I havent watch this yet but is this version is as good as Lee Seo Jin version of Yi San?

NOOOOOO! If most of the scenes are shot behind the green screen then the CGI must look fake. ;_; Its ok, I think I can survive it lol

IKR? A dream cast! :D

haha!

What is the original title?

Oh really? Then I will surely give it a try! :D But can I know what do you mean by old-style production quality?

I actually like how Yibo chose the direction of his career after The Untamed. Rather than acting as a lead in dramas, he prefers to be in productions with experienced actors despite he might not be the main lead. A good choice to make his name more well known for general public.

I followed the drama during its airing time and Hyeri gave an interview after the drama ended and told the audiences that Taek has always meant to be the end game by the writer. I forgot already all the signs in the drama but I did catch it after the 2nd viewing. It totally made me impressed with all the little signs since I really thought Junghwan is the hubby with the way the drama is structured.

I think among the signs is the drama started as an interview to the adult Deoksun. Who is among the leads who is famous enough to be interviewed? Only Teak as he is a famous Go player. And during the interview, we've seen the adult husband went out for smoke. Who is the only one who smoke in the gang? Again, only Teak. And both the young Deoksun & adult Deoksun keeps asking Taek to put wear more layers during winter (she never did this to anyone else). And not to mention Taek is left handed (Bogum in real life is right handed) just like the adult hubby unlike Junghwan who is a right handed. And the most damning proof is the date on the picture which was given early in the drama. The husband pointed out the picture date which is on the right side where in the drama, the date on Junghwan pic with Deoksun is on the left side.

This is incorrect as both the writer and Hye Ri confirmed that the writer has always intended that ending since the very beginning. Thats the brilliance of her writing -- her ability to misled the audiences with her script that made them think Jungyeol is the husband but when you watch the drama again for the 2nd time, you will notice all the little proofs that Taek is the hubby since the very beginning.

Teak character was modelled after a famous Go player (Lee Chan Ho?) which playing style is losing at the beginning and only win at the last minute just like Taek. You see in the drama how Junghwan has always been leading in pursuing Deoksun but then Taek come in the last minute and the rest is history.

Did Reply 1988 end game surprise you? In a way, the SL seemed to get the girl.

Can I know why you dropped Legend of Fei? I thought I want to give it a try since I'm curious to see Yibo in different role esp a light one as this article described.

I enjoyed My Heroic Husband but I probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone lol.

But I esp LOVE Marry Me though. Its like a light drama which is full of fluff and made me really happy when I watch it. The whole production definitely on the high side as the sets are beautiful and expensive and the costumes are the best! Its a first time that I watched a costume Cdrama where the couple wear coupling hanfus and I super love it. :D

7/10 - Okay, I cried at the reunion scene in the last episode. It was so well done and in my opinion one of the best reunion scenes in dramaland. When I started the drama, I went from ‘Zhaolin, the things I do for you…’ to ended up enjoying the drama for real. This is a great story about brotherhood, friendship, forbidden love, responsibility, sacrifices, obsession and what one has to do for the greater good.

Thank you!

So far interested with Dr. White and Jun's new drama. I love it everytime he plays a husband and a father -- I personally think he suit those type of roles. :D

And I low-key interested to watch Hare-kon lol. How on earth the ML can have 2 wives and wish to marry one more

I love Jdramas in general but I really cant get into Saikou no Rikon. I feel like all the 4 characters are despicable and just really horrible as human beings. Are they going to get better as the episodes went by?

Intelligence did make men more attractive tbh (same as confidence trait) so I actually really enjoy highly intelligent characters in my dramas. But when they become fools when they're in love, I will be pissed off lol!

Thank you so much for this article! I love cold and aloof male leads in Cdramas but the funny, mischievous and warm ones are actually my favorites! I wish there are more Cdramas with male leads like Fan Xian since any dramas with this type of character will always be funny and interesting.

Agreed so much on the highly intelligent male leads though. I think I have never seen a costume Cdramas where the male leads are not highly intelligent or borderline genius. I have to admit its always been one of the main attraction on why I enjoyed this type of dramas so much. :D

You should add the male lead in My Heroic Husband in your list as well. He is funny and warm and overall a really interesting character. And of course Xing Zhaolin character in Marry Me. Its actually one of my top 3 fave characters of his. He is so excellent in playing mischievous type of roles which imo the closest to his real life personality.

If you can survive the terrible CGI in Ten Miles of Peach Blossom, you will survive this as well haha. X'D

My opinion they made a mistake with the first arch story. It made the drama looks terrible with the excessive CGI for the Demon Emperor

OKay, I have watched this drama due to recommendation but I didnt remember any of it. I wonder why it is so unforgettable. :((

They said she is not a good actress? Seriously? I thought her acting when she's losing her mind is very believable. I had to rewind and rewatch that scene couple of times since it is that good. :D
