In ep28, he said it was a recent war, a couple of months old at most, Battle of Fanyou.

No matter how far they can go it doesn't matter since themselves said that it was a nearby city, giving the information to the viewer. If distance is nonrelevant it shouldn't be mentioned at all.

It is not about that, logically in war times produce is scarce and since it is a city on border there should be at least some sort of unease that could/would happen due plundering from deserters or even enemies.

Still, if it is an active war zone you can't simply have such a bustling city with all those resources, there isn't even an unease going on in the city so much so that they're relaxed enough to have a lantern festival.

They said let's go to a nearby city to eat after placing the talisman, how far it could be.

I was watching this with a blissful ignorance without caring consistency issues since overall production is so gorgeous but ep29 was such a brain dead moment that it got me mad. Aside from the fact that everyone still believes that fake double we also have a wonderful date spot city next to a gruesome war zone.
Come on, you can't have a prosperous city next to barren war zone which is supposedly is filled with blood lust enough to open the door to netherland, they're even having a lantern festival. Writers and directors are shooting themselves with this one really.

Thank you for your reply :)

Those who have seen it, does this drama has a tight plot?

p.s. I can take a brainless script for romance dramas as long as there is chemistry but this genre needs a well woven story line for me to enjoy.

This is fun, and sometimes that is more than enough.

It has the vibe from 2015 drama scene and I don't hate it. Actually, this is quite fun, not the best writing and acting per say but scenes actually flow with ease.
So far(ep10) aside from glorified business acumen/solutions of the female lead , I'm not really irked by the plot, without comparison this drama is enough in its own right.

First half of the Moonlight Mystique is great but it has the same problem with the Till the End of the Moon, main leads are always barely hanging onto life and at some point it makes you care less and less, hence emotional pay-off balance is way off.
Also there is too much talking with no actual substance, what they're doing is talked about a lot and not much is actually shown through actions. Overall it is a really well made production with an unfortunate pacing issue but still a fun watch for rainy days.

I mean really? There isn't a single plot point that makes any sense so far, your expectations are sorely misplaced for a drama like this.
I turned off my brain cells the moment I clicked that play button yet I still can't get over the pseudo cheating situation.

there are lots of good short length dramas out there with actual decent script, this ain't one of them but the leads are gorgeous so I'm killing my time along with my scarce brain cells at this point.

I'm usually down for a fun guilty pleasure dramas but this one is really not it. Male lead is getting his pleasure for sure but I'm not. Cheating trope(albeit technically not) with so many rape attempts is such a turn off.

So, she is the mistress of her own husband. Make it make sense. I don't care about the technical details, he is cheating on his wife, period.
Btw, this drama doesn't even deserve a comment, I'm just bored and I've been fast forwarding the heck out of it even though this is a 10 minute drama.
I've seen a lot of budget dramas with duration ranging from 1 minute to 10-15 minutes and this really ain't it. I can't understand how a drama like this can even get a budget.
In short this drama is the epitome of watpadd meets chatgpt in the worst way.

p.s. it is kinda fun though, both leads and their scenes together are hot, no skimping on the skinship XD

I really like that thought process.

Not really, at some point of our lives everyone is the evil for someone else and is the best thing in the world to another. Those two things are not exclusive nor in contradiction.

that wasn't love, it was obsession towards something he couldn't have, like a child wants a toy Moli wanted XY.

I skipped all of their scenes, especially Lanling, I've seen a lot of this genre but they might be the most brain dead bunch of all time, their pure ignorance and stupidity makes them evil and I think that is the worst type evil, ignorant, unfeeling and obstinate.

So, love wins all? I just hate that, for once I want to see a complete destruction of everything without the so called evil dying. Love triumphs all makes no sense, none.
I think the second half was too repetitive and too much story telling instead of showing.
Like we had long talks about, why are you doing this you evil being, that is just lazy writing. Idk, I don't hate this and it definitely broke my heart in the best way when it was needed but some characters died/got hurt too many times only to come back after 20 minutes later and at point I've stopped caring about them.
