focusing on outer appearance and to show us how "ideal beauty standards" can create distress on so many women, whether they are naturally pretty or not. For ex, SA and KS's mom are treated nothing like human beings with real feelings and dignity because they are too pretty. Any woman can be easily treated like a sexual object, and I appreciate the drama for making that social commentary.
And I want to tell everyone out there that instead of telling people to not get PS cause it doesn't solve everything and to love themselves when we even don't understand what they've been through, why don't WE first be more open-minded, and realize how narrow our standard of beauty is so that they DON'T have to resort to PS? In other words, try to change the way we think first instead of blaming the victims for our hypocrisy.
