I don't think it's realistic. I mean, sure he wants to do it but what are chances? Don't get me wrong, I'd die…
It makes sense to think that way tbh. I mean I am on both ends of the stick too for the most part lol. I consider things like how these two prob have really busy schedules esp when you think about their popularity as actors. And also, two seasons don't often happen. But that isn't to say it's impossible to happen in the future. I guess you never know. Just gotta take the author's words with a grain of "salt" until there really is some big, clear clue or announcement about it.
And I would say the same that a prequel isn't encessary as it's basically them doing missions which would still be fun. But since we are told about how they were like, it isn't as much. But maybe we'd learn more about their younger days too that we haven't learned yet. For instance, I know Hailou lived a tough life before meeting Haiqi where his family were living in an area where food was scarce to the point of cannibalism (ofc that would be taken out...) which is really sad. So yeah, we really didn't have everything in the drama sadly. But since that's in the original script, maybe it's not needed (or can't even be told anyway) anymore.
But yeah, if there's gonna be one, a sequel would def be more fitting bc of the open ending. How did Zhang Qiling manage to bring Haiqi back to life? We were just mourning for her only to get her back last minute. Now where is Haixia? When Hailou noticed he was stabbed from the opposite side of his heart, did he also do the same for Haixia so he wouldn't die (meaning not being able to come back to life or whatever). I think from the clip he actually might've. It was bc of Heixia he had to kill him. Not to mention, how was there no funeral nor even a grave to be seen for our Haixia π
Lol sorry I wrote a lot ππ But yeah, let's see what happens in the future... I will take what NPSS said with a grain of salt (with still a bit of hope even if it seems impossible) until there really is some actual movement.
NPSS talking about a possibility of another season and he's thinking about doing a prequel?? π€― I mean, I knew this, but he just mentioned it in a livestream as if he's more likely to go with this... No, but honestly? To see them before all the chaos would be so nice stoooop omg π₯Ί But then again, I also want a sequel, bc it felt like there was more to come with the open ending it had π Lol if it's me, I'd be in such a dilemma... Or else they plan to make two more seasons (which was also thought about)? π€
I didn't need the waterworks to start again tyvmππ that was such a lovely tribute to him I feel like rewatching…
Thank you for taking the time to watch it and for the compliments omg it really really means a lot π₯Ίπ₯Ήπ And I can only wish Xiao Ding could see it too... Ofc it's not likely to happen tho ππ
And what a coincidence... I read ur reply and then when I went on X this is the first thing I see!
The author talking in a livestream about NBDA S2... Like if it doesn't have the fixed cast then it's a no-no... Ofc he didn't forget π₯Ή Pls update us for a confirmation soon tho like ππ
Also the longest hyperfixation I had for a drama was Fangs of Fortune... the biggest standout was also the MLs' soulmate bond π And then in NBDA we got some of those parallels too so I guess it was meant for me to be hyperfixated on this drama for a long time too lmao ππ
Guys... Ding Yuxi had another concert today and he brought back Zhang Haixia, like ofc... He literally wore the entire wardrobe of him (you can check thru the videos that are posted on DYX fanpages)... Dude is seriously not over this character of his, like how can WE move on if HE can't? Oh, and he even brought the family portrait of our trio! PLS BRING THESE THREE BACK TGT (get them another season)!! π
Btw, I am sooo late but since Ding Yuxi brought back Zhang Haixia, I wanna share my MV for him... I know most ppl are prob over the drama now, but I'm not, so here (for those who see this)... Here's Zhang Haixia and his theme song "Once" π
Does anyone else think Bao Shangen and Ma Qiuyuan look similar to each other?? I see no one ever talking about it... I watched BSE in WoF and GtG, and just watched MQY in KTTPH, and I couldn't help but feel they look so similar like they could legit play as siblings! Now I can't wait for this even more after learning they're both here omg!!
Crazy to see how in MOGA (Melody of Golden Age) the FL's best friend is played by Xiao Yan while in here (who ended up being an ex-best friend) it's played by Fan Shiran, and both actresses played as best friends in one of my favorite modern dramas, Eight Hours lol...
Hello, how are you enjoying the romance?Do you mind replying when you are done with final thoughts on this drama?
Finally finished the drama. Well, the last eps weren't the greatest imo. Idk where it started but somewhere ep 30+ it felt like a mess / disaster lol... And that SML's presence was the main reason for it for me. I do feel some bad things could've been prevented which sucked. But yeah, it's a HE so there's that!!
And since u asked about the romance, I will say I like both leads but they each can be annoying in their own way when it comes to their relationship lol it's like sometimes I won't like the action of one of them towards the other and be angry at them ("Why did you do this?"), and then sometimes it's the same with the other character too lol. But when they do have romantic moments, they can actually be adorable. Anyways, it's a bit of a mess honestly (execution, script, relationship, etc.), but for me it's worth watching overall. Idk about you lol since my opinion isn't yours, so do what you feel like doing (to decide to watch it or not)!
I also mainly watched this for TRTS and I'm glad I did bc I wanted to watch it b4 that drama so now I'll start it! I do feel that drama is gonna be a lot better too (prob an improvement in their relationship as well)!!
That indeed sounds so refreshing! 9th can't come fast enough π Shrimpie as a salt dealer in an alt universe…
Dude's eye acting is insane... He really shows how much he loves the FL and is also very protective of her. Even the FL can be reckless a lot of the time and ML tries to warn her but she does the dangerous things anyway which leads to him coming in to save her. Kinda reminded me of how Hailou used to be reckless in the beginning too and how Haixia would tell him things like "Be careful" "Don't make me always clean up after your mess" "Don't touch [insert thing] because it can be dangerous", etc. lol. It did get a bit repetitive in MOGA but she finally understood the consequences eventually. Imagine seeing Haixia actually always cleaning up after Hailou's mess (before all the tragedy happened) tho lol this makes me lowkey wanna see it even if I may get a little stressed with this guy (since we know Haixia would be very selfless and protective of Hailou despite all that). Bc in the end he learned from his mistakes π But with how they did it in NBDA, rather than being stressed with Hailou, for some reason, he was the type to amuse me lol might be his funny personality!

I'm watching Melody of Golden Age and I recall some NBDA stuff too. Like there's a scene the FL puts too much salt in his food and ML is like, "Why too much salt?" when there's another scene where both ML and FL are in a place were lots of snakes appear, and ML protects FL from a snake coming at them sksksksks I can't help but think of Hailou and Haixia here lmaooo and then there's someone the ML was close with who became terrible that killed many innocent people (not in the way Haixia did but became bad bc of his obsession and stuff) and he was heartbroken and turned away from him (like Hailou did to Haixia) but also wanted to believe in that person that they still have a heart, and in the end, that guy ended up turning around (like Haixia who never wanted the bad things to happen). OH RIGHT, someone was giving ML a nickname with the word "hero" which the "xia" in Haixia comes from the word "xia ke" meaning "hero" and I'm like, "Woah, okay... That's Haixia!" Sorry, I am just so not over NBDA LOL...
Hello, how are you enjoying the romance?Do you mind replying when you are done with final thoughts on this drama?
The romance has been mostly a mixed bag for me. There are many moments I really feel the thrill of it then there are other moments that I'd get stressed with them bc it felt a bit too repetitive for my liking (miscommunication, not confessing and making the other believe they like someone else, the jealousy (esp on Shen Du's side)), but it gets better! I am actually enjoying the romance more now! Currently I think the second half is better (others may think otherwise). I am only on ep 29 tho so I'll share my remaining thoughts once I finish!

HAHAHA I LOVE THIS CONNECTION OMG SKSKSKS our Shrimpie and Salty Zhang really still have these connections outside of NBDA and I am LIVING for it!! I mean, Shrimpie really was the type to have to "deal" with his Salty Zhang...
So I did decide to start this, and I went into it with very low expectations. I am enjoying it more than I thought. I think if I had watched it while it was airing or had higher expectations, I prob wouldn't have been enjoying it much. Timing really matters when it comes to deciding which dramas you watch imo. Anyways, I can't wait for the cp again in TRTS aahhh! I already know that drama will be even better!!
Random but I went on The Spirealm page and remembered how that one initially aired it as 78 eps/20 min but was then divided into 38 eps/42 min after the airing. I hope this drama will be smth like this length! It just looks too good to be much shorter than that.
I just saw an edited clip and Zhang Xiaoyu (I believe that's him) reminds me of LT Zhang with the way he acts with Ba Ye... He even looks similar to him with the mask on... Frick I am missing that dude rn ππ
And I would say the same that a prequel isn't encessary as it's basically them doing missions which would still be fun. But since we are told about how they were like, it isn't as much.
