Hmm.. Can someone explain to me why K-Drama have sometime a warning at the beginning that it's a work of fiction…
It's for legal reasons so no one can sue for defamation. If a storyline is based off of the writers real life in any way or if they used names of people they know for character names etc. With the historical shows, the families are still alive today & will(have been know to) sue writers for their artistic license with historic events.
This snake demon arc is the only arc that is separate from the main plot? Its meant to be a filler arc? It has…
It took a while for the nine lives to come back into play even though we saw him early on. Right now, it's a way to bring her fiancé into the fold. I think it does connect in a few ways just not AS directly as the previous demons. It's also to hammer home that Xuan Ye uses his brain before offing a demon....looking at you Sima Ling Ying, looking at YOU.
I think there are lessons to be learned from them, but because it's a slower build and they have less direct interaction it's a bit more boring than the other stories. There have been lots of stories of greed and power....and the greed for power. The only demon that we've met IMO prior to this storyline that didn't deserve their end was my man Nine Lives. He was a real one and he was a good boy. Everyone else somehow became corrupted and needed to be either put down or freed from their "master".
I cant tell yet if his brother(im assuming that's who the other panther is) wants to hurt Xuan Ye or if he is sincerely looking for him to come back. I know that he stabbed him with a spear, but I think he was aiming at the intruder to their land aka BanXia. Mainly his violence matches the other character's when they come across a demon. & he honestly only attacked when threatened so im still confused about if he's hunting to find & bring back into the fold or hunting to kill so his place in the royal family is set.
So, four "stories" or arcs so far. Owl demon, Mirror/Pear demon, Nine-lives/Puppet demon, Bug/Ink/Painting(?) demon(don't know what were calling the latest 2 demons). Not sure if were are going to jump right into Panther Prices arc just yet or if will have one more before the home stretch.
It sounds like I'm in the minority here, but I actually prefer that this show focuses on its fantasy/adventure…
And the thing is, it's not even too light on romance really. It's always there in the background but never overtakes the main focus of an episode. It's like the score of a movie, always present increasing in volume when needed.
What's wrong with Ban Xia's parents? I can't stand them! 😡 Why can't they let her choose who she wants to marry?…
Lets say, hypothetically, that your daughter was part demon, and one day she comes to you saying she wants to marry a demon hunter? Would you just let her ride off into the sunset with someone who might end up killing her once he finds out who her mother is? I think not. My assumption is that BanXia's mother is a demon of some kind. If her mother isn't a demon, than they probably don't want their daughter to be in constant danger being the wife of a man who hunts demons....who had to kill his whole family because they were poisoned by demons....we they know the price for getting entangled with demons.
I'm just saying her parents are scared for her one way or another.
I don't know what's going on with the iQiYi website. I can easily watch the previews but for some reason the episodes wont play anymore. I think it must have something to do with my VIP protections or something. I can watch the episodes on my Roku app but not on my laptop....And for some reason my history only gets logged if I'm using the website....yall make it make sense.
I didn't watch the trailer or the opening/ending credits because I didn't want to be spoiled with visuals. oh well gave it my best guess with the info I had 🤷♀️
I have a feeling that ML's bio dad has entered the chat(Uncle Master guy). I guess ML is half human half fox demon. It would make sense with the woman(fox demon) disappearing roughly 20 years ago. The ML ending up in the care of a demon hunter...the connection to his fellow dispel(or whatever they called it,) is another connection. ML can't remember anything before the age of 12. I wonder if the tattoo band is not only blocking his demon side, but also cloaking his memories as well. Manying, whom I believe is the ML, had pointy ears but no real reference for what type of demon he was.
TFF is my most favorite novel among all the countless of others I had read before, I love Sangyan and Wen Yifan's…
They did a poor adaption with the make-up though. That was a conversation had after not seeing each other for 48 hours, not a conversation one has after not seeing or speaking for a solid 6 months.
Explaining HK ( in the spoiler section) Arc if anyone cares also the reason why I do think the director didn't…
They didn't adapt it well at all. They made a 48 hour(in constant communication) separation into a 6 month no contact ghosting and running away. She would have never called him had their friends not tracked her down like they worked for the FBI. The director then used the novel dialog verbatim for the make up even though it went from 48 hours to 6 months. The whole point of that misunderstanding in the novel was so that Wen Yi Fan went to HIM. She sought HIM out to communicate and explain. It was supposed to be the first steps into her really trusting him fully with everything and trusting that he would catch her.
The whole reason they ran into each other at the airport in the novel was because he was worried when she stopped responding to his texts for like 4 hours(on the plane)& could possibly be in danger and he was going to fly back to check on her. They had a 6 month separation and showed no personal progress other than her teaching children ballet....in pointe shoes(which is dumb as all hell I can't even begin to express how stupid it is to teach 6 year olds in pointe shoes after not having danced in 7 years with a previous ankle fracture.) The entire HK plot was not helpful nor did it do anything to further the characters relationship...other than what was used from the original source material. It made both characters seem less intelligent than they are.
