According to the novel summary, she retains her memories...so does she start off being petty or something?

With the number of potentially great dramas coming out, my TBR shelf of web novels is expanding too quickly!

For novel readers. is the drama drastically different from its source material?
I kind of want to read it since the drama editing and ending left a lot to be desired but if it was drastically changed, then I probably won't.

It seems as if the communication was lost between Min Woo and Hari. They obviously both liked each other yet never tread past the line of friendship. While the missed time is forlorn due to the "what could've been"..it isn't right that Min Woo dated/is dating yet is becoming jealous at the thought that Hari could be dating as well.
And just the way he was unintentionally insulting her to Tae Moo when he was questioning why Tae Moo was "dating a girl like Hari" was such a figurative slap in the face. How can he like Hari yet speak of her in such low terms in front of her "boyfriend."

The smartest thing k-dramas on Netflix has done is shorten their length. This drama is fluff so it really doesn't have enough to stretch to 16 episodes.

In the trailer it looks like he jumped after her when willingly fell into the void. Was his human incarnation undergoing a heavenly trial or something?

Random question but with dramas staying in limbo for so long, do actors/actresses get paid regardless of whether their dramas air?

Well, damn. That's quite a shallow reason to reject someone. He definitely wasn't worth her time then.

Thanks for the info! I'm super curious since it's Cheng Yi but it doesn't seem like a novel I would read.

Cheng Yi and Yu Xi are becoming the next Dilireba and Zhang Bin Bin. They are costarring a little too often and on back-to-back dramas.

When I watch Xianxia dramas, I stubbornly expect a happy ending lol
It has the help of magic, eternal life, and reincarnation. Basically 3 crutches that help the genre make a happy ending possible despite all odds.

Oh, I was hoping it was a misunderstanding...but Ying Yuan purposely lied? Did he think Yan Dan wasn't good enough to be his bride?

I'm willing to bet that the drama ending was changed to make Cheng Yi's character the endgame. It's H&R so I highly doubt they would've casted Cheng Yi otherwise.

Why did Zhi Xi lie? Did they not have a good sibling relationship? Did she like Ying Yuan too? Or did she want the title that came with marrying him?

Do you mind spoiler what the major conflict between the leads was? What was transpired or what misunderstanding happened to cause them to separate the first time?

I think that depends on the story. Take Goodbye My Princess; romantically, there couldn't be a happy ending. If it makes sense within the narrative then sad endings can be beautiful.

For readers of the novel: Are you hoping they follow the book faithfully? Or are you anticipating creativity differences? I've heard the novel doesn't have a happy ending so I'm curious since I'm hoping the drama does.

Well, then hopefully they change the ending otherwise that would be far too sad.
It always hurts more to know how much they went through only for all their suffering to have been fruitless...

I thought she chose the other male lead?

Can you spoil why she killed herself?

I was trying to reconcile the ages of the male lead and female lead since the female lead is obviously much younger than Qi Yan is. And honestly, her youth may be the best thing in terms of looking at the situation from an outsider's perspective; only because at the time of the coup, she was too young so she wasn't burdened with all the crap that went down.

This makes her the best one to be his trusted person because she doesn't carry the prejudice that everyone else who survived through the coup have against him.
