Seriously, how did LTY make it in the real world. She is so ditsy. But her calming quality with SJ is cute as…
She probably would have been just a normal person in the modern world, but I think the way she acts currently in the cultivation world is quite realistic. Even normal people in modern world, when they get to a country they arenât familiar with are quite clueless, talk more about being randomly transported to an ancient cultivation world to serve a grandmaster that kills people over mere annoyance. She is relatable asf imo, and her lack of interest in anything is what is keeping her alive at this point.
This is my first Arthur Chen drama, and I quite like his acting style. He plays the cold, arrogant male lead to perfectionâŠlike it has never occurred to him a day in his life that he is not actually perfect. And his voice is simply amazing too. I started watching âLighter and Princessâ where he plays a similar cold and arrogant role as a buffer while I wait for new episodes from this drama. And somehow, he looks more handsome in modern dramas, which is rare for Cdrama actors imo. I guess this drama will have a modern arc, so I canât wait to see him there.
I feel like him constantly asking her if she wants to kill him under the truth spell and hearing her say âNoâ is probably a source of consolation for him, considering the fact that those vile immortal sect members didnât even spare the dead bodies of his clansmen.
The Fl is so hilarious. I love her so much. ML: after finally defeating those evil sect masters asks her...âso what are your thoughts about this? â.
FL: âyour waist is so slim, ⊠you must have been starved into this shapeâ. Lmao.
I would be thinking the same at that moment dear. What do the deaths of those evil ass cultivators have to do with her, as long as the ML is still the most powerful.
Seems like immortal sect being utterly despicable is the norm now in Cdramas. In this case, both immortal sect and demon realm are bottom of the barrel evil. I canât wait for the male lead to take revenge on all of them.
Iâm really enjoying this drama. Imagine waking up one morning and you find yourself in the cultivation world, bruhh. She is so funny and realistic. Poor girl is just trying to stay alive, serve the main boss, enjoy herself and slack off. Canât wait for more episodes!
I come to watch this drama because Coroners Diary, too. Is it really worth to watch? And I want to know, has it…
Yes, itâs worth the watch imo. There are no outright comedic characters per se but there are lots of light hearted moments, and the second couple are very adorable too.
8.7 is kinda crazy considering people HATED it when it first dropped
The main couple have insane chemistry. Drama watchers will forgive anything if the romance is hitting. The ratings actually dropped from 8.8 to 8.7..I guess because the couple are having some misunderstanding now. When they reconcile and she starts taking revenge on her brother, the ratings will shoot back up.
After watching Coronerâs diary, I was looking for a similar drama and stumbled upon this one. I wasnât expecting much starting it, but imagine my surprise when I found out what a gem this drama is. Itâs one of those dramas where you go in not knowing what to expect but you are blown away by the thoughtfulness that went into the script. It may not be as romance heavy as the coronerâs diary, but it has the superior script imo. I donât even think the romance is lacking, the couple had a very calm and mature chemistry, and I loved all their scenes together, especially because it was quite realistic and it didnât interfere unnecessarily with the plot.
The female lead is one of the cutest fls Iâve had the pleasure to view on screen. She is very smart and resourceful, but naive, which is unfortunately because she has been shunned and looked down on, all her life for being a coronerâs daughter. But this experience doesnât make her bitter, instead she just took it in her stride and remained so optimistic, ambitious, and above all, very kind and sweet. Itâs easy to see why ML adores her.
The Male lead is the star of this show imo. He doesnât have the classical idol actor looks, but as the show went on, his intelligence, charisma, and aura would make it impossible for you to imagine anyone else playing Prince An. He is one of the smartest cdrama MLs Iâve seen, the way he pieces seemingly unrelated clues together is awe inspiring and he is great at plotting too, I completely understood why everyone respected and feared him. Whatâs unique about him is that, he is not the typical cold male lead. On the contrary, the way he carries himself shows the prestige and aura of his title, yet he is very upright, down to earth and fair to everyone. With the fl, he was not a simp, but he was not overbearing either. Even before he fell in love with her, he genuinely respected and appreciated her talents, and he was so accommodating to her from the first day they met. When he realised he was in love with her, he acted on it without hesitation. There was no unnecessary misunderstanding, love triangles or the likes, just a wholesome and sweet couple that mutually trusted, loved and respected each other.
Also, one good trait of a great show is how well fleshed out the supporting characters are. In this drama, although the ML is definitely the brains, the supporting characters are equally smart, and the villains definitely gave the ML a run for his money in the battle fields of wits. I also adored the relationship between the second couple, they were really sweet. And one of the best parts of the show is the utterly adorable relationship between the ML and his elder brother, the sweetest brotherhood Iâve seen on screen.
The only con of the drama is that the last episode was quite rushed, but since the drama ended well and everything was resolved, I donât mind it so much. Anyways, if you are in the mood for a cdrama with a completely engaging plot encompassing brotherhood, friendship, betrayal, political intrigue, romance, etc, you canât go wrong with this one.
Episode 24 teaser..ugh Chu Zhao is like a damn cockroach that wonât die. I have no heart to watch their prolonged misunderstanding. Iâll wait till it has been resolved then binge everything.
In the novel, after the rebirth He Yan is basically described as soft and delicate, like white jade, fragrant…
The drama and the novel have different plots in this instance. In the novel, He Yan was reborn into the body of another young woman, so that description makes sense since itâs another female body.
But in the drama, no such rebirth took place. Instead, He Yan has lived as a man all her life and is a seasoned general too.
