escapism

Q abt the J-drama version ending and this adaptation.

There are some 2022 dramas listed here.

Thank you.

Thanks, definitely going to watch this :)

Waiting to start this, anyone know which episode he will start actively pursuing her? Don't want to be stuck while she's in her unrequited phase.

Lol, i feel sorry for him now. Having her in proximity would drive a person to drink, I imagine he would rather be in battle.

Ok, thanks, I'm relieved. It didn't make sense as he knew the Xue family's treachery.

I'm sorry for the swearing but the The emperor is a f-ing idiot. Somebody please tell me he actually has a plan and isn't just being led around by his dick. (Episode 28)

May I ask, does it involve going back into the past again, or is everything now firmly in the present?

Haven't started this yet, I hope it's not going to be like Destined with You, where the past life / events are unnecessary and end up adding little value to the story.

4 solid episodes of passive brooding, Mount Fagradalsfjall volcano will erupt while this plot remains dormant 🙃

Thanks!

Wow, ok. Do you know if he is friend or foe?
Thanks!

Can anyone who read the source material tell me who or what is Lee Bo Gyeom?

Nooooooooooooo, how is it only one episode, and one that has no plot progression at all. This is so dragged out, it's making the Hobbit Trilogy look abridged!

Ah ok, thanks for the heads up!

Can anyone who's up to date tell me if it looks like Ryu Shi Oh's character will get a redemtive arc? Asking because 1. he's hot 🤣 and 2. it seems like they trying to soften our impression of him in ep. 10-11 abut maybe just a misdirect.

This drama was never going to blow your mind, but it had the potential to be a fun and sweet guilty pleasure but they've messed up the pacing, and written the female characters really badly. Shu Yi is supposedly in love with him now yet she keeps playing childish games. Shi Yue is bold, and it's interesting to see her be the pursuer, she's not overly aggressive but as someone previously pointed out, they appear to have very little in common. She keeps trying to like what he likes, proving his point that she's too young for him. Ruo Shan is a joke, I'm tired of writers equating independance with inability to commit. They are two separate things and RS is the later eventhough she's trying to convey the first. And for ppl in the media, communication seems to be their weakest link.
There's a high chance I'm going to forget this drama before the next episode even airs, and let's face it, nothing of significance is going to happen. With the way they're draging it out, everything will only happen in the last 3 episodes.

Thanks. I see the scheming widow stereotype is well and alive in this one 😅

Ah ok, now it makes sense. Thanks.
I really can't keep up with the character connections 🙃
