Yes, same here! I literally renewed my WeTV subscription this month just for this drama I don’t have the strength to wait for the Viki lag. And honestly, who knows… when the final episodes drop on the 29th, I’ll probably be too weak to resist and just pay for express access like a fool with no self-control 🥲I just really hope they don’t do her poor husband dirty. He doesn’t deserve any bad karma from her choices he’s been through enough just loving her 😅

I really feel for Manman. Yes, she made a mistake, but it stemmed from a past decision that wasn’t wrong at…
This is one of those rare instances where I can't pick the side. I think his anger mostly comes from the fact that she probably wouldn't have told him ( at least not yet) if this situation hadn’t forced her hand. And to be fair, she wasn't completely sure if he had truly let go of his vengeance plans… and honestly, neither was he until it came down to this moment. So yeah, I totally get why he’s mad, i’d be even more angry if i were in his shoes. But at the same time… I also understand her. I probably would’ve done the same thing withheld the info just in case. So honestly, it all depends on whose perspective I’m looking from and when I switch, my sympathy flips with it too 😅

I guess I called it on the cousin after reading your comments, huh? So cousin did betray after all. Snake; grandfather…
I haven’t watched the episode yet because I refuse to pay for express and I’m trying so hard not to cave and watch it elsewhere 😅 But I am happily spoiling myself with all the comments! What really frustrates me about the cousin is how she constantly uses that poor man like he’s some brainless toyboy. Okay, maybe he’s not the sharpest sword in the armory,but he’s loyal and kind and she knows it. Instead of appreciating him, she manipulates him (like she has before) just because she can. And after everything the FL did for her and their family? She owes her morally. The least she could do was talk to her husband and make a joint decision. But from what I'm seeing in comments… apparently not. I get that she wants a peaceful life, who doesn’t? But this isn’t the kind of story where you get to opt out. If you want peace, you have to fight for it. Hiding behind excuses while others bleed for your safety isn’t peace. It’s cowardice 😡

🤣🤣🤣 Thank you!! If I ever start writing, it's not for fame, it's not for art, it's for vengeance. I will avenge every side character who died nameless so the main couple could grow emotionally, no more unpaid deaths! Power to the plotless!!! #UnderpaidButOverkilled #BlinkAndImGone #ILitTheTorchSheUsedInChapter5

my bestie! let’s hold hands and share some stale bread in the background while the FL and ML ride past our village in slow motion, their silk robes fluttering like destiny itself. We’ll blink once, maybe cough dramatically, and that’s it our entire existence reduced to two lines of scenery description while they pass us by under a filter of golden light. No name, no dialogue, just ‘villager a’ and ‘mud stained companion’ living our best irrelevant lives 😅🤣😂

Oh wow, meat and/or a roof? you are aimjng so high. I was mentally prepared to live in a mud hut, bathe once per solstice, and catch the plague from a mildly suspicious rat. Honestly, your optimism is offensive how dare you believe we’ll survive long enough to marry anyone? 🤣🤣

In every novel scenario i can only imagine myself as a Patient Zero in a zombie apocalypse. I’m the person who sneezes once in a supermarket and dooms humanity. Or the poor soul living exactly three metres from ground zero when the alien mothership decides to redecorate Earth with lasers. If it’s a historical drama, I’m not a duchess or even the noblewoman maid, i’m some dirt-covered villager in the background, just trying to survive the 67th famine of the decade while wondering what soap is 😅

I don't think I will support the sister to be the FL instead. Sure she can use whip, but she pick fight with everyone…
the first scene I saw her in, and it immediately put me off. The fact that she carelessly pushed a pregnant woman and showed no real concern , except for being flustered because she found the male lead attractive, really set the tone for me. It’s hard to get behind a character after that kind of introduction, no matter what growth might come later

To me Ming Tan is so like Jane Austen's Emma. Like Emma, we are watching this young, privileged girl develop and…
Yeah, she's totally giving me Emma vibes, but I think Emma was even more out of touch (from how things are in the real world) than Ming Tan, at least from what I've seen so far 😅 but yes definitely Emma kind od character

Title Youthful Glory
If you’re thinking about starting this drama, you should probably read this (one small spoiler but not much…
It took me three tries to finish the first episode, not because of the actors, but simply because it's hard to get into something new while following other dramas at the same time. That said, this one is light and easy to watch; it doesn't require much thought, which makes it a nice filler while waiting for other shows to update. I'm only on episode 2 (or 3 😅), so I have no idea what the FL does later on that some people find annoying, but so far I haven't found her irritating. She comes across as a typical privileged noblewoman, much like many others in historical C-dramas. She doesn't seem foolish and has her own desires and thoughts. If she stays as she is in the first couple of episodes (and isn't dumbed down just to make the ML shine), I have no issue with her. Honestly, there are plenty of other things one could pick apart in this drama, but her character (at least so far) doesn't seem to be one of them. She is a rich girl who wants to continue having a good and privileged life, and to do so, she needs a husband she can tolerate and who can give her this privilege and stability 🤷🏼♀️

I really like your comparison to a mussel nurturing a pearl,it’s a beautiful metaphor for cultivation and growth through karma. The main difference, I think, is that the Chinese dragon is divine by nature; it was always a dragon. In contrast, an Imugi must earn its ascension to become one. So the pearl, or core, carries a different meaning depending on the mythology for the Imugi, it’s not just a symbol of power, but a vessel of potential that hasn’t fully matured yet

Title The Haunted Palace
I think his pearl/core/ball/essence/orb, represents everything he is and everything he could become. It holds…
but still a bug spirit should represent decay, the complete opposite of an imugi. They are lowerlevel compared to an imugi, which is about to become a dragon and ascend. It is like a cockroach versus the sun. But let's go with the explanation that Bibi was so consumed by the battle against his brother, wounded and morally corrupted (maybe, as he is an imugi, human morality doesn't really apply). I don't know; I just feel they could have done something more while writing this part it just feels off. anyways I'm off to watch episode 12 as I still didn't watch it

At that point I swear the writer didn't know what to do with Yeori. Bc yes she was captive but at the same time…
Bibi was overtaken by lazy writing, and let's face it, he was never a champion of intelligence. But regardless, he's an Imugi, not human, never was. There's no reason for him to think or feel like a human, because that's simply not his nature. Imugi exist on a completely different plane of being. They cultivate, ascend, and move on. Human experiences, emotions, attachments, moral dilemmas, are not part of their path. If you really think about it, they shouldn't care about or dwell on any of it. The spirits of the dead, on the other hand, make sense to have rage, love, regret, etc or for ML to feel more because he is experiencing life in a human body.
