Love triangle? Evil parents who try to ruin the leads relationship?
You're right! I forgot because I watched this drama a couple of months ago. I had to join the Thai drama telegram and search up this drama to get decent subs. https://t.me/THLakorn
This drama needed 10-15 less episodes. Most episodes were saturated with filler which was quite perplexing because the last arc was so messy as the writer tried his/her best to dump all the info on us which was hard to follow at times. I also hated the Pearl and Emperor arc (one or two episodes of them would have sufficed--they were not that interesting.)
To be honest the only interesting character (s) were the roles played by Wang Duo. He embodied his role as Fate/Nan Xu Yue. I understand why the drama was halted until he was able to come to film. I couldn't imagine anyone else playing that role.
Overall this drama was decent. Compared to the other Xianxia that's currently airing, this one is far better in my opinion.
What a fucked up schedule this is one of the reasons why C-Dramas are not as popular as K-Dramas... What a waste,…
We literally almost get two episodes a day and the drama usually finishes in a matter of weeks. We have to wait months for a Kdrama to finish and we only get two episodes a week and most of them have that weird murder plotline that doesn't even go with the story.
Dramas can only have 40 episodes and for them to not cut so much from the drama they had to put it in 2 parts. In hopes that it'll come out this year they changed the name of the second part because if they didn't we'd have to wait an entire year for it like Lost You Forever.
Since when any FL gender bender become males are convincing? I have watched many dramas with gender bender since…
Bai Lu in Arsenal Military Academy, Una You in The Heiress, Liu Mei Tong in Gone With The Rain, Ni Ni in The Rise of Phoenixes, Yu Chang from The Longest Day in Chang'an, He Lan Dou in A Journey to Love.
These are just from the top of my head. There are actresses that have put on convincing cross-dressing roles and gotten praise for it. The first step is actually taking off makeup which most actresses don't even do.
Nan Xu Yue is my favorite person in this drama. I usually can't stand when a 2ML is so obsessed with the FL but the writer(s) did a good job with him. His plans are not always pure but he always has the best intentions for the FL (his bottom line being never to hurt her or have anyone hurt her--is commendable even when she threatened his life).
The plot is all over the place. FL is not convincing as a male, the romance is eh so far (12 episodes in), and I haven't seen a sharp character yet. But it's short. so I don't feel like I'm completely wasting my time.
I've only watched two episodes but there was a small fight scene in episode 2. So small it lasted like a minute. If Wuxia is what you crave this is not the show I'd recommend.
