YOUKU has an absolutely bad wrong translation of a small part In episode 23 where the Crown Prince goes to see…
Ummm. He does not know who Lu Wenxi is .. At least that's what comes across towards the end when he REALLY puts 2+2 together
But thanks so much for the correction. YESSS. The entire mood and meaning changes if the translation changes.
It's been so frustrating to not FEEL the translation .. so much was left out .. especially all the letter / plaques / memorials that were shown on screen .. All the beauty of the poetry quoted.
I am going to use my google translate for the blanks on the soundtrack for many of the dialogues.
I finally made it to the last two episodes. I don't understand what is going on, at all.Who are these "enemies"?…
ROFL!!
Yes it's DENSE .. between the lines .. and intoxicatingly absorbing because of that .. I got some .. I muddled through some .. I had a HIGH so good that I am jumping right back in for a redo.
Because season 1 ended right before COVID so it took time longer than usual
I LOVED the subtle flirty friendship Fan Xian has with Female 9th master - Dou Dou; the affectionate warmth and kindness he feels towards the Spy Si Lili and of course his total enthralment of FL.
It gave his character a depth and roundedness that was far more enjoyable and juicy than if he was left at : straight laced uncomplicated un-swayed guy.
Just me feeling.
So of course it's not romance focused but it adds that flavour and tension that only a female character entwined with the main role can inject.
However unlike Arthdal Chronicles that had such a STRONG female presence and aura.. An equal strength and power mover woman (women) JOL focused solely on men as the power brokers. Not that it's not as enjoyable.. But often u found myself longing for the solid female foil entangled with the ML.
TTEOTM and LLTG pulled that off SO WELL.
Anyway I am yet to start JOL2. Holding off to decrease the gap from JOL 3 release π€£π€£π€£π€£
ENJOY!

I discovered the blog AFTER I wrapped the 60 eps .. and it made the experience even more enriched.
But it's not for everyone for sure.
I had cortisol screaming through my veins all of 60 eps
Am still in its thrall
I am ready to launch again .. It's THAT engaging and enticing .,,60 eps .. Bring it on again .. Will low chew my way though it now
I'll need a drip to replenish my salts - Binged madly.
Sleepless nights..

Cool.
Will keep in mind.
SST I was anyway planning to watch.
Gimme a hint : is there even a whisper of chemistry / romance between ZRY and the FL?
Also proof is in the pudding - look at the number of silent likes you got :O
