I'm really curious to see how the author had maneuvered around all the taboos in this book and if they managed to make a good story out of this novel.

this is the second air dropped drama of these days. seems Youku is trying to use the heat form the newly finished The Double an the fact summer holidays are here to make this one a success even if it might not as hot as the double was.

He seems to have August, a tv show released this year, about his journey through these years of absence as he tries to bike his way to Tibet . If you can get your hands on it go ahead and watch it.

what I cannot get is why does this man Joe really have to go back to his old lover after all the S*** they went through? why if not him he has to choose his old flame Sol? cannot he has a third better option since he got to start a new?

In my idea Zhou Jun Wei is a decent actor with a handsome face and very little screen time hop he gets to play more roles, so we can enjoy him as an actor more.

I'm not saying he is positive but I'm talking about how twisted and mentally sick he is. To do all that and alienate himself from any guilt calling himself a loving husband one needs a really twisted mind.

So far great filtering and color adjustment from the Youku, which is an improvement from some of the series it does and actors faces are not blurred that much.

but did he not make her unconscious before he buried her, he may have become soft hearted in a a twisted way, thinking to himself I cannot do this to my wife, AKA I love her I cannot torture her to death but it is better for her and my family to have her dead since the princess would want her dead anyway. So I may just bury her like this since she'll dies it is better if she is unconscious and unaware.

apparently the brother is alive in the novel, captured by the princess.

maybe he was trying to convince himself, he really did not kill her, since she was alive when she was buried.

there is a bunch of them, it's gonna be red every where with all the do* blood they going to splatter every where.

well he's being a hypocrite, believing himself to be free of any guilt and throwing it on the other people, so he can trick himself into being a good person who had no other choice.

That's a Youku style for you. They always blur the actors faces to the point one can hardly detect the emotions on their faces.

my calendar shows it will be two episodes per day.

You're not the only one, I find it not very interesting too. All this money that has been used to make this drama and all that well known actors as the main or supporting roles seems such a waste for this uninteresting story. Though I'm sure IQIYI is going to earn enough out of this actors fans but this series is only "duh" in my opinion.

after finishing the novel and watching the trailer, I can see they have made some changes to the story and I hope this changes are for the better since the relationship between mains is so unhealthy in the story and it made me doubt myself if I would like to see the same thing in the drama or not? though after watching the trailer it seems some scenes exist in the drama that do not exist in the novel making me hope Murong jing character is more likeable here than it is in the novel. fingers crossed

I've heard the release date is the may 25th.

Youku has it as the first drama in it's coming soon section, anyone knowing when the approximate time is?

well it is a cultural thing doing back to Confucianism teaching back in the day and how filial piety was a must for child to have, believe it or not it was a sin deserving of capital punishment to be unfilial. it seems to be a belief any decision or act your parents do even if it is against your own judgment, must have been for your good since they are older and know better.

A good series if one can ignore the mishmash of fashion and hair styles, better to have tagged it historical fantasy so all those things could make sense.
