HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIII THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE NOVELS WHAT.. I literally cried reading this novel and remember thinking I would want it to be adapted yasss.
I usually like cliches but this drama was too much. They stuffed every single possible plot device into the script and overdid it. The only reason I finished was because I was just that bored and started having fun laughing at how unbelievably cringy the entire show was.
Nope, the ML doesn't have any feelings for her until she's in college. In fact, he nearly takes her as a biological sister. It's lowkey like reverse pedophilia bc the FL likes him since 8th grade lmaoo
I mean did it get out after being sealed away the first time?
Good point, they didn't do a great job describing it like that. I am pretty sure the woman they are referring to is Cheon Gi (because it showed her silhouette during the voice over). If it is her, it's probably describing what happens at the end of the drama (she paints the king's drawing which is the sacred vessel used to seal the demon).
I literally screamed when I found this. I recently reread the webnovel because it's one of my faves and I had no idea it was being adapted into a drama. YAYYY
Gosh why did they have to make erduo's classmate act like a STALKER. He literally pops up and follows her everwhere, even to her multiple part time jobs. I was especially disturbed during the ktv bday scene where he was looking into every room trying to find her bc he knew she was gonna be there.
No.. 699 is actually the apartment that both of the protagonists lived in. The male lead is the one of the early…
honestly, I totally agree with you! That's why I have never rewatched a single drama in my life, plus there's just too many new ones coming out that I have to catch up with haha. I would say I enjoy watching a long historical drama like rebel princess at least once simply because the production and costumes are so gorgeous to look at.
I do have a tip though: Instead of rewatching you could try watching all the short clips of the long dramas on youtube! My friend was really interested in Ruyi but the drama is soo long so she decided to just watch all the clips instead of the whole drama and she could probably sum up the entire drama just from those clips alone LOL.
Also I don't know if this is correlated but I always wondered if maybe for historical or other large scale productions they wanna make it longer for more screen time (and hopefully more revenue) to offset all the money poured into production because I feel like they probably cost more than modern dramas. Who knows though haha.

I think it's because for viewers in their own country they would usually watch while the show is still airing on TV or streaming sites so that it can become a routine part of the viewer's day. The last time I visited my grandpa in China he would sit down at 10pm everyday to watch this republican era drama on the TV before going to bed and those dramas usually tend to be like over 50 episodes lol.
that's what I wanna say too! I surprisingly found this drama super good because the couple had great chemistry. The cliches didn't even bother me, I just laughed at them lol
I wonder how they're gonna go over that arc.
