Trin & Tanwa

I’ve never met anyone who thinks 39 is old for the ‘acting industry’ - after all, Meryl Streep is 76, Judi Dench is 90.

I’ve never met anyone who things 39 is old for the ‘acting industry’. Meryl Steep is 76. Judi Dench is 90.

A serviceable ending albeit rather sweet. An extremely meandering journey and could have been handled more effectively in 8 episodes.

It takes a significant level of hate to abuse your spouse, I’d say that qualifies as emotional. The emotional response triggers the physical response.

The domestic violence statistics would beg to differ.

At this age? Geez. She’s 39 not 99!

There were some strange script decisions towards the end.

- Why did the 2nd male lead keep the governor’s daughter around? Also, given that her father was treasonous, shouldn’t the whole family be punished?

- why did the emperor suddenly go from kind and straightforward to the kind of nasty bastard who forces brave military men to announce the marriage of their true love to another? it smacked of ‘New writer, who dis?’

- splitting up the armies and potentially letting your enemies win is preferable to two generals having a little too much power?

Weird.

Finished and I liked it, however…

I’m watching it now and I’d say she’s definitely playful but not what I would call ‘childish’.

I’m enjoying this, however, people not being able to tell the difference between Yan and her much taller and broader brother has all the believability of Red Riding Hood mistaking a ravenous wolf for her sweet grandmother.

Never underestimate the emotional hold nostalgia can have :)

This! 100% - the notion that women are their own worst enemy ignores history and every branch of common sense.

How are adults supposed to act? Are there rules we need to follow?

No MDL history, no opinion.

What exactly is your definition of a woman? You seem to be so sure that there is one narrow meaning for everyone who identifies with that gender. Why are you so sure a high voice is ‘unnatural’?

She has a higher voice than some other women. That’s not a child’s voice. Stop buying into the patriarchal notion that women’s voices should be silenced unless they fit a certain criteria. At some point you’ll realise they aren’t the problem, you are. Be kind.

This is the comments section of drama website. If you comment negatively on the looks of someone you don’t know, someone will want to point out that it’s not a nice thing to do. Happy people don’t try to make others feel sad. Be kind.

People who have problems with their self esteem tend to lash out at others. They'll grow up at some point.
