Dejavu

There is a similar scene of that. But instead of him , is her. The young emperor was learning how to draw talismans with the young woman and he ordered her to try one of the talismans.One of them turned her into a rabbit and he caught to play with her by purpose.In this case, it was Zhu Yan who made this and played for a little time with her preceptor.🤣🤣🤣

Confess

I love when the enemy, well, an antihero learns his mistakes and do the opposite after many wrong tryouts. As for Zhu Yan, I think she will be punished for that.And I don't like that Xuelun woman. She is always spying and jealous.

so is Ms. Tsumeta, the snake offering the apple?!? cause sorry, at the start she goes to Yujin, telling him she wants to represent him & then calls him Takara. in the office she goes on about being attracted to Takara at 1st site, feeling a strong pull... like WTF?!? this female shady! ****************************************************************************************************************& is she stupid?? when she saw how flustered Takara got, after a few takes where he was floundering, why not ask for a break take him aside & suggest he call Yujin?!??? she was at fault for what happened(!), she wanted to separate Yujin & Takara saying she would do everything Yujin did & fell short at the 1st chance?!? plz - idk what her agenda is, but she was right at the end stating that coming between the pair will break Takara.*********************************************************************************************************************************************i was wondering why Yujin was pushing so hard for Takara to sign with the agency. but then i realized i answered the question i had in the previous ep. Yujin had dedicated 7yrs to being Takara universe, which was great for Takara . but not so good for Yujin . bet it felt to him like he was not just putting his life on hold, but he was also watching Takara achieve all the goals he had for himself. so i understand him wanting to cut the umbilical cord. ******************************************************************but then i ask, why did Yujin even start this type of relationship - where Takara is utterly dependent on him. Takara seems like he is on the spectrum & cause of that, he needed a firm hand & as time progressed to have the training wheels that is Yujin taken off, so he wouldn't be this dependent on Yujin .

Naive

Zhu Yan is still a woman with a girl brain, which means she had never had a good lesson since her childhood. If she was more dedicated like the crown prince, she would be great as him.But I also think that have something to do with her past life. Many dramas showed that when you are a descendant or even the original one with blocked skills, you cannot do incredible things yet.

read that it was psychological, in this 1st ep other then the fact that i didn't get why when Takarada 1st approached Yujin he couldn't voice his request, but felt the need to write it down, as if he was mute. ****************************************************other then that, this was kinda wholesome - even if i didn't get why Yujin agreed not only to help teach Takarada the ropes, but turned into his manager/assistant/teaching coach for 7 yrs. & given how closely they work with each other - how can Yujin not experience jealous when helping Takarada so intimately. asking for trouble IMO.

Terlalu distraksi

Episode ini, mirip seperti sebelumnya. Sangat dipenuhi dengan filler. Walaupun cerita utamanya bergerak maju, namun pemeran utama (arm dan ryu) benar-benar tidak punya dominasi panggung. Episode kali ini punya kemajuan pesat bagi cerita utama karakter run (adiknya ryu). Selain itu filler lain yaitu karakter pria pendukung (saya lupa namanya) punya time skip yang terlalu jauh, mereka cenderung punya konflik dan resolusi yang tidak jelas. Dari segi latar, episode kali ini punya latar yang sangat sempit, dialog yang sangat sedikit, serta dominasi "vibetune" yang berlebihan. Slowburn pada episode kali ini lebih menekankan pada cerita, membuatnya sangat lambat (walaupun ceritanya bergerak maju). Selain itu, karena minimnya scene pada karakter utama membuat "main role" malah tidak terasa seperti main role. Saya baru sadar bahwa karakter tambahan di episode kali ini sebenarnya terlalu banyak jika diangkat kedalam cerita utama, ini membuat distraksi tokoh utama. Selain itu, episode kali ini rasanya malah seperti baru masuk ke dalam konflik yang sesungguhnya (konflik utama) series ini. setelah sebelumnya orientasi sangat baik dibangun. Namun timingnya tidak tepat karena konflik utama malah terdistorsi dengan konflik pemain pendukung yg malah mendominasi. Walaupun bgitu saya akan tetap melanjutkan series ini.

wont say this wasn't fun, but this is fitting for an ep in a drama, not a special. especially not when the drama ended the way it did. & anyone arguing that Hero's dad giving the OK for the guys to return. is a halfassed conclusion. considering his personality, not to mention the dark hint that Seal did something to Pop's car. ****************************************************& as Pop didn't really leave the driveway, u don't know what is wrong with the car - so why give us that scene? like the scene with the girl - why was that needed?!????? again this was all down to bad writing. ******************************************************************************************************************************************i liked the Only & Tiger scenes, same with a bit of the parents cause they relevant - but the strange chick was added - cause??? wish they used this special to tie up lose ends. they didn't & this again more of a miss then a hit. but on a whole seeing the guys together was sweet.

Five Stars

It's very interesting to look in this disfunctional family. I was horrified by the mother and the sister in law. But as the Female Lead had it very bad before she kept calm and waited for the right time to solve the problems of her "husband" and "stepdaughter". I like her calm and the picturing of the rural country life.

Five Stars

Very fast but not bad plot introduction! The Female Lead was quick witted and gave her all to flee this forced marriage. And as life goes she got into even deeper problems. But even here she could overcome the bad situation ans safe herself and the others with her. That she would now join the family of the man who would have married her isn't just a cheap story twist, she does it to protect a child. You see the story is like this, better than many!;-)

Asal Nak Cuba-Cuba

Aku cakap, awalnya hanya nak mencuba tapi tak sangka boleh melekat pada drama ini.Kredit yang besar perlu diberi pada kesemua pelakon kanak-kanak dalam drama Northward.Meskipun mereka muncul hanya dalam 2 episod tapi sangat meninggalkan kesan yang mendalam.Pendek kata drama ini merupakan sebuah permata tersembunyi.. jangan skip satu babak pun.. kerana tidak anda akan menyesal.

Insane work ethics

Silly Seong Hyeon. Da On was just kidnapped, almost murdered, saw you potentially get murdered, is full of blood, and you want him to hold a presentation? This is really not the time for that! And turns out Jae Min wasn't just a red flag, but a psychopath. They really had me with that whole "I'm done" and him leaving.______________ But that greeting in the end was a bit disappointing... After a year, that's it? T_T And ruining his day by telling him he'll be a week late? Why was that necessary? Otherwise, I'm glad about the happy end.

i am so confused - this is the end?!? the C-BL was cut short cause of censorship b.s in that country. what was the cause for leaving it this opened ended - heck unfinished, in this drama? hopes for a sequel?!???? ********************************************* am shocked that anyone thought this would be a good idea - this just frustrating & annoying. cause given Hero's fathers "reach" /name/power he can't get ahold of both guys? really?!? - i am 100% sure that if he had shot both guys, he could've gotten away with murder & no one Not even Pop's father, would dare fight for justice. that's the power dynamic in that country, Hero's family is above the law! so them taking that gross cousins car & eloping amounts to a short vacation, cause Hero's father would contact the cops (his connections) & say the car was stolen, then what??? ridiculous plan that would never work - **********************************************************************************************************************************************this was totally b.s. writing & it's ironic cause this bit is all down to the Thai writers & considering they got the book, the other adaptations, let alone other dramas to go off - this is the best they came up with?!? what an utter let down.*********************************************************************************************************************************************until this crap ending, this was fine - heck it was fun & i loved the chemistry between the main guys, maybe cause i watched the cut version. the age difference between the actors (let alone one of them being underage) didn't bother me much, as what i saw was very PG & pure, innocent love with a bit of heavy petting, but nothing uncomfortable to watch. *********************************************************************************************************************************************if the end is what painted most of the comments POV, i get why a majority of comments were negative. as it is infuriating & feels like a waste of time. but i wont forget or lie - this was good - yes it could've been written better, where the whole plot was re-worked so not only there would be a logical end to this BL, but character's like Only & Tiger would be utilized better to add to the whole BL, as the actors did a great job with what they had! but we get weird crap about Hero's mother being psychic - like why even bring that aunt & waste time ??? anyway if i ignore this ep - this was fine & fun, i would've happily rewatch, but sad to say as is this a miss NOT a hit. bummer

Lu Guang creates friendship rift

ZXB leaves Chengya Society and the same time she leaves the umbrella also disappears. This causes the teacher to fall seriously ill and she cannot be comforted with the double slam of the loss of favorite student and umbrella. CXS has discovered the lies LY has said to get him to find out info on ZBX. He knows his friend is lying but no clue why. The truth unravels at the 2023 concert and while LY comes clean, CXS feels used and wants nothing further to do with him. CXS doesn’t quite have the right of it, but LY has done nothing to negate that summation of their relationship. His close to the vest treatment of his personal matters makes it look like he never saw CXS as a friend, but simply a means to an end. CXS now believes that the rules he was told of photo travel was one big lie and LY really has no defense due to his silence and stubbornness. HX has driven a significant wedge between them and whether deliberately or not, it was a successful blow to divide CXS and LY. ZXB goes to visit her mentor in hospital but doesn’t have the courage to go into the room. She has left who she thought was the love of her life, but learned he stole the umbrella when she left 15 years ago. Now she feels guilty and ashamed to talk to her mentor. She along with everybody else wants to find it. QL is using her podcast to bigger the net of information to try to assist, but so far only crank calls from that end. LY is dealing with some hard truths about himself and rightly questions his motives as mentor to CXS. He sees no way to make it right and CXS is making himself scarce with a don’t call me stance to LY. The actors continue to do a good job drawing you into the scenes and making you feel for the characters.
