If you had told me in the beginning of this drama that I would end up loving Nan Rui and Nan Heng's relationship as brothers, I would have a laughed hysterically in your face. But theirs is one of my favorite arcs (as brothers) in the whole show.

He’s done a great job in ADWAD giving off those villain vibes as second ML. I think this role will suit him well

The previews seem to suggest he really is going all the way crazy

Last 6 episodes to go. How crazy will Chu Gui Hong end up? Will screenwriter be friend or foe? Can't wait to see how it all unfolds.

😂

She definitely looks the part for the second FL.

Yeah, funnily, her fake family became real to her and whether she wants to admit it or not, she has been more invested and involved with the people in the storybook world that she had been in the real world. It's a lesson to her to not take her life for granted (she feels like she is a washed up actress, etc).

Yes, I loved that short drama.

A lot of this drama doesn't make sense lol. Yes, by ep27, she knows that Shen Zai Ye is helping to find a permanent cure for her poison - and he doesn't need her help to spy on 3rd prince. She already knows 3rd prince is in cahoots with Empress Lv - she should get the hell out of there and start working with the right people to bring those people down. I'm just trying to slog to the end of this because I already wasted all this time lol.

No one in this show seems to be making great decisions.

LOL, about time!

Love the more metaphysical aspects of this script in ep 31. In the end, whether it is a "fake" world or not, Nan Heng decides to live it to the fullest.

Looks like Kong Xue Er (as second FL) is on set now.

Kylo Ren from the Star Wars sequel films (he is Princess Leia and Han Solo's son). He's a much more annoying, petulant version of Darth Vader. A wannabe Darth Vader.

Yeah, I find Kylo Ren more petulant and befitting CGH's recent behavior lol.

Yeah, I'm scared what he'll do next. Crazy man will do more crazy.

LOL, if I rated anything 0.5, I wouldn't be watching it. That would have to mean everything in a production sucked (costumes, music, art direction, script, acting, etc). I agree that the rating system on MDL is weird.

Yep, he's a goner. His army has been absolved of any wrongdoings, and the truth of like EVERYTHING is out, so what more does he want? He just wants NH dead - why? Can't reason with a man who's lost his mind lol

I think anything is still open for discussion and critique. I enjoy a good slow burn myself, but I think this story could have overall been abbreviated in parts and streamlined. Otherwise, it overall ends up being somewhat repetitive and diminishes the impact of certain dramatic moments and muddies the overall development of characters and themes. But that's how I see it.

Despite all the twists and turns, I am seeing some growth in Mudan in this second part that is welcome. Much as I love her confidence and frank nature (especially in part 1), it's good for her to see that not everything is so simple. While I she definitely has the abilities and guts to make it on her own, I am looking forward to her working together with those around her to succeed (hint hint, with Jiang Chang Yang).
