Got some sleep, did some other things, came back to this series... The first part of episode 4 is subbed! Now, patience, patience, patience.

Once again they fail to deliver, when will they understand that everyone except Kao and Phu should just be ignored!?

Joking aside, I really looked forward to this series but the writing and acting is horrible (uneven, uninvested and underwhelming)—I hope the writer and actors will get more experience and better parts in the future. I get that the show is based on a novel or similar, but please just pick the parts that make sense to include in a series of this format...

Ahhhh! I have been wanting to see this series for awhile now—finally the time has come! Three episodes in the subs stop, oh dear, now I have to prove that patience is virtue... Regardless, I must say this series is worth the hype.

I want to like this series, but it really does not flow well. I will see it to the end, but hopefully it will get somewhere before that.

This is JUST what I need. I really hope it stays light throughout! (Please, give me at least one series without all the melodrama.)

Oh, I was not aware this was coming!

Usually I can’t stand blatant product placements like this, but I’ll make an exception for this show! If only the main show could be as sweet...

A bit of stiff acting, but oh so sweet!

It started cute, now it is a mess. I hope it gets back on track!

People act bad, “but it’s okay,” the series say, “because they have reasons.” Sigh.

Ooh, I have high hopes for this one! Hopefully there will not be much drama. I need something sweet and innocent without many implications right now.

It took me a while to finally watch the last episodes. Whatever thoughts I have about the series, I’ll just say that it is important that these series are made and shown in Mainland China. We will get to see more varied shows later... I hope.

I will remember the sweet moments, just as with Addicted and all the others.

There are now subtitles for episodes 14, 17–18 and 20–24 as well. So only four are missing subs currently... hopefully we will get them translated soon!

I guess we will have to see how they connect... At least Ji-han is a “recurring” character, but is it the same character in the same world or something else?

Quite curious about this one. I liked Discipline, and I guess this one will be something else. Time will tell.

Episode 6 is now fully subbed in English.

Somewhat interesting at first, but now the latest episodes bring in the plot devices with no logic nor reason. Hopefully they end these storylines quickly.

A bit shallow, some too over-the-top characters, bad translation, etc. but it is a short one so I can manage. Hopefully it will have its sweet moments.

One of my fav wuxia series, I really hope this coming season will make the first one justice!

I have watched the first season three times by now and I can almost sing the ending theme even though I do not know Chinese...

I hate this kind of plots. Either you talk things out or you leave each other completely. Simple. In real life I say, leave things like this to melodramas, but now I feel inclined to say, leave these things altogether!

And do people really enjoy watching melodrama this much? I dislike how telenobelas “need” to have all these elements—please, producers, get rid of the mould! This show could have been a fresh wind to Pinoy soaps, it surely had/has the elements. I’m afraid I will need to put this series in the big pile of shows not having utilised their potential.

I guess (hope) this series will have a happy ending, but I am unsure if I can muster the energy to be part of the journey to the end.
