WK1

Great episodes. Not sure if they have fast track in China and how many will pay to watch those extra episodes. May need to wait till Thursday, to see the full impact of the latest episodes on total viewership in China.

Do you mean the change in the rating from 8.6 to 8.7? If you are referring to that, no I did not get any notification at all.

If you are referring to whether I get notification of your responses to my message, I would usually get an email notification. But sometimes, I am so busy, I do not read emails. Hence, I respond late to people's comments.

Oh, in that case, our opinion is just about identical and identical with quite a few who have been 'camping' here for the past few months. If you were here about 2 to 3 months ago, you would have enjoyed so many wonderful conversations with us. It is probably quite time consuming, but when you free, and you scroll down a couple of months, you will see what I mean. We discussed all kind of topics regarding this drama.

TLB truly isn't for the average viewer or the mass market. They can enjoy it for sure. But only viewers with the appropriate level of IQ and EQ can extract maximum value out of this drama.

So sorry. What class are you referring to??

It is ok. If all your friends who love this drama already rated this a 10/10, you have done your best. Nothing more can be done. By the way, do not need to feel sorry for your English. It is not bad at all. I understand every word you typed.

Likewise all the male actors. They get to kiss all these gorgeous actresses with no strings attached.

Just want to thank you for taking the time and effort to write this post. It might have taken you between 1-2 hours to do it, not including the research you did to get all the info. Gives so much context to what is happening in the drama.

They are done with that. From E19 onward, moving on to romance between the 2.

Ok, here goes some of my recommendations:

1. Eternal Love of Dream. Here Dilraba is also the main female lead. The main couple is moral. They stick to each other. No third party involved.
2. Princess Silver. Here, the main couple stayed steadfast to each other, although some third parties tried to come in between them. The relationship between the male and female lead is totally monogamous.

You try a couple of episodes and see they work for you.

Thank you for rating this 10, to reflect the degree of appreciation of this drama. You are right that the entire cast did a great job, portraying their respective roles. There isn't a single actor/actress who acted out of character. So, many of us have been hanging around this page for months now, feeling happy to see this drama receving so much love from so many people. While we somewhat disappointed that not more of the battles scenes were acted out in live actions, we were grateful for many of the smaller fighting scenes were extremely well choereographed. Like the one-to-battle between Ashile Sun and Sheer, for instance. Many of us were aware this drama was filmed last year, during the height of the pandemic in China. That they put together this wonderful drama under the circumstance, we were totally grateful.

It really was a joy to read your comment.

No character is 'wasted' in this drama. It all depends entirely on you. How much you are willing to invest. The more you invest, the more you will understand each character, and the change they undergone from start to finish.

When you said you finished everything in 5-6 hours, I thought you were trying to save time, and hence only wanted to focus on the central plot.

Coming to historical dramas, there are many kinds. The harem kind, the kind you do not like, more international do not like those. You mentioned first love. Usually, the kind where they will love each but do not realise it kind is more fun to watch. A bit like TLB. Those are love at first sight, usually less fun. Historical can also be historical rom-com, or a more series one like TLB. So, which kind do you like?

Got it. Think so too. Just a bit surprised, if it is BTS. Where are all the production people?? Only one person in the car with her? The cameraman?? Or maybe this is just an early run-through?

I think it is early stage stomach cancer, which can be treated

You finished the entire drama in 5-6 hours? Did you watch all those scenes when the main couple were each alone?? If you fast forward all the scenes involving Leyan, you will indeed not miss much, as Leyan was not even in the manhua (the comic that this drama is based on, for much of the plot). Apart from those scenes where they were together, you also watched all the scenes were Li Changge was by herself, and Ashile Sun, by himself?

Yes. Very happy ending

He is going into the Tang Dynasty to look for her. So he has to look the way a guy would look like in Tang Dynasty. He cannot have those braided while he was in the grasslands. In short, as long as he is Tang Dynasty, he needs to have his hair in topknot.

Yes, the Xuanwu Gate Incident changed the trajectory of the Tang Dynasty. In some ways knowing it will not spoil your fun but help you understand it better. You will understand why Li Changge did what she did.

I read the incident before watching this drama. Did not feel a single bit that my viewing pleasure was diminished in anyway.

If you do find this to be fabulous and have yet to rate it, do rate it at least 9 and above. This drama suffered from attack by 'haters' in the early days, and rating was brought down.

I totally agree with you. But then Yang Zi fans were not happy at all. When she won those awards, Yang Zi fans claimed that Jaywalk bought all those votes for her.

Regardless of their unhappiness, the history book will still show that Dilraba won those Eagles' acting awards in 2018. Maybe she has to win even more acting awards to get more respect.

And Dilraba wasted so many months some time back, not doing any filming for something like 8-9 months. Those were wasted opportunities. 8-9 means she could have filmed one historical and one more mordern drama.

She and her team will not allow that to happen anymore. She will get 2 dramas aired a year, enhancing her chance of getting more acting awards, and getting the respect she deserves as an actress, and not just doing all those commercials.

It is coming soon, people. Early next year, that is my guess. Feb-March 2022.

Pandamelody below reminded us that filming ended 6 June 2021. Supposed to be big budget drama, so they have lots of money to spend on the CGI. Assuming the post production takes about 8 months to do the CGI, dubbing and all, we get in Feb 2022.

Dilraba already has two dramas aired this year (TLB and YAMG). So, they are not likely to air this in 2021. We might get a severe case of overdosing on her in 2021, and then suffer from massive Reba withdrawal in 2022.

My bet is Feb-March next year. Even if they split into Part 1 and Part 2, they still show this early next year, with the parts coming one after the other, with either no break or just a short break in between.
