I agree now. Even if script is not maybe so good for someone lets say... For me its okay good...details are brilliant.…
I disagree, the script is brilliant, and the details are... I don't have the exact word for them. Details in this drama keep our brain constantly engaged, they complete and help to build up the story, keep us constantly intrigued and entertained with smth and there are like tons of these details so craftily put in the right place at the right moment (also as clues) which push you to rewatch the scenes and eps as they were asking from us not to miss them... Details are "brilliantly engaging", maybe that's the right wording
When she said to scriptwritter she found boyfriend in this world. It was fun to me because he is her housband…
She told that after she clearly said: "we are husband and wife, I can't have secrets with him" to justify why NH knows the dude is the scriptwriter. Being married implies certain obligations (like not hiding important things) while having a boyfriend implies personal liking, love, satisfaction, sweetness, an intimate emotional bond she doesn't want to give up
Strangely, NH was even more pleased when heard her saying "boyfriend" than husband.
Now that you mention it, she kept dying no matter how she tried to survive in episode 1...
yeah. The reset to an earlier point happened only when she invoked "God" saying she doesn't want to return to that world any more (after being poisoned).
This is actually a great point, how it is all fictional, that makes the most sense coz she thinks it is all a…
If this all ends respecting the logics, characters and the audience, it will be the first time I'll rate 10 a drama! It deserves full marks already (for hundreds of reasons beside the story) but I'll wait to see if they messed up smth in the plot towards the end
I think I've figured it out: "a dream within a dream" is the STORY happening in fictional Jing setting written in the modern world STORY when a person (SHY) from the modern world STORY "transmigrated" into the former. When she "was falling" in Jing, we've heard that same typing sound (sounds & tunes play a great role in this drama, the sounds are constructive elements to build up the story itself) we are used to hear every time an "iconic scene" is forcibly happening. I've called that sound "deus ex machina" (ancient Greek theatre was using mechanical devices producing sounds when representing a "divine intervention" in their plots. In broader sense, it also stands for a particular writing technique: when a writer uses one side story to tell or explain the main story).
So, both the actress SHY in modern story and SYM in the Jing script are fictional characters created by an author of both stories (both "dreams"), being both maneuvered by the same "divinity" (SYM calls the scriptwriter "a God" several times when trying to explain the role) who set the rules which govern the characters. The scriptwriter we've seen in the 1st ep and the one in lord Qianyu body is the author's alteroego/avatar, created to represent him in fictional world and interact or, at least, to challenge both the audience and the characters with their lack of human empathy. The horrible "iconic scenes" and messy script set aside, the first alter-ego (man with spectacles) challenged the taste of costume drama audience (for liking messy and over-the-top dramas) and the second (trasmigrated screenwriter) has zero respect for the characters he created. He apparently treats SYM as his "hometown person" but expects her to suffer (real) pain, to sacrifice her limbs and to die in Jing plot as to make her return to the modern story. Why would she do that? She is doing great in the Jing plot, living better as SYM than in the modern world fiction. And all other characters are doing great without any divine intervention, including crazy CGH who has chosen his path to demise by himself. The final battle between the supposed "divine" (/ inhuman) and "human" (for how fictional) will definitely be smth memorable, imo
He’s upset because the ML and FL keep changing his script. He wants to return it to how it was originally written.
He said he tried to re-write it, but the characters were messing with the story he wrote... The Scriptwriter obviously hides smth important (he mentioned 4 rules, but hid what was the 4th rule from the FL). I remember we heard the typing sound when she transmigrated into the script, so her transmigration must have smth to do with him
The Screenwriter is hilarious, absurd and creepy at the same time. Great acting! Now, when we have the answer that major changes (such as WRC and Nightwalkers) in plotline occurred due to NH's own efforts and not because the Confusion Creator wrote those changes in a new script, the story continues on its own path, independently of this funny person who'll put all his efforts to mess with the story. Thus directly entertaining the audience.
Did we ever get the explanation of why the uncle always preferred the younger song sister (yiting) rather than…
The uncle disliked NH personal interest in YM. Any person too close to NH may threaten his influence over NH. But he was approving power-related interest: the bond with Song family and taking the CGH's fiancé away from NR's camp. He proposed YT instead of YM when she showed herself out, with different men: CGH, NH and in Waning RC, it was too much for an unmarried girl (that was the period when she was planning to kill NH with CGH and LSL during the Lantern Festival) with double purpose: to take away YT from NR (and definitely seal Song's bond with NH) and to sow discord between two sisters, making it easier to manipulate NH in the future
Woow this has so much sense. I can see that he becaming tragic instead of her. So yeah you have a point... I love…
we are the audience, not fortune tellers on how a drama would end. I've only analysed what Bekbek23 (correct) reasoning neglected, deducing no real harm should be expected on such premises.
Have only watched up to ep 30, so far.Overall, this has been one of the better CDrama productions I've seen..…
you're right, but she is a B-tier actress, a slacker (as she defined herself), superficial, stubborn, lacking in many ways as a person. As her agent said, she got the chance to act beside a great idol with a huge fanbase only bc all the top tier-actresses refused to perform in such a script. I've thought she adapted too fast to the new environment, caring about people she is not supposed to care about, they are outsiders to her, why should she care? She even tried to be brave and after the first problem (incapacity to find out the forging method, or to kill the ML who blackmailed her to find out the method), she simply gave up and instead of fight, she immediately chose to flee, again. Far away from the ML, who is a born fighter, capable of resisting any odds. And then I thought: it isn't likable, but I'd do the same in her place, it isn't illogical. Be patient, bc. now, she is truly in love, and in the end she will surprise and shine
Indeed, I am thinking about this since yesterday. It's a crescendo since she discovered NH and LSL are the same…
If he created LSL independently of the first and the SECOND script, he is the winner over anything pre-written, predestined etc. But I think NH created LSL in the 2nd script, after the actor's agent complained about the lack of strategy and defence for her client's character. We'll see tomorrow. ☺️

and... I wonder if LSL existed in the first script, she skimmed only superficialy, or he was created by NH independently of the script and the scriptwriter
