Dude was doing shaddy stuff and running the whole murder ring to reincarnate his Lil sister, so NO you are not…
I guess I was hoping for a more nuanced character, LOL. It was obvious he was shady, but given his past with Shen Du, I was hoping for something other than psycho. But this isn't that type of drama, and I'm ok with that.
He's just another villain of the day like Mrs. Tang. But now things are becoming clearer - a bit. That Lai dude is definitely the main villain (or at least one of them - I think that Princess is another). I'm guessing angst is coming our way in the last 10ish episodes. Hope things aren't a rushed mess - I'd like to see a proper build up to a satisfying showdown and some nice couple moments with our leads.
Ep 24-25 are some of my favorite so far - not only for our leads finally sorting things out with their feelings. I feel we finally get some added depth to other characters (like Pan Chi), and there seems to be a lot beneath the surface around governor Mo. I find him a much more intriguing character already compared to Lai Louzhi, who just seems your typical cray cray but with a thing for the one girl who is nice to him (but who is insufferable).
Oh my god, can we get rid of that useless, extremely dumb Lu Chui Chui? There is nothing cute about her and if…
Yeah, I'm afraid I cannot stand her character either. There's also nothing interesting to me about that crazy Lai guy falling for her. It's too comical (to me at least) for someone like him with someone (dumb) like her.
Just a bit past half-way with this drama, and I'm enjoying it for what it is - something nice to pass the time. It's not super compelling, but there's nothing horribly wrong with it either for me. But I agree, our leads need a true heart-to-heart soon or else the slooooow burn is going to snuff out completely for me lol.
How's this on the latest episodes?I couldn't watch beyond 4.
I liked ep 14. Ep 15 is the lowest for me so far - trying to make some drama between the leads but in a clumsy way that makes the FL in particular seem out of character, reckless and ungrateful. But maybe ep 16-17 smooth that out, I haven't seen them.
Really liked ep 14. Ep 15 not so much. Writing is uneven just to drive the plot sometimes. But I think both leads are performing well - just wish had some better stuff to perform with lol (meaning the script).
Two episodes in, and while this is a very typical period idol production (and not a fan of the dubbing), I think I'll stick with it. The story is reasonably engaging and has my favorite trope - get married first and fall in love later.
