What's wrong with the English subtitles on MangoTV? I haven't started this yet, but I just randomly checked some…
It depends on the where you watch it. If you on their app-i heard you can get translation, but most of the time is machine translated. If watch on the site, I haven’t seen English sub option. Most people are watching it on KissKH or similar site and if there no sub provided then it machine translate.
I'm already mentally preparing myself for it. 🥲 I just can't be positive. 😭 Although I do have a slither…
Stupid me… the first four character was a word play on their name……the title could be translated to “Jiang Hu, Ye Yu — Ultimately Like a Dream” ಥ_ಥ so I'm moving BE to 95%….but there is still hope.😅
I don't remember their story clearly, as far as I remember their story wasn't told completely in tht drama and…
They don’t show what happened to them, but you can piece together the story through all of YBY’s dialogue. Rong created the Ghost Village and then went into seclusion in the snowy mountains with YBY to form the Immortal Clan. They never say whether he got married or not, but the clan consisted only of the three of them, and they raised the son on their own until he ran away during his teenage years. They don’t tell you whether Rong loved YBY, because YBY never confessed his feelings to Rong. For dual cultivation to fully work, the two had to have absolute trust in each other, but YBY didn’t tell Rong his feelings. From the ending credit image, I think these two are following the same route.
Ok..at ep 10, and I still feel WOH vibes and little bit could be take from straight from WOH. However, I feel like they are giving you story of Ye Bai Yi and Rong Changqing, instead of A-Xa and WKY. So I thinks it won’t end well. 😅 be prepared….
From the first episode, it looks and feel like it copying from Word of Honor. Don’t mind yet, let see how they copy and/change from it. 🤭they keep the almost the same meeting and color coded. Change from a “son” to a “daughter” and give all the signature weapons of the WOH to the Ye Yu. And from the ending credit imaging…it like it bordline BL and bromance.
Hi!I am currently on episode 4. I am confused about the whole snake situation. Did the chefs that ChiCheng hired…
The father pay the “boy toy” to drug CC’s men and took the snake as hostage for him to get his “life in order”, cause he know the snake is the most important thing to CC (at that time). That why CC was set to get Yue Yue as a girlfriend. He hidden them in the cafeteria and the chiefs are they’re guards. Guo figure it out, but he doesn’t give it away, right away cause they like to like games with each other. -side note, CC and WSW figured it out cause the chiefs start breeding them and try selling them off.
Firstly, the 1st episode really shocked me, especially that gang rape scene. I still think it was really unnecessary…
Guest this why the author told the drama fan to not read the novel. 😅 I haven’t read it yet…but I agree about the first episode, it shock me and I was so if about his character for first couples of episodes…it was good thing the show focus on WSW in the beginning and his POV.
I'm sorry for the series, but I have to admit: I agree with you. I watched the first 2 episodes, then stopped.…
What you said just prove one of my point, the production seems to be made in short-form drama way, unknownly, like for streaming on TikTok or Douyin. I won’t be surprised if the director have only done short-form drama.
Well I didn't see any chemistry between the main couple of revenged love , wonder will I be attacked if I go there…
Who to said, this is just my opinion about the leads’ chemistry and it is a small part as to why I have negative view of the drama. If you didn't see any in RL, then it’s your. If you feel strongly about your criticism of RL then why not express it? Just expect some push back and keep things civil . This what public comment broad is all about. I mentioned RL because the both drama were released around the same time and it is natural as viewer you would compared.
Ok…this might be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think this drama was that great. I feel like its popularity mainly comes from being the first fully adapted omegaverse story turned into a live drama.
When the first episodes were released, I watched them in full, but I couldn’t get very invested. I didn’t dislike it—just felt mildly interested. After a while, I found myself watching in fast-forward mode. At the time, I was also watching Revenged Love, and I thought maybe I was too invested in that show to enjoy this one. But now I can see why.
This production—whether the director, script, or editing team—seemed to be aiming more for a short-form drama than a long-form one. The editing left noticeable plot holes that, in better hands, might not have existed. The heavy skin smoothing and bright color filters made it look more like a one-minute short drama, which cheapened the setting and sometimes made the actors’ faces look unnatural. The BGM also felt random, like generic elevator music, instead of being thoughtfully chosen to support the mood.
As for the script, I even discussed this with friends: it felt flat. The plot kept moving forward, but without real storytelling depth. Later episodes could easily have been condensed into ten minutes each. The acting also felt stiff and awkward, but I think that might have been the director’s fault more than the actors’. It seemed like the director didn’t know how to bring out the actors’ abilities.
There was little to no chemistry between the leads, especially compared to Revenged Love, where you could clearly see the director’s touch even in the actors’ body language. For example, in one of the later episodes when Shen Wen Lang was missing GT, instead of letting us see through the actor’s performance that he missed him because he loved him, the production just inserted a random voice-over narration spelling out his feelings.
If this drama had a stronger director or production team, even with this kind of trope-heavy script, it could have been much better.
I’m still processing my feelings about this season. - So this is going to be long, I am processing as I write:
1. The ending! The last scene featured the happiest yet softest smile ever. It felt like a soulmate finally meeting their other half again. I had hoped for the ending to be like this, but I also knew from the comic that Su Ho's character only appears in flashbacks. So I was withholding my expectation about Hyun Wook doing any new scene.
2. The intensity of the bromance among the four leads wasn’t as strong as in Season 1; it felt more muted. As a CP shipper, I was a little disappointed, but not as the same time. I know that in the comic, Hyeon Tak’s character outright says he likes Si Eun. I was expecting some hints of romantic chemistry between the two or switch it that with between the other three leads (…I think they sort of set it up when Hyeon Tak and Si Eun meet…but went no way, Hyeon Tak and Jun Tae became the sidekick pairing ).
As said before, intensity with the four leads is lower; it feels like a genuine brotherly/best friendship rather than the obsessive relationships seen in Season 1. As shipper, I’m glad my original pairing didn’t sink! 🤣 So I was a little happy about how there is no hint or feeling that these guys are other than friends. They are close friends and nothing else.
The writing for Si Eun’s character was excellent. While he opens up to the new leads and connects with them, you only see his real emotions when he’s with Su Ho and Beom Seok. This is largely thanks to Ji Hoon’s acting. The two individual scenes with Hyun Wook and Hong Kyung bring back the chemistry and raw emotions of s1.
3. It seems like this season focuses more on the past relationships that haunt the characters. -Beak Jin- you’ve got to feel for the guy. If this were a GL or BL storyline, he would be the character who does evil but has a heart. He will do anything to keep his love by his side, but keeps driving them away. The “evil” emperor, who wants his maid to be empress but can’t because he is still powerless and up losing her. His obsession with keeping Hu Min by his side was fun to watch. I guess they were trying to portray him as a negative version of Ji Hoon if he decided to become like Beom Seok.
4. The writing in characters, fighting abitily and plots, sometimes lose me, as I question the logic. What secret organization will brother by high school kids? The character’s fighting level increases and decreases when the plot needs it to be.
Blueming is the direct adaption of the manhwa "Who Can Define Popularity?" if you want to see that ^^ This is…
That’s make sense! I opened the first chapter of the webtoon, and I was like isn’t this the storyline of the other BL drama. So they are in a share universe…so were these characters in blueming too or just the comic?
I just finished episode 6, and I have to say, is it just me, or is the writing for Zhu Ge Qing's character off? He’s not the carefree idol we saw in the first season; instead, he seems to have adopted a “second master mentality” with an inferiority complex compared to Wang Ye.
In my mind, I saw them as part of the secondary or third couple of the series in Season 1 (to me there were three couples in series). But then, out of nowhere, Zhu Ge Qing falls for Fu Ring at first sight?! The character we saw in Season 1 had girls and guys mooning over him all the time (he's an idol, after all!), yet he only seems interested in Weng Ye because he defeated him.
I found it strange that he chose a girl he had only known for a couple of days as his guard (an important role in any Xianxia universe) when he faced his heart demon, instead of Weng Ye, who in S1 he dropped everything to help out. It just feels like the relationship with Fu Ring is out of place and forced in there to have some romance (because Baobao and Chu Lan seem to be just sitting around and/or letting everyone just tell them what is going on). They do keep hinting that his relationship with Weng Ye is important because he and Weng Ye in every scene they are in has to remind the audience about the other character ( they are motive of why they are there— basically he’s a hostage that is keeping Weng Ye in the village. ) Overall, the writing seems inconsistent with Zhu Ge Qing's characteristics from S1, maybe because they change the actor and the writer want to change his character around…maybe the audience was shipping them too much and they want to dip it in the butt.
I translated as:”Jianghu’s night rain — in the end, all was but a dream” - because Jaing Hu is the character name and also word for martial world.🥲
Up to you if you mind the mess up sound or machine translation ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ
