i really like season 1. unfortunately, for me, season 2 feels 'more' like a Chinese drama, not in appreciated…
What do you mean? Season 1 is also Chinese drama. And all other GREAT costume dramas like Love Like The Galaxy, Story of Kunning Palace, Blossom, The Double, The Prisoner of Beauty, Fated Hearts, Glory, Kill Me Love Me, Coroner's Diary, etc are also Chinese dramas.
If you talked about IDOL dramas then make your words right.
Korea was not a country that suffered war damage from Japan; on the contrary, it fought on Japan’s side. Wherever…
Nah. You are the one who need to think straight about this matter. You can't deny or change the facts about war criminal like Japan, no matter how much you love Japan.
You are the one who should learn the issues properly here before twisted the world history. You know what? The Japanese Annexation of Korea in 1910 was a forced action, not a request by the Korean emperor. Emperor Sunjong was forced to accept the treaty, signed by Prime Minister Yi Wan-yong under duress, ceding sovereignty. Previously, King Gojong even had fought against Japanese control, even seeking international help.
About war damage, Korea has suffered extensive, long-term, and multi-generational war damage, colonization, and forced labor at the hands of Japan, primarily during the Imjin War (1592–1598) and the colonial period (1910–1945). They also raped many Korean women + make them as Comfort Women for Japanese Soldiers. These historical events resulted in massive loss of life, cultural destruction, and the forced mobilization of millions of Koreans, the impacts of which continue to affect Korea-Japan relations today.
not available on any platforms internationally although it airs nationally on all of them wtf😭 except coming…
What do you mean? A Dream Within A Dream was available in both IQiyi and WeTV international. It's totally a different situation with this drama! This drama is not available everywhere internationally except Huace channel in Youtube with slow release. Viki is region locked. If you are in other countries besides USA, then it may not available for you.
I love that everyone is going off about how there isn't any young eye candy in this series. The lead is an attractive…
No. Men will change in their 40s. Age 30s are still very young. There are so many handsome actors in their 30s and they are still in the peak of beauty and popularity. For examples Liu Xue Yi, Cheng Yi, Yang Yang, Xiao Zhan, Chen Xing Xu, Bai Jing Ting, William Chan, Ren Jia Lun, and etc many more.
They are still very handsome. No aging.
I am sure they are still handsome in their early 40s. But idk with age 45+ or 50+ 🤭
I guess ill watch it on another streaming service cause tecent video says its only 24 episodes but on here it…
If tencent said 24 eps, then it's the right episodes numbers. MDL here is not official page of drama. It can be changed later to follow what Tencent said. You should follow Tencent episodes because that's the official streaming platform.
So, I wanna ask, this drama is like Love O2O? Or Love Scenery? When ML and FL fell in love in both worlds like game/virtual reality + real life?
Mostly, I watch 99% of Chinese costume dramas. I am more picky about modern dramas. So, I haven't checked this drama yet. The rating for this drama is unexpectedly so high for modern drama just like The First Frost and Hidden Love. That's kinda rare IMO. Because usually 8.7 - 9.0 ratings above are always belong to Costume dramas.
Does anyone have any recommendations for colossal dramas like SOKP and The Prisoner of Beauty?
This is my top recommendations for GREAT Costume dramas with Romance + Palace Politics + Game of Thrones + Noble Families Conflicts + Wars/Battles =
- Love Like The Galaxy - Story of Kunning Palace - Blossom - The Double - The Glory - The Prisoner of Beauty - Coroner's Diary - Kill Me Love Me - Wonderland of Love - Are You The One - The Rise of Ning - The Princess Gambit - Flourished Peony - Blossoms in Adversity - The Princess Royal - Who Rules The World - Legend of The Female General - Destined - New Life Begins - My Journey to You - Si Jin - Serendipity - Fated Hearts - Glory - Fight For Love - A Dream Within A Dream - And etc many more
Honestly I did not expect to like Xie Wei getting into this but dang his character is actually really likeable.…
The romance between Xie Wei and Jiang Xue Ning in SOKP is actually very good. But it's slow burn. So you should wait until ep 30+ for hot romance. The kissing scenes are brutal and hot.
Forensic Examiner Song Ci is also better. and so is Judge Dee's Mystery.first season, the female lead is more…
I guess i will drop this season 2 in ep 12. I just can't continue to watch the cases. Previous cases are not solved yet and we got another corpse there. Their autopsies are also so boring. They only checked external injuries or bruises. It's so different with Coroner's Diary. They had some cases where FL needs to open the bodies to solve the cases in Coroner's Diary. And the results are very satisfying. Most of the time, they added unexpected twists as well.
The Wanted Detective is also better than TIC. They have big cases + side cases with interesting connections. And here, people are only busy to guess who is peacock without discussing any cases.
I will check other two titles that you mentioned. Thank you.
I don't enjoy this drama. I am watching season 2 with expectation of highly praised season 1 and CORONER'S DIARY.
I think Coroner's Diary is still far BETTER than The Imperial Coroner. The budget and production designs of Coroner's Diary is more premium with higher budgets. Coroner's Diary is definitely more fast paced and they had well written script with interesting cases + jawdrop twists. The autopsies are well done + great logical thinking. The FL in Coroner's Diary is more beautiful, smart, briliant, mature, and charismatic. The ML in Coroner's Diary is more handsome, supportive, and mature. No unnecessary misunderstanding between couples. The chemistry between main leads in Coroner's diary is also very great as partner and couple.
If we compare this drama to Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty, STOTD is also better than The Imperial Coroner.
How about The Imperial Coroner? TIC season 2 got higher budget with better production designs than season 1, but that's all. Season 2 cases are BORING and flat. The closing of many cases are unclear. It's so different with Coroner's Diary and STOTD case solvings with satisfying closing and results for each cases. TIC is also slower in pace. Boring characters, boring chemistry, and boring cases. They keep praising Chu Chu got briliant brain and skills, but until ep 11, they didn't show anything briliant. Please show me, don't tell me!
I am wondering why people like this drama? With season 2 like this, I am not interested in watching season 1 with lower budget. I guess people watch this drama (season 2) because of their love of season 1. I can't say much about season 1 because i don't watch it.
Also, don't ask me to leave the page or anything if I don't like The Imperial Coroner. It's my rights to express my opinion here after watching 11 eps of TIC season 2.
The kisses are well done so far. Not with the fl or ml opening their eyes and the lips not doing a single thing.
Do you live in the past, dude? You are so outdated. Most of Chinese dramas kissing scenes are so great and passionate these days. Many of them are even hotter and steamy.
For example The Prisoner of Beauty, Story of Kunning Palace, Love in the Clouds, Kill Me Love Me, Moonlit Reunion, Till The End of The Moon, Flourished Peony (S2), WDBTD, and etc many more.
I thought prince an was the only prince from season 1. I dont like palace drama, hope they focus on murder cases.
Palace politics and noble family conflicts dramas are so exciting! I don't mind if they want to take another path with the briliant mix between murder cases and palace politics like Coroner's Diary did!
Who told romance drama should have kiss scenes . romance can be indifferent way
Actually i don't understand what's your problem here. My answer is already very clear.
No matter what you said. My answer will stay the same. And all production teams for romance dramas will always have kissing scenes + other physical intimacy scenes.
Most of people watch romance dramas for main leads love stories and their romantic scenes. We talked about romance dramas here, not thriller or horror.
Who told romance drama should have kiss scenes . romance can be indifferent way
Go watch all Chinese and Korean romance dramas! 99% of them had kissing scenes and other physical intimacy scenes. From holding hands, hugging, kissing, until bed scenes!
You watch romance dramas for LOVE STORIES. And what do you expect from romance dramas? Ofc great chemistry between couples and their physical intimacy scenes (including KISSING SCENES).
What green screen? All locations in most of Chinese dramas are REAL. They only use CGI in fantasy dramas. For…
Well, ep 36 is still locked behind the "express" paywall. So i still can't watch them. But thanks for the direction. I will check them out asap after Tencent unlock them for VIP.
The moments on green screen lowkey took me out lmao
What green screen? All locations in most of Chinese dramas are REAL. They only use CGI in fantasy dramas. For Costume dramas, they always use real locations (real imperial palaces, real noble family houses, real mountains, real forests, real sceneries, real gardens, etc) for all the scenes. For Xianxia dramas, they still use real locations for "Human Realm" parts.
Shine for Me is a modern drama. And all modern dramas 100% use real locations.
LITC all the way. LOFG is quite good plot-wise and execution (Zhou Ye's acting is good, but the CP lacks chemistry),…
No! Are we watching the same show? Legend of The Female General also had very GREAT chemistry between Zhou Ye and Cheng Lei. From partner to couple. Their relationship is very natural.
Many Chinese dramas have great chemistry actually. Love Like The Galaxy, Story of Kunning Palace, Fated Hearts, Kill Me Love Me, Blossom, The Double, The Prisoner of Beauty, Love in The Clouds, Love of The Divine Tree, WDBTD, etc also had very GREAT chemistry between their main leads.
