Random thoughts: I've never read the novel, so I have no idea if my thoughts are way off base, but I'm picking up on a few themes/motifs that I'm enjoying - it's not just a love conquers all type fantasy idol drama.
The most notable is this matter of appearances. MQG appears to be one way, but in reality, we know her to be a warm, compassionate master and human being. SYS has that face curse and wears a mask - he too appears one way but is also holding a lot in underneath the surface. Better not to be like those presumptuous cultivators who are quick to judge on appearances/surfaces.
The matter of identity and destiny: not a novel idea in xianxia (nature vs nurture), but it's playing out well here in this drama. SYS is the "Devil Child" and that identity and the life that comes with it is forced upon him by his dirt bag father. MQG sets out to change that fate for him - and it proves to be a difficult task (hence everything going to hell in her past life). But for us who do not know where our future lies, it is worth the endeavor to find our better selves (I'm pretty sure that's where the story is going). Nothing is for certain in the future.
I'm sure there's more, just no time to sit down and digest it all.
Do anybody know which drama Melons of him has more chance?His latest drama is with Li Qin as far I remember he…
The rumor regarding The Days of Seclusion and Love (风月不相关) is the strongest I'd say right now, but who knows honestly. In any case, I think that drama does seem to be filming soon from what I can gather online.
Can’t wait till he finds out MQG isn’t MQG💀 He’s gonna lose his shit. He’s a fooool
LOL can't wait. He's the "villain" that you can't really hate in this show - and the actor knows it, he's just having fun with the role. Obviously the big bad is someone else.
Meh, I never really trust the ratings to be honest, especially as a drama is airing. In the end, people have different preferences. For example, Till the End of the Moon is at 8.6 - and I really couldn't stand that one for the most part.
I'm liking it a lot so far. Not always a fan of xianxia these days (maybe because I'm just getting older), but this one has an interesting story and performances so far. I really enjoyed seeing Deng Wei in LYF, but he's even better here.
