After ep 30 everything feels like a summary and the flashbacks and sequence of events get so confusing.
I really think they tried to get creative with the storylines and then realized that had to wrap everything up in a matter of 2-3 episodes. so these wrap up episodes became more of monologues leaving viewers doing their best to connect the dots. great drama, still love it. but they bit off a little more than they could chew
all of this. but here I was loving 39 bc I was starved in the previous 10 episodes. it was as if I finally got some action. this drama was masterpiece in the first 25ish episodes and it really said lol nvm for the next ten episodes. but you’re so right. it is a little ridiculous in 39 now that you spell it out. 🫠

the coin scraping is called gua sha and is a form of treatment in traditional Chinese medicine. it’s typically used for relieving pain and muscle tension and increasing blood circulation. you don’t actually need to use a coin specifically, it was probably just an easily accessible hard object for scraping in that setting.

somebody tell the second leads that they are just second leads. they need not go this hard pls T_T
of course! no actor would do that in their own volition. this is a professional setting. my comment was more sarcastic, actually commending them for such giving 100%
It was not bad but with 9.2 it is highly overrated. ZHL is talented based on the Story of Kunning Palace, so far…
I think the dissatisfaction may stem from this being a drama centered around the female lead. And the male lead I guess was always her supporting character. but it was annoying bc all the characters in the drama would talk about how powerful the marquis is but we didn’t see it. can you imagine if we got 5-10 episodes of the marquis we saw in the tent when he cut off the ear?
