The bathtub scene with Qi Min and Qianqian was filmed to perfection. It’d have been totally swoon-worthy if…
i think its a very layered scene. because over the soft visuals we had a violent dialogue. i also understand why their past encounter was revealed during this scene, the bathtub vs the pool. water is a symbol for qianqian. in the waters she's using her power. then u have the contrast between the fire (cause of trauma) , water and qianqian . She'll probably figure out a way to break him and take revenge.
Love the drama so far, but one minimum detail, How Chang Yu has not realize she got back her hair ribbon that…
my guess so far is that the scene where she notices and wonders had been cut from the edit... because its hard to believe it wasn't an important symbol
i think he did so much that he was trying to make his project work... what's weirder that the' not sent message'…
i think it was both okay and intentional. intentional because he did not look for a reply or call back... to keep a distance because he was 'trying' to not like her 😂
Very well said! People were complaining about how nothing is happening but they didn't realize the importance…
absoluuutely!! some cdrama take for granted the time we need as viewers to connect with the setting and the characters! i love that this show took its time to build up. the pace and flow of the story is soooo important! they nailed it in this show!
Deng Kai and Snow Kong definitely brought their A game for that scene. Qi Min was so scary. Just like when he…
it took me up to that scene to start being interested in their story . i am annoyed that we only have one 'glimpse' of the past, over and over again and no other information halfway through the show... but we do know she took care of him at some point. the sui are so evil i hope they never become a couple !!
That's true... she maybe shouldn't have realized right away but I assume it's been a couple days since she returned…
i agree with you about the mask, the context was very different. and me too i assumed there was symbolism over this ribbon !! so i stil lthink we'll see it again !
- 2 tiring episodes. Could have condensed them into one by reducing some of the screen time of the village killings.…
i think you're right... it was a bit out of character the delay into which they went looking for her sister, both ML. but i do understand the overwhelming situation for changyu at least! i'm also on the fence about the marquis not even leaving protection knowing sui knew about the fan family... it may be part of the original story in the novel? i think the writing still holds because they had a nice victory against the 'invasion' attempt the first time, but the second time it was catastrophic because the marquis was predicting another city to defend if i'm not mistaken!
Now for the depiction of war, last time I felt this way was when I watched My Dearest. That show and this show…
the mention of the colour grading and the cold tone when she enters the town was so intense, made me realize how everything is thought through in this production! amazing review you got there!
i don't like when they push the identity reveal too far!
it was okay so far especially when sui told her she is relationship with the marquis ... and she assumed its a mistake once is okay ... if they keep making this trope multiple times it will be hard to pull off without it being very very annoying or weak plot...
So proud of Tian Xiwei. May her future be bright. I wouldn't have continued watching if her acting was not up…
omg same! female general tropes are often messed up!and i don't know the novel so i didn't know that's where her character is heading 😅 but it makes sense, especially with a promo photo showing her in armour!
I follow Tian Xiwei's work attentively! she has proved herself in complex roles already! even if some shows weren't too well rated, i really like how she plays her role to the perfection!
guys isnt changyu aware all of a sudden the blue hair tie is back??
wooowww ! when he put it.. i was like okay yayyy a clue!! esp that it holds so much symbolism and exchanges between them!! and it was also carried by the falcon... and then... with everything happening even i forgot about it 😅😂 i just rewatched the end scenes and she doesn't have it anymore ! what a missed opportunity

what's weirder that the' not sent message' is that anyone would try to check for a reply when flight is over
once is okay ... if they keep making this trope multiple times it will be hard to pull off without it being very very annoying or weak plot...
i also thought nature&nurture!
