You should be watching this AND the Long Ballad

They are already reshooting a drama in Korea, due to problematic Ml who's a vicious shitty bully, much more serious than the mistakes in this drama, which could reshoot some scenes and still air. Fix mistakes and gain approval again. It can clearly happen. I n this drama it's not even necessary to reshoot the whole thing.

Just reshoot some scenes, they reshoot the whole Jisoo drama, which isn't as good. Korean nets are given too much power, not long before they kill ssomeone again.

Just reshoot the awkward bits, like they just did with the Jisoo Drama. This is far too good . These knets will be feeling powerful right now and Will be looking for the next victim. When you can affect the world like thus, it's Lord of the Flies all over the place.

Just reshoot questionable bits of Joseon Exorcist too and air!

ML is the sexiest man I've seen in a while . Voice, stature, poise, body frame, etc. This guy is pleasing to watch, he has presence. It's been a long time since I added a guy to fa favourite actors list, but I need to make sure that I remember this guy.
I'm too old for the tsundere bullshit, it wasn't necessary, because ML is so damned impressive anyway.

He is, he always has that naughty smile on.

I can watch this with my 6 year old daughter, she laughed a lot! She'd be lost in the other movie. Family friendly.

With his talent, I always wondered why he never got any leading man work.

He was supposed to be a little lacking, think about it.
Master put all his love, all his desires and wishes for the Empress, into a paper doll. So Master is lacking that human ~texture~ making him a whole being.
Master wasn't lying to her, when she asked about feelings, as he'd put them into this protector by that point.

The paper doll, well is still a paper doll, at the end of the day.
Obsessive, possessive and lacking that extra dimension making it human.
He is something else in Bloody Romance.

I really hope they sort this thing out with the Director. When it comes to making movies and drama, in this genre, he is unlike anyone else.
If you enjoyed this, watch L.O.R.D I and L.O.R.D II, the first is OK, the second really good,and the third installment would be fantastic no doubt, if he ever gets to make it.
~anxiety intensifies~

I assume the ML was too young to kiss on film, as they filmed this. There's a forehead kiss,and a kiss on the hand, that's it.

She's at her strongest, as she arrives into this pre-war world.
Her abilities have diminishing returns, she doesn't get stronger over time, due to the mechanics of the magic and also due to what I'll explain below.

The longer you stay, the more wrapped up in 'simply living' and the dramatics of just living life, you get.
She might've been 'something' during the war, but with feelings and living, she's a fish out of water. Love doesn't make her stronger.
Shes raised by a damned flute spirit!

This is simply explained in Meet Joe Black, where Death is on holiday, and gets wrapped up in 'life', love and just living, he nearly unbecomes himself.
He nearly stays to the point, where he could never return to HIS, and we NEED Death.
Their future needs Dongyue.

Dongyue is wrapped up in the same situation.
People get annoyed with her, not understanding this concept.
The more you partake in life...
She realised this too late, because she's not seen Death Takes A Holiday, Idk.
ML is an antihero, he doesn't care what you think.
He makes the right choices, which isn't apparent many times.
Is it nice? No. But he doesn't care, he isn't your hero.

I've waited so long for an antihero story, this isn't quite it, but it comes close enough!
I'll keep waiting for the proper antihero story.

I preferred Spike's personal journey, in Buffy, can you tell?

Is this the most underrated ML Chinese actor of all time? Possibly.

The OST is as good as that of the Wolf. They both have amazing OSTs, ridiculously high quality.
I honestly listen to them both.

If you only like fluff, this isn't for you.

Tag, FL is as beautiful,as MLis conniving.

You can, with standard viki pass. You can get a 7 day trial pass.

I agree. There are older, significantly older shows, in the genre that are better, in every way. When it comes to fx and storyline, I much prefer Ever Night, the first season. Over all, I still rate Legend of Chusen as the over all best genre drama, for also the message it conveys, not to forget the journey the ML goes through and where he ends up.
This is the best trailer for Legend of Chusen, that I could find.

@Polly I could see why, I've seen a lot of people pointing this out. FL is a plot device only, not an actual novel character in the strictest sense. People ship ML with almost any other woman, because FL is not nuanced.

There is supposed to be romantic interest -at some point- yet this is the worst chemistry between two actors, in a really long time.
They don't need romantic scenes, there's no kissing in Legend of Chusen either, and that is far superior storytelling, and chemistry than this drama so far, at ep 27. Even Ever Night had way better chemistry.
You need chemistry, bromance, or not.

The chemistry with the FL in The Wolf was intense! This is really the worse chemistry he's had with anyone.
Even in Oh My Emperor, as Uncle, he had oodles of charisma.

Lets not forget, end credits music is more eighties, than the decade itself.

Yes, this is an awesome ride.
