I think her character is really interesting. To me she's very well-written. Since you're only on ep 5, you don't seem to know anything about her yet lol. I also rmr feeling the same way as you at first, and I really enjoyed her story arc in the end. I am also still iffy and not on her side about the evil things she did, but I like her character development throughout. Idk if your opinion will change about her but let's see.

Holding my breath for Neo Hou and Xu Zhenxuan for the MLs 🥲😩

Also new rumor for the FL! Oh, by this, I can tell she would be a good fit!

Lowkey the same LOL but I'm still rlly looking forward to this~ I think he will do well. Gong Jun did well in WoH and I'm excited to see a reunion there in here too xD

Anyways, I have always been curious to see how it'd be like if Cheng Hongxin was the ML here. He also did so well in Moonlight Mystique and Coroner's Diary, and it will prob be the same in The Legend of Rosy Clouds (awaiting his bromance with Tian Jiarui rn lol)

To see Cheng Hongxin and Chang Huasen on the same screen would seriously be a treat! Omg, not to mention they were both in MM dang I forgot about that!

We can think of this as Wuxie (Suifeng) coming in to save Xiaoge (Zuoqiu) 🫣

No but like pls get these two in a historical drama with more screentime and a bromance together 😭🙏

Still think they should've kept the original title or just changed it to "Dark River" bc that's what they're called, but this one isn't bad either and fits them, so I'll accept it lol

Is there gonna be another drama with as good OSTs as this... where the cast sings their own OSTs too... So far, not one drama beats FoF in the OST department... even now I still listen to the OSTs repeatedly, more than I do with other dramas...

LOL I never tried getting a sub for MangoTV and prob never will honestly 😂😂

So it looks like iQIYI is picking it up which I also had hoped for awhile! So happy! Have to pray if it's in my country tho (I'm in the US so it's prob likely) 🙏

They're really airing this while LITC is still airing? I am shocked... Did not expect they'd do this... Now I think I need to put one of my dramas on hold if I don't catch up by then 😭

Despite the flaws, I still think this drama should have a higher rating (like it didn't even reach 8.0?)... This just feels too low after having watched the whole thing, oh well. To me, it's much more enjoyable and unforgettable, and a special drama for me as well. Even now I'm missing it huhu

Omg yessss how have u been? 😭😭 (sorry I forgot to reply!)

It's alr confirmed for Viki; you can search and find it. Also this is diff from FSM first series. Not the same crew at all. You can have some expectations. Anyways, even if you didn't, what's the difference lol... we all have our own unique tastes anyway, so either way, you will hold an opinion. Also, fun fact; many great ppl worked on this one (where many worked on other great dramas)

I didn't realize they used the Coroner's Diary sisters as Xinliu. I mean, Xunming saw a resemblance of Xinliu in Zhang Tai, and the actresses of both characters are sisters in CD 😭

I just finished ep 10 and omg everything about it was sooo good!!!! Man, am I digging this!! 😭 Also does anyone else get reminded of FoF where they also get trapped in someone's illusion / dream? Bc I can't help but do so 🫣🥹

Edit: Finished ep 11 and omg that one was too good too!! Let's keep this momentum!! 😍🔥

My guy... Seems like he may be having an OST for Whispers of Fate, Blood River, and Sword and Beloved... Three dramas that are rumored to air around the same time... Man, deserved! Go get em OSTs Liu Yuning 😌

I can see FoF having a weak script. This was like one of my very first C-dramas I watched while airing, so that helped me not get those thoughts (which I'm happy about so I got to enjoy the full ride all the way thru, a drama I was anticipating a lot and didn't disappoint for me)? Idk how to explain. But it became such a special drama for me~ I was honestly obsessed and drawn into it for some reason. The music? Oh, they have the BEST OSTs if u ask me~ Maybe the plot can be weak~ It's like demon vs human kinda thing and the baize token (felt kinda confusing) and love and sacrifices, etc. but then we got a big focus on the two main leads, their backstories, AND their relationship, which ig was enough for me. It seems to be more character-driven where every character (the first eight ones you see in the cast) each have a backstory that makes me love them~ I also love friendship so this did it for me! Maybe this is why... But I think try watching for the soulmatism btw Yuanzhou and Yichen and take away other thoughts? You may fall in love with it. Not to mention there's a 3ML that likes to get in btw them lol a love triangle btw three men hmm...

I will say smth... There is lowkey a love confession from one to the other in this as well (BUT it can be easy to miss, let's see if you catch it 🫣)~ Oh, and soulmate is mentioned too 🫠

It's way better in the second half imo! What made you drop it? I'm curious? Bromance was alr so good since first ep but then dang... it gets very strong starting from ep 15-17~ You will fall in love with their relationship, like their soulmatism is srsly insane, I don't feel this for many pairs (and I see some ppl relate to that as well)~ You will even question the romance added in the drama lol bc uhhh FL seems to enjoy watching the two at times AND it feels like she loves the SFL hehe~ Anyways, we FoF fans call this a polycule drama like no other 😂

Btw, which ep did you drop?

Honestly who wouldn't? Not to mention he's alr got a kind of feminine look so he'd look gorgeous 🫣

Lmaoooo that won't pass censorship girl 😭😭 But seeing u love bromance, pls watch FoF if you haven't alr (I don't see it in your watchlist) bc the bromance there is one of the strongest out there (I'd say it's the strongest bromance of historical C-dramas where it's NOT a censored BL) and it's the same ML here 🥰 Also there is an upcoming filming drama (maybe it's only in the novel, but I hope they keep it in some way where it's not too obvious to the censors) called "Immortalis" where the SML likes the ML (in their female form) (yes, ig it's somewhat like this, idek how exactly tho) and Neo Hou is rumored as the ML (I hope it's true!)
