I really enjoyed this one ^_^ I loved the chemistry and the kiss scenes of the leads. They were so cute and adorable together <3 They made me squeal with delight <3
For the story, it's just a typical office romance and you must take it lightly and that everything ends up well. Plus, the leads already liked each other so that is ok.
However, if we take it more seriously and one of the characters wasn't willing, it's more about sexual harassment and power abuse at the workplace. I'm seeing a comment that 'WonderWisdom' wrote. I 100% agree with the comment.
For the forging of the contract, that was a low blow. I'm glad that they discussed it in the drama, that is not ok to do that. Plus, I loved that the vice president confronted Xia Shang Zhou and told him not to do that and he immediately told Yao Shun Yu. Thanks to that, our leads finally admitted their feelings to each other, so a happy ending to both.
Also, saying a statement of 'I've never been in love, so I don't know what to do or act' is not an excuse to go full on a person you haven't at least confessed to. Even if you have confessed, it still doesn't give you the right to kiss someone, etc without the permission or full agreement of the other person.
At the end, it is just a drama for BL fans like me. I can't say that I did not like these scenes, I 100% did like them :D But, I'm hoping nobody does these things in real life without the permission of the other person. At the end, this drama is fiction, and you can't copy that.
On a positive note, because I went all dark lol. I really enjoyed this drama and recommend this one ^_^
It wasn't the best, but it wasn't that bad, especially since some things were left unexplained. Like the transmigration was confusing. Like did Zhang Chu Xi, the female lead go into a male body? Or did she enter a female body acting as a male? I did not get it if it was explained.
The ending was confusing as well. Like ok, the couple met again in the modern times and happy ending for them. But what exactly happened? Reincarnation? He came back with her in the modern time, and he took another body?
Anyway, since it's a short drama, I will not dwell on it and take it as it is.
I love it a lot too but what really bugged me was when the FL got stabbed by her sister and they kinda just forgive…
Thank you for reading my comment and for your reply. But I recommend marking your comment as a spoiler as in my opinion, there are lots of spoilers listed.
Anyway, I do agree with you. It really bugged me as well when Bai Feng Xi got stabbed by her sister. I'm like, she knew her mostly all her life and she did not know how Bai Feng Xi is like, how could she? But then again, her sister mostly gets manipulated quite easily and hate does make you do unforgivable things.
Also, I did think of the flower. Maybe, it could not be used a second time on the same person? I don't know, as if I remember correctly, it was not mentioned again.
Yes, for the last fight scene, it was rushed, and it looked and felt like they wanted to conclude the drama.
There were some plot holes, and they did rush it in the end, but I did like it overall. Also, I agree with you that Lu Si was great. She's one of my favourite Chinese actresses ^_^
Honestly, it wasn't all that bad, I quite enjoyed this second season :)
I loved the first season when I watched it 7 years ago as the idea of it was interesting, light, fun and hilarious. But then I was younger, and I liked different things at that time, especially the cliche plots of k-drama.
This season took a darker turn, and I enjoyed it, as 7 years later I'm liking darker things and I do not enjoy that much the cheesy parts of k-dramas anymore. Honestly, I'm not watching that much k-dramas lately.
Ok, the vampires and werewolves were too much. But, even with the messy plot, I found it hilarious with the drama poking fun at the cliches k-dramas have and about the leading man in a drama. They made it a bit more exaggerated and had scary parts, but there was truth in it.
Also, the villains winning was interesting as well. Evan being on the same side as Seth was a major plot twist, I really did not see that coming. I really shipped Evan and Claire together. Wow, I really went in the wrong direction. And Claire and Joon were a huge mess, so who could blame me for shipping Claire with someone else?
Also, I found myself agreeing with some of Seth's perspectives and views. Yes, he went to the extreme side, but there is truth as well. But that's the problem with us humans, we always choose an extreme side, one side or the another. I do the same as well.
Ok, I did enjoy this drama. However, the disappointing part for me was the open ending of episode 10. It says to be continued, but will it? Like I'm curious what will happen next, but I'm afraid they will not continue it and it will leave me in the air. Uhh I hate it when there is not a conclusion! T_T
Anyway, I do recommend this season, but I think it's not everyone's cup of tea. From some of the comments below, some appear to like it, and some did not. I think you need to see it differently from season 1, as it totally went in a different direction. I did like that they changed it ^_^
I really enjoyed it! ^_^ I loved both couples <3 Their chemistry, kiss scenes and acting were really awesome! <3
For the story, it was good, but it was not perfect. I know that each episode was not even 30 mins and so it had to be short and fast paced. But, for once I have to say that it could have been fleshed out a little bit more and add more stories.
And I usually hate draggy plots in dramas. I say this as well because the plot was not just a typical romance, it mentioned the gangs and drugs, so for me it had to be more fleshed out. Maybe, I'm comparing the story to other BL dramas that have similar plot lines, so that's why I feel that the plot was a bit lacking.
Also, I felt that some parts of the story and some characters could have been given more depth and explained to us more. Like for example, Zhang Teng. He was an essential part of the plot, but we barely know about him. For me, they did not do him justice and he was just killed off, without barely knowing about him. At least for Zhang Teng's sister, I did not guess who she was and realized later when they gave us all the hints, so that was a surprise for me.
Anyway, I still enjoyed this drama. After all, we all know why we watched this drama in the first place <3 ;P
Finally finished! Honestly, I really enjoyed the story a lot, it was beautiful and conveyed beautiful messages.
However, maybe it got too political for me or there were a lot of names to remember that I got confused, but in the middle of the story, it got too draggy for me or too much for my simple mind. I had to put it on hold for a while and then continued it.
It's not that the story is not good, it is excellent, made sense and one thing led to another. But there was something about it that did not capture my interest that much. And I did find myself getting distracted with other stuff while watching the drama. However, I did not fast forward it at all, and watched all of it as you end up missing something from the story.
On the positive side, I loved the characters, the actors were great, and the acting was good. I also loved the music, the background, the costumes, the scenery, and the martial arts scene were excellent, really detailed and it showed that they put in a lot of work. I also loved the family feel moments, the loyalty and friendships between the characters <3
For the story, I enjoyed the palace drama, the plot about the 6 states and the imperial family, the martial arts world, the hidden identities, the schemes and plots for revenge, the ongoing plot and concluded with it for the missing token of the royal family, etc. As I said, the stories and plots were all interesting.
I especially loved the strong female lead, and I adored the Hei-Bai Feng Xi couple (I loved that their martial art names were similar). They were cute together! <3 And I'm glad that they defeated the main villain, ended the war, left their thrones, and retired together for peaceful lives ^_^
This drama made me feel all kinds of emotions. I laughed, smiled, cried, got angry, made me swear at times, made me swoon, got me touched, etc. I really felt injustice for those characters who had to die and did not deserve to die. It broke my heart, and I cried a lot! TT__TT
Honestly, I was never that interested to watch this drama. I got intrigued by a MV from YouTube and decided to watch it. But I'm glad I did watch it. I really recommend this drama ^_^
However, the story is not the best I ever watched. I did enjoy it, do not get me wrong.
But it's like they tried to make the story with twists and big reveals and that gave me high expectations, and in the end, it was nothing special. Like the big reveals and twists they were trying to show were obvious. I feel like I cannot explain it properly. Plus, the ending was quite rushed.
Although, the niece of Tinn dying was the saddest part and that broke my heart.
On the other hand, I really loved Charn and Tinn together. Their chemistry and romance were lovely, cute, and adorable <3 I also really loved their acting. The looks they gave each other, flirting, hugs, bickering, etc, they were beautiful <3 Yes, their kiss scenes were not that great with sniff kisses and the fish kisses, but I loved them together <3
For the actor playing as Thatthep, he was great as always. I love his acting and he always excels as a villain. For the rest of the cast, they were good as well.
I recommend this drama. It's not perfect, but I really enjoyed it ^_^
Finished in one day! I really loved the story, especially the ghost plot was interesting. It's a shame that they did not get into it that much.
Moreover, I loved the story, the chemistry and love of Gu Bu Xia and Jiang Chi. They were so sweet, cute, adorable, and lovely together! <3 <3
For the ending, it was left open. It's quite interesting if they make a second season and focus the plot more on the ghosts. And now Jiang Chi can also hear the ghosts, I'm curious about the message the ghost wanted to give him.
Finished! I really enjoyed this drama overall :D I liked the story, cast, characters, acting, backgrounds, costumes, martial arts, couples, and a happy ending ^_^ I also really enjoyed the modern references, they were hilarious in a historical context :D
I did like this drama; however, 30 episodes were too long, and it had a lot of filler episodes. Ok, most of them were hilarious and I did enjoy them, but at times it lost the purpose of the main plot and I just fast forward those scenes.
Also, what I'm disappointed is the final battle between the villains and Kui Mu Lang. Ok, Qi Pa powered him up with her blood (because of the Holy Pearl being inside her for 5 years I assume it made her blood powerful) and he defeated the villains, but it ended quite quickly. It's not that I wanted the villains to win, but we spent almost all the drama leading up to it, and it ended quickly. Like I don't know what I wanted to see, but I wanted something more.
Like we only saw Su He gets killed and defeated by Kui Mu Lang. While the mysterious man, aka Su He's father and the woman helping him, were lying on the floor defeated and practically that's it. We're just told that the other 2 were executed.
Moreover, they killed off Ma Ying Xiong. I was so sad. Chun Er and Ma Ying Xiong could not end up together forever T_T
At least all the couples finally did after being in love with each other all throughout the drama :)
Anyway, this drama is not perfect, but it is enjoyable and hilarious. It is mostly light and positive with some sad moments. And it is a bit long, but I do recommend it ^_^
It's not necessary :) One thing worth knowing maybe is that the FL's mom is from the present times, so the FL…
Thank you for this response, I was looking for it ^_^ I thought that this drama continued with the Go Princess, Go! (2015) and couldn't watch this one. I'm off to start this drama :D
I loved it! They were so cute and adorable! <3 I loved all couples <3 Their chemistry and kiss scenes were great, they have really done well ^_^ I really had no expectations at all, and I enjoyed it ^_^
I can say that I loved the story of the Korean version more than the original Thai drama. It was executed better, and it made more sense. However, I do remember some scenes from the Thai version that they included in the Korean version, it was nice to see ^_^
In the Thai version, the story deviated from its original plot and went into a different direction. Although I did love the couples together in the Thai version. Also, if I remember correctly at that time, it was the peak of covid and they had to cut pieces from the drama because of it, and so the story got lost.
I enjoyed this special! It was cute and adorable <3 They gave us a satisfied ending for Namnuea and Lom and it was nice seeing all the characters together ^_^
Watched it in a day! I did enjoy this drama overall; it was cute to watch.
However, the plot in my opinion was complicated for nothing. Like the plan Yiwa and Lom came up with was lousy and painful. Like I felt that Lom was insulting Namnuea and his job as a wedding planner. It made me feel sad and painful. But, Namnuea accepted it, so let's leave it at that.
Also, I get that it is difficult to open to your family, especially if your family is close minded and traditional. I know it's hard, but it gets harder the more you lie and makes you feel anxious and bad inside.
Yes, this drama is light, and it ended well, with a twist of Lom acting that he is sad, etc to lighten it up and make it hilarious. Plus, Lom managed to get his mum to accept Namnuea, so that's a win.
However, I did not agree with Yiwa and Marine running away. What was the point of the wedding if she ran away? They should have cancelled it, stood their ground, and said what they wanted to say. Then, if the mums continue not agreeing, then you do what you must do. At least, you fought for it. Ok, easier said than done, but I wish that it could have gone in that direction.
Anyway, I did enjoy this drama overall, plus it's short so it's not draggy. It's a drama purely for fun and entertainment, plus the kiss scenes were great <3 Up to you whether to watch or not, it's a fast watch for sure :)
Although the story was not perfect, it had draggy scenes and I had to distract myself with something else while watching the drama, but I really enjoyed the story. It made me cry, laugh, smile, get angry, be sad, etc. It made me feel lots of emotions.
Also, I'm happy that the main couple, Lu Zhao Yao and Mo Qing/Li Chen Lan managed to end up together despite all they went through, the obstacles and accusations they faced.
But I'm sad that the other characters and couples did not end up together as one of them may have died or did not reunite together. And there were lots of characters who I liked who died and that made me sad. You can say that this drama has light moments, but it is mostly serious and not a happy ending for all characters.
Anyway, I also really liked the cast, characters, acting, costumes, background, fighting scenes, the martial arts, the music, the CGI, and the production. They did a great drama.
It took me 3 years to watch this drama and I'm glad I finally did ^_^ I recommend it! :D
I watched and am still watching the anime and I really love One Piece. I was afraid of this live action. However, the live action was awesome and was close to the anime :D
Yes, there were some changes to the plot, some changes to the main character's back story, some characters missing (like Hatchan, the octopus fish man), some changes to the main characters physical appearances (like Usopp's nose, Sanji's eyebrow, etc), made the Straw Hat pirate crew weaker (as in the anime they were a lot stronger in the East Blue arc) and the East Blue arc plot was really fast forwarded compared to the anime (like they summed up 61 episodes of the anime into 8 episodes of the live action).
I'm not complaining though, I loved the live action. It was excellent and done well to suit the live action. As in my opinion if some things in the anime were done exactly in real life, it would look weird. Like I love how they toned down a lot of Sanji's obsessiveness with women and made him as a flirt. If they showed it exactly like in the anime, it would have been weird and creepy.
I especially loved how they managed to make most of the characters look and feel the same as in the anime. Of course, I watched this live action in Japanese dubbing with English subtitles as I felt that I could not live up to the full experience of One Piece if I watched it in the English language.
I felt that it would sound weird to me in English since I watched the One Piece anime in Japanese with English subtitles. Like I could not bear to not hear the word 'Nakama'. Find me weird, but I love hearing it. And I could not imagine the fighting moves said in proper English. Technically the Japanese say them in English, but in their own way, which sound awesome. I know I'm weird :P
However, maybe someday, I'll rewatch the live action of One Piece in English, while we wait for season 2. As I'm assuming that it will takes at least 2 years to come out as Netflix always takes that long between each season of any of their series.
I recommend this live action! Even if you did not read the manga or watched the anime, you would still get the gist of the story and it is pure fun, adventure, friendships, and excitement :D
Btw, Buggy’s character was done well and was creepy. He made me shudder, the first time he split his body into different pieces. In the anime, it was light but in the live action, it felt dark until I got used to it. But I liked him, I'm not complaining.
Anyway, great production, great CGI, great fighting scenes, great costumes, makeup, great cast, characters, great acting and I love the Going Merry ship ^_^
But it had draggy moments, and the story was not that perfect. Like some parts of the story were lost, especially the story around Redrin, the evil one, the group Hongwoodaedae and Rembrary. Like I kind of expected more of it since for me that was the interesting part of the drama.
However, overall, it was not bad. I liked the cast, characters, acting, the wild animal group, the entertainment parts / idol parts and the comedy moments were hilarious and made me laugh out loud.
The last episode was nice as well, as the villains were defeated. Plus, for a moment I thought the leads would forget each other, but they remembered and a happy ending for all.
You can say that it's not the best drama ever, but it was enjoyable :)
1 
For the story, it's just a typical office romance and you must take it lightly and that everything ends up well. Plus, the leads already liked each other so that is ok.
However, if we take it more seriously and one of the characters wasn't willing, it's more about sexual harassment and power abuse at the workplace. I'm seeing a comment that 'WonderWisdom' wrote. I 100% agree with the comment.
For the forging of the contract, that was a low blow. I'm glad that they discussed it in the drama, that is not ok to do that. Plus, I loved that the vice president confronted Xia Shang Zhou and told him not to do that and he immediately told Yao Shun Yu. Thanks to that, our leads finally admitted their feelings to each other, so a happy ending to both.
Also, saying a statement of 'I've never been in love, so I don't know what to do or act' is not an excuse to go full on a person you haven't at least confessed to. Even if you have confessed, it still doesn't give you the right to kiss someone, etc without the permission or full agreement of the other person.
At the end, it is just a drama for BL fans like me. I can't say that I did not like these scenes, I 100% did like them :D But, I'm hoping nobody does these things in real life without the permission of the other person. At the end, this drama is fiction, and you can't copy that.
On a positive note, because I went all dark lol. I really enjoyed this drama and recommend this one ^_^
The ending was confusing as well. Like ok, the couple met again in the modern times and happy ending for them. But what exactly happened? Reincarnation? He came back with her in the modern time, and he took another body?
Anyway, since it's a short drama, I will not dwell on it and take it as it is.
That's true, especially since the Master, aka her father relied more on Bai Feng Xi than on her.
Yes true, it was crazy, like she did not even try to stab her somewhere else, but in Bai Feng Xi's heart or close to it.
I did not read the novel, so I do not know what was changed in the ending. I can't comment on that, sorry.
I'm glad you did so, thank you ^_^ I love discussing dramas too. Most of the times, I'm discussing to myself lol.
Anyway, I do agree with you. It really bugged me as well when Bai Feng Xi got stabbed by her sister. I'm like, she knew her mostly all her life and she did not know how Bai Feng Xi is like, how could she? But then again, her sister mostly gets manipulated quite easily and hate does make you do unforgivable things.
Also, I did think of the flower. Maybe, it could not be used a second time on the same person? I don't know, as if I remember correctly, it was not mentioned again.
Yes, for the last fight scene, it was rushed, and it looked and felt like they wanted to conclude the drama.
There were some plot holes, and they did rush it in the end, but I did like it overall. Also, I agree with you that Lu Si was great. She's one of my favourite Chinese actresses ^_^

I especially loved the strong female lead, and I adored the Hei-Bai Feng Xi couple (I loved that their martial art names were similar). They were cute together! <3 And I'm glad that they defeated the main villain, ended the war, left their thrones, and retired together for peaceful lives ^_^
This drama made me feel all kinds of emotions. I laughed, smiled, cried, got angry, made me swear at times, made me swoon, got me touched, etc. I really felt injustice for those characters who had to die and did not deserve to die. It broke my heart, and I cried a lot! TT__TT

Although, the niece of Tinn dying was the saddest part and that broke my heart.
On the other hand, I really loved Charn and Tinn together. Their chemistry and romance were lovely, cute, and adorable <3 I also really loved their acting. The looks they gave each other, flirting, hugs, bickering, etc, they were beautiful <3 Yes, their kiss scenes were not that great with sniff kisses and the fish kisses, but I loved them together <3
For the actor playing as Thatthep, he was great as always. I love his acting and he always excels as a villain. For the rest of the cast, they were good as well.
I recommend this drama. It's not perfect, but I really enjoyed it ^_^
Moreover, I loved the story, the chemistry and love of Gu Bu Xia and Jiang Chi. They were so sweet, cute, adorable, and lovely together! <3 <3
For the ending, it was left open. It's quite interesting if they make a second season and focus the plot more on the ghosts. And now Jiang Chi can also hear the ghosts, I'm curious about the message the ghost wanted to give him.
Definitely worth watching this drama! :D
I did like this drama; however, 30 episodes were too long, and it had a lot of filler episodes. Ok, most of them were hilarious and I did enjoy them, but at times it lost the purpose of the main plot and I just fast forward those scenes.

As in my opinion if some things in the anime were done exactly in real life, it would look weird. Like I love how they toned down a lot of Sanji's obsessiveness with women and made him as a flirt. If they showed it exactly like in the anime, it would have been weird and creepy.
I especially loved how they managed to make most of the characters look and feel the same as in the anime. Of course, I watched this live action in Japanese dubbing with English subtitles as I felt that I could not live up to the full experience of One Piece if I watched it in the English language.
I felt that it would sound weird to me in English since I watched the One Piece anime in Japanese with English subtitles. Like I could not bear to not hear the word 'Nakama'. Find me weird, but I love hearing it. And I could not imagine the fighting moves said in proper English. Technically the Japanese say them in English, but in their own way, which sound awesome. I know I'm weird :P
However, maybe someday, I'll rewatch the live action of One Piece in English, while we wait for season 2. As I'm assuming that it will takes at least 2 years to come out as Netflix always takes that long between each season of any of their series.
I recommend this live action! Even if you did not read the manga or watched the anime, you would still get the gist of the story and it is pure fun, adventure, friendships, and excitement :D
Btw, Buggy’s character was done well and was creepy. He made me shudder, the first time he split his body into different pieces. In the anime, it was light but in the live action, it felt dark until I got used to it. But I liked him, I'm not complaining.
Anyway, great production, great CGI, great fighting scenes, great costumes, makeup, great cast, characters, great acting and I love the Going Merry ship ^_^
But it had draggy moments, and the story was not that perfect. Like some parts of the story were lost, especially the story around Redrin, the evil one, the group Hongwoodaedae and Rembrary. Like I kind of expected more of it since for me that was the interesting part of the drama.
However, overall, it was not bad. I liked the cast, characters, acting, the wild animal group, the entertainment parts / idol parts and the comedy moments were hilarious and made me laugh out loud.
The last episode was nice as well, as the villains were defeated. Plus, for a moment I thought the leads would forget each other, but they remembered and a happy ending for all.
You can say that it's not the best drama ever, but it was enjoyable :)
