Great Villain aside from the Hero plays a huge role or part in the drama. It would make the conflict of the plot more satisfying if an antagonist does his/her job to annoy and infuriate us. I agreed that TPOB lack good villain.

Yes, love it 😍. They really have great chemistry since gogo squid days. After the bath scene, a blood pool is coming. Be prepared.

And that was gruesome stab to death massacre and blood pool 🩸 why? 😭

I watched many clips that show parallelism with these two dramas of theirs 😍🧡💜

The kisses and romantic scenes are beautiful 🤭😍😘💋 sorry spoiler

This drama is bipolar yet still amazing to great extent. Love the cast acting, it tugs your ♥️

It’s far better that way. I also binge-watched Flourished Peony for 3 days and I am very happy and satisfied. I was not active or did not join the discussion in FP thread while it was on-going. So I said, I will watch this realtime so I can share feedbacks for Part 2. But honestly, this thread is a let down. You will not be inspired to watch. So just binge-watch it at your own pace and comfort zone. For sure you will enjoy this drama. 🌸

Don’t have complain, now it has complain again. Lol! 🤣

The villain screenwriters will say to you, “Conflicts are part of the plot, without these, there will be no drama.”

“Tell me, a drama that has 56 episodes and with that length, there are no conflicts or any misunderstandings at all between a couple, how will the story progresses.”

Whereas, a drama that has 36 episodes or 40 episodes, has all misunderstanding trope although out.

So now,
The antagonist screenwriter will tell you, “Which is far better?”

Because the writers are telling you, “Patience is a virtue.”

Yes or could be higher after this drama ends 🌸

There are five distinct love languages: physical touch, words of affirmation, gift-giving, acts of service, and quality time. If you watch Flourished Peony and In the Name of Blossom, in which of these languages of love, does every scene of Mudan & Jiang Chang Yang is. I can’t fathom what other viewers keep on complaining about being together, skin-ship, physical intimacy, admission etc as the basis of romance. Probably, you don't know the love languages. If anything Mudan and Jiang Chang Yang have is one of the MOST HEALTHY AND MATURE RELATIONSHIP that I have watched in a cdrama. Their falling in love is not toxic, it is organic and stable. They might be flaws but the “love” part doesn’t make them like lovesick puppies or it dull the male or female lead. And now that they are finally together and have all these kisses, another complaint arises, that these romantic and fluffy scenes is like an afterthought idea, squeezed or force. Seriously?! 🤷🏻‍♀️ this is the rippling result of watching so many love stories and fantasizing romance that blind-sided viewers instead of emphasizing the other facets of a drama.

It was you who need the couple to have physical contact for it to be called romance. And now that it has. So what are you going to complain now

It is called conflict of the plot in this drama

No, it is not a very few or least but many are complaining here in the comment section including YOU.

And who told you that I don’t like physical intimacy? It just that your romance understanding is superficial. Like it needs to be openly and over the top.

The context is about the viewer who feels that the writers squeezed the romance part. So I answered that their relationship grew over time and now that they have this confession, it feels more genuine. Without romance, complain. Now that it have, complain again. Why not try look at the outside or yourself that perhaps this drama might not be for you? There are even drama that got together at much latter episodes and the whole time they have a wall in between ex. The Princess Gambit. The romance part is not as bad as it seems if you have watched other proper long historical drama. The ongoing episodes and more still have love scenes
to begin with. If you want to watch drama that they are together early, The Blossom, The Prisoner of Beauty., etc These love story drama will befit that romance cliches and tropes

Have you seen the long burning candles? 🕯️🕯️🔥 👀🤣😘🤭 and none is allowed to leave the room until then. Lol

They are a powerful duo, a force to reckon without “officially “ being together. Even without that tag, Mudan and Jiang Chang can achieve their goals as individuals or as a couple. It is not a prerequisite to shout to the world that they are an item to cause change. If anything, their relationship is more realistic because it develops gradually. If you want this kind of trope, The Prisoner of Beauty is best fitted for you to watch or any drama with this kind of genre. Because, In the Name of Blossom and Flourished Peony are different from your expectations, they are proper cultural and historical, business genre dramas.

Thank you for your insights. 👏🏻 This is what I call people who are truly watching the drama. Now, we can have proper feedbacks instead of all I see is waiting for the smooches to happen or for them to finally get together officially not like they are not with their own subtle ways. 👀 in the first place this is not a love story.
