I’m glad there are some who actually understood the plot & it’s characters 😆

Right my exact line of thoughts at first…how is she gonna pull off being a general with her size 😆
Or she doesn’t have a demanding presence & why was she chosen to be a general by ML’s father.
But slowly we see the intelligence behind the sweet fake identity she created.
Nothing gets me happy than watching a smart or strong FL.
So far we can detect she can be deadly in her own way of battle & can see intelligence when planning & scheming plus awareness….i now starting to understand exactly what ML’s father saw in her.

Weirdly I never liked the FL in any of her other dramas…here is alright her lack of charm in some parts actually contributes to her role considering she’s supposed to be general commanding warriors in battle.
I am impressed with her skills and how she switches between deadly & coy.
It’s actually refreshing seeing her in this role.

I would agree in some aspect. Actors & performers in K-drama, C-drama & music are rewarded with crazy loving fan support but with that extreme comes toxicity….small negatives can become huge in their world and big negatives is career career ending overnight.

I waited so long for this I jumped in as soon as it aired 😔 I don’t think I have the patience to wait every week for this particular drama.
Now I’m just here hanging & watching like a security on patrol 😆

You say this without knowing facts?
Okay.
First everyone who’s been in any health or fitness program or training knows that gaining & loosing weight fast is damaging for your body.
Anyone working with professionals would highly discourage this unless you take time in between filming to slowly & healthily unload the weight.
(These guys don’t have time for that…some even have 2 dramas or movies filming as once)
Other than this you kinda answer a bit of your question.
The viewers and Fans are extreme in these countries. A fat photo would bully them right off their career.
These fans would hold them higher than most countries lol and just as easily turn their backs when they no longer are interested.

Honestly I think the female playing male is old as times in these type of dramas…I get it but it’s nicely done in this one it’s not that noticeable especially when she’s a badass in compact.
If you think too much abt it then of course it’ll get to you.
And you might have missed some part where many already questioning & noticing the changes.
From the ppl of court, Chu Zhao & even the ML himself whom trained with FL when younger.
It literally showed them confused & suspicious over meeting the evil brother.


As for the ML I would disagree…just like the FL, Ryan Cheng are perfect for their roles.
Suggesting that a B rated actor would better than a A rated actor as the Lead is a bit far fetch IMO but I think you went into this drama very critical considering it’s only just aired.
But your opinion is your own and probably best to not continue if you’re already hating it when the production itself & acting are already on point & about to unfold the plot.

Been marking this for the longest time so excited when I scrolled through Viki & seen they finally aired this 🤗
Loving the FL’s character so far!!!!

Ending had some loopholes….like she’s ment to go back to her original timeline or she’ll die but the timeline she went to is still the one that she just left from?
There wasn’t any explanation after she arrived…it was like everything just went on like her moving timelines wasn’t a thing…. cause technically she shouldn’t be able to change her original timeline cause in that one the king died, the younger brother isn’t conscious, Prince Che also died & the rest of the brothers hated each other.
And it couldn’t be the 2nd timeline cause in that she never really existed.
Yet now the timeline in the end was all over the place…it was a mix of both timeline which don’t make sense.
The king & brother Che are alive so it can’t be the 1st timeline but Elder Tao is still alive so it can’t be the 2nd Timeline.

These changes were crucial to her actions so if she did ended up in a whole alternative timeline on it’s own then it would mean her jumping timelines & making changes to the 2nd one was all useless cause in the end she just ended up in a whole new timeline (3rd) where everything is well & people she wanted alive are all there and those she wanted gone were no longer valid. Either that or she simply didn’t make it out of the last jump and she just stuck in a make believe world of her own dreams.
Or am I missing something here?

I think she refrains from acting on direct romance..but Search WWW & Island are dramas I remembered her from. She’s a main FL in those and both non-romance great dramas in addition to some listed.
She also does a lot of tv shows & host some I’ve seen online.

Came back to give this a higher rating…🤭
Got to hand it to them, they certainly took me by surprised. LMAO
Not an easy feat these days & was starting to get bored with all the new dramas.
It was a good laugh from the legendary Ep 6….shocked me right into wide eye giggles through out.
I can just pictured the writer high as a kite while writing it & gets funnier the more I see clips of this online 🤣

Hahaha it’s so bad yet I totally love it 😆
Meh totally worth it, not often a drama surprises me these days….apparently I wasn’t the only one.

Ep 6 was a whole drama on it’s own 😅🤣

Lmao yes ridiculously artistic

Yes I understood all this ..what I ment was that the timeline of his sudden change in persona didn’t suit his character beforehand.
His character was written as a simple, happy and no pressure type.
This was a guy that didn’t care for status, never abused or pressured negatively by his father.
Overall his decision for revenge was valid but even in anger his acceleration from good to making murder plans was literally decided on the spot.
A lot of the emotions you mentioned like discovering he was being made useless then realising the neglect all came to light around that conversation when they discovered the flowers on the grave.
He was never written with evil intent yet his decision to be one was overnight just from talking to an outsider he already knew was out to destroyed his family.
I mean he should at least questioned the smart ML that took out strong allies of his father.
The result was good but that slight detail got me out of focus while watching this.
Maybe it’s just me 🤷🏻‍♀️

In this case it was kinda needed since they wanted to put a twist on the 3rd villan identity.
The ML needed the hesitation in dealing with the Queen. Feelings got in the way for both and they were able to survive each other & pull through to actually figured out the truth.
He was train not to give in and if he hadn’t had the connection with the princess he would have killed both & never found out the real enemy.
Besides these the FL & her people did help a lot in his cases not to mention saving his life multiple times…there is no other way to go through that much for someone insignificant especially someone with nothing to offer her unless love was entered into the equation.

Very predictable but the journey was enjoyable 👍🏻

Zhuang ZhiXing was the most unexpected & misplaced charcater for me here.
We see him as a caring & free spirited young man that for the better part looks up to his dad…he values the memories of the kind father that spent quality time with him as a child. And we see the bond they had..even more than his mother.
Perhaps the writers didn’t dwell too much on his love for his mother but his turnaround for revenge was so quick and adamant towards his father.
Even if it’s to revenge his mother’s death the relationship he once shared with his father was instantly meaningless.
In most cases we would see a slow developed hatred or a crumpled tortured individual…they would be completely torn & in denial knowing the truth especially one as kind as he was.
Yet he took an outsider’s side after a few push and plotted against his father knowing full well that the end results would be death & family downfall.
It was hard to believe this but it’s a drama and it all worked out well for the ML.

I’m half way 🤭 I haven’t been able to put it down and reading your comment you’ve described it perfectly & the comparison are my thoughts exactly.
Perfectly said.

Ahhh understood..thank you
