I finished watching all 40 eps on 1x. Watched it for LYX with this drama being my 7th with her, and I would say this was probably her weakest role so far out of the ones I've seen.
It was ok for the most parts but did get boring for some bits. I found both leads characterisations very bland and one dimensional which restricted the leads acting. The romance development was also poor and not because of the love triangle, but because the drama didn't really focus on it at all for the first 30 episodes. Then it suddenly shifted to romance for a few episodes without a proper build up, then ignored it again for the rest of the drama. (I still don't know why both leads even love each other). I actually thought the 2nd ML was fine, so I'm surprised he's hated on so much in the comments.
The good things are there's no annoying characters and some parts of the political cases are interesting. Though as others have said, the power struggle arc near the end was quite ridiculous.
Watchable if you're a huge fan of the leads, but just skip if you're here for the romance.
because this drama has not yet passed the review and obtained the distribution license to air so once they have…
There are dramas listed without a license like Genius Girlfriend so I don't think it's related to licensing.
Dubbing is the last step after obtaining the license so they also need to do that before the drama can air. But yes, we need reservations up to convince iqiyi to air it sooner!
Well bad news. Iqiyi didn't even bother listing wimtm on their list of 2026-2027 drama posters. https://weibo.com/1731986465/5289747728827569 So unlikely it will be released in summer. Hopefully it won't be later than end of this year...
I just watched the trailer. For those that have read the novel...from when she gives up and says she'll stop pursuing…
Iirc they got together pretty fast. Probably a few months of Yun Li chasing? Or are you referring to the break up and how long they took to see each other again.
What is happening even! 😭 another wedding of nanyi n not with xqs? The novel was so tragic in the first place…
From what I gathered, she seems to be marrying a Qi lord. There was a clip of Nan Yi's stand in wearing the wedding dress and walking next to Wanyan, with XQS following shortly after to start talking to Wanyan.
Then there was another clip of XQS death staring at someone which I assume is the to be husband. Perhaps it's a spy mission or testing XQS's loyalty.
are there any recent reuters of xie que shan and nan yi together? i've been waiting to see them in one frame again..…
All the outdoor scenes got removed from the TG apparently. Maybe saving it for later... You can have this from today in the mean time http://xhslink.com/o/A5oaO6M397i
Just saw this https://x.com/jaxohhiizz/status/2043925192658039227This is a Patrick fan who's been buying all the…
Oh maybe you are right! I just assumed she was a Patrick fan since she was posting about his other drama A Ming Dynasty Adventure as well. She's probably a fan of both then. Haha true we'll remain spoiler free. I only like watching reuters because sometimes it gets cut from the actual drama and it's also interesting watching it from another angle without all the editing.
Just realised, they still haven't shot the first scene of nanyi n XQS meet in the novel😕 r they going to shoot…
Just saw this https://x.com/jaxohhiizz/status/2043925192658039227 This is a Patrick fan who's been buying all the TGs. I did see someone post a recent TG saying they plan to shoot the lantern festival scene on the 30th of April so let's see if that happens.
R u sure that's post XQS nanyi? Becos she looks so prim n proper for being post XQS nanyi, I mean I imagined her…
Mainly meant XQS's influence on Nan Yi to actually start caring and having the courage to fight for what's right. The old happy and innocent Nan Yi would just be a bystander!
It seems like they changed the second half of the drama quite a bit from the novel and this scene is in the later episodes. Description is Nan Yi meeting the guards of the Bingzhu Division. It looks like she shouted 'Impossible' and went running after something (to look for xqs?)
Lu Yuxiao just uploaded a clip of her and Lin Yi to Douyin, so it's coming soon! We'll probably get a more precise date on the 20th of this month at the iQiyi conference, since this was one of the dramas they listed for presentation.
It'll probably be during the summer school holidays, so July or August. She needs to wrap up filming DWTT first which is expected to finish early June before she has the time to do the dubbing and start filming the promos for this.
Why not? If trump at 85 yrs can be aware of what he is doing, then she is jst 84 yrs. We had a 95 yrs old lady…
Not sure if I would consider Trump knowing what he's doing right now... Or maybe he does, but that's irrelevant. But what I meant was understanding the memes/jokes behind these short videos. Because even I sometimes fail to understand the references since they're too abstract. Not trying to insult her by any means by saying she's too old. Instead, I'm impressed that she's still active.
Sorry if it was phrased poorly so it was easy to misunderstand. I edited the comment to clarify what I meant.
