Just chiming in to say that I still get a little teary every now and then when I think of the ending, and I've even been known to watch the ending alone when I'm looking for a little bit of peace. Agree with everything you wrote in your review!
Just finished rewatching this series for the first time and I think I liked it even more than my first watch. Tears were shed. Still moved by the quiet, sweet ending.
I started watching this, but the first episode seems verrrrrrry transphobic. Have I misunderstood something or…
I also found that scene to be transphobic and generally uncomfortable. And some missed opportunities to explore some gender nuances. Not really what this is about tho, the romance
It's only on my second watch of what I now confirm is my favorite drama ever that I realized that the ending credits…
The second to last scene in the credits is the last scene from the drama, where ming lan and ting ye are standing outside of the rebuilt gu ancestor hall. Does anyone know what the the last scene in the credits is? It looks like a person walking with a cow? Not sure I can tell what it is or what it means.
It's only on my second watch of what I now confirm is my favorite drama ever that I realized that the ending credits are scenes from the drama. I have a question, marked as spoiler below.
I just can't hate WY.. honestly, if you're told your whole family and the person you love and want to marry will…
Couldn't agree more. They did my mans WY wrong. I wonder if they are intentionally trying to make him seem more tragic by showing both the real effort he put in to getting out/away from the marriage and him getting hate from QH's pple. It's like painting him as an upstanding guy while also positioning him as a villain--bit of a contradiction. The drama world does its thing. He didn't deserve the slap or the beatdown tho.
I read this comment before starting the drama and thought, it can't be that bad right? Oh I was wrong. He is always…
The scene that really did me in was when he was fixing the plumbing in the overcoat, had a good cackle at that one. An endorsement deal seems to make the most sense, but I havent seen them try to make a big deal out of the coat brand(s) or anything. Seems like such a weird styling choice.
That's what's weird to me. It's only yuan shuai that's constantly in the overcoat in the actual drama, so does everyone else just handle the cold better than him? Lol
