ML is so fine and the romance is steamy. FL is beautiful and does the role well (although I did hate the Lu Zhao character for being so pathetic). The evil SFL was so gorgeous. The 9th Uncle was great too.
After Till the End of the Moon I vowed not to watch the ML going through any more torture but here we are again! Overall production values are superb, lots of interesting side characters...
I like Kim Go Eun a lot, she is charming and has this really sweet and adorable presence, but I have to say this character type of her is a bit annoying especially after watching her latest drama You And Everything Else ( a person who tries too hard and can never say no and is a little pathetic). I really hope she plays some different roles in the future. That said I really liked her and the SML Seo Kang Jun (who is aboslutely gorgeous here). The ML has zero expressions, a flat tone, and a terrible wig that makes him look like a creepy guy. There is not a single reason (so far) for her to like him or for the other beautiful girl to obssess over him (him being super smart would just make him a nerd). I guess they are trying to show someone with a disorder of some kind but it is too unappealing. Glad this kind of male lead (cold, dead eyes, "mean or coded as autistic guy") is no longer popular.
The actors are so gorgeous and yet the story itself was boring to the point where even though I kept thinking (SHE IS SO PRETTY) I just skipped to the secondary characters.. Best part was Krystal and her cutie and the villain acted really well.
When his spirit dragon finallys starts shipping them!!! Such a beautiful couple with insane chemistry and lots of naughty moments. Love in the Clouds really the best xianxia drama of this year. I generally dislike some of the tropes cliches - but the were done well with twists or not extended too long so it was a great ride. The moment when 27 {...} and the actress Lu Yu Xiao acting is so phenomenal when crying I feel like crying with her.
So tired of the political intrigue, this could have been a much better drama if they did not have the ML doing the most trope filled "find out who betrayed and killed my family" quest we have seen 100x times. Then in what is a comedic, light-hearted drama they create this annoying angtsy crap. Last 12 or so episodes were such a slow slog.
The premise was interesting but the first two episodes were so choppy and either melodramatic or unbelievable. At this point we saw the villain, who seems at the top or near the top of the gang to be doing so much basic grunt work? Unrealistic.
Wasn't her Netflix debut in Alchemy of Souls? I love that she has a different role here but she does amazing in whatever she does even if the drama story is just okay.
Knowing nothing about all the other shows or novels, I really like this and how it fast paced, a different story from the usual drama tropes, and while Gong Jun is stiff and expressionless there are so many other great characters (Su Changhe for example is wonderful) that his blank slate can be overlooked. Sometimes they introduce an intriguing character only to kill them in the episode.
I also appreciate just the quality of the set, costumes, and cinematagrophy - really gorgeous visually.
I love the idea of her pretending to be the older brother's widow and Ding Yuxi is usually great. But there have been too many dramas recently with the same tropes of military loss/theft of taxes/soldiers sacrificed by bad guys. Please find less cliche plots (these have all been overdone: the refugee crisis, the corrupt politician mastermind, palace intrigue, evil emperor who kills his loyal subjects, etc, etc).
This guy is so hot you should see the comments women post on Instagram about him. He is a thirst trap.
Yikes boy, you got some internal issues to deal with. You are so attracted to this man, you have to call him effeminate when he's such a muscular handsome guy. Like the call is coming from inside your house. Its okay to be bi or gay and be attracted to men without referring to them as women.
