i am stuck on ep 21, i have loved the drama up to nearly this point.. but for some reasons her being this perfect…
To me if I were to be v critical of the show then yes she has a cheat code but if you think about it, I don't think anyone can be like her. Even if you have lived in the future, are you brave enough, has the determination and the wits like her to do what she has done? I think everyone has their own taste in drama, to me I just love slice of life like that because it's so heart warming seeing them being so close with each other like family, friends and having the love of your life supporting you like that. I don't think she is perfect, she do need help from her friends and the ML in terms of legal advices, she do feel vulnerable at times.
but if you feel like all these aren't interesting to you feel free to drop - why do you need a stranger to tell you what to enjoy. Drama is meant to be fun and enjoyable for u ~
Such an underrated show! Zhou Ye is a great actress! This ML i'm seeing for the first time is not bad too! I just love the story, the positivity, the lessons about life. Although it's your typical time travel cliche plot, but this was done right and it wasn't even the focus of the show.
Yes the ending wasn't explain but I'm fine with no explanation about the time travel because its the process of her making use of her '2nd life' to live bravely and freely + the healthy mature romance of the leads that make up for it.
I actually binged to the end omg! ( Can't compare with POJ in terms of genre but one of the best drama of the year)
Heart warming show but i had to fast forward the last 2 eps. Lost the spark towards the end. Cool concept - bad execution - poor script. Love Jeong Eui but the drama she chose always isn't as good...
Just cant get into a Japanese drama/movie, perhaps its culture differences or the way it is translated, dialogue and reactions are a little cringey for me. Cinematography is lacking - example showing a person's face for more than 30 seconds. Story is kinda interesting but still there are existing plot holes. An okay watch.
If you lived five hundred years and everyone had else had something that you never had, you would at the very…
I get what you mean about not needing to spell out every single motivation on screen if it’s logically understandable. What I’m trying to say is a bit different: as a viewer, I don’t just need to understand why a character feels something, I need to feel it with them for it to stay engaging. If the drama skips showing enough background, context or emotion, the motivation might still be “obvious” on paper, but there’s less for the audience to connect to and care about. I’m not asking for hand‑holding or “dumbing it down,” just that the show spends enough time on those execution so the character’s curiosity actually lands emotionally with the viewer.
For now EP1-4: I’m the spirit lord, I can do anything, my mortal body is weak, I can’t feel hot/cold or taste food, I want that guy’s sword so I can get my senses back, he is not who he said he is, im curious abt him.

Yeah i get that but it isn't relatable as a viewer so the drama needs to show more of it and if curiosity is the plot/hook then it is going to get boring...
As a Netflix watcher, finally without reading the comments and watching leaks, like what XZ said ' its finally over'.
BUT I can't get enough of their love and FCY's fighting scenes. I guess near the end, it needs some kind of closure. I'm still confused over what the truth is - all I know is its the late emperor's fault causing so many deaths and tragedy.
I rate this show a 9.5 cus 0.5 is due to alot of political plot, steamy bath scene too short and lack of FCY fighting scene near the end HOWEVER its still Drama of the Year worthy!!!
PS: QM redeem himself at the end lols and QQ is really a time traveler omo PS2: Alternative timeline isn't needed ... just show us XZ and FCY having babies~~ 😘
I think it's because she has always existed as a spirit (never got to experience life as a mortal) and probably…
But I don't read the novel so as a viewer I don't feel the longing from her to get back her 5 senses (she didn't lose it from the start anyway) so that's why I'm questioning her motivation.
I just finished EP4. It was a little captivating at first and I'm seeing where this goes but the plot on finding the person to make her alive again (get back 5 senses) isn't very interesting to me. Like there isn't a motivation for her to have her 5 senses - She is powerful and 'living' so far fine without it.
I'm also in episode 10 & waiting for Pursuit of Jade's new episodes. 🤭😁 What a coincidence.It seems…
i think i mix up qing yun and the deputy - so later on when LJL was in Rong family then met him and become friendly with him, i was like wasnt he the one trying to kill him. This reminds me, the show didn't explicitly tell me when he recall all his memories as well. (probably did but kinda vague)

Yes i remember all that but the flow and execution is really lacking that you need such a long explanation to be able to understand the plot and the intentions of the cast - that is showing alot alrdy. I finished the show and yet i still dont get who is the one who betrayed him at the start and caused him to fall from the cliff.
This show is actually quite bad. I dont get the high rating. It's captivating in terms of plot, ML and FL are visually pleasing yes but you have to be blind to not see the plot holes, the bad acting from the side characters and lack of logic.
Although I'm half way through, I'll watch it till the end unless it became boring enough for me to drop
Edit: Finished it, was interesting enough for me to finish it but my opinion on its flow, plot holes and execution still stands on how bad it is. Even the ML and FL actions are questionable. If you are bored, its an okay watch ~
I'm watching this while waiting for more eps of Pursuit of Jade. I'm at EP 10.
One question, I'm confused why SB did not prove she is a tea bone and did she purposely put butterflies on the plate to prevent her sis from grading the tea - spoiling YX's plan to accuse her of being a fake? So does she have the ability of a tea bone?
Honestly this show is captivating from the start but there are some actions and plot just wasn't explained properly. I am also surprised like suddenly ML is interested in her (i thought he was trying to act with her to protect the cousin and also the FL from competitors?)
ALSO WHY ARE THOSE 2 EVIL MEN STILL AT THE TEA CEREMONY? ARENT THEY WERE KICK OUT FOR TRYING TO HARM OTHERS!?
INSANE 2 EPISODES! FCY in general uniform is just so cool! The fighting sequence is insane! I don't read the novel or spoil myself with previews so it's so surprising of what she did! But seeing her cry makes me so sad for her too I mean how could she blame herself? What she did was so courageous and honourable and insane!? How come she be at fault!?
But i did get spoiled from the comments on who her father is (these people without the spoiler tag and those who read the novels - f u _|_)

just doesn't hit hard as a viewer.
