Ah, ty for your kind words. Been too too busy this year I can barely keep up with even one drama a time! Its too bad they used Zhao Na for this even though she is still an upgrade from that erotic web novelist...😅

British dark comedy The End of the F**king World. Should be on Netflix.

Thanks for the review! I caught the start and some bits of the action scenes while my dad was watching it but didn't sit through the whole thing.

TLDR - can't believe anyone wasted their time on this kind of garbage non-scandal scandal.

Wu Jing is so talented it is hard to remember even he had to start somewhere!

😊😊😊 Yes please dear ghost do haunt that apartment!

I think regardless of laws, one must always put their affairs in order. I always scoff when people say money is not important bc that is only true when you have so much of it that the incremental dollar doesn't change your life. Otherwise, it always matters and needs to be handled with forethought and intent.

Hmmm.... seems to be a bit of a plot hole. While HK doesn't allow same sex marriage, many spousal rights including inheritance are recognized if the couple got married legally overseas. Its quite a simple matter to pop over to Taiwan or Thailand to get it done. Great review as usual.

The platform decides when to open the rating. Usually they wait till its stable.

Oh I didn’t think that was sad - they already milked the Lishan tragedy arch for all it was worth - that was gratuitous like trying to squeeze water from a dry cloth.

Yes it is. I am not a fan of her replacement but she is still miles better than the complaining one, whose only claim to fame is from writing is erotic webnovels.

Yes that satisfying.

I named and shamed it:

Lol - yes high speed ran through the whole thing. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Yes the character journey was great. But plot arcs reveal the writer’s shortcomings. I also didn’t enjoy the prose and the dialogue lacked wit and was quite vernacular. I feel there are so many better writers out there idk they keep using this one. There are literally no memorable lines.

A lot depends on the censorship team - they could have had bad luck and gotten a very by the book one. The director overrules the scriptwriter any and every day of the week and this director has shot some iconic kiss scenes. Maybe she prefers to do no kiss scenes over dead fish kisses and if that is the case, I agree with her.

I think nowadays it’s hard to get budget to shoot proper war scenes and they are kind of boring if not paired with good art of war strategy so I don’t mind so much. The idea that the guy managed to gather an 80k army made no sense when the imperial army was only 30k. He didn’t have the money or arms for that. It just made no sense that they could have marched so many men virtually unseen and unhindered to the capital… I could go on but I won’t. They just wanted to bring MJL back to have a final showdown with Ye Li and we just have to suspend disbelief to some extent.

Go ask a bot what the rules are and the differences between web and tv broadcast. Not going to waste time debating what are widely available facts.

Actually at the end, they diluted his cause. He was only one of the crown prince’s many sons and an unfavored one from a concubine. While he still has higher claim to the throne than the emperor, he never would have had a chance had the ED not set the Eastern Palace fire and killed all his other brothers. TBH I don’t like how they slipped that in at the end. I would have preferred they left him as a tragic villain rather than one that was clearly over reaching from the start.

I am actually fine with how they went with the love scenes. The FL had serious mental issues. Too much focus on the physical side of their relationship could have come off the wrong way, especially early on. I did expect more in the last few episodes but I suspect some scenes may have been cut.
