Yoo if you guys listen to the music in episode 7 around 9 minutes, there are moments that follow the same melody in Kung Fu Panda!!

Thank you for taking the time to help me! How does this expose him as related to the assassin though? He could just be trying to get the elixir for his lord's concubine? I thought the prince being sarcastic when saying oh I have to go prepare for the funeral of my precious concubine cause he knew he already had it. I can see the purpose but I don't get in actuality how it exposed him. Alsooo what does he have to do with the incident with the Teng rui? They were mentioning his involvement with Yu situation.

Someone explain what happened with the "go" scene in episode 4 , I get the gist of it (trying to root out someone on the assassin's team, turned out to be A'li), but I'm missing details.

I just finished and I enjoyed it! I haven't finished a show in a while. Here's what I liked and didn't like. Please EXPECT SPOILERS, but I'll try and keep it limited:
PROS:
* I was pleasantly surprised by the action scenes. I don't care much about action sequences in chinese drama cause they be flying everywhere, but they actually looked really good. I often stopped the 2X speed to soak it all in.
* The plot was interesting, I loved how the ML was tied in with both families, and Pingnan isn't the only bad guy. Made it more interesting, stakes higher as there was another bad guy in the kingdom. I also liked that he wasn't outright bad!
* There is this one song they play, an orchestral version of it whenever something huge is happening or about to happen, and it gives me chills. It's very powerful! The rest of the OST was also pretty good!
* I liked a lot of side characters, and the fact that we explored some of them more than others, got to know their personality, but not enough that I'm bored. As I am always interested in the main plot and main characters, we never strayed from them! For example, we got enough of the princess, fake xue dingfei, the king, the sister, etc..
CONS:
* I felt like stuff was missing. I didn't like the arc of the guard. They should've expanded on after he was caught by the Duke. The FL was supposed to help him get out, but no attempt was made, they didn't even mention him once they went on their expedition. He also DID NOT need to do what he did at the end there.
*So did the fake xue ding fei keep his name or not? I wish we could've gotten to know his real name, a better ending then him drinking on a horse lol
* People who hyped up the romance were wrongggg, don't watch it if you want romance romance. I liked how they kind of had a friendship after the first couple episodes, they had lots of friendly interactions, nothing really romantic, just like a problem-solving duo. I just did not feel the love at all from either character, I didn't see why they truly loved each other. ML was too much of a brute in love that it was more obsession, and the FL was just like why bro... At the end though, I still enjoyed it, but wish they gave better moments developing it.
* I need a little bit more about Wanniang, and her relationship with her mom and sister. I need an apology from blaming them but not blaming wanniang.
PROS BUT CONS:
* I did not like the FL initially, like how are you being a victim around your mother and sister when they tried to welcome you initally and you just hurt them. However, she did have moments where she realiezd she was wrong and went to apologize to the person. Like she apologized to ML after realizing she said hurtful things, and she often had moments of self-reflection. I just wish I had seen more regret from her, more self-hate for what she did.
* The ML was pretty good, but it did come off as cringe sometimes. I heard this is one of his best characters, and I would like to see him play more darker characters honestly. I just feel the emotions of the character didn't always fit the time and place.

I hope you all enjoy/enjoyed the show as well!

nah cause this poster is too cute

TF YOU MEAN FINALLY UGHHHHHHH

thank you i sincerely appreciate it!

8.1 is not a bad score but from the comments I see people like it and would expect more. Someone give me reasons why people might not be enjoying it other than the fact that its not a romance. Real reasons please :)

maybe Ive seen all the ones with wow factors hah, do you know any?

I'll check it out thanks :)

I hope so thank you xd

That's good to know, ill keep watching :))

I didn't realize what I was saying hurt anyone's feelings... I never said anything about their recommendations, I just replied as a conversation. I definitely am picky as you noticed, but that shouldn't stop me from asking people. Youre being ridiculous! I am am curious to know more about their suggestions so I ask questions instead of saying thank you and moving on. For kunning palace, I started the show after their recommendation and I just have questions about the show. I thought maybe I can ask these people cause they seem to like it so much they recommend it. Me not liking the show so far is not an insult towards them, its me asking them if I should continue. Its a conversation.

I wanted to ask cause I started it and her character still seems rude. Its hard for me to like her. In episode 5 her mom said the only reason she could become a tutor was of connections. Is she wrong though? the FL is like gaslighting her, like of course you would believe that, you dont think im capable of anything! But bro... that is the only reason, everyone is messing with you to get in. You don't study at all, all this information is from future you reading, not present you.. Does she improve her connection with her family? Apologise to them at least? Mom? Sister? The show makes it look like they are mean to her.

i dropped lethal man after episode one lol that punch was hilarious. It was too cringe for me tbh. According to comments it would have many plot holes

do you mind sharing whether her relationship with her sibling and mother improves? I feel like they are trying to make her seem like a victim, everyone is mean to her, when she was the rude one.

Okay I'm starting the show, finished episode one, I'm enjoying it and it's pace. I really hope she improves her relationship with her mother and sister. It's honestly so backwards her blaming the daughter for being switched and not the mother who switched her. Her own mother tried to be kind in the beginning so I'm not buying this bad mother act (using nanny to beat her). They however make it easy to see that she is trying to change her behavior and other people are noticing it. Another thing is that she is scared of the ML... why? Is there something I'm missing, you killed yourself? The entire time my impression of the show was that he killed her so she was afraid of him. He didn't even threaten to kill her, she offered herself up cause she had to die regardless.

I've seen unchained love and long ballad, liked them! out of the two, unchained love is closer to what Im looking for. Starry love seems like the best, but Idk about two couples D:

The reviews i see are poor though, regards to the ending D: I also heard spoiler spoiler spoiler for others (he loses his memory) I don't mind spoilers

Im planning on getting into The Kunning palace, but from videos i've seen im worried about the FL. I know past her was awful, but I appreciate bad characters when they have good development. I heard they don't show her regret or grief from her past self well.
