The drama has 50 episodes. It's not even half of it. Give it some time. I am sure we will see development in the…
I have watched a fair few of 50 and over episode dramas. Even for this length drama, I still feel like the relationships are moving very slowly. Especially in relation to the progress that you see in the Nine beads story line. I am really rooting for a particular pairing, so I would like to see it start heading there.
I don't mind the investigations/divine bead stuff, but I really wish more was happening with these relationships. 18 ep. in and she still just has a crush on Zhao Lan Zhi and she is still treating our adorable Mu Le as a servant. I really hope something happens soon, even if it between her and Zhao Lan Zhi. It feels like the relationships are still in the same place they have been. She is learning to trust ML a little more, but she still wants him to call her Master/Miss. She is still enamored but at the same time annoyed with the rule following cautious ZLZ. I keep looking forward to the next episodes, but feel like hardly anything new happened after them.
Hmm I have a feeling they will be siblings in this version, too... if they aren't, that means the main twist of…
It is hard to say. Is Tvn a station that plays edgier dramas? If it is playing prime time on a reg channel, I think they will go with non-biological siblings... something like, The father may have put one of them on the family register but in reality they were not biological siblings... There is an angel in his drawing, is this something from the original version?

Oh No. I watched episode 10, but stopped right after she told him she knew she wasn't the cop's real sister. I was so traumatized thinking they might be siblings, I forgot to go back and watch the last 7 minutes.
I doubt there is any way they're siblings at this point.. episode 10 sealed it for me...I'm glad at least, because…
Episode 10 is the episode that made me start thinking they were siblings. I came over here to see if they were siblings in the original? I am hoping they are not....

wait. What did I miss? I don't remember them sleeping together. I know they kissed, but did she leave right after? Then she came in while he was sleeping, but that was in the morning.
I really enjoyed it, despite some of the very cheesy monsters and special effects. The actors were great. The music was on point. Great ending. This is listed as Season 1. Anyone know if there is a season 2 happening? If it is , crossing my fingers that all the lead actors reprise their roles.
I am watching on On Demand Korea, but there are no subs and I do not understand enough Korean to totally know what is going on.
In Episode 7: Can someone tell me what he said the pissed her off after the kiss and then at the interview? why he poured the wine on the table? what did he say to his sister have the wine incident? What did they say right before the kiss at the end of the episode? Did they officially break up to start secretly dating for real?
with they recent shutdown of Dramafever, I am low on dramas. I just put this one on to try it... in the opening credits I started thinking why do I know that guy.... OOOOO it is Hao Mei from Love O2O. Plus Janice Wu who I loved from My Amazing Boyfriend. Hoping it is good. I really want to like it, since I like both of the main actors from other things.
I am sure I am not the only one that is sad about losing Dramafever so abruptly. I really needed something cute to watch. Thankfully this drama has started to grow on me. I am also starting to notice the improvement in the Viki originals too. I have thought each one was a little better than the one before it. Hopefully that trend continues.
Chinese dramas really do have the best cinematography. Yang Mi is pretty much the Goddess of everything. .... I adored The Eternal but special effects being what they were, I can see how it would not appeal to everything. The Eternal Love was the first role I ever saw Xing Zhao Lin in, so maybe that is why my opinion differs, but TEL is def my favorite of his roles. I was so in love with him after watching that. Princess Agent second, then ICHY last. I don't know Nikki Wu, but Dylan Wang is my favorite thing from MG, so I can't agree on that one. I thought DW's newness worked for that character. Of course, the only other version of that I have seen is the Kdrama BOF with Lee Min Ho, so his portrayal of that character is the only one I have to compare DW to. The role I wish they had taken more time cast was the Huaze Lei character.
It has stayed pretty light and positive despite the medical issue. I am a little afraid it will become more sad/serious toward the end, so I put it on hold, for now.
On Acting: I think a blanket statement that all the acting is "amaturish" is a bit harsh. To a degree I will agree about everyone except: the Dao Ming Si character. The actor playing DMS was always able to draw me into his emotions, no matter how silly or dramatic the situation was. As much as I liked the portrayal of DMS, I equally disliked the portrayal of Huaze Lei. The HL character was so important to the story, I wish they had cast that role differently ... I have previously only watched the Korean Boys Over Flowers version of this story, so that may come into play here. On The Dubbing: I have seen so much worse, I didn't even notice this one was dubbed tbh. On the Length: I am pretty used to long dramas. This one dragged a bit toward the end. It felt like they were repeating the same set backs in the relationship over again. I don't remember if it was the same in the Korean BOF, it has bee too long since I watched it. On Kissing: I don't think there was a lot of chemistry between the leads, in general. I thought the lead actress was adorable and funny and as far as her portrayal of Shan Ci character, I didn't hate it. However, I think the lack of chemistry was on her side. I also didn't sense any chemistry between her and Huaze Lei either. The Fighting and Product Placement: I just have to say that I love product placement in general, as a way to get in advertising without having to watch an annoying commercial with annoying music at a loud volume. I usually prefer to watch comedy, so the funny product placements are comical to me. Maybe if I watched more Chinese dramas it would bother me, but so far I am ok with it.
For now I only like seo Kang Joon performance! The premise wasn’t bad but too much time in flash black can discourage…
Agree. In general, I dislike long flashbacks. I am usually much happier when the drama dedicates no more than half an episode to back story/"flashback". Later, they can always thrown in a couple minutes or two long flash backs to add info, when needed. I have also been ok when dramas have given a short flash back at the beginning of every episode. When the "flash back is several episodes long, I want to fast forward. I know someone will bring this up.... but obviously dramas like the reply series are their own thing. The main story is happening in the past, so I feel like the "present day" stuff if more like a flash forward, than the rest being a long flashback.

Is there anywhere safe we can watch this now?
