Yes Deng Kai character kill his younger brother, they are not exactly blood related. It’s all along an act to be like a kind brother, there is a twist in Deng Kai’s character here.
They didn't focus on all the things that made S1 so good.
Exactly! They spent too much time on flash backs and re-establishing the characters relationships, where the story telling fall short😓. Totally agreed with your promotion on Young Blood 2.
Having watched 10 episodes and enjoying the familiar feels of the 80s (hairstyles! Earrings! That fringe! I can…
👍🏻well written write up. I enjoying reading your perspectives. So true that FL is really a strong and resilience woman, who is also altruistic to want to help her friends and family seek a better life. I can’t imagine re-living that era and hold on to the wisdom to make such wise decisions like Xia XiaoLan.🤩
Agreed. The second slap feels unnecessary, perhaps only to give a ‘dramatic effect’.😓
Thanks for sharing. I can understand force kiss, gets a slap. But recent ep., he explained and gently kiss her forehead which she didn’t reject then she slaps…that didn’t make sense😓. And like you, I never agreed with violent behaviour whether from men or women. As you said, she could just push him away, why that slap? So what I understand is screen play tried to keep the essence from the novel but lost the appropriate moment. 🤦🏻♀️
Ma dude created her new blade himself completely and used his own blood as a seal; only the best for his wife:…
Xie Zhen is so dramatic as a character😂. There are many ways to test a sword without needing to self harm. Wonder if it’s a deliberate intention to get more sympathy vote from his wifey😜.
Thank you for your response. Is this version of Frankenstein very scary, or is it more on the mild side?
It’s not scary, it follows closely to the original classic theme, fantastic cinematic feel with great characterization. This director also tells an impactful story that is more character driven and not plot driven. Here is the trailer to share: https://youtu.be/x--N03NO130?si=uLHWeURQfcbPru3R
Well observed! I like your review, it’s spot on for this drama hence my disappointment too. It just feels like both k drama and c drama industry are heading towards commercialism and formulated way of production, which is rather sad. Recently I watched ‘Frankenstein’ by Gullimore Del Toro, with beautiful cinematic feel and fantastic character’s growth, so well filmed, the attention to details and yet not neglecting the story arc. And I am glad that there are still such great production around making good movies.
