In the 20s: What a terrible triangle - I feel so sorry for our three frineds... Reminds me a bit of King Arthur, Lancelot and Genevieve. Nobody is really right or wrong. I know Asule is the main lead but Yu Ran touchingly fell for Ji Ye from the get go not caring that he is a nobody or that Asule is the Crown Prince. Can't help but admire that a bit. She is too young and not wise enough to see that Asule is actually the better man but love is blind. And poor Ji Ye he loves his best friend's wife. Truly hope their friendship survives this mess.
I don't think we were meant to be attached to the characters, or at least not strongly. This is a different kind…
Thanks for that - I skipped to the character development part and would say its consistent with what I have come to realize. I was told I should do some "work" or reading on it before watching but I am deliberately trying to watch it without having any preconceived ideas. This specific aspect of the show strikes me as different. Not decided yet whether its good or bad different.
I suddenly realized: I really hate Gao Le. He is evil incarnate. This drama just won't end well for me unless someone really kills him dead. No reincarnation. Just dead dead.
True but from the previews, the writers are again writing them to be apart just to frustrate the hell out of us.…
They were tricked is my guess. They really thought they would get some good writing after all the writers have a BLANK CANVASS with this one. No legacy book or plot. They could have done anything and so many much much more interesting things. Failing all that they could have given us mcuh more time with the two main leads. Like I want them to team up really destroy JX or teach GOL a lesson together. Not go off and do things on their own. Sorry to vent but just so annoyed at them.
You can watch it on Youtube, it is being uploaded by CROTON there but the subs are up only till 12th episode (and…
Don't fret about it. Even if you understand the language your patience will be tested. And some very nice people have already summarized the key highlights along the way. Trust me you are not missing much of the other stuff, lots of filler rubbish. Maybe it is so slow because even the subbers are so bored by the fillers they can't be bothered to do it quickly.
Finally caught up on recent episodes and I have to say, although there is much to critique about the mediocre…
True but from the previews, the writers are again writing them to be apart just to frustrate the hell out of us. Sigh! This is a doomed relationship bc the script writers really suck. I already know out of the next 6, if you stitch it all together you get maybe one good episode of quality bonding time between the leads and have to suffer the rest of the time mired in the Mountuain Spirit Tribe's boring politics and power struggle.
New Chinese drama - English dictionary: Yuan Tong = Bitch from hell. Cunning and despicable. Evil beyond redemption. Fated destiny to be reincarnated as a lower life form (take your pick within anything in the insect realm).
The costumes for this series are not that great for both Ni Ni and Chang Chen. I feel like they dress the other…
I agree that most of the colors on JC costumes are not flattering at all although I like the cut and style. The yellows and golden browns make him look very sallow. White so far has been the best on him but he is a guy there are so many colors to work with I don't know what is wrong with the designer. He is supposed to be some famous award winning designer as well.
Wow! Up until 23, I struggled with why I even care that much about any of the main characters in this show (as epic as the other aspects of it are). This was the turning episode for me. Liking it a lot more now.
41-42 mostly uneventful and filler infested. Si Ming was really VERY naughty he is an evil gremlin that dude and is about to wreak havoc on YF and QY. QY has quietly and stealthily stolen my heart in this show. She is perpetually mourning her lost love and always looks so heartbreakingly stoic and despite his best efforts YF can barely get her to crack a smile. To her he is just a shallow, indolent high immortal with little ambition or purpose. She mourns her lost love who wisely tells her in another incarnation that remembering the past would just ruin the present for him. And then along comes Si Ming now appearing to set in motion a chain of events that leads to a resolution. I couldn’t guess what happens but I am intrigued. A bit frustrated at JC LX slow progress but this is an interesting sub plot that looks like its going to play out soon...
International c-drama fans really need to stop talking down Chang Chen. Just because he hasn't appeared in any…
No need to get upset... lot of haters and angry peeps out there. Life is just too short. Just ignore. After all, most of us just stop watching when we hate one of the leads that much so its like they enjoy signing up for self torture... Ignore them. When I see something really silly, I just ignore it. Silence is truly the loudest response in the world.
I don't know if I should be happy or sad that the extra episodes that end the show early is due to China's August…
That's so silly of them - they should just release all the most addictive purely entertaining ancient dramas out there into the anniversary. Its much better than having everyone so bored silly with propaganda that they start scouring the internet for "HK protests live"
