to Lu Yu Xiao the actress playing Hu Xiu - thank you for making the character so relatable. When you broke down and cried twice .. esp the scene in front of your parents that you cannot ignore your feelings and you just want to be there for the ML - girl, i feel you. The heart ache is real
Let's vote for the best kiss scene. to me definitely 1. when ML kissed the FL at the alley in rong cheng- finally coming to terms that he cant have FL move on without him in his life 2. the goodbye kiss in front of the office - that was so passion infused. can literally feel FL being so sad, realising they will be parting ways for a while.
Oh this is the cdrama that got me out of a slump. Something about the main lead chemistry and story line that…
agree... swoon worthy is the word to describe CXX. i dont know how he can look so gorgeous in the drama. prob the hair styling. he looks esp good in his commander outfit and when he wear glasses and looking alooft. real life .. he is a bit more "goofy".. and i mean it in a good way. he looks like the guy next door, super friendly and have a good sense of humour. he is also a gentleman - evident by how he continued to hold xiao xiao during the hi 6 appearance - despite being in pain standing on the reflexology mat.
this drama have been head over heels for days. waiting is like torture. I love that the FL actually told of Pei zhong in a nice way , not to make use of her to get to his brother. i think that is the moment he has new found respect for her. and potentially turning having an interest in her, to probably liking her a bit more. In my opinion. As for the ML and FL - the slow burn is killing me but it makes sense. and i cant wait until they finally get together.
my thoughts- ep1 - so fast past, trope ridden - i was about to write it off. Ep 2 - still a bit tropey but i told myself now that they reveal everything, what else is up their sleeve? EP 3 - ah there it is... finally something anew, didnt see the twist coming from the left councillor daughter and the beautiful way it was film during the horseback riding scene and the acting from Kang tae Oh , ep 4 - now the story gets moving and even more fascinating - conclusion - cant wait for more episodes to come and glad i didnt drop it immediately
Ever since watching Lovely Runner, Brewing Love, and Hidden Love, I’ve been searching for a modern rom-com that gives me the same heart-fluttering rush—especially as a xianxia fan who loves sweeping, emotional romances. And this drama delivers effortlessly, wrapping me in its warmth and leaving me giddy with every episode.
The sweet, aching longing between the leads—so close yet unable to confess their feelings due to circumstances/fate—has me utterly hooked. I find myself counting down the days for new episodes, completely invested in their journey. Now, at the halfway mark, I’m on the edge of my seat, desperate to see how their story unfolds. Hope the rating improves!
i pass on this drama earlier when it was running as i was not familiar with the leads. but then after watching clips with Ryan Ding Yu Xi and Meng Zi yi- my fav, i decided to give the series a try. currently at ep11 and wow.. just wow... visually arresting. not just the cast but the whole production. i especially love close up shots of the way the director zooms into the character's lips to show the slight smile.... very interesting indeed. also dont get me started on the fighting... poetry in motion. so far the storyline is keeping me up late into the night.
They have had a connection since childhood (Jinxiu and the Camellia). When Jinxiu was watering the flower and…
i appreciate you taking the time to give me perspective. to be honest, i did notice his attachment to the flower, his companion, growing up while being molded to be a ruler. I guess him going beyond to watch over her and protect her is love? Granted he is such a "boy" when he is in love. he is showing a different side of him. But still cant seem to fathom how hong ning came to love him. she was always talking about repaying him. then suddenly it was Love
just started rewatching again after the first couple of episode. currently at ep10. i still cannot seem to link how Jinxiu can suddenly agree to marry Hongning - i mean he should know better how strict his father is and there should be more contemplation as he came across as a real serious character who is fair and uphold justice. and then there is hongning - dont know how her admiration suddenly turn to love? she claims after experiencing the life of a fallen deity she has discover what love is. that episode was so choppy i cant even follow what was happening. someone please clue me in, is there something i didnt see?
ep14 was soooo boring. it was a masterclass in science, and astronomy though if you are into these things. i will now call ep 14 as the time when the FL and ML went into an escape room.
i can't believe i am still obsessing over this drama. came across this youtube short and its very cool. shows the parallels between YSY and MCQ/RR relationship- https://youtube.com/shorts/z2ECdVC9iOY?si=91Bl8_dx6CC6K7Dn hope this drama gets the recognition it deserves
