watching this a 2nd time, now that I know the back story and all the characters is much more awesome.
Every ep has me so hype!! I gave this a 10 the first time I watched it so this is gonna be fun

weird thing to say when I literally agreed with everything you said but ok… 🙄

maybe they are all so stiff since they have all been trained assassins for like decades? I agree with you its takes away from the story but I kinda understand why.

All these newer dramas are flashier with the whole cast of perfect beautiful ppl. it’s not like it used to be w the cheesy characters and dodgy graphic effects and unattractive leading characters. way diff vibes

omg I forgot how much I love su Chang he. adorable lil rascal

DY, BR, TBY is the order chronologically for the plot

I just rewatched DY and will rewatch TBY after I finish this one again. they are even better the 2nd go round fr

starting my rewatch of DY, Blood River and Blood of Youth. i haven’t read the novels but wanted to watch the story in order to make the connections better.

I cried over uncle ran for 18 eps like he was my own uncle 😭😭😭😭

I’m so sad I’ve completed this drama. honestly it was so good I didn’t want it to end. casting was TEA. story engaging. *chefs kiss*

I didn’t realize till he got back off the train. but even tho that is revealed so early the story stays peak

EP 10 😭😭😭😭😭😭WDYM he died?!???? do ppl quit here? this just went from thrilling to heartbreaking

I agree if he did the same genre all the time you get type cast and he’s already done a ton of roms.

random but I love the way wang hedi says “sifu”

just finished the drama and overall was mid. LYN was amazing as expected. hated the FL character def brought down the whole experience. 18th prince fav side character but they all had their charms. honestly great cast

fm 8 more eps of her being literally the worst sounds rough but if the endings worth it I need to see good things happen for nan heng

I’m on so 21 and I’m still so annoyed at her. like why can’t she just talk to him why she gotta scheme all the time smh

just finished first episode!!!! excited to see how this drama goes. it seems funny and plot has potential. different than the more serious LYN dramas I’ve seen. he is funny irl so I’m stoked for this

EP 33: what a mess. I don’t know if it’s the story that’s messy or the way it’s edited it’s just got me annoyed. the actors are all great tho and the set design is on point. I just hope they can shape up this story before it ends but 6 eps isn’t really much time to do it in.

that’s definitely Liu Yunings voice. I love the way he talks. and the way he sings… omg. bros has one of the best singing voices I’ve ever heard. he’s done so many drama OSTs like over 50

Joy of Life 1&2
The Starry Love
Arsenal Military Academy
Demi Gods and Semi Devils
I think DGAAD fits the description you gave to TEA. it does have a few silly kung fu characters who over act on purpose but the story is amazing and it has 3 MLs!!!! the romance plot for one of them is absolutely hilarious too.
AMA is heavy on Xu Kai and has great side character plots. the other two are in my top 10 list and mostly fit your description
