That look NF gave at SXY at the ep1 script reading – hopefully there has to be something behind it (fingers crossed). What if NF is NH? I feel like NF is entered in the NH body like SXY with SYM. What if it is some kind of time loop twist, like NH showing up in the present just as everything from episode one kicks off? That would be such a clever full-circle moment. Also, NF stayed completely silent in the script reading. It is way too sketchy to ignore. At first, I thought it was just a cheeky nod to show how actors can sometimes be super self-absorbed and domineering and their managers unrealistic demands. But what if the silence was actually frictional NH entered into the NF body, and he was therefore lying low, watching everything and piecing it all together to figure out what the hell is going on? That would flip the whole scene on its head. As the story progresses, we realise how NH was misunderstood by everyone. That guy was the master of getting misunderstood. It’s almost like his superpower. His action further amplifies his situation. What if the actor NF were also misunderstood by others? Remember in ep1, SXY and others were bizarre in how absurd he was. In the second and third arcs of the story, SYM was so adamant to believe NH was the worst. (Can’t blame the girl fully knowing how the original story flows.) The key concept of this story is that it is not what it is how it looks.
THIS! I went back to watch the iconic 3-way stabbing scene and modern CGH (he is pissing me off in recent episodes,…
Girly, listen. I actually thought there might be a childhood connection, like it is an ultimate trope. Most of these childhood connections are very brief and random. Despite being overused, even recent modern dramas have it. For a historical drama like this, which is based on absolute chaos, it is quite possible. Remember in Ep1, during the script reading, the screenwriter said that audiences love messy, over-the-top dramas. Also, SYM mentioned her parents passing and the fire incident a few times. Also, her fear and desperate attempt to save her fictional Song parents. She doesn't want them to die like her own did. She really missed her parents. As you have thought, there may be a connection with NF, similar to what was in the Love Scout Kdrama. Therefore, her fire incident has some weight in the story.
Your second theory is my fav, and it is very adorable, little NH falling for little SXY (Uwu my heartu), and it's practically possible too. (From my personal experience, I'm telling you, girl, as a kid I admired many child actors. But as we grew up, almost every child actor I knew faded away from the screen to pursue education and other careers. But I still remember each one of them. They were part of my childhood. There was a child artist at the time – let me tell you, there was no teledrama or movie without him. But now he is rarely on screen. If he is, it is usually a supporting role. Quite similar to SXY) The little NF, who was once a part of her audience, is now pulling strings to act alongside her. It is twisted yet daring. I honestly love how you came up with these theories.
I think NH is NF! Only he's not aware of it yet. I rewatched the meeting of the cast and crew in the first episode…
THIS! I went back to watch the iconic 3-way stabbing scene and modern CGH (he is pissing me off in recent episodes, but I grow to like the actor's voice). So I ent back to check his usual modern look. Like you have said, I noticed there are definite clues in their script reading scene, like when NF walks out of the room, he gives a visible sneaky check at SXY. It implies something. Also, SXY was the only actress willing to act alongside the mighty demanding NF. Maybe he messed with all the other selected actresses until SXY accepted the role. I feel like the modern world's NF definitely has something to do with SXY/SYM. Either he previously knew her or was waiting to get to know her. Their interaction in the story as SYM and NH will simultaneously influence their dynamics as SXY and NF.
Those who are watching, can you please tell me how this is going on? Way too intense or moderately intense? Any betrayal on the romantic part? ML seems to have many wives. Are villains villaining well or plain as$ stupid?
"people who are broken in different ways, learning how to keep living. Its about survival in all its forms whether it looks brave, messy or quiet." Wow! It is the soul of the story. You captured it beautifully. ^-^
Xu Nuo was held hostage by Chi Ye she is supposedly terrified and trying to get away from his grasp; however at 5:55 min she is the one leading Chi Ye out from the rusted boat and Shen Jia He. That was bad directing and wasn't aligned the with the story. 😭
