There was a show called The Imperial Coroner and the FL was the Coroner so I thought it was a show about her, but it wasn't as after the few initial episodes the show was all about the ML. Don't get me wrong, all the characters there were interesting and I cared for their future but I felt tricked as the FL wasn't really central to the plot as the ML was. Now in this show originally called Amei joins the army or any other alternative of a title with Amei part of it... I feel it is more about the ML journey at this point and not hers. But even after 24 episodes there is no character development. Everybody is just the same like in the episode 1, the only thing that changes sometimes is the situation. I have no connection with side characters so I'm never worried for them and I confess don't care for anybody really. The second ML or whoever he is supposed to be in this show is non-existent. The 3ML who is supposed to have some kind of brotherly relationship with her is barely there too. The relationship between the leads doesn't feel earned, they could have wrote their romance in so many ways but no, they liked eachother straight away out of nowhere. Maybe there were scenes they chopped off and that's why it is like this, but who knows, this is what we got. ps. I almost forgot about her childhood sweetheart/enemy, he is almost not existent too because FL is put on second place in the story so it is not about her, but about ML and his journey to become Emperor abd his relationships with people around him
I confess I'm a bit disappointed with the lack of progress on the revenge part, and I was kind of expecting Amai to be a general by now. I feel the story is not that much about her at all, except when she needs to give plans and ideas to her boyfriend. Finishing episode 23 now... and there aren't too many episodes left...
Of course, when I'm off on the weekend, there are no new episodes. But at least I'm going to Chinatown today to stockpile some cakes from the bakery and have a super crowded walk. 😆 Happy Lunar New Year, everybody! Let's hope the Year of the Dragon will be a good year 🐉🎉🎇🎆
At what time does Viki normally upload the new episode? Like approximately! Hard to wait :/
I just know when I wake up at 5:30 on Saturday and Sunday mornings in the UK that the episode is always there. 🇬🇧☕️ best way to start a day with a coffee 🤣
Just finished ep 9 and I'm amazed how there hasn't been one single episode, which was boring or dragging! Who…
At first, I was delighted that this was a 12-episode drama, as I believed it would eliminate any unnecessary filler episodes. However, now I find myself wishing it were a 16-episode drama 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
seems that he likes her and as well he is using her
I'm sure he is. She was his childhood sweetheart and his family. I guess he did what he did in the past because the family would have been killed anyway, and that was the only way for him to save her. I guess he can only go through some kind of redemption arc by dying or something like that. Anyway, his decision ruined so many lives, regardless of his reason. As much as he seems an interesting character, he doesn't have any problems letting his soldiers kill and torture civilians.
They could have at least tried to write it well if they wanted to change main parts of the plot, but no, it was too much to ask. Their love story is not love and it is not a story; it is just there. It feels like he fell for her just because she is female, and she likes him just because he was the first man to see her and treat her as a woman. The end. My coping mechanism is like when your friend falls for some guy that gives you the ick, but you can't say anything because it is her choice and you just need to accept it 🤣😅
I understand that it is common for dramas to simplify or alter the original story, but in this case, the changes made are actually the aspects that I hate 😅 But regardless I still love the drama so far
I am reading a novel... and really can't understand why screenwriters couldn't follow up the original plot!The…
This makes me so much more annoyed with the direction they took in the show, especially for Yi Zhi and his character. Where can I find the novel, even if it is in Mandarin?
Why did they make the ML so silly? He's not the sharpest tool in the shed 😂 I'm only on ep 9, so hopefully…
I gave up on him, I just ignore him like i would if he was a real person talking, just filtering him out 🤣 the show is very good, and i really like the FL
why cdramas why? They almost always lack in some aspect. FL, pace, amnesia plot, or rarely ML lacks in most cdramas.…
My only hope at this time is that she will leave everything behind in the end and be free alone. Anything is better than her being with him. I thought I would start liking him in time, but no expecially because their romance is so badly written as well. 😭 By the way, in the OST video, it seems she will end up alone and free.
