What the what? The first thing off the bat talking about duel (or is it dual) cultivation and showing a girl getting it whether she wants it or not while a shit-ton of guys are watching? WTF am I watching????
Thank you! 💐 I've learned so much and enjoyed every bit! The difference types of Chinese opera/theatre🎭 Similarities between Shakespeare and Chinese dramas with a touch of Greek chorus on the side 😉 The Willow Song! You are so talented! Beautiful song🥰 The symbolism in the music competition🎼 Comparing scenes to paintings. This section really got to me! The final scene of the drama (before I saw the afterwards) had me confused and in doubt as to whether he lived and whether or not they were able to be reunited. Beautifully explained. I could see that scene play out in my mind. Duke Su's fan! 🪭I so love this: "...resembles a dance with agile, geometric and energetic steps, with a "fatal sensuality" atmosphere..." And then that brought me to your 'It's a plum tree!' discussion on The Double page and now I feel so much better about the ending scene! https://kisskh.at/discussions/di-jia-qian-jin/129865-to-be-or-not-to-be-a-plum-tree-that-s-the-question And I just figured out the differences in our writing styles. You are Shakespeare! The role I play is the Greek chorus! Or the clown. Maybe the clown section of the Greek chorus? 🤡🤣
There is indeed a great loss in the English titles, because invariably, the original titles, besides being faithful…
🥹 So beautiful! I must ask what are you going to be watching next? I definitely need to come follow you so I can read more of your beautiful thoughts and opinions! 🥰
Yea - my “dramaland shades” were great and allowed be to put all logic aside to enjoy it. A bit melodramatic,…
Woah, I just watched some clips. You are so right! The hair is awful! And the makeup? 😲 They need to loosen up the hair and cut back on the makeup. And the lighting? I guess cause it's a xianxia drama? 🤔 Darn. Another swing and a miss for Liu Xue Yi then?
Dang, that is a huge plot hole isn't it? Now I want to know too! The ML said he had some hidden away right? Maybe…
In my imagination....the ML had the fortune hidden away the entire time, the poison does not kill him, he lives, they go on to have an immensely happy, and rich, life together! 🤑🤣
The Song dynasty was the first dynasty to used guns so yes, they had guns during the Ming dynasty. And if you’re…
🤣 Wait, she didn't even have it primed or lit! Not very threatening then. Ok, I have this gun to your head so back off. And could you wait about 5 minutes please while I put the little metal balls inside, stick the fuse into the little hole, light the fuse, cock the gun...ok now I'm ready to threaten you! 🤣
So, I myself am a woman, but this got really cringey by the end.Like... what the actual f!ck is all that emasculation…
Yes, the intensity of the eyes! 👀 He has that in spades doesn't he? I hadn't seen Meng Zhiyi in anything but the Untamed but decided to check out her other stuff. Royal Rumours is actually pretty funny. Not bad for a quick watch. I'm off to rewatch Blossom. Again 😉
the ending was meh... 😕 all of that craziness and that's how this series ended. ugh Where is the Pei Fortune?
Dang, that is a huge plot hole isn't it? Now I want to know too! The ML said he had some hidden away right? Maybe the evil concubine squirreled away the rest? I mean, the entire storyline was based on the evil eunuch and his evil (castrated?) henchmen and his evil (possibly castrated) son(s) who stole a shit-ton of money and...the emperor wanted it back? Yeah, the plot still lost me there 🤣
The Song dynasty was the first dynasty to used guns so yes, they had guns during the Ming dynasty. And if you’re…
If you watch Blossom there are a few scenes with that same type of gun. It takes like at least 5 minutes to prep to shoot it! Definitely faster to use a crossbow 😂

Hoping for an April release date! The BTS look amazing!
