Wei Wuxian

This is my first drama of the type (Chinese with period and supernatural/martial arts). Generally, I stay away from almost all period cdramas because of the floating and magical/mystical elements being over-the-top ridiculous (to me- please don’t take offense). However, I watched XZG in Spirealm (which I loved), so wanted to give this a try.

At first, I was watching this like crazy up until ep19 because of the CGI reminding me of a video game (even though I don’t play video games at all), then I took a loooooooooong break. I just started watching it again. I’m just skipping through parts I don’t care about. This makes it more enjoyable, I think.

JCW and WHJ together on screen was something I didn’t know I needed. I sat on this series for waaaaaay too long. Mostly because it was yet another subscription I’d have to get. But the chemistry between them was “IT” for me. It really makes a drama memorable. The message about what the worst of evil is…I get it. Shades of gray for everyone involved. Everyone has their line, and when crossed, how can you go back? Can you? Something is sacrificed along the way. How much depends on how far you go from that line. I don’t think the ending could have been different without losing something.

I hope JCW does more of these gritty roles. I love him in romance, but something about that adorably handsome face playing a gritty role gets me. I’m a sucker for shades of gray men, what can I say? I saw The K2 and, while I didn’t really care much for Yoona (sorry), I loved him in it. Something about JCW makes me happy when he does action movies. And WHJ? My oh my, is his villain someone I can’t hate. Like, why was I conflicted. Him in Bad & Crazy? LOVED!

I’ve seen a few dramas with main lead chemistry like this. I need more. Maybe Buried Hearts? I gotta make my Disney subscription worth it, after all.

Sadness

Does anyone know the platform it’ll be on? Gor international fans? I can’t find it mentioned anywhere and it’s not showing up as “coming soon” on iQIYI, GagaOOLala, WeTV (Tencent), Netflix, or Viki. ☹️

This series is leaving GagaOOLala soon. ☹️

I agree. It’s giving mad cringe frfr. I wish they’d stop. Fans hyped it up so much for some crazy reason I can’t fathom.

I’m not sure what I just watched, but I echo the comments on here…What was the purpose of this? I see no point to it even being made. Dialogue was lacking, no chemistry, repeated episodes for no real reason.

OMG yesssss! I was ROLLIN through so much of it! The almost dry towel sponge bath was giving WTF. The dominance wasn’t dominancing. The romance isn’t romancing. The chemistry isn’t chemistrying. And the beef they all have with each other is middle school level at best. No way they’re college students. And yet…I can’t stop myself from watching. I can’t bring myself to drop. I mean, if I held out through Sangmin Dinneaw (with significant skipping), I will likely hold out on this one too. Mostly because there isn’t enough to grab my attention on Wednesdays…yet.

What in the SUBS?! But I’m seated even with the subs being a hot mess.

I would think that people from there would have better immunities to their own country though. I went to Thailand while in the Navy and they stressed the point that we needed to be careful of what we ate or drank because we aren’t used to the minerals and such in the water. Luckily I was primarily drinking alcohol, which probably helped “protect” me. Either way (good alcohol there for real- no watered down drinks to be seen)

Which makes the no lube even more worth pointing out.

LMFAO A&E! Youth definitely has its perks.

Oh I’m DEFINITELY here for it! 😊

OMG Y’all. I can’t with the cuteness factor of this series. I love it. Two extremes on Sundays with this cute show and then we have My Stubborn. Whiplash.

The other day I saw the clip of Aston talking about why he understands that people say ChokunAston instead of AstonChokun because Chokun is 185 with muscles and he’s 175 (or however tall they are) with dimples and I can’t with the 🎀✨🎀✨🎀✨overload!

At least no one is sick from the “toxic” rain Thailand apparently has, since everyone’s immune systems are shot to hell. Wait. I take it back. Didn’t Jun have a slight fever after being soaked in the rain during lunch and despite going horizontal with Sorn? The constitutions of our Thai boys is abysmal. All the better to release the fevers through physical activities that work up a good sweat, I guess.

Absolutely. He’s losing control and doesn’t really see or care, as long as Jun is his…exclusively. He’d let the world burn for Jun.

And Penny gets on my nerves. Like, why does he let her be so damn clingy?! Move biatch! Sorn belongs to Jun! June needs to hurry up and get her girl for real!

I’m loving this series WAY more than Top Form and I’m not ashamed to admit it.

No lube always kills me. Like dry? DRY DRY? And Jun can walk after that?! Absolutely not Honey. Sorn should be raw af too, with both of them limping around like they’re on fire, bull-legged and sensitive af because NO MF LUBE! Like How are either of them nonchalantly walking around anywhere?! Straight outta gay porn is right. Basic gay education (and common sense) for female writers is necessary.

I’m over Penny too. I dislike her more and more each episode.

I’m here for the manhandling. Our boy Sorn was HUNGRY! But he’s ALWAYS hungry when Jun is around.

He most definitely needs to let his hair down more. In every possible way😉 I tell you what- that phone would have been thrown so far down the hallway because why is it RINGING?! Absolutely not! And the knocking?! I’m not answering until I’m done. I wish I would. Jun definitely needs more lessons. He may need to be punished for his actions. 😉
