Yes!!! Well, I have watched a few Xianxia before but this is my first Wuxia. Am I qualified? xDDD
I'll admit, I'm on episode 14 and I'm still a bit confused, but I think that's normal because the whole plot hasn't even been revealed yet. In my opinion WoH is perfect for people who are beginning to watch Wuxia because it isn't too long of a drama and each episode is exciting (and addictive lol). The main plot is very easy to understand, and many things are hinted even in the first episode.
I feel like the most confusing part is just trying to remember all the character names/positions and how each character is connected (but that comes with practice, and as you keep watching the show).
Also, the term "ghost" is a little confusing because the people in ghost valley aren't REAL ghosts and yet they keep referring to themselves as people who have "shed their human skin" and "have become ghosts." But, I'm pretty sure that's all figurative since this is a wuxia drama and not a xianxia drama. I think they're just referring more to how they've all left their old lives behind.
Anyway, I just wanna end by saying I'm really enjoying watching WoH as my first wuxia drama. I find the characters and the storyline fascinating, and the visuals and poetry and everything else is literally SO good. I would definitely recommend it for people new to the genre.
i finally caught up, but now one week until it ends for subs
I started watching it a few days ago. I promised myself I'd wait until at least 30 episodes were released so I could start binging. But, I may have underestimated myself because I'm already on episode 14 and I still have to wait until next Wednesday (I think) for the last episode. I literally suck at pacing myself LMAO
I just started this drama yesterday so I'd be able to binge it!!! It's so good :)))) do you know what day next…
Thank you!!! Man, I gotta space out my episode watching evenly. I'm on episode 8 right now and I want to be in the 30s by next Wednesday. Can't watch too many at once hehe ;)))

Lolll I watched the Untamed in 2019 and that's what got me hooked. Then I started watching thai BL dramas last year around September and MAN have I fallen so much further down the rabbit hole...

Oh nevermind, I looked up their ages and when they filmed this one of the main actors was 23. I wouldn't call that old!!
