There is a bit of a wuxia drought on as the year nears its end, so I just binged 10 episodes of this 2017 version of Condor Heroes and I have to say , not bad actually, liking it better than the 2008 version so far.

Ep 19 so many feel good moments.
The stuttering scene with the history teacher was so well done, it would be great if all teachers were as understanding and unique in their teaching methods.

Thank you, I can also watch it on YouTube without English subtitles , still hoping for a miracle I guess

Yes agreed, that is how it is here. One particular university where my eldest attended had a majority of Chinese students. Hence we cater for a large Chinese population .

I see all that in the drama, thank you for elaborating further, so Zhixiang is really like a private school, thats the one thing I couldn’t quite get a grasp on. Well I guess I fell for the Zhixiang in my country and we have many Chinese students at our universities here that pay huge fees so it is quite interesting how people get around the crackdowns.

Thank you for clarifying, I agree, I would just love them to get into college, any college and out of the suffocating environment they are coming from.
It is a world wide problem that mainly the rich or exceptionally talented get into the best schools. I do feel for these kids as if I am part of their success story, so I guess the actors have done an amazing job to have us so invested in them. Both my girls have diplomas and degrees but I had to pay for their education before they entered university and I feel educated should be equal for everyone.
Another minor point whilst we are discussing this drama, I really really hope Lei Ming and SangXia do not become an item, its creeps me out, don’t know why .

Do you think so? The kids are fairly wise now, maybe in their minds hopefully its college at all costs not just Qinbei. Although I do hope they get into Qinbei because that is what spurs them on and what Lei Ming promised them, I hope he fulfills his promise to them.

Was really looking forward to watching this, at this stage not in my area either 🥲

I do understand theyvwere proxies, however they did go through the wedding ceremony and share a room for as short a time as it was. The way that setting was portrayed made me think that they were married. Different take on scene I guess 👍

Ep 16 and 17 was sad to see the separation angst thing happening here as well. I sincerely hope we get back on track for those kids going to Qinbei. We see Lei Ming caring still for them. I know its a drama but it is so good that I am fully invested in what happens to the kids and Lei Ming 🙏

I loved this drama and agree the rating system is not quite right, I rated it a 9 as opposed to the average of 7.8.
I found the ending a little lacklustre but I did not ship them as a couple anyway, I just enjoyed their banter along the way.
Didnt they get married with the other couples? Whats with the proposal at the end and having courtship time together, didnt they already do that throughout the episodes?
Apart from those niggley bits at the end it was a humorous and refreshingly different storyline.

Yes, realistically I agree, somehow I did have a hope that there was a genius there and maybe nit win 🥇 first prize but up there somewhere 🥲
What great kids though , I really really hope they get into Qinbei, sad that this episode is not giving us much hope.

So true, I never thought of that possibility, I should have because of how the gang on horseback were riding through the field. Nevertheless quite a sad ending for me.

I did finally finish this drama and my last thoughts were why all the killing off of key characters. Chu Yue was not close to the characters so interesting they used her in the end. I am still in The Petty Club and still annoyed at Yuan Lu s and Yu Shisan s demise.

Another exceptional episode 15, Go Li Ran. I am however worried about what the teasers show, I hope not 🙏

Is that good?

I am really excited after watching episode 7 for the older sister to get back with her ex , he clearly still loves her and he will realise to get her back, he has to become stronger and stand up to his family. The younger sister looks cute with the dolphin guy also but that is probably because he is a cutey . Not so worried about SamDal she will find her way.

I agree, I hope it had high ratings too. There are many out there who wont even watch a great drama because if some perceived insult to their idol etc, its quite amusing really. Anyways I am loving this story and cast irrespective of ratings ❤️

Yeah, I get it but the mothers tone is very accusatory , I just would not handle my kids like that, I feel so sorry for what happened to SamDal so I would always give her the benefit of the doubt as her parent. The mother is not doing that at this stage.

Oh, I agree, thats what I thought, they all interact very beautifully together, hope it continues
