I want a sequel with Lin Hao Qing finding his happiness. Even if he dies at the end of this show, they can bring him back to life. Everybody else got brought back to life...
I must sound like a broken record, but I absolutely love the costumes. The accessories for both men and women...Chef's Kiss! So much thought put into it like ChangYi's hair accessory for the wedding...YunHe of course - most beautiful bride I have seen! She is pretty skilled with embroidery ๐๐๐
Right from the beginning, I had great faith in this director. I will not say much here, as we could be analysing…
I just had a horrible thought - Zhu Rui Bin, the director is also known to pull a last minute twist...What if he decides that ChangYi is not going to recover??? I don't think so but... I think it is the third couple that will create last bit of emotional turmoil for the audience
I couldn't believe they left us where they did for a couple days.
I know!!! I thought they would pull a surprise and make everyone super happy by releasing the last two episodes right after, and then Croton would release the English subs for all the episodes (or at least Part 1) immediately!
The show is doing a great job wrapping up the loose ends and tying the story back to the novel...We do not get the underwater scenes but we get one where Chang Yi breaks the rule LOL
I didn't expect to get so emotional these past two episodes ๐ญ
A HE for the Grand Tutor and Ning XiYu. Just like Qing Qi, who tricked Zhu Yan in her final moment, Ning Qing's death was by choice to be with his beloved master. However, I am sad about the 3rd couple ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
Qing qi (Green bird lady)'s happy ending with Ning Ruo Chu
Iโm not sure. Maybe itโs a dream or they both are now angels but at least she died winning by hurting Zhu Yan instead the horrible way she died and her powers used by Shunde in the novel.
I agree. As one who read the novel, I can see where they cut scenes to catch up to where they are now in the drama…
True. They only served a small purpose. Still letโs see how the director surprises us in the end. If it is a good ending then I will forgive him ๐
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it. It was your review of "The Romance of Tiger and Rose" that had got me watching…
๐ Nice talking to you too and thank you for taking the time to read all my ramblings! Yes, Iโm Malaysian Chinese and grew up watching Mandarin dramas. ๐

I agree that the impact is different and i prefer the novelโs version. If not that, I wish that he didnโt hear it from Luo Luo first before Yun He. Itโs less impactful. However the drama is wrapping up the loose ends and I am less afraid of a rushed ending. The story pace is good.
The drama is definitely lighter and they left out the more graphic details. Like you I was more emotional reading the novel but I wonder if it is because my imagination was filling in a lot. Whereas for the drama, I was more watching, less imagining.
So far so good - on episode 5 and I really like the costumes and sets. I love ZLSโ outfits - such pretty colors and styles. YY looks good too but I am not sure about his hair. Iโm sure his look will grow on me ๐. I cannot wait to see the chemistry heat up between them. For now, I can see the interest is one sided and there is this misunderstanding. Enjoying how the story is unfolding
