this was such a killer list, imo empress ki is ha ji won's life work, I just loved her character to bits, I want to add all three main leads from the new airing drama "WWW", seriously though Tammy, Cha Hyeon and Song Ga Kyung are badass women through and through also Zhanilla Zhou in Story of MingLan was pure art, despite looking timid she was the most courageous and resilent, she was benevolent yet resolute in her beliefs which she held true to the very end also xiao xiao from ode to joy, she was such a brat but a lovely and strong one for sure, and andie too actually it is quite sad that we have so little FLs with a proper characterization, their resolution often times become mere memories when they fall in love, most of the time they start as this awesome FLs yet it is until MLs appear, ugh anyways rant is over thanks for the great list ^^
as a child I thought Lelouch was the good and the just one(though I still think at most he is an anti hero) it's weird how our perspectives change after realizing the wider world around us,
it is such a dillemma, how a leader should be, kind and benevolent, cruel and decisive or is there a fine balance that can be found in between, or do they change for the worse after sometime, do they actually represent the people, i mean is it the cruelty of the masses embodied by the leader, the concept of a ruler in any shape or form is so weird, why do we need order when universe is programmed for eternally more chaos anyways it is a nice article but I would love to read more in depth about the characters and their psychology ^^
Some of my favourite kings that come to mind are Ning Yi & his -flawed but excellently portrayed- father in The…
ning yi was powerful in his own right, altough he isn't my fave he was good at his job, he was a crafty one for sure
p.s. still holding off the last 10 episodes of tRotP, it is such a wonderful yet heart wrenching drama, I just can't bring myself to watch the rest after reading the spoilers for the ending * sigh *
I've seen a few comments lately on different platforms about how Morgan is shady, and at first I was what? But…
he seems too good to be true and since the drama has more reality themed mood going on Morgan may just be the slap of reality and by the end of it we are left with 3 strong women united in friedship and buisness truthfully I wouldn't be mad if he turn out to be the jerk, I 'm just gonna enjoy Tammy and Morgan's chemistry while it lasts
was looking out for new wallace chung drama but this genre is simply gross, also I had a lot of fun reading the comments XD this drama is definitely not my cup of tea
aside from ming lan and gu ting ye, qi heng and the rest of the cast are so on point that is crazy, impressive on your behalf this drama is just beyond perfect for me, the story, acting, editing, aesthetics, not a single moment was wasted and in history genre dramas it is quite a feat to achieve, they didn't try to strech it to 73 episodes but the story actually needed that much time to be told anyways since I really do love and adore this drama I really can't be sold on any k-actors nor anyone else for the leads but still I would love to see a remake ^^
p.s. a remake with more heed to it's original novel content would be even better
I also recently finished this drama. It took me some time to get through even though it was only 11 episodes long.…
I had zero empathy for Sousuke, sometimes I feel for f*cked up characters but he was too much for me with his hypocrisy ps. "Prisoner of love" , ah that song and "Okaeri" from Zettai Kareshi, these two are in my playlist since 2008
I've watched this as a middle schooler and I loved this drama to bits, Ruka 's character just spoke to my soul, actually they all did, since I was at an age where I had less prejudice and experience about most of the matters that the drama had dealt with, I've watched it without any struggle but now I probably can't watch it again while knowing the reality of it all
choi yoo jin was the reason I've kept going till the end and her character is the only thing left a real impression on me(aside from the ji chang wook's naked fighting scene XD ) I don't even think that she was the villian at all, she simply had her interests clashing with the leads and that's what I really love about her, she was an imperfect human being not an evil incarnate Just because we are good to some people doesn't mean that we are good to everyone, I might be someone's villian/enemy out of a really simple matter even without knowing it and that's just life
even after 10 years I still remember how I felt by the end of it, that's how much of an impact it had on me, for me ruka was the real mvp, her struggles were as real as it could get, idk she just hit a cord with me
just read the spoilers, I love chinese historical dramas but enough is enough, if the story isn't based on a historical fact can we just let our leads live their freaking lives just for once, Ming Lan was perfect I'll just keep rewatching that till we have dramas with more sensible endings
You might not have to wait until ep 35. I questioned whether I was going to be able to ship the ML and FL for…
GTY might has the best character developments out there, actually all of the characters were awesome, by the end of it I was blown away how everything made so much sense
I really want to watch this, but i don't think i can deal with the Second Lead Syndrome .
believe me by the time you finish this you won't even remember that the leads had other love interests at all, hands down this series has one of the best character developments I have ever seen
I've finally seen the last episodes and all I can say is this was truly one the most beautiful series I've ever watched, from acting to story itself, from cinematograpy to osts there isn't a single thing I would change, it was wonderful and this series shall stay in my heart that I know
also Zhanilla Zhou in Story of MingLan was pure art, despite looking timid she was the most courageous and resilent, she was benevolent yet resolute in her beliefs which she held true to the very end
also xiao xiao from ode to joy, she was such a brat but a lovely and strong one for sure, and andie too
actually it is quite sad that we have so little FLs with a proper characterization, their resolution often times become mere memories when they fall in love, most of the time they start as this awesome FLs yet it is until MLs appear, ugh anyways rant is over
