I hear ya. I was just trying to reach certain number of dramas and series watched by the end of this month so I finished whatever I could. But I agree - some of these stories are just bad (ie Everlasting Longing with ever wooden Song Wei Long and Angela Baby. Come to think of it I liked her only in Back for You because she was in coma for 6 out of 12 episodes)π€£ππ
at 19 it is rather mundane - this drama relies on shock value in plot twists and turns and not good storytelling. I think I will go back to other things and marathon the rest of it later
oh yeah! I dropped it because it was trying to be epic with all that suffering - similarly Brocade Odyssey did that (and I dropped it as well). I think along with the plague of rebirth stories in c drama this year we also will experience the plethora of human misery both on inflicting and receiving site. I am warning everybody about Deng Hua Xiao which (while a brilliant novel) is really hard on any reader. I mean torture of puppies, children and garden variety of abuse (sexual, physical, emotional)
Itβs crazy how every episode in this drama gets me speechless like EP18 & 19 were insane omg so many plot twists…
I am wondering myself. After seeing trailers for 20 and 21 I think it will be shocking and unsatisfying as most c drama endings are, unfortunately. We will probably see them starting a new life with hope and without the crazy daddy eunuch son and that part of the fam. Concubine will be shortly at the helm but then something unexpected will take place and that will be ep 30. OR we will get s2 next year
If it was me. I would become like a mouse and escape. Yah, this is one of those scripts that it is overwhelming…
I have not read the book, but I understand this drama is just based on the book and dismissed most of the stuff but kept the gore and unrelenting harshness of unjust world. I gotta tell you Deng Hua Xiao is a bit like this - except the FL there does not want justice through the official channels, just killing people who are guilty quietly and systematically. This script is showing more of futility of average person trying to be just and despair of those who abandon morality to get their own justice and (surprise!) fail, nevertheless. The most important message in all of this is mother's health - you have to let go of the past and live for more than just revenge as when you plan revenge you always have to get 2 coffins ready.
the little girl is amazing! I am here just to see her after her performance in the currently airing The Glory. She is another natural like Tong Tong - and look cute as a button like her fantastic predecessor
omg! I can't watch - he threw the bear into the pool. No way! What a brute! This is such tremendous tragedy!ππ€£πOK I just wanted to know if there is anybody watching who drew the line at the bear abuse when dropping
Hahah I now used to it he will probably be undressed always. π
someone heard him say he wants to start different stuff. His Up in the Air is supposed to be fantastic, and he is not undressing there at all! I WANT TO SEE THAT ONE to appreciate his acting rather than 6 packs. Alas, it's not out for the west yet. But I am hoping!
in a few days on IQYI which means any streaming services will have it. You may even catch it on YT
i have IQYI premium (not on YT) in the midwest and more often than not go without VPN. In 2 days it's going to hit or you can find it by typing the name. Try IQIYI free app just to see if it shows with a lock - that means it's available for subscribers BTW don't buy it - it's overpriced and short on new releases
Dai is killing me. I am watching him in Sadistic Love on air now too. This man is too hot! How many times will…
we should probably put that list (how many times we see his abs in each episode of each drama) on his page. And we could vote which was the sexiest!ππ€£π
