If you like him then you should watch Maiden Holmes where he plays the ML. Another well-made drama and he is super charismatic there. Maybe you’ve already watched it. I became his fan after I watched that one. I like ZLH but I don’t think his charisma outshines DFQC in this drama.

I think prob bc they both seem to have the same energy and sense of humor. That’s probably what he meant by it. Or he was being sarcastic. Lol

😂😂 ME TOO!!

My fave is 18. That episode did a lot to explain DFQC, and also the decision involving wanting to open up and love, and his future decision about the type of person/ruler/brother he wants to be, and what sacrifices he should make and are worth making. It also gives rational background to all his future decision making and it’s not him being just swayed by love for Orchid. As for Orchid, it showed her the vulnerable DFQC and how much love and protection he needs, why he became who he became and her desire to protect him. In the past flashback with CH she said everyone deserves to be protected, even if they are strong. This episode shows that and it could have been the opening Orchid needed to see to start to love and care for DFQC.

I agree, I was just commenting that if they were to make a season 2 there is enough material there that’s all :)

Oh wow, really? It’s the same writer? I loved the Legends!

Really? What was lltg’s rating? I agree. I stopped at Ep 32. It dragged too much for me. Maybe one day I’ll restart but only after I rewatch this one a few more times :)

I am a bit mad at Jieli about that

I think DFQC knows too, and also I think Orchid mentioned to him in the earlier episode when they were living in Arbiter Hall.

I know that’s what the assistant said in Ep 30, I’m just wondering if it’s the truth or if there is more to the story

I’m obsessed with coming back here and reading the posts. 😱 I need to stop 😂 But you know a drama is amazing when you have people writing essays about the characters and the details in the story and theorizing about the ending. 😂👏🏻👍🏼❤️

Remember back in Ep 5 or 6, he does feel her fear (when she had that nightmare) and commented that he hadn’t felt that feeling (fear) in a long time and snickered? He also mentioned that being the strongest one doesn’t need to feel fear. So I don’t think it’s that he doesn’t feel it, I think fear is one of the feelings he has learned to overcome strongly and likely doesn’t impact him as much. It also doesn’t externalize like crying (with tears) which flows but he doesn’t necessarily react to being internally sad whenever she cries, he just gets annoyed bc he is showing tears. So I don’t think that he doesn’t feel her fear, it just doesn’t bother him as much bc in his mind he is the strongest in the 3 realms.

😂😂 Don’t you just love their chaotic energy? I would LOVE to see them as hosts/regulars of a variety show. Or at least let’s have another drama with them.

Yes, and CH always chose duty over her. I don’t think DFQC will choose duty over her, I think he will choose to save both. But to your point, it’s this type of thought-out writing that I enjoy in this drama and it gives the characters and story more depth.

Yes~ isn’t it amazing how she wins you over. I think I first saw her in I’ve Fallen For You and was annoyed at first but she really grew on me and I found her to be really adorable. Especially when I saw that that’s how she is in real life too. Lol~ But even though she can be cute hee serious scenes are really good and well-acted so I like and respect her.

I agree. Of course, I don’t want to speak negatively about LLTG for all the people who love it but I didn’t finish it because there were a number of characters who were just not great for me. Also. It was so slow moving and all of the unnecessary side characters really slowed the plot execution I thought. The costume and acting by Leo Wu was great but I agree with you that putting aside all of the fandom this drama LBFAD is just perfectly executed. It is so well-paced, the story advanced without unnecessary filler and plot devices and the acting is superb. Add to that the phenomenal soundtrack (I don’t even remember the music from LLTG), the beautiful costumes and set and I just have to say to me this is my favorite drama of 2022. Both Chinese and Korean drama combined. Again, just my personal opinion. I don’t think I’ve been this obsessed with a drama in a super long time.

17-18 did me in. But26 is also pretty awesome. But so is 15… they’re all amazing!

Wait, so are you suggesting the wedding is a ruse and DFQC will use that opportunity to team up with CH to overthrow the emperor so the two nations can have peace without bloodshed? I like it. That would mean Orchid doesn’t really marry CH.

There are a lot of fan made compilations out there so I wouldn’t put much stock in it. I don’t think the ending will be sad. I think it will be a satisfying one. The writers have been very good so far in their storytelling and execution. A sad ending would be really inconsistent and not make much sense with the story/plot and characters that they have built up to this point. So I don’t think a SE will happen.

Omg right? I had the same thought too! That would have been a bit fun to watch
