They both are on opposite sides so she is using his attraction to her to get the upper hand. I don't see that…
ML also held her captive (she literally calls herself a prisoner) she tried to escape multiple times but he didn't let her, all to gain adv over cui yi so they're both equally toxic according to your logic then. their whole dynamic is competing with no fair play.
picked it up after initially deciding not to watch it a year ago. the leads had amazing chemistry. i wouldn't say it was flawless but it was a fun watch regardless. the gaming was a little hard to keep up with tbh. ML felt kinda unique. the whole speech he gave to FL in that one ep about why what she did was wrong had me clapping because I totally agreed. i loved how they handled that whole problem. though the side couple felt too artificial.
the way netizens opinions kept changing made me laugh cuz that's exactly how they are when a scandal unfolds.
you're beautiful when you smile is such a beautiful title why'd they go for the confusing and grammatically incorrect oneðŸ˜
I’m on episode seven and enjoying this. I was wondering, she has a bit of a distrust for the male lead. Maybe…
late reply but on reddit I saw some one say it was because of how their characters were in the novel this was adapted from. they made ML more trustworthy for the drama hence confusing people.
i just completed this drama and overall it was a very good watch but my only complaints are how sidelined bai fenxi feels around ep 12-23 for like 8-10 episodes she felt like a side character when they started the yongzhou politics part. but it got much better after that. last 2-3 episodes are felt a little unpolished and it isn't about the ending which I don't consider to be "sad" at all.
i like how there wasn't extra drama between the main leads. they both accept that they have feelings for each other without being too extra about it, they're always there for each other, trust each other no matter what. a true power couple.
for me, the romantic moments were balanced well with the plot. at no point it felt like it's turning into "all romance and not plot progression". their relationship progressed nicely with the plot and their chemistry was really good as well.
the best part is FL is strong till the end. a lot of stories that begin with a strong FL kind of nerf her to highlight the male lead but they didn't do that with BFX.
12 eps in and I'm hooked. i saw a lot of complaints about the fight scenes but so far I'm enjoying them maybe they say so cuz it gets bad later or my standards aren't really high yet cuz this is my 2nd/3rd costume/historical c-drama. don't mind the politics either and their chemistry is good too.
I'm sorry but I'm not sure which timeline you are referring to.
if you've watched hidden love, they have a friend at/during whose wedding (ep 13) DJX found out about SZ. and around ep 21-22 when SZ returns to namwu, SY refuses to pick her up but JX sends a "threat" (delivery) to SY so he would be woken up and would pick SZ.
Is this show about incest? someone on the comment section talking about brother marrying the sister, is it true?
i didn't see a problem with it the entire show. they were childhood friends before their parents married, also did not grow up with each other, and lived in different homes throughout their lives, weren't even in contact for over a decade.
spoiler: they got together at the end and their parents got divorced so they're neither related by blood nor by law.
can't miss even a single dialogue or it confused me later and I've to go and rewatch the scene. a drama that requires 100% focus throughout to understand what is going on.
enjoyed watching this one. the one part that got me rolling my eyes was the big brother (kiichi) turning himself in.
early on i thought what if makiko was trying so hard to hide the past not because she did it but one of her sons did? because her being the culprit at the end would be kinda boring.
and when I tried to guess which son it'd be i thought, they deliberately tried to make kiichi look mysterious and the shabby look pushed that too and thought "watch it be the younger brother" and laughed thinking I was overthinking. seems not.
a lot of people that are mad at the ending don't want to consider that there's the final season airing just next year ofc the story doesn't conclude with this one.
their whole dynamic is competing with no fair play.

the FL's dad married the ML's mom but she had her two children (ML and his brother) with her ex-husband.
