Except in the cave, when he says the people he was closest to were here. I wish they emphasized the friendship showing that the fight was not supposed to end in death. Will also make his relationship with Hu Fei more meaningful. I thought it was only because of guilt at first.

Who is Nan Lan? Is the she the daughter of the official with the golden sword?

Is Liang Je playing the daughter of Lin Yu Shen's character?

Once he finds out that there is a third party involved who murdered his parents, the one who planted the poison on the sword, I hope that happens sooner than later. They can investigate together. Miao Ren Fung is already calling him buddy and offered to be his master. I want the bromance now!

It was around 7am PST or a little before in the US. Was watching Ep4 & then noticed 5 & 6 were unveiled with Eng subs.

100% agree. Sloppy writing & a terrible wrap up even if there is a season 2, probably why it is such a mess of a season end. I truly do not understand the high ratings.

Your review is the most spot on for me. I skipped reading all the 9s & 10s, would not be able to stomach reading them.

I felt the start of some misgivings when I read the interview from the director when at the start of the airing of this drama that the Hong Sister were not finished writing and needed 10 extra episodes to get it right and then even more so when they took a week hiatus at EP 14 to finish writing. The Hong Sisters shows flashes of brilliance & originality in world building but can't sustain it. They need to add a third writer. And not to be given so much rope that they end up hanging themselves.

And agree with you on the character development, particularly Jang Gang, spending so much time making him an interesting nuanced conflicted character to let him crash & burn, not even sticking to their mythology. Who is the soul in his soul shifted body? It's not the former king, seems to be Jang Gang himself. It's infuriating & stupid.

And Buyeon, where did she go? There was so much richness to explore there, having her powerful character share the body of Mudeok with Naksu. And the mother of Buyeon, how many times do they have to bang her over the head for her not to believe that Mudeok is her daughter?

Also agree with the corporate greed of Netflix. Love that they're giving Kdrama content a global showcase, but at a price. It is not necessary to have a Season 2.

Thank you for taking the time to writing this review.

Thank you

I agree with the Ever Night being one of the best shows ever but for me only Part 1. Season 2 I could not finish, lost a lot of its luster for me when they replaced Arthur Chen.

100% on the Jang Gang return. Did not even make sense, he's a soul shifter so who is in his body? Seems like it was still him. They could have done so much with his return , his nuanced depiction in earlier scenes was all for what or naught?! Just to bring him back to petrify?:

Thank you!

Thanks. I loved the secondary romance with Xhaol Lusi & Liu Ni Ying

A Dream of Splendor. What is TLB & WRTW?

Thank you for clarifying! Why do you think the Cheng family is in jail? Was Shaosang's father somehow involved with Peng Kun?

I'm wondering the same too. I saw those previews.

Seeing Shaosang's family in jail, Wan QIqi visiting Shaosang's brother in jail standing by him. So much angst to come. (tears)

Previews EPs 43-44

Is Peng Kun Shaosang's uncle?

EP 40 - Who is Peng Kun? That last conversation Buyi asking Shaosang what if iaking revenge means hurting someone you love?

||Thank you for sharing! Put a big smile on my face :) I should have guessed from the robe color, lol Little turtle !

If "tragic couple" means sad ending or they don't get a HEA, can you please mark as a spoiler please. I was planningto watch it but now sure now. thanks.
