It would be a great twist if JiYong, as we suspected in the past, really had the same "do-over" chance as Dou Zhao. So he's playing the long game, and his whole alliance with Lord Qing is an act.
I watched up to episode 5, and surprisingly, I like this.
I was not expecting to like the FL character because of the comments, but I actually don't mind her. I wish it was a different actress, but the character is quite cute.
The ML is attractive, a little cold but we all know he will warm up to the FL. In fact, he's already cracking...lol
I like the action scenes but the CGI is not that great. The use of different accents and dialects is a fun touch too!
Overall, at around 35 minutes, it's an entertaining filler show.
why did they make the empress and the grand princess look so similar. it's hard to tell them apart.
I know right, I thought it was the Empress who gave Dou Zhao the imperial decree to marry who she wants. Then someone corrected me saying that it was the Princess but when i went back to check on my big screen, it turned out that it was the Empress after all.
So true - this is not a perfect 10 or even 9-rated drama to me because of the draggy episodes at times but it…
You're spot on about what makes this drama a great watch. It's too bad that how the PR and marketing for a show can make or break it. It's even sadder when fan wars can bring a show down.
That's the scary part - Dou Zhao may have the benefit of knowing some future events but so far from what we saw, she would not have any idea about these people
So, A villain who was involved in the death of all his parents (biological and non-biological) A very good friend with a bigger evil agenda A lady in a high position showing her true colors
Looks like our power couple has a lot to deal with...
Thank goodness ep 26 was not as angsty as we thought it would be - Dou Zhao saved it for me! And there is a shiny surprise for those who have not watched it yet!
Started watching this again because of DYX. I struggled with the FL the first time and am still not liking her much this time round. For someone who's supposed to be smart, she is incredibly oblivious. I also do not like how ungrateful she is, even though he has saved her numerous times, and how she feels entitled to use the ML as she wants but shows no appreciation. I am trying to push to ep 15 since folks that her character improved after that.
