Ok,those who says the story is getting slow..i mean,in what angel?because i am finding it very fast to catch up…
"The only thing i find it boring fl's weird way of showing emotionless towards ml"
I'm glad you mentioned that. Cause that's what most of us (at least for me) are having issues with. It's not really the story that's getting boring ( cause so much is happening) it's the MC relationship that's getting stale. It's coming off that way because like you said, the too unemotional state of the FL.
Personally, I've given up on their relationship for now. (Don't really care if they get together anymore) cause there's really nothing for me to root for. I completely understand FL stance. However, if they had atleast made her show a little bit of emotion, make us see/hear her thoughts, maybe it wouldn't be so unbalanced. And her reluctance would have been properly received.
We see, feel and hear every thoughts of the ML. But the FL is hiding hers from the viewers. Cdrama writers suck. Lol
I am pointing out my opinion on what I see so far. I am not a novel reader for this drama and I have no hate for…
THANK YOU!!! What you stated about their relationship is my BIGGEST CONCERN too. They wrote the FL character so emotionless and unfeeling, to the point of callousness (that scene when she pulled away from CXZ leaning on her to support his injury annoyed me) that it's making us viewers feel that she doesn't care for him at all. I get that they were trying to show us the old LMT who was a "strong" no nonsense woman (I applaud their efforts) but they just didn't translate it well on screen. They went too far with the portrayal, thus making her character not connect with the audience.
I completely understand her plight. She was lied and used, so I understand her reluctance. It makes perfect sense for her to not want anything to do with ML. And it makes sense for her to hide her feelings from ML. HOWEVER, it doesn't make sense for her character to hide her feelings from us the viewers. At no point do we really know what she's thinking for us to root for her and support her. In this, the writers did her character dirty. It's not fair because at every point, we all know what CXZ is thinking and feeling. We see, feel and hear his thoughts. But for LMT, nothing. Nada. Zilch. They took a beautiful character and turned her into a one dimensional cliché.
At this point, I'm even doubting that they belong together. I don't get the appeal anymore. At this point, to me, it feels like they will just get together just because the "plot" dictates it. We viewers don't get to really really see why they need to be together other than for plot purposes. Sigh...
Good luck! I am rewatching my fave scenes from Love and Destiny, that drama has an EPIC love story! The best in…
Oh yea, L&D is one of my favorite xianxia. I just love their love.
But it did kind of get a lil boring for me towards the last 10 or so episode. so I never finished. Lol even though I've rewatched like twice, I always stop right at ep 52😭 I need to finish it someday.
Another thing I really love about that show is the music that plays whenever they are in the heavenly court. (Like the emperor entering) It's just so majestic, beautiful and soothing to the soul!
Okay, I'm about to start rewatching from episode 1. These last few episodes have put me in a dark mood and made me skip scenes (FL scenes). So I want to rewatch from beginning and rekindle my love for the show. I want to understand again why I fell in love with the characters (esp FL) in the first place. Maybe by the time I catch up again, I will gain new insight into their characters that will help me understand them more, esp the FL being TOO unemotional.
Is female lead really the concubine of a bandit? Someone please give a spoiler about her background..I'm currently…
She's not. Lol I don't really want to tell you who she is cause it's the MAIN thing of the plot. (Maybe you might figure it out as you watch) It's quite the twist though😭
Lol don't want to spoil you that much cause it won't be the same when you find out...
Thank you so much for this link. Cause no matter how many ways I had searched kisskh, this show wasn't coming up. But your link took me straight to it.
I wonder why the show is not showing up for some of us🤔
What is Zhang Wan Yi's appeal? His acting skill?His visual (features)?His character in this drama?Is his acting…
For me, it's the acting. This is my first time watching this ML (didn't watch LYF) and I was drawn to his acting. I was intrigued by how he portrayed such a complex character so well. He did it so well that some viewers are forgetting that he actually is a bad guy in the beginning. Lol
This show made me went to check out his other dramas just to see him act. But unfortunately, this show and LYF are his first foray into romance drama. So I didn't watch any of his other shows. And I don't plan on watching LYF. So I'm looking forward to his upcoming historical drama.
Also, I think I was drawn to him cause his acting style reminds me so much of Jeremy Tsui. And I think Jeremy would have played this role perfectly too!
Intersting, cause it's quite easy for me to know what she's thinking and what she's feeling. I would be extremely…
Exactly my point. Hiding her emotions from other characters in the drama is perfectly normal and okay.
But Hiding it from the audience makes no sense. How are audience supposed to connect with the character if said audience don't even know what the character is thinking?? Makes no sense.
I don't really think it's the actress. Because I've watched other shows were her emotions were normal. I think it's the writing. It never gave her space to feel.
Intersting, cause it's quite easy for me to know what she's thinking and what she's feeling. I would be extremely…
Oh yes, that scene where she shook off his arm when he needed support, ANNOYED me real bad. Lol this is why I couldn't really care less about their relationship anymore.
Yes, you don't care for this person, we get it. But as a human, this person just helped you and is hurt. The least you could do is help them out on return.
Again, just goes to prove how callous they are making her character just to show she doesn't need anyone.
Intersting, cause it's quite easy for me to know what she's thinking and what she's feeling. I would be extremely…
Firstly, I did not attack you. I asked if you fully read my comment, seeing that you latched onto something I didn't say. You probably thought I was referring to emotions for romance, (that's why you brought up love-dovey) but I never said that
Secondly, good for you that you see her emotions. But I don't see any. I don't see any subtle emotions from in any way from her.
At the end of the day, the writers messed up the character.
Intersting, cause it's quite easy for me to know what she's thinking and what she's feeling. I would be extremely…
I never said I wanted her to be lovey-dovey. (Lol hope you REALLY read my comment instead of just responding just to respond).
There's a difference between being cheerful and just lacking any type of emotions. LIKE I SAID IN MY ORIGINAL COMMENT, I couldn't care less about her relationship with CXZ anymore. I want to care about LMT.
Like I stated, I want to be able to support my FL outside of romance. Who is LMT? What is she thinking? What are her feelings? For someone who's being through so much in life, where are her emotions?
Being unemotional does not make someone strong. Knowing how to properly show your emotions when needed is what makes a character "strong"
There are many other FLs out here that has been through WORSE than her, but yet we get to see them show emotions: Ren Ruyi (AJTL), Jiang Li (The Double), ShenLi (for months this woman was chained up and tortured so bad she lost her five senses)... We got to sympathize with these FLs because they showed us why.
So please don't tell me being "unemotional" is somehow being strong. The writers messed up the writing for LMT. That's just fact.
Now yall better not come at me for what I'm about to say, cause I know how much yall love to tussle at the slightest criticism of any FL characters... So here goes.
I have started skipping LMT scenes. Not because I don't like her character, but because her scenes are not exciting anymore. She's the FL, but as a viewer, I can't get a read on her. I'm not able to sympathize with her or experience an emotion with her because none is shown. She shows 3 facial expressions: indifference, wooden, and callous. Which aren't necessarily bad, but GIVE US SOMETHING ELSE. SHOW US AN EMOTION. GIVE US INNER THOUGHTS.
When I watch shows, I want to be able to connect with my FL outside of romance and so far this show has FAILED MISERABLY on that end.
At this point, I don't even care if she gets back with CXZ. (I'm starting to doubt they even belong together). The main thing I'm mad about is that I'm not even able to root for her as a person because there's nothing there for me to connect with. At no point do I as a viewer know what she's thinking or how she's feeling, for me to be able to care.
I really hate that it has come to this because I really loved LMT character in the beginning. Why did the writers make such a drastic change? Leave to cdrama writers to mess up a well written FL just to push out overused clichés... Okay, rant over
The writer should have added 5 minutes (or even less) screen time for LMT to have a monologue, worrying about…
Omg girllll...😩 This is my problem with the show too. Like I feel NO emotion from her at all. Nothing. She's just wooden and callous.
Truthfully, I don't care if CXZ chase her for the rest of their lives and she ignores him, (he deserves it a little. Lol) but LMT needed to SHOW US AN EMOTION. SHOW US YOUR THOUGHTS. GIVE US SOMETHING TO ROOT FOR. ANYTHING😭 That would have made it more exciting to watch. But as it stands now, I'm not even sure they belong together anymore...
Even though I like LMT character, the way the writers have written her is making me not able to connect with or sympathize with her. I know she's been through a lot, but for some reason, I'm just not able to connect with her on any emotional level.
Her scenes used to excite me, but not anymore. Her scenes has just become a drag to me, and I find myself skipping her scenes. 🫣...I feel so bad though cause that's my girl😭
UGGGHH... curse you cdrama writers... They really take the most amazing FL characters and reduce them to "strong, unemotional" clichés...
I'm glad you mentioned that. Cause that's what most of us (at least for me) are having issues with.

I will let yall know how it goes!!
Coupled with cdrama logic, he's unstoppable🤭
Lol don't want to spoil you that much cause it won't be the same when you find out...
Just rest easy knowing that she's not.
I wonder why the show is not showing up for some of us🤔

That's really not becoming of her
You are almost there💀
