I bet you would love The Longest Day in Chang'an as well, though you will probably need to skip the flashback episodes, and the "underground brothel" scenes were unnecessarily long and drawn out. But if you get past the first episode, and figure out who is who, then it's one heck of a ride!

If you haven't already seen them:

1. A Dream of Splendor

2. A Girl Like Me

3. One The Woman

4. Decreed By Fate

5. The Legends (this one could have been 10 episodes shorter, but still, decent story and FL.

All have good female leads that aren't push-overs, perpetual victims, or Mary Sues.

The only drama she was good in was "Romance of Tiger and Rose". I was ready to drop it after the first episode because of her cutesy comedy persona, but it improved from the second episode onwards, and now I think it's a great drama. You should give it a try past the first episode.

Yes, that's her! I can't stand her, and she has one of the top agents in China, so she will keep getting cast forever and making every drama she is in unwatchable. It really drives me nuts.

Right?? She isn't "ugly", but she..... isn't nice to look at in any way or at any time, and it doesn't improve with time. Also, she isn't even a good actress, so both of those together makes her kind of ruin everything she is in. I have the same problem with Ju Jingyi, although she isn't "unattractive", but her presence on screen suggests a spoiled, emotionless brat. She absolutely can't act her way out of a paper bag, and ruins every drama she is in as well.

Wengu sacrifices literally everything so he can just be near you, he is smoking hot and a faithful friend, but you feel no love towards him after a thousand years? Really?! You suck! 😆🤣😂 Oh, umm... yeah, you can love whomever you want, but you still suck! 😆

Thank you!!!

I got terribly bored. Can someome please spoil something for me? Other than her husband, did she actually kill anyone else? The crazy rich lady that was blackmailing her mentioned someone else.

I understand what you mean about self-pity. Her self-pity is annoying, but to have the misfortune to be victimized at every opportunity, in every possible way is the hallmark of a female protagonist. It's pretty funny that she said she doesn't believe in luck, as she just has bad luck after bad luck happen to her. I think the one time she yelled at her worker for inconveniencing her, I think we can forgive her for that. After all, she was set up as a perpetual victim, and nothing has gone the way she wanted it to. I think we can forgive her snapping at someone just once.

Morals have gone out the window. All wealthy people are bad by default, even if they don't harm anyone, and only the poor can be good people, but if they aren't they are still the protagonists, as long as they only harm the rich. The rich are disposable in socialist intersectionality, unless a character is rich but was poor in the past, or aligns themselves with the poor somehow.

Zhao Lu Si has two acting modes, that I can tell.

1. Saccharinely cutesy Mary Sue comedy persona (you can tell she is a naturally cutesy, goofy person).

2. Stoic with notes of comedy about her, but she can't be serious and an interesting, multi-faceted character at the same time.

I found the mom antagonist to at least be an interesting person, unlike her daughter. Would have prefered a story about the mom than the daughter.

A bit of "Story of Minglan" feel to this one, but I'm already bored.

Ep 24 made me LOL when pilot Murong was saying how he gets harassed all the time because he is so good looking. 😆 Well, he is still honest, I guess. 🤷‍♀️ Tough being so good looking. Also, it was realistic that such a good looking man wouldn't be immediately struck by the looks of a woman who looks like hundreds of other women. I mean, he'd have to have some draw to get him to speak to some random stranger.

Can someone please spoil the special episode for me? I don't need to know what happens to all the characters. All I want to know is if the ML and FL end up together. PLEASE!!

Thank you. I skipped the torture scenes, because I couldn't take them, emotionally.

You're right. They only dislike the actor because he isn't a pretty boy actor, like they are used to. You can still tell he was very handsome when he waa younger, not that he isn't handsome now, but he looks his age.

Thank you. It was implied in the first episode that she was, and I was very disturbed by it. But since you say they cleared up that this wasn't the case, I will give it another shot.

Can someone verify whether or not she was raped in the first or second episode? Because they implied that she might have been, and just implying a child was raped is absolutely revolting. I couldn't follow the story after that. That didn't happen, right? Please spoil it for me, because I am too grossed out to go on with the story after that. I already skip over torture scenes, so don't know exactly what happened, but I just can't watch violence against women or girls.

He didn't deny, I guess because of advice his lawyers gave him. However, statements made were traced back to two different internet sources, both if which were random people who had never met him. This is 100% cancel culture. Do you think nobody in the K drama world has ever bullied another kid IN HIGH SCHOOL! Cancel culture is all about digging up random dirt on whatever target, and then bullying him/her till their careers are ruined as adults, whether they actually did something as a kid or not. And, what happened to innocent till proven guilty? Cancel culture doesn't care about evidence, it just cares about keeping up appearances. Ji Soo is now an adult, and no illegal charge has been put against him. There was absolutely no reason to accept silence as admittance of guilt. That is madness. A perfectly good actor was taken off a k drama he would have done an excellent job in for absolutely no reason other than public hysteria, caused by bad characters who had a power trip and wanted to harm some random actor's career.
