For today's episode, I would like to leave here a poem that I love very much by Oscar Wilde. While watching, this poem echoed in my brain as YanHui fell in the last scene.
Each Man Kills The Thing He Loves- By Oscar Wilde
Yet each man kills the thing he loves by each let this be heard, some do it with a bitter look, some with a flattering word, the coward does it with a kiss, the brave man with a sword!
Some kill their love when they are young, and some when they are old; some strangle with the hands of lust, some with the hands of gold: the kindest use a knife, because the dead so soon grow cold.
Some love too little, some too long, some sell, and others buy; some do the deed with many tears, and some without a sigh: for each man kills the thing he loves,
SPOILERS BELOW:Tian Yao literally said, "Imma HIT IT AND LEAVE IT."I understand his actions. He was traumatised…
Yes, I totally agree with you. Okay, I understand that shock and outrage, pain and everything. But I don't like how TY is being so cruel to him when he has shown him total love, affection and kindness. The disappointment in that last look , I'm sure it hurts more because TY stabbed him so brutally, rather than his heart being stabbed. Not a stab wound, but a love wound will tear it apart. Would have known that if he had told her that he only needed HPS. He even gave it himself. But what did he do, ruthlessly put him to the sword. Poor YH. However, it was TY who needed to understand the pain of being betrayed by the person you love best. Come on, he could at least put it down gently. She just left him there. Someone evil might come along and do something to him, and he didn't even consider the possibility. It's just "sorry? I'm so mad at you, TY. I'm not happy with the changes in these parts of the book for now. But maybe I like this variation more in the coming chapters. I don't know.
Hi guys, sorry but I need another answer 😂 hope you be patient with me ❤️Can someone tell me why YH cant…
If I remember correctly, according to the novel, his master was suppressing his power. The reason for this was that his strength was too high due to the heart scale. (For example, the scene where he burns a tree in episode 14) He might not be able to control it. This would have caused HPS to be noticed. His master suppressed all his strength to prevent this. He prevented him from using HPS.
Although I have read the novel, I agree with you. This is always true if a novel is to be adapted as a drama or…
In fact, it would be cruel to think of it only for CDramas.
Wherever you go in the world, there will be a lot of people who don't like it when they adapt a novel as a TV show or movie. This is human nature.
A drama-film that is loved by the audience may be disappointing to the readers of the book.This is because it limits your imagination.
Because when you read a novel, you portray the characters completely in your own imagination. The conversations between the characters, their clothes, their actions....etc. But while watching it as a drama or a movie, we encounter characters, events and scenes that are very different from what we imagine while reading. This makes us nervous because your mind and heart tell you that what you read (that is, what you imagine) is real. But our eyes accept the reality of what we see. And this contradiction is frustrating.
Once you cross this threshold, you are faced with a completely vast realm. It becomes enjoyable while watching and reading separately. (In any case, you can have a small nervous breakdown when you see that the scenes that are annoying and should definitely not be cut. Especially in the side characters that are given more scenes in dramas compared to the novel.) But it's all part of it.You can overcome this by thinking like this; It's a different version of a book I love.
Hope ppl who come here and drop a "tHeY rUiNeD mY fAvE nOvEl" and make a long ass list of every single thing that…
Although I have read the novel, I agree with you. This is always true if a novel is to be adapted as a drama or a movie, some sacrifices have to be made.
They can think of it like this; "There's a dress you see in the store that you really like. You'll love the dress when you try it on, but it's too big for you. That's why they change it and make it fit for you and your size. You can request it longer or shorter (the size is adjusted according to you). There may be parts you want to add or remove. (You may not like lace, etc. Or you want some lace, diamonds, etc.)"
Drama-films adapted from the novel are like that. need to be evaluated..Sometimes I also have scenes in the novel that I do not like to be cut, which I think are very important, but in these cases, I evaluate the drama independently. At the moment, I evaluate all the dramas based on the novel I watch, including this drama, in two ways. I love the novel yes, but I also love the drama. Both are beautiful in their own way.
When you read the novel, you see it with your heart. You are the judge of how you portray what you read. But drama limits us in this respect.This is always the case. Therefore, when watching the drama or movie of the novel you are reading, open your horizons instead of experiencing disappointment.
I'll consider the stabbing as a dream for me to have a peace of mind
I think it's a dream too. Because TY never stabbed YH in the novel. He even said that when he got HPS, he didn't need it because he knew that YH wouldn't be able to withstand it. But YH learned that TY could not defeat SY without HPS and secretly gave it to him. In other words, if the stabbed scene is real, it would mean that a big change has been made in this drama compared to the novel.
Kinda late to the party since it takes me a while to recover from the immense pain that TTEOTM gave me and move…
Welcome to the club of those who got over the TTEOTM travail and came here. I think this drama has been good for all of us after TTEOTM. This drama has been going according to the book so far (there are some minor changes, of course) So if they don't deviate completely from the novel, we have a happy ending.
yeah .. B2B.. hoping youku this time they will choose happy ending.
TTEOTM also had two different endings according to the book. So while watching, we were worried about how it would end. But the ending in the book of this drama is not ambiguous. You can watch it with a sigh of relief.The chapters so far progress in direct proportion to the book. There were no deviations from the story. Except for minor changes. If it continues like this, we will have a nice happy ending.
I watched the first 5 episodes of the drama and like it.
Of course, there are no incredible visual effects etc., but I think the progression in accordance with the story and the sweetness of the actors are good.
YOUKU's biggest mistake is releasing TTEOTM before other low-budget dramas. TTEOTM's budget was very high and let's face it, it was obvious from the CGI, the costumes, the scenes... it all. TTEOTM gave the impression of "hey look I'm expensive" while watching. No matter what low-budget TV series we watched right after watching it, we would already feel a lack. Therefore, it is useful to watch some things without comparing them ,and concentrating on the story.
Let's get to this drama. I must say at the outset that I had read the novel about two months ago and was incredibly excited for this series to begin. The plot and the flow of the story were definitely very good in the novel. Scenes came to life with ease. I think they were able to reflect this atmosphere in the drama. Even though some parts seem to pass very quickly and perfunctorily, I think it is because they will focus on the topics in the following chapters.
We are at the beginning of the drama, let's not be prejudiced and let ourselves be left to the story.
I haven't been able to get over it yet. And I don't think I'll be able to recover from its effects for a long time.
There's an audio file on Twitter about TTJ's return. As far as I understand, YOUKU has made it for members only. But what to do with the non-image extra? Are you going to take the images to the grave YOUKU, share with us. When I thought about it, knowing that TTJ might be back gave me some relief(audio file).
But I would prefer it to be HE. TTJ hugging his daughter and LSS and watching MoHe lake together. To live together in the realm of God.
I don't know, I'm like a puzzle with a piece missing. Despite everything, I am very happy to be a part of this adventure. I will write a detailed review soon.
It was nice to be with you, my friends, goodbye to watching many more beautiful dramas together.🙋🏻♀️😇
I haven't recovered yet. Ah TTJ, LSS I'm so sorry for you. YOUKU, as always, you did what was expected. You've seen an HE a lot for us. We urgently need extra scenes. Meeting of TTJ and A MI. And after all, the great reunion of LSS and TTJ, the all-knowing goddess. And and of course the god wedding. 2. baby. I want everything.
Thanks for your quick response.😇
Each Man Kills The Thing He Loves- By Oscar Wilde
Yet each man kills the thing he loves
by each let this be heard,
some do it with a bitter look,
some with a flattering word,
the coward does it with a kiss,
the brave man with a sword!
Some kill their love when they are young,
and some when they are old;
some strangle with the hands of lust,
some with the hands of gold:
the kindest use a knife, because
the dead so soon grow cold.
Some love too little, some too long,
some sell, and others buy;
some do the deed with many tears,
and some without a sigh:
for each man kills the thing he loves,
Yet each man does not die.

It's like I've been waiting for 5 hours, and 2 hours to pass.
And for what? Only for 1 episode.
Youku are so cruel.😭
