🤣🤣Don’t know, ppl keep calling it “ a quality” drama but to me it’s ridiculous, like a parody . At least the plot. The cinematography and costumes are alright, and even the acting.
Also, I was thinking that maybe when SJY got jealous when he saw LY talking too intimately with that girl and left in a huff (and LY felt the need to explain) that maybe they tried to imply that he was jealous because of the woman not LY. We interpreted as him being annoyed because of LY but I think the producers meant it differently lol Fits better with the narrative (forced upon us) that they both liked her . Thank God I’m delulu enough to see it differently 🤣🤣
By the way, Fang Duo Bing is not only talkative but also pure and kind-hearted. I only call him talkative because…
He was annoying at first, immature, too quick to react and sometimes a blabber mouth lol but by the end of the book he turned out to be the most honest, selfless, caring and righteous character in the show. I absolutely adored him and his total dedication, love and loyalty to LX.
Strange tales of the Tang Dynasty is similar to this for me
Not even close lol The male lead is obnoxious and dumb (the guard) , the cases are not that interesting and they don’t have the same dynamics like this here.
OK so Fang Doubin found out he is li xianyi and the fact that he believes he killed his father is so ridiculous…
FD is the best character in the series. His devotion for LX, even when in his ..dumbness thought LX killed his father he still cared and tried to protect him. By the end of the series he’s the only honest, caring and righteous character of all and the person who loved LX the most. Di Fei Sheng had his plans too, and he was anything but honest ,only towards the end he relented a bit and started to care for him.
Not a happy ending, unless you’re delulu and you really really need it to be happy. It has the ending we all knew it’s gonna have, we had 40 episodes to get used to it so by the end it doesn’t really have the force to hurt that much.
I think you should try to see things from Qiao Wanmian's perspective, I have the opposite opinion to you, I like…
I agree, and not about the girl, I couldn’t care less about her storyline (it was forced in there in case God forbid we might think it’s men’s love 🙄) but I agree that he played the martyr “woe is me” too much , making all his friends suffer, and Fan Duobing the most. FD fought so hard for him to live, he struggled so hard, cried and pleaded... My heart broke for him, for how much he cared about LX. And not only him, a lot of ppl cared for him yet he got stuck in a continuous pity-party and self blame..It was exhausting.
hey....i hope there is no romance in this...cuz i purely want it to be a bromance between the male leads?
I do have a few good ones to recommend . On Netflix we have an absolutely fab historical/high fantasy Chinese one (for me it was almost a BL) : The Yin-Yang Master:Dream of eternity. On Viki we have Decline (historical) An ongoing Chinese drama cop/fire inspector (ep 28/38): Unnatural fire. Bloodhounds is an excellent Korean one. If I remember more I’ll let you know. ❤️

So funny.. 🤣 I searched on Google pure bromances and took me to a MDL list and to this series respectively. Then I scrolled through the messages and came upon this message with the promise of a list and what do you know …it took me to the same list I was at the beginning 🤣🤣🤣 Apparently it was your list all along. . I thank you for it by the way. Excellent list.
Under the skin was brilliant even without the bromance part to be honest.
He Xin’s dad gives me the creeps. Poor guy, he’s gonna have his heart broken when he finds out his father is a monster. Can I ask in which chapter will he realize he is that child. I swear I can’t with the tension. I went to bed at 4 am!!! 🙈🤣❤️
