Fox Volant of the Snowy Mountain (2007)

There are 3 asian dramas (and one asian movie) I wish I never watched simply because I believe the writers must be sadist seeking to depress and/or frustrate their audience. The dramas are Chuno, Return of the condor heroes (2006), and Fox volant of the snowy mountain (the movie is Lust, caution. You'd do yourself a favor by not watching it). For me these 3 dramas are the epitome of frustrating misunderstandings left unresolved for long periods (some not resolved at all and some resolved in a half-assed manner) and pitch fork tragic tales. Could only wish someone informed me sooner and I would have readily skipped all of them. All of them have good production quality, good actors/actresses as well as other good points but all of that don't matter due to the countless tragic events that unfold, delayed resolutions to events and silly misunderstandings that continually occur. I say do yourself a favor and don't watch this drama. If you'd still like to give it a try though, then suit yourself but don't say you weren't warned.
