Zhu Ya Wen was one of my favorite actors for many years. He has great acting skills. If you like historical drama, watch his Ming Dynasty. I started to follow him after Across the Ocean to See You. Nothing outstanding but I loved it. Great review! Thanks!
I am at episode 14 and just trying to decide whether to keep going because Zhen Zhu's character is quite annoying.…
Totally agree with you. If not because I tried to watch as many Chinese historical dramas as possible, I wouldn't have watched this one. It's ... tormenting, to say the least :)
Heheh - the idea that Zheng is going to be able to woo Amita is beyond absurd! This is a classic example of the…
hahaha! I do believe Amita would eventually fall for Ping An. He's actually quite cute. I don't know what gives him that kind of confidence, that he could fascinate any women if he wants to. That confidence alone is quite cute.
If queen dongxia is not the third man, then Marquis give the wrong info to zhuang Zhi xing, right? Why did he…
i think zhi xing lies to zang hai about the 3rd person. duke's face looks bewilder when zang hai mentions the queen as the 3rd person, then he laughs and says, "good son". to me, he means, good son for not telling the truth to the enemy".
i suspect the emperor because (1) the masked man has to be someone recognizable by many people, therefore he needs to be masked. (2) the masked man is very powerful -- he could command all these sifu's for zhang hai and create an environment to train him. he could appear anywhere anytime he wants. who else has this type of power? (3) indeed, like what @anastasiawun says, the 3rd person could be the emperor. that's the twist. zhang hai has been calling him 恩公 (benefactor), what if it turns out that he's also the culprit? what an irony.
Great review! Thanks!
