This drama is absolutely worth watching. I'm loving it, especially the small details put into the story and set…
The only thing I find distracting is the constant insertion of one second flashbacks of moments we already watched. We know the character has something or someone on his mind, but we don't need to know this every time.
The music supervisor (...I don't know his official job title) has done a very good job with the BGM placement. It doesn't feel like the editor did it, otherwise the editor might turn up the volume in the wrong places.
Wen Shuo found out first he's DJY but did not come forth to DZY bc of the instability of politics and afraid the…
I appreciate that you and others can provide the dimensions of the book that were lost in translation... meaning they disappeared between the book and the drama script.
Writing is very subjective, and I can see where the scriptwriter can go off tangent, to claim ownership of his or her written work. This is job security for them.
I had the feeling he might have known already based on the conversation he had with HY when he was serving him…
"There's a scene in the novel when HY asked him why he didn't stay with his DZY after knowing his identity and he said DZY had family around her but HY was alone." If that scene happens in the drama, I would break down down and cry.
Same, I understand frustrations and disappointments of book readers when a series don't line up with the book,…
Epic battle scenes are expensive to produce. In LOA, you see flashbacking flashes of the 80,000 battle. Nothing distinct! No principal characters having any dialog.
In episode 32, the Qin army of thousands, shows up at Qingnan's gate. It looks like CGI. I was calculating 100,000 initially, but the overhead shot looks blurred. They look like ants. 😁😁😁
I suspect that drama companies might opt for "adaptations" for legal reasons. If the source material (novel) ends…
On Legend of Anle, there are two set of writing credits. The original author's name appears in the opening credits, under the title treatment. The scriptwriting credits are the four writers who wrote the scripts.
Dramawiki shows the names of the scriptwriters. The novelist's name is not among the scriptwriters.

Sometimes, Chinese novels become involved in plagiarism claims, like Princess Agents.
The Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms novel was also in a plagiarism case. That is why the drama production was kept under the radar, and suddenly launched into TV distribution without any promotional work. That drama became a phenomenon worldwide and was even presented at the Cannes Television Festival.
LMX drank the wine. Is it poison? Is he dead after this episode?
I was referring to other dramas where they drink the tea of oblivion, or something. I don't really know LMX's final outcome. Who's going to investigate the fall of Qingnan? Han Ye?
Same here ....As a viewer and Raba's fan ... I will continue .... (Ive cooled down a bit.... and I feel yes....…
For me, the momentum starts to decline in the last week of the drama. The buildup takes so long, that once the drama achieves the apex, there is only one direction to go. (Like Han Ye following off the cliff, the second time...scene to come.) XD
I can understand the frustrations and disappointments of book readers with the series. I also get frustrated if…
I suspect that drama companies might opt for "adaptations" for legal reasons. If the source material (novel) ends up in plagiarism hell, the drama production could be impacted if it is identical to the source material. Modifying the contents might be a way to keep the intellectual property out of the legal woes. Something like Princess Agents, that was impacted by plagiarism, and we will never see the concluding Season 2.
That Mingxi leaving Anning hi and dry is pretty dispicable. Everyone rushes to save Anle, never mind strategy.…
Mingxi failed the Strategic Planning and Execution executive training course. I might have missed it, but did we ever find out what Mingxi had been planning over the ten years, that he was credited for? Was the Pleasure Palace, his dream business? I laugh when I see "Pleasure Palace", which sounds like a brothel.
If you like Dilraba and Gongjun then you should watch this ,otherwise I don't think you will like this drama
An 8 rating is still very good. To me, 7.7 or below, could indicate the quality.
It reminds me of the annual performance self-review. The employee has to rate himself/herself, 1 to 5 on various job "assets and performance. If you rate yourself 5, the supervisor kicks it back for correction. HR policy is that 5 is impossible, and 4 requires proof. In reality, 3 is average, 2 is mediocre and 1 is failure.
