I just started this drama and I’m only 15 minutes into ep. 1, but I’m already annoyed by her greedy and shameless in-laws. Which episode is she getting the divorce? 😂 I think I can't handle too many annoying characters in the beginning of a drama... If she's not divorced yet in the first 5 eps, I might start this drama later 😅
I've binge-watched the rest of the episodes up to ep. 16 and still really love it! ❤️ I got through the episodes so quickly that now I'm suffering the agony of waiting for new ones every day 😭 I didn't expect to enjoy this drama as much as I do, so I thought I'd built up a decent backlog before starting. Clearly, I was wrong... should've waited longer to start haha
That said, I feel like the show is slowly starting to introduce unnecessary cliché misunderstandings. For instance, Xu Yue and Xue Chen have always been so honest and cooperative with each other especially regarding Mu Xuan Ling. But now, Xu Yue didn't tell Xue Chen about the Disillusion Water that made Xuanling forget her emotions.
Why leave Xue Chen in the dark? This feels like a forced conflict and it’s frustrating to see the characters acting out of character just to create drama. One of the things I loved the most was how open and truthful Xue Chen and Xu Yue were with each other, so this really irks me. Things will happen which could've been prevented...
Even if Xue Yue knows what fate awaits Xue Chen and Xuan Ling... it makes no sense that he's keeping his knowledge about the Disillusion water. Or are they making Xu Yue a villain? I would hate that so much >_< He's such a unique 2nd lead... I don't want to turn him into cliché 2ML ...
Is there a reasonable explanation for why Nan Xu Yue wouldn’t tell him? Or is this just the writers forcing a plot device? 🤔
Xuan Ling: Mr, Xie, your bed breaks to easily. Next time, get a sturdier one. Xue Chen: The bed couldn't handle much force. I really should get a sturdier one.
LOL I love them and how Xue Chen was playing along hahaha And Clan Elder devastating reaction afterwards. That was such a funny scene xD
Started this drama and watched the first 9 episodes... and I LOVE IT! My gosh, this is so good! How is the rating so low? I don't even like Xianxia genre that much and enjoyed maybe 2-3 Xianxias, that I've watched in the past. This one is really good! And I ADORE the FL! She's so spunky and charming! There are so many interesting characters in this one!
Not sure how this drama will develop, but so far I really, really like it and it's the drama that I look forward to the most right now ❤️
He was criticized for one of his historical dramas ( not sure if it's the last one he did but I think so ) for…
Too modern? That makes no sense at all... There are so many actors/actress with quite visible PS who star in historical drama, which looks "modern" to me. Well, I don't need to understand east-asian weird appearance standards lol
I like this drama for being odd and having a unique plot. I know a few nerdy people around me, who are just as passionate about things, which may sometimes seem weird to us "non-science" people, but it's actually so lovely to see their eyes sparkle when they talk about it. So I didn't find it weird at all, when Eve was gushing over fruit flies mating. I found it as charming as Gong Ryong actually haha 😂
I guess having none to little expectations going into this, really helped me to enjoy this drama much more than most viewers did. I started this mainly because of Gong Hyo Jin. I've loved a lot of her previous dramas and felt she has a keen eye for unique scripts and quirky characters. So I'm gonna lay my trust on her.
I understand that this might not be everyone's cup of tea, but coming back here every few hours to comment how much you dislike it, is much weirder than the drama itself.
I'm so frustrated rn cause I just started watching S2 and I feel like an alien trying to decipher whatever they're…
It's been so long that I've forgotten about this drama. Really sad, that the subs still suck after all these years. I would've picked it up and even rewatched S1 if they had better subs now. I think I've never watched S2 because of that... :'(
Don't you think you're a bit cringe too? You've already dropped this drama, but keep coming back here to hate…
Well, great for you. But even tho you already dropped it, you still decide to come here every few hours to comment on it. Your life must be a turd too for you to be so passionate about a turd 😂
Cringe. At least we now know why it's been sitting in post production for a year - the reason we all feared but…
Don't you think you're a bit cringe too? You've already dropped this drama, but keep coming back here to hate on it. You're more passionate than the people who actually enjoy it. I salute you! It's always viewers like you, who hype dramas the most. Keep going haha ~ ❤️
I thoroughly enjoyed the first two episodes and am already hooked! The plot feels incredibly unique. I've personally never seen anything quite like this. While I’m unsure how realistic any of it might be, I’m just here to enjoy the ride. The production quality is outstanding so far!
The characters also feel fresh, with no clichés in sight yet. I’m aware that both leads are in relationships with others, which might make their romance controversial for some viewers due to its risky and morally complex nature. However, this is a drama and it’s clear that Gong Ryong didn’t truly understand what real love was until meeting Eve. Not that it justifies anything, but you can see him slowly falling for Eve even within these first two episodes.
I’m really excited to see how their romance unfolds. The morally ambiguous angle adds complexity, and I can’t resist a good dose of angst!
Also I love the OST at the end of the eps! Pls tell me, is the OST out yet? I want to listen to it asap :D
