My all time favorite drama is the Untamed. It is a solid TEN out of TEN. I didn't write a review on it because…
Thanks :) I understand what you mean, I only wrote simple reviews myself for dramas that are not so popular which may prove to be more useful for others.
Oh my God... I can not imagine watching Shutter in a cinema... I was scared watching in my phone, I can't even…
Oh... it was so intense on big screen - especially the "car chase" and the "wall scaling" moments... Haven't really caught any horror movies for a while as my family doesn't wanna watch with me. My last horror movie was "The Wailing" which is such a disappointment. "Train to Busan" was ok but probably more of a thriller and horror...
Nah its not that bad at all. Just a lot of plot development happens in the last 6 it should have been better spread…
Never completely aired? Meaning there should be a season 2 that never came? Love of a thousand years, I like Zhao Lu Si! I didn't know he was in there, think it kinda escaped my radar due to the ratings.
Shutter is my favs among the list... I remember watching it at the cinema and it was really scary driving back. Don't recall any other horror movies that left an deep impression after. I remember those HK horror movies that I watched when I was young, probably should be lame if rewatch them now.

Wow that is too long a drama for me! The only other drama I know he was in is an adaptation of a Chinese anime. It is a pretty lengthy anime that is in it's 3rd season and still running so I am not sure I wanna start on the drama.

LOL... this role is totally the opposite of the only other show I watched with him in it - Love o2o. Not all good looking dudes can look good in period dramas especially with the hairdo, he's one of those that look good. Just that he looks really young. The casting in China is very often perculiar, often you see young looking actors as generals etc and old looking chaps as young adults.

I am actually more impressed with the FL now that she realises she loves the ML, really mature and thoughtful. The ML on the other hand became abit frustrating to watch... doesn’t get his priorities right and not decisive. So far only episode 17 I am not so impressed, the rest were ok.

Thanks, maybe a season 2? - but I saw in the opening theme song that they got married so guess it's over in 1.
Didn't wanna commit to too many dramas like I did earlier. I started this while waiting for new episodes of Sleepless Princess - almost dropped it 2 episodes in, glad I didn't.
Started 2 days ago and binge watched until episode 15 least night. It is quite a good watch if can bear the first few episodes which is more like a setup. Just saw a few comments that the ending is not that great, not looking forward to that since it is considered a long drama for me with 36 episodes - there should be ample time to close it nicely. :(
Hi all! Just did the recaps for episode 19 below. Please do add a comment if the content confused you.
Episode 19
TY felt that CY has changed since coming back this time. After meeting XY and able to rest well at night, she obviously looked and felt better.
NN and CY became closer after she protected her during the recent abduction attempt. She brought along the divorced letters and asked CY if she is going ahead with it and to check with XY. She feels that even if a couple is always at loggerheads, true feelings will still surface in times of distress. NN questioned about the lack of security on that day, especially at critical spots. CY also remembered that XY was not himself that day and suspected that she might have been used as a bait though CY refused to think of XY as a selfish guy. NN felt otherwise as it was obviously a plan by XY, CY decided to confront XY about it rather than guessing.
XY was worshipping General Xue Yishan, who was seriously injured during the conquest in the West and died of illness thereafter. During one of the battles, both XY’s parents perished in defeat and thus not hailed as heroes. CY comforted XY that he has fulfilled their ambitions, and if not for him the residents of the South would still be in danger from the West. When ask about his brother, XY said he was a palace guard who perished in a fire 6 months ago to protect the royal ancestor tablets in a temple. Since his parents’ death his brother doubled up as his father and he was devastated that he died as he was his closest relative. Seeing XY in this state, CY could not bring her to ask him about the incident.
CY then went to visit XY’s aunt who was still not awake. Thinking back she suddenly understood that XY loves her as he jumped of the cliff after her. All these years she had been living an abnormal life and because of XY she was able sleep well and feel normal again. Even though something was amiss that day, she refused to doubt XY unless he admits it himself.
NN heard from LJ that XY indeed used CY as a bait and went to confront XY, asking him how he can bear to put CY in danger and that he has changed. After which XY immediately went himself to find CY to explain that he was behind it and cannot revealed yet why he did it. He would be at her disposal once things come to an end. NN at this moment took XY out for a walk.
XT’s aunt then woke up, accused XY of ill-treating her niece-in-law and want him to bring CY back at all cost. She was aware that CY stayed by her side all this while.
That evening, XY waited at the door for CY to return but ran away upon seeing her come back. CY could smell that he was there though. She knew that she could not sleep with XY anymore so ask TY to collect the bedding from XY’s room. XY decided to send the bedding personally and saw CY trying to hang herself when he opened the door.

What I did so far is just really brief so I think I can stop here. :)
