Thanks for your share; I've learned long ago not to go against someone's significant other unless they are causing my friends' physical or emotional harm. When they get back together, I might lose a friend. lol

Tbh, distance does make the heart grows fonder. My grandmother had a saying, "If he wants to leave, no matter how you beg, he won't stay. If he wants to stay, no matter how you try to kick him out, he won't leave."

I like HBY's character because he is noble in so many ways and he DIDN"T SETTLE in love! Good for him.

Thanks for being awesome YOU!

Agree with your 'take' and 'differences' between novel and drama. Honestly, IMHO, I don't blame HBY for not involving CSS (& timing of the revenge) because CSS, no matter how mature and capable she was at her age, is still 15 plus. She and her family ultimately came to rescue him but I understand the omission on his part of his final act of revenge. CSS learned eventually the court/royal families strategic ways and how life is not as innocent as it appears; very similar to big corporations' politics. She had to equip and prep for what's to come.

The way the empress shared her own opinions and wanting their reconciliation was great because these two are literally 'kids' and cannot fathom what they had was so special! My beloved mom did the same right after my beloved father passed away; she reminded 'us' of appreciating the loves/romances we found.

Another candor: my beau and I also enjoyed some separation (due to long distance); we arrived at finally appreciating what we have found in one another. As much as I like the interactions/interplay between the leads throughout the drama, I liked how CSS took the 5 years to reflect, etc. 👍 Their sacrifices (i.e. HBY protecting her loved ones indirectly and her shutting herself off to do good for empress and herself) for one another meant more in the long run.

I hope to exchange thoughts with you in the future. Till then, please take care of yourself and ENJOY life daily. 🤩😁😀

Sry, I'll private message you.

Thanks so much! I got that part (LB and his calligraphy) but I'm wondering why LJT mentioned her father was embarrassed (ep 53) to have received the bronze mirror as dowry gifts for her to marry another. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I know that at times people scold or tell others to 'check' themselves in the mirror to 'see the truth' so I was wondering if that is the case for this. lol 🤣 Again, I appreciate YOU. Always learning new things. Good day.

Thanks soooo much! You're awesome like others on this page! I like three or four songs from this drama. I like the one from the ending credits but I've been looping this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZJuoLbJZXA. Furthermore, I like the background music during the massacre during ep 48. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Stay awesome and keep on enjoying. 🥰

Thanks again. (for the well wishes) lol 🤣

Two minute inquiries:

1) Who is the singer when 5th princess was dancing during Empress's bday banquet? She was also present during the luncheon for General Hut's memorial, therefore, she must be part of the Royal family.

2) What is the significance of bronze mirror (why was it embarrassing for LJT as a dowry gift from HBY other than that HBY does not want her)? I read that bronze mirrors were used to fend off bad luck in ancient times.

Thanks in advance to whomever can address these ???! 🙏🏼🪷

Thanks! I appreciate commenters like you, SpicyLime, CloudA, and others sharing resources like these. 👍🌟🪷 Good day.

❤️❤️❤️ yr last line! Hope you're having a fantastic week rewatching. Circle back if you see anything poignant that you might have missed earlier. I'm guilty of having it on (background) during work, etc, therefore, I missed quite a lot. 😅 Nice chatting yesterday. See you soon.

Goodbye My Princess was pretty good; One & Only was good as well. Back in the days, I thought Ashes of Love was really good but not compared to these newer productions! 🤣Nirvana in Fire is supposed to be great (GOAT).

Yes, I stuck to dramas as well due to the same reasonings as you; GMTA. These days, I'm skipping or dropping a lot of kdramas!

So cute/funny; I'm trying to find YT videos of WL for you but I think you probably have seen all of them! lol There is one interview on his ideal girl type from 2015 (2015!..). 🤦🏻‍♀️ 🤣🤣

Many thanks for your (along with other International viewers) appreciation for historical dramas! 👍🌟

Rewatching can be FUN; I missed some dialogues and things make more sense for plot developments/connections! Enjoy!

💯 🤣😅

Yes but its slower (can't skip big chunks @ a time)...we still have a VCR in one of our closets! lol 🤣

streaming makes it easier to fast forward the boring ones (or skip them altogether) lol Could you imagine those VCR days or when you can't forward? lol 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️

Yes on the bicycle; personally; he is very attractive but what I like about WL is his commitment to his work/craft and his love for his dog.

lol on not speaking Chinese and watching unsubbed videos. Love (affinity) needs no language....lol 🤣

I was just telling someone that I used to avoid c-dramas due to its length (too many eps) but now I'm hypocrite and wish LLTG has more eps. 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️ Can't wait for director's cut. I want to see Fei taking care of their kids.

Same 💯💕🪷🌟

@SpicyLime *bow down again* Thanks so much! Mere words cannot convey my gratitude towards you and your delineations/translations/excerpts from the novel. 🪷🙌🏼🌟

I love to feel when I read how the hero recaptures the heroines heart after he messed up. At times, my heart literally bleeds for them. I'm a guy at times; I like that 'chase' and knowing how he 'fought' for her love/trust/etc/.

Will do; thanks friend for the feel better! I hope you'll have a fantastic week.

There are plenty of intelligent people on this site, therefore, I like to read some of their contents as well. 😁

Life makes hypocrite of us; I used to avoid Chinese dramas due to the length/eps but now I wished LLTG would have more eps! lol 🤣👍🤦🏻‍♀️

💯

Forgot to add....read your review of this drama! 👍🪷🙌🏼. I've been feeling under the weather so not commenting much since I was heavily sedated/drowsy. lol 🤣 See you soon on another page. Take care.

Thanks friend! You have been so constant and amazingly supportive with your stats, etc in this comments page; we appreciate YOU. Stay awesome and see you around soon.
