And it's also Yuanzhou being jealous of Yichen giving his attention to Wen Xiao lol like it's sooo obvious man!! At first it did look like Yichen really had a crush on Wen Xiao but tbh I didn't even notice this or even thought of this on my first watch but actually how I was wondering if he likes Yuanzhou lmaooo but then I realized maybe he does after the swing scene lmaoo but then after my rewatch, during the swing scene you also notice how Yuanzhou WANTS Yichen's attention? Like man... My BL mind BUT I came into this drama not even knowing there'd be BL elements like?? And I never think of this while watching as many xianxia dramas I watch normally, so it was a surprise the more I watched and seeing even more and stronger BL elements appear. As for Yichen's love for Wen Xiao, I think it wasn't that deep of a love but more like he really cares for her. I think he came to terms in the end, of his realization of how much Yuanzhou means to him.
100%. Like the main story is about them. It's focused on their relationship and their growth in their relationship. We see in the beginning how it started with grudges and then we see a gradual shift in their relationship where they come to love and understand one another deeply, which makes their story so beautiful and touching. And you're right. I watch a lot of xianxia dramas, and Yuanzhou and Yichen's dynamic really fit well with a story of lovers. For example, their fate. They both have such a sad fate together that even ties more to the past of Ying Long and Bingyi. It's almost like as if they are their reincarnations (which I theorize they could possibly be) due to how they connect and align with them so well. And then there's the "I must protect you. I can't watch you die." They always try to protect each other no matter what. It shows how much they mean to each other. And it also fits so perfectly with the enemies to lovers trope. And how Yuanzhou and Yichen are opposites too, so it's like they cover themselves with their cloaks of their weaknesses (which literally happened between them too). We got one who is extroverted and one who is introverted and cold. Pretty common between lovers in a xianxia.
Hahaha yessss that one!! I didn't get it the first time but as I was watching it I was reading discussions about the eps and people be saying how he's looking at his lips and then I got the context later and like omg it was right in our faces like?? Lol and there are so many scenes I came across with these different interpretations that it brings me so much amusement and shock how this passed censorship xD Maybe you saw it too but I wanna share another one for one!
https://x.com/dramaticath/status/1874388136400412716 Like lol I lowkey feel bad for Wen Xiao but it's obvious that Yuanzhou's attention is on Yichen haha like it may look like he's jealous of Yichen for caring for Wen Xiao, but then it seems like he wants to provoke a reaction from Yichen lol like the way they bicker when she's in the middle so it lowkey feels like, while he may care for Wen Xiao's illness, it's not what his attention is on (if yk what I mean) xD But then again, yep... it's ambiguous so it's up to us how we view it lol but for me this is def how I view it!
We are halfway through the drama and Iām starting to feel so bored. I literally pressed play on the last 2 episodes…
Dang you're kidding me... I haven't even started on the next episodes and we're still not getting their screentime? I was looking forward to it for the next ep bc of that preview ughh such wasted potential š
And you're right... It's been getting boring and draggy... Like after the incident in Eastern Country, we've not been getting screentime in Eastern Country and what Ben and Sasin are dealing with over there which is such a bummer...
Tbh, this drama is dragging for me for the last 10 eps or so (I don't remember when it started but it was after everything that happened in Eastern Country) that I've decided to watch at 1.25x at times. We barely got any Benjamin and Sasin scenes, like I wished they could balance it out throughout the episodes. As a military drama, I wanted to see more of that. To see what's also happening in Eastern Country and see what they're doing, how they're helping the people, and how they overcome the obstacles, but we aren't seeing enough of that. It looks like next episode will be interesting tho, so I look forward to it!
Lol wait I just found out that Omid plays a character named Yichen and I can't help but think of Tian Jiarui in Fangs of Fortune now... esp that Omid even played in that drama... dang okay Btw y'all know when this is likely to air? I thought this month but is it likely changed?
Can someone please tell me WU SHAN played by actor QUAN YI LUN,what that character was,I'm very bad at remembering…
He's the character that liked the FL in the beginning and really wanted to be with her but we don't see him later on in the drama where he leaves to go somewhere (don't exactly remember where). I remember seeing him in MM and when I noticed it was him I was totally mesmerized by his beauty!
So Li Zan's dad lives in Jiangcheng? That time when Li Zan said, "I'm going to Jiangcheng to see dad." Dang how I wished he was actually going to Jiang Cheng! Sorry, I had to say it~ If you know, you know š«£š Man am I missing Jiang Lin a lot š
yeah so ppl on weibo and xhs are saying that the new acc is fake, iqiyi has given up on it and theres no copyright…
Then what about the announcement they made a few days ago about it? That's gotta be a sign it's coming one day, right? I can't have this not air, I've been waiting and anticipating on this one a lot šš
Is this Deng Wei's voice? I listened to his voice b4 but I'm not super used to it yet. But he sounds so nice and natural. I think it might be his real voice tho, right? If so, this would be the first drama of his I watch without himself being dubbed by someone else which is refreshing!
bro this was such a huge spoiler to me like i did have a thought that maybe he didnt die and is being treated…
It's too early to say I saved you bc... I mean, we don't know yet how they'll do it here OOF š„²
Tbh he might be my favorite character, so him being dead would break my heart a lot šš Plus it's too early and he seems to be a big role, so we gotta just hope they give us a plot twist that he's alive in the drama š«š
I'm so worried for Jiang Lin... I've been thinking about him as I watch the episodes full of worry... Gosh, just watching the recent episodes breaks my heart so much! He can't just leave us this early... We're not even halfway yet... And seeing A Zan whenever he thinks about him... I can't anymore šš
But as I'm writing this, I just found out that in the novel he doesn't die, so Imma just hold onto the hope he's alive! Pleaseeee I'm begging they don't change his ending! š¢š
