watching this after three years and im enjoying a lot more cos im not scrambling trying to remember the names LOOOL. Like I finally know what’s going on in the first few eps. also on the second watching, this is definitely ROMANCE LOL. on my first watch i didnt really get that vibe but on the second watch this is definitely romance
In the novel, CXZ actually plotted his injury. He got the word about the empress dowager trying to get him betrothed…
in ep 29 she barely cared about his injury except that one time he fell off the roof. feels quite out of the character. i dont think shes so petty that she wouldnt care if he were in pain
why did they make all the women in the drama so unfeeling and heartless? not just miantang but he zhen too.
Even if she’s cold to cxz on purpose there’s no reason why the show can’t show us some of her inner turmoil? Cxz is doing so many bizarre shit to win her over, surely she feels SOMETHING??? it’s not like she doesn’t understand why he lied to her. But at this point do we even know if she likes him??? No one can tell. The only reason why they can’t be together now is because of their class difference. Is she so level headed that she’s not even the least bit affected??? even if she doesnt wanna show her true emotions to cxz she could show it to us?? the viewers??
4 eps in and its really not sticking. there isnt really any plot and idk where this drama is going. perhaps there is a plot but the journey to get there seems boring. the staggering 16 eps seem daunting at this point. and who keeps giving Kim Hyun Jin these roles cos man cant act and his diction is a mess.
