I live for this "bromance". I wonder if he will have a "bi"-awakening before it is revealing she is actually a woman. :P
Also, it's me or all those Princes are hopeless romantic ? Except maybe the one that was with the Xi He's half sister they are quite "faithful" to the one they love. Not that are green flags either, as they also doesn't seem to take "no" for an answer but regardless, I still find it odd for a period drama. :D
Please don't normalize the misogynistic writing. This is not the first time this happened. In Me and Thee the…
I don't think it's that deep. Especially since right after that comment, she is shown as highly capable. Also, while clumsy, this scene wasn't about saying "women are less capable" but more about the fact that Female Bodyguard are less common so they didn't expect she was also one - beside being a Personal Assistant. As Bodyguard is a man-dominated industry.
It's like the scene where someone hire a Nanny and a man show up instead. It's just not what you expect to see in a woman-dominated industry.
It's more about stereotype than the usual sexism (even if it's borderline).
A fun watch. It just hit all the spot that I like in a comedy. When I watched this, it strongly remind me of "Me and Thee" that aired not so long ago. A over-the-top & out-of-touch madly in love man over a more down-to-earth & calm character that bring balance to the couple.
The highlight in this drama was clearly Fu's antics but I also really enjoyed Tian's chaos & his "love life".
But not everything was perfect. A lot of storyline in this are unfinished. This drama have 2 side couples (Fu's brothers and their pairing) & like I said, Tian's storyline. Obviously, now I'm aware it's because of the OG work (it have 3 books) but it wasn't the case when I watched this. I rarely watch western TV series because of this reason: more often than not, they get cancelled and in the end, they are unfinished.
Anyway, I can recommend if you want something light. 8/10
She was probably strictly kept in the Prince's harem. Engaged women - especially to royalty - need to avoid any…
If she was truly a couple with the previous prince sure but as far as we know, she never loved him and I would even dare say they never consummate the wedding either. Basically, he was a forced roommate to her because of politic or maybe a friend. :P
is it not weird for a woman to actively live a married life with brothers of her husband including hubby's real…
She was probably strictly kept in the Prince's harem. Engaged women - especially to royalty - need to avoid any contact with others men except family and the usual eunuch. As for the little brother, I think at that time he wasn't in the capital but at war/at the border defending the realm. He just came back at this time because of the Princess and the Royal Wedding.
And she did know all those Princes, in name at least, as when she entered the Capital she already have full information (her "spreadsheet") about them.
And if you ask me, if she could just walk away and not be married to any princes, she would do just that. Except her marriage was probably an Imperial Edict. She cannot just say "no thanks, k bye!". ^^
And the others literally don't know she was the previous Prince Consort.
Oh god. The scene where he explain his r*pe... And that "Cut!". It hurt me physically. I was like Zhen Xin & Zhang Zhun who were still emotionally in the scene. I literally needed to take a break.
Needless to say, the subject was handle with care. It was raw but full of understanding and compassion. And they even acknowledged some very important topic related to that: How perpetrators can get away because victims cannot voice it because of how society regard them, how victims can feel pleasure even in those horrible events causing them to feel ashamed & guilty and lastly, the risk of STD & how some victims don't dare to get tested/treated ruining even more their life as aftereffect.
I'm still very emotional right now & yeah, I will probably remember this scene for a very long time. It's haunting tbh. This drama was good but now I'm just speechless. Both actors were fantastic.
Does this man really want to battle his little brother for this man, who is the love of his life? Is he serious?…
You mean Wenshu ? I feel he targeted Quigtian all along and just used Quiglang to keep contact with his little brother as he was completely emotionally unavailable because of his comatic boyfriend.
Compared to shine on me, he isn't even showing any toxic trait here. He was hella irritating in Shine on Me. At…
Yeah after checking I swapped them in my mind - don't know why as they aren't that look alike. Anyway, I didn't watch "Princess Royal" but I recall seeing him in "Perfect Match" as one of the MLs.
Kinda fun. Very short. Can be binged easily as it's a very light story. Clearly not a masterpiece and actors did OK even if I would say they played mostly themselves. I don't really have much more to say about this one except maybe watch it if you are really bored and don't have high expectation.
Oh god. I didn't see it was made by the same studio as "Tide of Love". No. Nope. I will NOT do that AGAIN. Even if those sexy bastards point a gun on my head... :x
Don't know what you exactly mean by "stupid, silly uke" but if I take it literally I don't see Wataru…
We know, you know, everyone know you just come here to bash on Gun for some reason. You could just have been honest but you decided to take the most "stupid" reason to make your point. If you cannot see how this scene was misleading for him and wasn't as straightforward as 1+1=2, that's on you.
I only have one question..Where do I get that song "Let me tell you a secret" that's played at the end…
Ngl, when I heard the title I automatically remember "Secret" (The Pierces) - the intro song of "Pretty Little Liars" - but they are completely different. ^^
But apparently all songs in this dramas are generated by AI.
She's 30, I doubt he'll be scandalized over it, lol.
Don't know about you but as parent it's often uncomfortable to see your children getting rowdy on top of his/her significant other with tongue action. It would be the same with a children seeing their parents doing that. Nothing wrong with doing it but I don't want to see it personally regardless of their age. :P
Don't know what you exactly mean by "stupid, silly uke" but if I take it literally I don't see Wataru…
Really, that your take on this scene ? Not the fact he was confused a first that his friend used the same line as in the movie they just saw ? Personally I would also believe it would be some sort of joke. Especially since the confession was a bit out of the blue. And even more as they are the same gender.
I think offgun put me off the "stupid, silly uke" trope forever. I love gun, i think he can act. But over…
Don't know what you exactly mean by "stupid, silly uke" but if I take it literally I don't see Wataru in any of that. He is quite mature for his age if anything. He also don't rely on Chiharu (or his friends) to function. Is it just because he is on the "cute" side ? I wouldn't even say he is effeminate (as some peoples have this issue with Gun).
Tbh, it seemed more like a random rant on Gun than a genuine critic on this drama. :x
I'm confused by the comments. This is a softporn series with a concept (omegaverse) which is the most perverted…
I don't think peoples have issue with what they tried to portray but how they did. They clearly tried to make "an uncontrollable urge to the point of even wanting to meld together" but what we saw was... far from being done correctly.
It should have looked sexy, not silly. The way they keep smacking randomly their head or that dry humping over cloth that lasted way too long making peoples uncomfortable was just not it.
And you said no penetration yet but we literally don't know as they skipped before anything happened. They said they will continue to have sex in the morning so they did more at least that what we saw.
But overall, I also agree with you, for me NC scenes aren't necessary for a good story. The issue with omegaverse is that they are kinda linked to the story itself. Anyway, I'm more annoyed by those subpar subtitle than this and I don't think we will see another "wild & uncontrollable sex scene driven by pheromone", so that's that.
