Kamlyn blossoms

He waited for a year. My boy was too pent up. During the first kiss, when the girl took charge in drunken state, it was like the most innocent kiss. I was little disappointed tbh. So he showed his real performance this time. 😬🙈

Not on the platforms I watch. On viki ep 30 will come out on 29th. Where else I can watch it btw!

For the first time I'm regretting starting this drama. I should have waited a little more before starting it. 😭🥹 It was my fault for starting it when there are few episodes left to be released. Just finished catching up to latest Episode 29 and I can't believe I was left hanging at such a crucial point.
After such a beast eating kiss, they got interrupted by a war? He should have killed that bitch, (just for character. I hate her sm) not cutting off her nose. 🫠😭
We have only 7 episodes left and I can anticipate the best drama coming and I'm all ready for it but not for the wait. I can't believe Wei Yan became one of my disliked characters to my favourite one. His character I thought initially was a flirty one, second lead, then thought a negative one, then he showed his redemption and how his character was not a green or red flag but a gray one, whose personality is just twisted but a good person at heart?
I love how Grandma suggested to let go the hatred. I can't imagine the pain that they feel, this kind of marriage was really build on hatred and distrust but they're handling it so well.
Tbh, both of them are right in their position. One wants to take revenge for his family by killing the betrayers, one is the protector of her family, and wants to seek forgiveness for them. They didn't do anything wrong, but they're the one taking brunt of politics and previous generation's wrong decisions.
Ps. I have to appreciate the girl who is playing the white lotus role. OMG, my blood was boiling just by seeing her face, she is so beautiful, elegant and hateful at the same time. That's when we say actor did a good job if you hate the villains to the core.

I feel this drama is so good because not only main leads but everyone has done a phenomenal job in portraying emotions. I like Qiao Ci alot, his innocence, his smile, his geniune nature makes you like him even more. Actors are well suited for characters, be it soldiers, grandmother, mother, brother and aunt, sister, the whole cast, did a good job. When you starts to remember names, people and like other characters in a drama too, you realise how much invested in that drama. I feel I seem to enjoy Chinese historical dramas more often than korean ones. I have watched only a few korean historical dramas that are mostly halfway watched but compared to that, I have watched more of Chinese historical dramas that I have completed.

This drama is growing up on me. More than that, the actors are becoming my favs now. The ML is really good for this role. It's been a long time since I appreciated another actor than the ones I already like. It's rare for a ML to be handsome, cold, hopeless romantic, yet the most ruthless man and looks like it. Otherwise, many actors who are in general or such positions, doesn't even looks like it. I feel this drama will open new doors of projects for him.

Same for FL. I have watched so many of her dramas but it's the first time I have admired her sm. Despite her well written character, her acting is flawless here. Her elegance, comic timing, that sassiness, suits her so well. Even my mom said she looks like a doll and it's true. She looks beautiful in this drama. I'm watching it on binge these days, and loving it so far.

Not a fan of historical dramas as I tend to drop them if they starts to feel dragging or bored to me but this drama is going well so far. No boring moment and I keep looking forward for something new.

I hope so then. Fingers crossed! 🤞🌻

Same! I particularly don't mind the genre, in fact it's one of those genres that gives best romance dramas but problem is it's hard to manage it. I don't mind slow development, but if it's dragged too much, repetitive hate and torture can make it very dragging and boring. And you gave the right drama reference, I also watched it. I was close to ending when I gave up, because the constant repetition of same plot was dragging and I couldn't watch it anymore. The actors were good, but I think if they had reduced episodes a bit and ended it on a good note, that would have been better in my opinion. If this drama can give me happy ending, and not make it too hateful or so, it can become one of my favourite historical dramas.

I would say good. The drama is not typical historical drama, it's a well blend of strong fl, follow the enemies to lovers plot but we'll executed. There are romance scenes including comedy parts, which makes the drama even more enjoyable. The fl is not just elegant but intelligent and knows when to confront or surrender. Watched upto ep 8 and so far it's good, didn't realised when episodes ended. The story flowing so well.

Watched upto ep 8 and it's been an incredible journey. I'm not a fan of hate to love stories much as I can't see FL's being suffered in the hands of ML and then have a romance plot. But here, the feelings of hate has a legit reason, it was a betrayal and very complex situation. Moreover, the Fl is not a weakling either, which makes the drama even more interesting. The timely inserted comedy/chemistry scenes makes it easier for people like me who don't like too intense dramas. It acts as a buffer from the serious, political matters and compliments well with the storyline.

I'm worried about the ending, I just hope it's just the happy ending, not the open or sad ending, because my heart can't take sad endings anymore. I don't want to be invested in a drama sm only to get a sad ending. 🥹😭 Ps. I still find the scene where she ran ahead and he ran following her, when he was supposed to follow her while walking, best scene of the series which explains their relationship the best. No matter how powerful he is, she will always be ahead of him and in his control.

This scene, it didn't felt planned, but adlib. 😂 That was my favourite scene!

You're right! 😂 I just realised it was long ballad where he was the second lead and not LLTG.

I didn't know that he is a singer turned actor. It's really remarkable. He caught my eye from his other drama because of his unique indifferent cold face which makes him perfect for such cold blooded roles and handsome face is a plus of course for romance. His acting was just phenomenal and yes, in this show both actors are surpassing their previous works. The girl is already pretty well settled in her career but tbh this is her remarkable performance so far. Like the best? The story, acting, the pacing and the chemistry is just amazing. Same with the ML, both are coming together so well. It's very rare for ML to be cold blooded but not making it toxic? Such roles can easily get twisted and becomes very cliches and boring but they're pacing enemies to lovers trope so well and it's not rushing or unrealistic. It's been paced so well. Before starting I was in dilemma of youthful glory and this and I'm glad I picked this one first. Because it's really upto my taste. It's like mix of love like the galaxy and blossom in adversity? It somehow gives me that vibe.

I'm so glad I found about this drama when it's nearing end and halfway through the series. Otherwise, if I had started it sooner, it would have been a torture. Recently I finished watched resident playbook, when life gives you tangerines and devil's plan 2. I felt empty and didn't know what to watch. At that time, I found this gem. I wasn't sure if I'm ready for a historical Chinese drama, which might be more intense. But seeing their chemistry videos, I give it a shot and I'm shook. This drama is soo good already. Watched 4 episodes today, and I'm planning to binge watching tomorrow.

I have watched fl in mostly contemporary, comedy romance dramas, and wasn't sure if she could act like a lady and fit well for historical drama. I know the ml from long ballad as a second lead.

But the chemistry here of actors is top-notch, the switch between being the ruthless leader to being slapped by his wife in front of everyone was hilarious and cute.

It was like he can kill anyone but he can't raise his voice in front of her kind of scene? We already have our guy as a hen pecked!
I'm loving this drama and will recommend everyone who loved love like the galaxy. It was my one of the best historical dramas and tbh this drama also somehow reminds me of the same. The ml has a tragic past, the fl is empathetic, cheerful but intelligent. Her character is more elegant, virtuous but cunning and intelligent than the other drama and it plays as a beautiful contrast yet well suited with the Ml's personality.

I started watching this show while watching resident playbook and just realised that geom myung's brother is um jaeil guy. I feel I'm seeing this guy quite frequently this year, in back to back shows. He is also appearing in a new series with Jong suk. He is literally working with iu and Jong suk in the same year. 😅😂 I feel this guy might win new actor soon.

It's not like only hyungyu doesn't like them, but his opinion never sit well with 7high since the start. When kyuhyun and tino seperately made alliance with him, promising all his team members to living room, while hyungyu didn't know about it at all and he was playing on his own and when he rejected this idea, saying he wanted to give his piece to someone from his team, 7high showed a huge reaction. Even in the next game, there wasn't any strong alliance and hyungyu was mostly playing in defense, not that much openly while 7high, Eunyu, others were making alliances here and there. 7high and his opinions never in line, and that's how a division was made. People on Hyungyu's side and others. Those who did not liked him, naturally went the other side and vise versa.
That's how they even get rid of sang hyun (not sure if spelled right). The alliances started to get stronger after that, where the games became more strategic and he was the one planning out the strategy and since he didn't want to pair up with him, the alliances were naturally divided. It was not only hyungyu but others didn't liked him either. If he had went to prison earlier, the others would have ganged up on him to kick him out, like they did in balance game. Fortunately he had rewards that's how he was saved at that moment. It was not only about pieces honestly, even hyunjoon had so many pieces and got the reward. It was all about how you utilise them and strategise yourself. In the last, so hui had more pieces than him, and he went to prison. If he had failed there, all of his efforts had gone to vain as well. It was a mind game, and the most advantage of his was not alliance, because the alliances were unstable here and there too, but his nonchalant attitude, indifferent and ability to stay calm under the worst situation and luck too. Poker game was in his favor due to seats and their strategies were well matched, if you notice even there it was hyungyu mostly leading the things. He got a high intelligence in judging personalities, attitude and decisions. He almost lost finale game, but his last guess won him. He could have lost that round and so hui would have answered but he gave the right answer, despite having 50-50 situation. So I feel it's wrong to kinda undermine his abilities and made it as if he won because of others. Because honestly, I supported him but if anyone had won, they deserves it, be it eun yu, hyunjoon or so hui, I would have appreciated the same. They all worked well in their own way. In a game where nerves are so high, it's not easy to make right judgements but they still did their best.

Everyone needs alliance. He played well in main games, that's how he also survived all this long. I know eun yu did well and always praise her for her play in games. But I feel you're kind of making it as if it was only hyungyu depending on alliances and not others. Even prison people had strong alliance, they were more dependent on alliances instead. But hyungyu was always leading in creating strategies when playing. Even eun yu herself was so good at creating alliances that she survived so many rounds, it's also a kind of ability.

Yes. Not saying it was wrong because it's a game and anything is possible and they were all trying to play and survive as well. Hyungyu did many things which worked in his advantage. Due to 7high's twist, hyungyu did go to prison and survived on his own, I think that also worked well in his favor, otherwise many people would have said that he was depending on others, because many people did say that about him. He even survived the last death match, and played so well, the finale well. But yes, death matches were more intense this time than main matches.

I feel Season 1 was great because it was a new concept, such great contestants, so much new things to explore, no one knew what's coming and the emotional drainage was crazy. I still remember how crazily seok jin cried when that girl (forgot name) was eliminated from prison for playing the game wrong.
This season, I feel it was more of an upgraded version and more dangerous to go to prison. The death match was literally so scary. The alliances weren't as strong this time but there was so much backstabbing going on. 😂😭 Which made drama interesting.
Everyone was playing hard, and I feel this season wasn't a let down either. Tbh, I loved it. More than 1 maybe, because hyungyu showed a practical side of gaming, he didn't go overboard with his emotions, didn't play dirty, was always upfront about his play and his strategies, he knew what he wants to do and how. It was a crazy game and I will miss it. But the best thing is, HYUNGYU won. 😭😭🤎❤️❤️

Yes! The game can be pretty toxic and exhausting. I hated hyunjoon in the game tbh, at points when he keep betraying people but after a game, he is a very emotional, cute guy. Their Chemistry as a team was so good, despite the game, I love all the contestants and it's so fun to watch their interviews. Ps. I loved how so hee and hyungyu played finale and hyungyu WON!! 😭❤️🤎

It depends how you watch it. As a viewer and dramatic show or just overall game show which has so many things involved, from game to emotions, to betrayal to strong personalities. 7high was never wrong when betraying or playing game, but then being hypocrital about it when others do the same is not right. That was the problem, he was more of an emotional person. He easily get swayed by things and say whatever he wants to, sometimes it wasn't even right.

That's true. Like, at least be cool when kyuhyun and so hee changing their minds. But no! They be like you're betraying me, suddenly again hyungyu became the bad guy. But they were just playing game when they were targeting him, again all and 1. That too in a hidden way, not even straightforwardly. Then target kyuhyun and blame hyungyu for playing game.
