Also, please watch back the scene with Waner & Fan Xian and kindly listen & read the dialogue between them. Why…
Completely agree, WanEr is like that single ray of light that strengthens FX in a world so riddled with plots and schemes, she's his safe place and she had every right to react the way she did, infact it'd have been an error if she didn't struggle with such a weighty revelation, that shows how much FX means to her.
I think it's the biggest test of their love that they had to work through.
Comeon, original Ye LingEr was feisty, she took such an interesting character and gave her the personality of wet tissue, my God, I think that was the ONE goof that irked me the entire time she appeared on screen
I've watched Gina in like 3 dramas and she's a fave of mine but my God if this were my first time watching her, I'll never see her in anything again
She could have at least watched the 1st season and tried to mimic YLEs mannerisms or something
Can I just say Haitang DuoDuo is super beautiful this season π
Also has anyone noticed how she looks at FX when they interact, she has a thing for him, she just tries to hide it when people tease her but she soooo does π€£
Just finished the last episode and the sense of loss hit me hard. What a truly mind blowing end to this season. I don't think there are up to 3 Cdramas that had successful sequels that have the same level of quality and story telling. I can categorically say JOL is one.
I understand why some are nitpicking and looking for faults that don't exist, this is literally the diamond of the season, the more we the fans gush about it, the more they wanna tear it apart, holding this masterpiece to such high standards but literally turning a blind eye to all the trash dramas being rolled out every week in cdramalandπ
I understand we can't all have the same tastes, but the 2 seasons shouldn't be compared as they're intrinsically different, if Fan Xian had continued the same journey of season 1, the same critics complaining season 2 is boring will be the very ones saying how stale the story has become. Most people don't even understand the premise of this show tbh, this isn't one of those shows where everything is explicitly revealed, even an eye twitch alone here can mean the admission or rebuttal of a fact.
The depth and writing of the characters is unlike any show out there. No one is a plain bad or good character, we all know the emperor is a sadistic megalomaniac, but damn I have such a deep admiration of him, he has such presence and charisma I'm yet to see in ANY emperor, when I watch dramas with the dumbest emperors being led around by their consorts, i roll my eyes and ask why can't they be like HIM comeon! Even the scene he revealed himself as FXs dad had me teary.
I'm so proud of FXs growth this season, every character was meaningful, every episode was interesting with zero fillers and I'll miss everyone, even He Zong Wei, lol
Season 1 : 10/10 Season 2: 10/10 Season 3: 10/10 in advance heheπ
See you JOL heads in 5 years time with my 5 kids and two grandchildren π€£
Can I just say JOL is one of the best productions to EVER come out of China. This is one phenomenal drama, the season 2 is just as , if not more enjoyable , than season 1. Words can't describe how much I enjoy this series, every single character has a purpose that fits into the bigger story like puzzle pieces, there's been a barage of below par cdrama productions that this just feels like a breath of long overdue fresh air.
I might have a complete rewatch of season 1 just to fill the void or just jump right into the novel because it's gonna be a long drought after this till something good comes along again in Cdrama land
I think it's the biggest test of their love that they had to work through.
She literally had ONE look all through this season, she really looked like she was confused and probably didn't even know what was going on, maybe she was held hostage and told to put on the costume and just say some lines, who knows? π©
