That song does wonders for her scenes, I want to skip but the song makes me stop. Plus, the actress is doing a fantastic job, I hope she gets more roles.

FSG and FYX being the most sane characters in this whole setting is crazy, both of them are killers that forged their ways through blood yet both of them are the most humane and level headed in this makjang plot.

I've seen a lot harem intrigues and political warfare dramas but at this point this is makjang level, not a single character is sane. And, I love it.

Go for it. This is pretty solid and I've seen a pretty good amount of c-dramas.

These two are couple goals, green pastures all around. From the get go main characters get their backs stabbed left and right so the betrayals, they're pretty obvious.

I was strongly against their romance in the first 2 episodes because he tortured her but they made it all okay in just under 6 episodes. I loved how she tortured him back and they made it all a clean slate then on. It was so even and fair that I had no qualms about their relationship at that point.
This is how you write an equal power couple, they're the best.

The 27th episode was crazy, the human heart hides the deepest darkness afterall. I guessed it would go that way but still it was too much.
They kill all those innocent people yet expect to be forgiven, that trash minister decided killing an innocent kid was his way of revenge. That mindset always gets me, they are delusional. His son did rebel, he wasn't innocent, just because he got caught before he could actually rebel doesn't mean that he is free of guilt or responsibility.
Btw, I love how Jinxiu Emperor berated the princess, he spoke what we all were keeping in our hearts. I hope that wakes her up but I’m betting at some point she’ll find a way to blame Yi Xiao for her misfortune.

This was dope. I didn't read the novel but as a standalone this was so much fun, I don't get the hate.

I wasn't expecting much since modern urban style c-dramas can get really boring but this one a home run.

This whole plot is a beautiful mess, that's what it is. I agree with your points but sans the last part. Hao Ming never thought Xu Yan would dare to leave him, be it love or arrogance, so in reality he never not wanted her.
He wants her in his terms but Xu Yan gave him a reality check with those divorce papers. Also, Xu Yan was ready to build whatever they had even after Hao Ming's blindside so in a sense her wish to divorce is as real as her wish to have Hao Ming's sincere love.

Also, she was never ruthless towards her loved ones, even she cut off her family, she sent money when she heard her father's illness. So, when Hao Ming asked for her help there was no possible outcome where she didn't help him. Plus, let's not forget that she was apologetic towards his parents and that business deal would be helpful to the company and not just Hao Ming.

His sister is so dumb, I can't believe she dares to say all those things to her brother. She is so heartless and worse, I'm afraid she has water for brains.

I don't trust that doctor. Am I being too cynic or have seen too many dramas?

I love how real their characters are in terms of being enemies. These two are generals whom war and countless corpses have molded them into, so I like the fact that both leads are pretty much ruthless no mercy no bs types. Wish Yi Xiao killed Sui Ge when she had the chance, what a shame.
But, there is this big, huge, enormous elephant in the room, which is, these should never ever be involved in anything romantic. I can get behind a type of a friendship but for her loving someone who tortured and beat the sh*t out of her and for him loving someone who almost killed you with a freaking arrow, umm, that doesn't work for me.
You know what, if the beating and the torture wasn't done by him, I could at least give them a chance but ugh, anyways...

Love it for the suspense, no for the romance :)

As much as I find Fang Lei disgusting, there is a part of me that is curious. Girl, what on earth do you even see in Shen Hao Ming, he is a married old hag with a kid on the line. Fang Lei sells herself for too cheap.

I hate how Hao Ming berates Xu Yan and tells how he could never fall in love with a liar(I don't remember the exact wording) but she actually never lied about her background until she met his mother.
So, when factoring that, Xu Yan is actually pretty much innocent from start to finish.
Plus, Hao Ming was so ready to go all the way with Fang Lei just to get that contract, he really is one of the most gross male leads out there.
If this was a historical setting and if he was a prince vying for the throne, he would be the type that would use his wife's military power to rise to the throne then kill her family to fend off future problems.

Anyways, I don't think I'll be ever rooting for their reunion but I hope Xu Yan gets her life together and fills her surroundings with those who truly love and cherish her.

Even her sister found a job as soon as she came to the city, finding a cashier position is hard these days let alone a sales assistant in my country.

Omg, have you guys seen teaser 21, she roasted him on his style, she spoke for all of us XDDD

The more I watch this, more my heart breaks for her. If a child grows up while receiving love on condition that sets them a life full of pain. She chose him for qualifications but gave her heart for mere crumble of kindness.
I hate her sperm and egg donor so much, even that sister of hers is no good. I would say some nasty stuff to her if she was my sister. Ignorance is a bliss but also a sin.

She is one crazy b*tch, and I'm all for it. I think by end, her reason for staying wasn't just about liking him but more so, 'dang, I did every thing for this person, so at least I should get a good lay out of this'.

That's not it at all, wei lan was pretending to be like someone else, as in imitating what she likes and her back story. But, at the end of the day Xing Xu liked her. You don't end up liking someone just because they like white and drink red bean soup.
And, that is fine. Both leads have history, they are on the same playing ground.
