at Episode 17 and the way I look forward to Sang Jiu’s revenge on that hatefully jealous and evil Tian Huan… I imagine her reincarnations are just as detestable- especially the one 500 years later. I really hate woe is me self-victimizing people who bring about their own misery. I always root for their downfall.
Edit: At episode 32 now. Why won’t this chick die?! What? Are they going to give her a redeeming arc where she has some sort of epiphany and switch his sides to save her sister and the man she wronged? Typical. But I don’t want her to have another chance at redemption. I want her to just die.
Edit #2- sigh. I knew it. finally finished this and knew from my dreading of spoilers that this was gonna be a c-trauma- after I had already started watching it. The trauma didn’t disappoint. 😭
I’m a realist. I imagine this drama will only release after they cut out all heavy bromance scenes and glaring innuendos. 58 episodes down to 38-40. I’m sure the effort to edit would be massive and extremely expensive for an already expensive drama. It’s probably more cost effective to just shelve it until the far-off day when China’s conservative Confucianist president/ruler (I say ruler because of his decision to change laws and allow himself to keep his office indefinitely) decides to be more open minded. So many shelves censored dramas. Too bad he doesn’t realize how these shelves dramas would likely propel China into the global market on a scale that would put Thailand to shame. The craze over dramas like The Untamed and Revenged Love prove this. But by all means, let’s perpetuate this archaic belief that family can only consist of one man and one woman only. Because the world really believes this...🙄We fed finally get The SpiRealm though. So maybe there’s a fraction of a seed of hope? I’m curious why GagaOOLala hasn’t obtained the rights to this and other highly anticipated and desired shelved dramas.
I just finished Love in the Clouds n absolutely loved it 😍Do u guys think I’d enjoy this one too?
If you like HMH’s acting, you’ll love him here. The story is beautifully written and acted. It’s not a romance love story. Not really, anyway. More like the unfailing bonds of brotherhood (and sisterhood). Enemies to family. Every time I hear the OST, I’m compelled to return.
I seriously can’t move on from this drama. I keep revisiting to rewatch. It’s an emotional roller coaster but the actors really brought the characters to life. I was deeply vested from the first watch. I wish I could watch again like it was my first time. There aren’t that many dramas I truly believe that for.
I love the dynamics of the Ban family. I’m only on episode 18, but their interactions are entertaining. Ban Heng is the carefree type I love- reminds me a bit of Baili Dongjun from the early episodes of Dashing Youth (minus the copious consumption of liquor). Ban Hua is sometimes amusing, sometimes unbelievable in her actions. I like her less than her brother- not really rooting for her or against her. Ring Xia I love, though I’m trying to see more of this intelligent strategist that peaks out every once in a while. That easy confidence I love from HMH’s characters. I absolutely dislike Feixian. She’s too much. If it’s between her and Hua, I’m rooting for Hua all the way, just because Feixian is annoying as hell. Clingy and clearly missing all the signs that someone isn’t interested. Obsessive and possessive females- I dislike this archetype so much.
All that being said, it’s getting a little harder for me to cruise through each episode non-stop. The fact that there are 40 episodes is kinda unbelievable for me. It feels like 24 would work fine. I can’t imagine how they’re gonna weave this story more.
I love this drama so much. I can’t move on. I wish they had a second season, but understand why they’d end it with the special episode. Still, my greedy little FoF fan heart wants more, especially of ZYZ ❤️
Yet another drama from HMH that leaves me in my feels. It gives Fangs of Fortune all over again. And I’m one to keep rewatching episodes and scenes from FoF because I can’t let go. I’m holding off on Glory until it’s almost done so I can binge through the episodes in a couple of days. I hope it gives more LITC or BFTB than FoF and this one because I need it.
