Right!? Cai Wei is a perfect example of a well balanced character. She also throws tantrums, is brash and can be borderline annoying sometimes but has tons of redeemable qualities. And has chemistry with ML from the very first second.

Haha ok, lets see. However, I can't even in good faith give 10/10 to a show that annoyed me to the brink of my patience for 18 episodes. And like I said, I don't mind anti-heroes or even irredeemable ones , but they have to be written really well. This one however was far from it. If you have to use ridiculous plot armor to force you agenda, that is actually the worst kind of writing. I know that the whole tone of it is a bit silly and I really like that, however you can't break the rules of your own world you created just to strong-arm an ridiculous idea into it. Like somebody said, she's a pampered princess that can't do anything right and there are even multiple scenes that show she's on the verge of being downright incompetent and dumb, and then all of a sudden she manages to fool everyone of 18 episodes. And I wouldn't mind that if it was somehow pure luck, or if she had a redeemable quality that would be her driving force. But not only that, the biggest sin they committed is they had to dumb down the ML in the worst possible way to get away with it - a ML mind you that manages to navigate an intricate maze of all the complex characters and he does that in the most sophisticated way. And all these things together is just too much. Don't know if you are familiar with the saying: You can have a nudist and you can have a Buddhist, But to have a nudist Buddhist is just too much :)

Thank you. Glad at there are at least someone sane people on here 🤣 I’m downright skipping her scenes. All these 10/10 are riddicolous. That means you resonate wholehartedy with this show and it’s the best thing ever. How can someone resonate with this spoiled brat who has such despicable behaviour? Yes everything else is really good so real shame for this stain.

I don’t know. She has 0 redeemable qualities in the beginning. She’s not even an anti-hero. She’s basically the antithesis of the hero or heroine. Let me see, but doubt I’ll change my mind :)

Everything else is really good. But I really can’t stand her. Or what she represents. The writing is ridiculous. They use such plot armor to achive what they want with her it’s almost laughable. I just hope they don’t backpaddle their questionable decision and brush it off and she gets what she deserves. Ok that’s great to hear that that it’s not a romance thing.

Omg I’m only on ep12. And I can’t stand it. So childish and revolting🤢

Thank you, much appreciated! Can’t wait haha Then I shall continue watching 😁

Thank you for letting me know! Does she get exposed for being a fraud?

Can someone pls tell me if Tian Xi Wei is in this a lot so I stop wasting my time. Her character is absolutley vomit inducing.

that I agree 100%

Lol you just validated every point of this review. Why would an average viewer give a shit about who Im Yoona is? Just another in the long line of washed up idols wannabe actors. With the only difference being that her acting is absolutely atrocious. Bae Suzy, altho kinda the same level of acting skills, has at least looks going for her. Which brings me back to the original point. Aside from a few diehard fans, who would call a turd produced by their fave idols a masterpiece if the were but selling it, an average viewer or at least those who are not brain dead, care about those "insignificant" things such as plausible plot, good writing, character development etc

Sooo well said! I couldn't agree more with it! Trying to take Ling'er's cowardly selfishness and pass it off as a virtue in the form of "selflessness". What's funny is that at some point even one of the other characters says it in the scene. (facepalm)

Yue Ru was by far the best character in the series. What a character development! When she first appeared on the screen I absolutely hated her haha.

So without a doubt this was by far the best example ever - a master class, if you will, on how to properly do the second lead. And even though I totally had The Second Lead Syndrome, I didn't mind it so much if they didn't end up together, because of the immense depth and compellingness of the character itself - the identity and the reason for its existence was not predicated on the successful romance, she had so much other qualities going on for her.

Until they went and completely ruined it all and killed her off for cheap sobs and shock value. It just leaves you feel cheated and empty. They really managed to shot them self in the leg, or rather blow their leg off quite a few times. This show is soooo frustrating I can't even described it. And that makes me hate it even more. It went from 10 to 1 back to 10 (with the going back to the past) and finally it dropped to -1 with the ending.

Finally someone said it! Preach!

Sooo true. Such an unbearable FL. She alone makes me wanna drop this show.

Lol please the SML is so cringe. Even his acting was bad. You talking about FL falling in love with ML for the sake of the story?! How many times in first 5 episodes can FL fall down, like a biggest retard and SML is there to catch her? Please! Contrivance after contrivance. And then the long stare. So forced and cringe. No spark whatsoever. Sticking onto her like a fly onto the shit. So annoying and can’t get rid of it. Lol good thing YOU see why FL fell for him when even she doesn’t know.

Imho I would stick to any xianxia/wuxia cdrama, they are miles better.

No point in arguing with these brain dead trolls who are in love with their Oppas just because they happen to align with their repulsive taste in looks. Anyone who says that that wooden plank lee jaewook is doing anything remotely close to acting, let alone being better than JSM, is absolutely intellectually and mentally challenged in the head.

It was straight up-cringe.

Sorry but that's an insult for The Untamed, which was great!

So well said! I’m sick of these brainwashed morons. I dropped this series because FL was so freaking bland and uniteresting only to later learn she’s an idol turned actress. Go figure.
