Well said, i love your reviews on BaiLu dramas ❤☺️
Thank you! Since I restarted watching Cdamas last year (after a couple of years of disciplined stop), I decided to write something after I finish it as I realised I've forgotten most of the things I've watched in the past, which is a shame and unproductive time spending :D
What a great storytelling... Too bad it's not available on the large channels like Viki and YouTube; this is a story worth telling and be passed on.
This story sheds light upon the changing eras, which reminds me of where we are now, with AI transforming the way we live and work, just like then, when economic developments impacted people and the way they lived and worked, and the uneven development in smaller cities, and the differences this had between societies. Interesting, how this story sheds light into the transport sector, and the development of various segments of it; and how hard poor people work to survive...
The story about this nice "large family" and friendships is really moving, as it's beyond this time to live this closely together; the beautiful father-son moments and the good teacher, which is really rare these days to have good teachers, and what a difference such a good teacher can make in someone's life. In all the fights within the different families you can hear where there is love and where there is only the self... This is also visible in a company's leadership: when there is humanity and where there is selfish greed. All the children grew up into decent persons, and the three of them are all good leaders. It makes clear that it doesn't matter what we do, it's the way we do it and how we treat the people that makes a real difference.
I had expected that Siyi will come back when the two started dating and WH would have to choose, but the story became so real... Spoiler alert - proceed at your own discretion.
Like his father, WH is a decent person, but to me, he grew up a very rational person, brainy, and therefore a bit cold at times, and FH is like his heart, keeping him humane and warm. His love for her really impressed me. It’s nice how comfortable they are around each other, and how real they love each other. I'm also impressed with Xingchi's love, whose feelings make him a more responsible and futureoriented man. Of course, WH and the rest were good friends in helping him with his development, and I'm so happy that he found his passion. It's so beautiful when someone does that, like the rest, such as Haikuo and Chengrui. Chengrui's feelings were also serious, he actually waited. Just like Haikuo's father, who waited all this time. It's also very moving how this story sheds light upon the various brain diseases, and the impact it has.
This story makes me want to know BL better as a person behind all her roles.
Quite amazing for this people's stream to become a World Heritage; whereas, the other sights are all former habitats of the Imperial Family. This is a people's story. The human decency puts a smile on me. This is a story that should be exported.
I had to get used to the music playing when the ML walks in, reminds me of the old idol series. I also had to get used to the way he speaks, it's like when I advise my little brother to pronounciate. As always, Bailu chooses her roles well, and I got into the story. Really liked how they were cooking together after a day of work, where they support each other no matter what. I also liked the side romance stories, which were quite good as well. I also liked seeing the Grandfather, who reminds me of my own late Grandfather. Didn't take notes whilst watching this time, so forgot about the rest.
What a nice surprise to discover that they have aired the second part at a time I was longing for a new Cdrama!
I like how she is empowering other women, no matter who they are. I like how their love for each other blossomed. Their love is so moving. The way she talks to him in later episodes shows how much she's grown as an actress and as a woman.
The actor of Prince Ning is such a great actor, he also did a great job in a very different role in Go Ahead with Song Wei long. It's just that his final choices in the script were a bit illogical... for the purpose of the script.
Nice to have seen a familiar face in the actor that played her cousin.
Was never impressed with her, but just watched Mulan and that's the best version I've ever seen. Almost cried so many times, and eventually tears rolling at the end. So moved!
What a starcast! And what a difference in CGI from only a few years ago (well, over 10 years in this case), before AI et al. Finally understood what my mom said when I was little that Sun Wu Kong destroyed the Heavenly Palace. It's not because of his mischief, but because he was manipulated, and it was so sad that he lost all his loved ones. How wronged he was by the Heavenly Guard, which reminds us to guard evil everywhere. But evil is not creative, which is why Good will always win.
Interesting from the beginning, and she is trying her acting skills from a different angle. I'm glad they changed the initial plot, which was very bad writing, and how they incorporated all the shooting skills with music and lighting to enhance dramatic effect. I very much liked the characters development. It is a comedy.
"From Chaos, the Two Forms were born; regret is the root of love. The ordeal of love is over. From now on, in heaven and on earth, never to be separated again."
Loved the ending, had to grow into this from the beginning, where they put too much makeup on her face, and the background music and some of the voice dubbing needed to grow into. Like how they immediately started with love, and the little family she had in her palace, before the plot twist, after which the story became even better. Spoiler alert - proceed at your own discretion.
Really enjoyed their life together, spending time in tranquility and love, but they did not understood each other's perspective, since they were yin and yang, which caused the rest of the drama.
That beautiful lesson she taught the little boy, who became like her son, and that moment she saw the writing on his painting was so moving.
Interesting how he also got attached to a little boy. Initially wondered how he didn’t know what she went through; if he truly loved her he would have kept an eye on her and kept her safe, but he fled to maintain his innocence - like Adam betrayed Eva. Of course, later we understood why that wasn’t possible, so couldn't blame him.
Can’t believe it’s all part of her plot, that she would knowingly hurt him while he unknowingly hurt her. The daughter was also a bit cruel with her father, who was already sad, and tried to safe her. But that was also the beautiful lesson, to undo the unnecessary hurt.
Bailu has developed a lot as an actress, played all kinds of roles from the beginning of her career, and I see her developing here as well.
That scene when we all understood why she could hate him so, was tearing. How after all her suffering, it’s still not over. The evil in human… We wouldn’t know how 10 years of one’s suffering can be worse than 100 years until we see it with our own eyes, like he did, and it got even worse, so we understand that he is now hating himself as well. Sight...
I'm glad they were smart enough to figure out the evil behind it all, but there were some plot holes with the evil one knowing and plotting (how could he witness her importance to him, whilst sabotaging her life at the same time?) The actor who played the evil one is a great actor, did a great job here. Complex character.
The music became very moving as well. So sad... which is why I was so grateful when she could safe his family, and how she told her former self what she needed to know so she could tell him the good news, which would prevent all the future tragedies - as he would have never made that decision by himself if he knew. I hope they have a happy life in the alternate universe.
It's beautiful how she was the one to find him and to melt him, and how they felt each other's presence from the beginning. How they would balance each other and even giving each other life. That's the perfect kind of love. "From now on, in heaven and on earth, never to be separated again."
If you hear her pray, you hear a spoilt and superficial little girl. It’s like they’re teaching girls how to be even more materialistic and superficial than they are now... It's weird that she calls herself by name, makes her seem even more spoilt, and kind of judge him for liking her.
It is attractive when a man is using his power to protect his woman, it is a shame how his love for her is affecting his work at some point. That's not a great example to show for boys growing up these days.
It’s a shame they put so much make up on him, making him look different as he's naturally quite handsome. They should stop putting so much make up on actors and changing the way they look. The boys and girls growing up these days should appreciate their natural beauties.
In a way, it's good that this drama was so difficult to watch (spoilt and superficial girl), if it wasn't for SWL would probably not have finished it, so I read a lot of books, and did quite some trainings next to work.
Much more prefer the second couple.
Why some people are so greedy, already coming from a good family and aren't satisfied with what they had...
The last couple of episodes were very strange, don't know why her second suitor had to end that way, and that she had a third suitor, and why the third couple had to leave.
Honestly, would have never watched anything like this if it wasn’t for SWL but what a good start! Her dad is such a nice person, what a beautiful family they chose. How moving when Ziqiu chose his own father. How Lingxiao chose Jianjian... Sometimes the fathers behave like a married couple. The brothers behave just like their fathers later: one’s cooking, another paying.
Tickets were quite expensive back then, which makes moving abroad a bigger deal, and therefore, seeing each other harder.
The irresponsible parents you feel responsible for, and suddenly growing up… Then again, some of those selfish parents want their children back for whatever reason. It's complex.
The people who do not come back, and the people who come back.
Can’t believe she will put her entire personal/family story online.
They’re closer than real families, happy despite. These poor broken children... The boy playing Ziqiu is a great actor. Happy for him to got his mom back.
Suddenly this annoying mother became vulnerable because her husband is leaving her...
And they adopted this cute little dog <3
The comparison with Anna Karenina is a bit mistaken considering, for those who know the ending.
Sunli must have practiced a lot with this role, and I’m sure she has gone beyond her comfort zone for this role. It’s a shame she’s no longer doing historic dramas as she thinks nothing will compare to Zhenhuan, though I think Miyue was even better as a feminist, and I’m sure she can still get great roles for us.
Noticed that the “modern” series I’ve watched are all about third party divorces, seems like there isn’t anything interesting anymore.
This third woman was really manipulative, and the husband really undeserving of Manli, the story turned into a meaningful direction with a lessons learnt.
This unprofessional colleague who uses private reasons to get her and his even more disgusting wife, whose also a terrible leader (unsurprisingly as she’s also a terrible person), not sure what happened with them, as I expected a lessons learnt there beyond here wearing a T-shirt, as they severely disrupted her career and financial situation twice.
At some point she had a conversation with her ex husband, and it showed how much she has grown. It happened slowly, so it was impressive to see her later.
How the young boy slowly fell in love with her without noticing, just getting used to each other as they lived and worked happily together ("guorizi"). The way she interacted with him really wasn't romantic, it was the moment she showed fragility with her father, when he stepped up. They lived like a family, but not sure if he was an extra son or a little brother, though he did a lot for her son, he didn't seem like a father-figure/manly partner. Yes, later he got promoted and was in a situation to take care of her, but it also seemed like he was pressuring her (at work and with accepting him), while they had a very different relationship.
It was a shame that the YouTube version cut and pasted many scenes inbetween and to each other that the story wasn't fluid, and you were missing quite some important explanations, after which the story ended abruptly, so I noticed this wasn't the complete and original version, and ended up searching online to the original version, which also showed what a nice father and son she has. The scene were her father said he'll take care of here, while he's sick, and gave her money to buy a cake was really moving.
The way they showed the personal story behind each client also shows how personal a client-based job gets, which I hope many of us will take into our professions.
Almost skipped this because of disappointing trailer, but then, series later, I attempted to watch a few other series from my favourite actresses, and wasn't in the mood, when I started with this and continued.
Xukai is good as always, the girl speaks quite monotonously, which is a shame.
The first part ended in a crescendo, immediately followed by the second part in a rather unexpected way, where everything started all over again. There were so many gaps which were filled later, and closer to the end - in a way, you want to keep your viewers appetised, but in another, you want them to follow the story. Nevertheless, I was inspired to write the following throughout my experience, and binged as much as I could next to a demanding full time job. Spoiler alert - proceed at your own discretion ;)
Loved how Hongri/Kylin just took his master to his weapon; and how Baijue took her to him - the loyalty and love despite the situation were just impressive.
She’s a Goddess, despite her identity, because she has the greater love for humanity, and everything beyond herself, whereas this evil and disgusting empress, ungrateful and lowly, who speaks in such an annoying way, is just a contrast.
Her maid actually feels bad but follows all her evil orders from the beginning, which is also something to notice.
Somehow she has this amazing second son, was very moving at the end.
He and Fengran both have beautiful phoenix wings! Great CGI as well!
Such a stupid Heavenly King, easily manipulated, but at the end I was moved by his love.
Just don't understand why all these good people died for no reason... there are some script loopholes, such as why would she not let Qingmu keep her company but the Demon Lord could?
Why would the True Gods waste their energy fighting each other while the real evil is causing everything?
Baixue loved her so that he did all that for her, for 60.000 years, but he made the mistake of making decisions for her - assuming what would be the best for her.
Cried when Gujun recognised her as the Chief Goddess before he died for her, and when she recognised her son who cried so much, and I really really cried when Baijue died - it was quite an experience, which made me think about what if I will lose someone I love one day.
It’s quite an atmosphere killer when that moving scene of family reunion moved to that evil witch, who doesn’t even recognise her mistakes until the end.
When she woke up, they didn't have the reunion they deserved after so many years. It must have been so hard for him to pretend, and to maintain the plan... He must have missed her so much that he’ll pretend to be a dream just to see her, and she'll just think she accepted a dream to appreciate their time together. It kind of hurt to see them like that, and I kind of blame him for lying to her and to decide to die for her, and hurting them in between.
He did everything he could to bring her back, but she asked the Ancient God to bring him back... Perhaps the difference between a man and a woman, but maybe the Chief God believes in the Ancient God more?
I'm glad they did finally have the reunion they deserved. This one stayed with me for a bit longer. I will go back to watching one of the light dramas from my favourite actress. The OST is great while I'm writing this. Somehow my heart still aches for the many episodes inbetween.
The end is so moving and touching I almost cried. Bailu is good in chosing her roles, all her series are so good!
Just some youngsters joining this army school for various reasons, and then something happened that suddenly forced them to grow up , and they all grew up well.
SJS is really smooth; much smoother than his brother but they're both really nice persons. Feel bad for GYZ who was doing house chores for them while she’s dancing with someone else… it’s not the first time she’s on a date while he’s waiting for her, but I'm glad that she realised how much he did for her and her own feelings, and showed him her appreciation of him.
Good to see all the boys grow, including LWZ, that they gave him a love interest, just don’t understand what had to happen to him later. There are parts of the story that aren't very logical. Also don't understand why they had to leave when the people who formed a danger to them were gone.
Another story about how one shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. This kindhearted boy have been stamped with the Son of the Demon King, and suffered while he never harmed anyone vs this person obsessed in eradicating evil that he became evil.
It’s nice to see a woman who isn’t restrained by what is expected from her but who is doing what is right. It's also good to see how love turned her from a powerhungry person to just a good person.
Qin Qian Xian is such a beautiful person that I cried at the end. It's also beautiful how Jiang Wu was created out of and died for love.
The ML's love for the FL is so touching.
It's a shame that the script is at times very illogical; and the scenes being cut and replaced here and there makes the story less fluent. You know that they are going back and forward in time with the purpose of catching your curiosity, but it happened too often that negatively impacted the way the story is being told. Something that can be improved.
Overall, Bai Lu's series are really binge-worthy. Seems like she makes good choices in accepting her scripts.
Second half is so much better, but the transition isn’t as good as Goodbye my Princess. Not clear how she too lost her memory either.
Episode 38 is so good! Interesting how 'he' fell in love with 'her'. If she gave him a chance earlier, a lot of things could have been prevented. Sad how they had to end this way...
Really do not like the hocus pocus.
The Buddhist emperor is truly evil; while, in contrary, his older brother couldn’t kill him several times.
Really don’t like how the FL keeps distrusting the ML, and he had to give up everything so she would believe him. She's really childish. Much more prefer the Female General as character, and her storyline. Bailu did a great job portraying two different characters. So many actors became famous after this, where they started with playing roles they will never play again.
I dived into this immediately after One and Only, but ended up watching other historic drama's in between, as this story is a bit boring. ZSC is very different here. But continuing there are some resemblances. I'm not sure if SH was just obsessed with this series she's voicing, or if she really remembers the past... until later when she had nightmares.
SH is also different, a lot more straightforward, it's like she's making all the actions towards him, except that this time he did ask her to marry him without losing any time.
The story is quite interesting in the sense that his second uncle is playing his role in the past, if she were to marry someone else and was still with him, and his younger brother is like, if he were to actually rebel. So I could see the deeper meaning behind the choices people made. It's also interesting how she's a voice actor here, while she had trouble speaking in the past. But in general, the story was a bit boring. It seems like they tried to connect with the past but there wasn't much of a link until later. In the past, it is quite something to marry someone you love, but in modern times, the challenges come after marriage. Their love is quite committed, but you only see that at the end, whereas the daily live is a bit mundane. I remain with my review on Forever and Ever, that I hope they had a different ending in that life, and not trying to depend on this life for everything to be better.
This story sheds light upon the changing eras, which reminds me of where we are now, with AI transforming the way we live and work, just like then, when economic developments impacted people and the way they lived and worked, and the uneven development in smaller cities, and the differences this had between societies. Interesting, how this story sheds light into the transport sector, and the development of various segments of it; and how hard poor people work to survive...
The story about this nice "large family" and friendships is really moving, as it's beyond this time to live this closely together; the beautiful father-son moments and the good teacher, which is really rare these days to have good teachers, and what a difference such a good teacher can make in someone's life. In all the fights within the different families you can hear where there is love and where there is only the self... This is also visible in a company's leadership: when there is humanity and where there is selfish greed. All the children grew up into decent persons, and the three of them are all good leaders. It makes clear that it doesn't matter what we do, it's the way we do it and how we treat the people that makes a real difference.
I had expected that Siyi will come back when the two started dating and WH would have to choose, but the story became so real... Spoiler alert - proceed at your own discretion.
Like his father, WH is a decent person, but to me, he grew up a very rational person, brainy, and therefore a bit cold at times, and FH is like his heart, keeping him humane and warm. His love for her really impressed me. It’s nice how comfortable they are around each other, and how real they love each other. I'm also impressed with Xingchi's love, whose feelings make him a more responsible and futureoriented man. Of course, WH and the rest were good friends in helping him with his development, and I'm so happy that he found his passion. It's so beautiful when someone does that, like the rest, such as Haikuo and Chengrui. Chengrui's feelings were also serious, he actually waited. Just like Haikuo's father, who waited all this time. It's also very moving how this story sheds light upon the various brain diseases, and the impact it has.
This story makes me want to know BL better as a person behind all her roles.
Quite amazing for this people's stream to become a World Heritage; whereas, the other sights are all former habitats of the Imperial Family. This is a people's story. The human decency puts a smile on me. This is a story that should be exported.
I like how she is empowering other women, no matter who they are. I like how their love for each other blossomed. Their love is so moving. The way she talks to him in later episodes shows how much she's grown as an actress and as a woman.
The actor of Prince Ning is such a great actor, he also did a great job in a very different role in Go Ahead with Song Wei long. It's just that his final choices in the script were a bit illogical... for the purpose of the script.
Nice to have seen a familiar face in the actor that played her cousin.
It's good to inspire people with her story.
regret is the root of love.
The ordeal of love is over.
From now on, in heaven and on earth,
never to be separated again."
Loved the ending, had to grow into this from the beginning, where they put too much makeup on her face, and the background music and some of the voice dubbing needed to grow into. Like how they immediately started with love, and the little family she had in her palace, before the plot twist, after which the story became even better.

Qin Qian Xian is such a beautiful person that I cried at the end. It's also beautiful how Jiang Wu was created out of and died for love.
The ML's love for the FL is so touching.
It's a shame that the script is at times very illogical; and the scenes being cut and replaced here and there makes the story less fluent. You know that they are going back and forward in time with the purpose of catching your curiosity, but it happened too often that negatively impacted the way the story is being told. Something that can be improved.
Overall, Bai Lu's series are really binge-worthy. Seems like she makes good choices in accepting her scripts.
Episode 38 is so good! Interesting how 'he' fell in love with 'her'. If she gave him a chance earlier, a lot of things could have been prevented. Sad how they had to end this way...
Really do not like the hocus pocus.
The Buddhist emperor is truly evil; while, in contrary, his older brother couldn’t kill him several times.
Really don’t like how the FL keeps distrusting the ML, and he had to give up everything so she would believe him. She's really childish. Much more prefer the Female General as character, and her storyline. Bailu did a great job portraying two different characters. So many actors became famous after this, where they started with playing roles they will never play again.
SH is also different, a lot more straightforward, it's like she's making all the actions towards him, except that this time he did ask her to marry him without losing any time.
The story is quite interesting in the sense that his second uncle is playing his role in the past, if she were to marry someone else and was still with him, and his younger brother is like, if he were to actually rebel. So I could see the deeper meaning behind the choices people made. It's also interesting how she's a voice actor here, while she had trouble speaking in the past. But in general, the story was a bit boring. It seems like they tried to connect with the past but there wasn't much of a link until later. In the past, it is quite something to marry someone you love, but in modern times, the challenges come after marriage. Their love is quite committed, but you only see that at the end, whereas the daily live is a bit mundane. I remain with my review on Forever and Ever, that I hope they had a different ending in that life, and not trying to depend on this life for everything to be better.
