If she felt only indebted then she would just concentrate on his leg, help his family. But she hugs him, keeps…
I keep expecting any of Ryan Cheng's characters to turn nasty on me so I am always just a step from stepping away from his dramas. I first noticed him as the sadistic brother in one of those historical female assassin drama. The male was ZLH and the female was that baby voiced actress. Can't remember the main couple or their ending but remembered him. I don't watch enough his dramas where he is actually nice and dependable. So keep expecting him to turn psycho or revengeful. So I am currently suspicious whenever he is on screen so didn’t notice if Ye Li even likes him. I know she is currently platonic and just nice. I am on episode 9.

I don't know if she is touched deprived. Or sensory deprived. Everyone she loved is actually dead and she sounds as if she was alone for years. That's why there is isolation/ solitary confinement in prison. That's why it was used as a torture method.

She has deprived of anyone she can open up to and also no physical touch- except the 2 months before marriage.

This looks like a standard Cdrama about marriage, politics, revenge but then the writers added all the psychological elements. I hope they researched it well so the ending rationales are plausible.

To be honest I have been bored with Bai Lu's female characters in the last few dramas. They are all the same. However I actually like Ye Li's character the best in the last 2 years or so of dramas.

Just read your post. Gotta give you credit for sharing your stuff. It is almost like a food journal. You do sound…
My cooking is edible good enough to feed a crowd without people complaining. I am not quite a degustation or deconstruction sort of diner although I have done both. I was at Gyeongdong market just a couple of months ago and that market had an extensive selection of fresh vegetables including greens. I have eaten purslane greens as well so the wild herb bimbimbap episode was interesting.

That cast is skewed so male- centric that the sole
actress
must be
lonely. Its
not as if
they are
filming in
an urban setting. I wonder where the filming site is.

All I have talked about this week are Japan's egg sandwiches! 😋
Lol. Why? I like it. They do a curried egg sandwich here in Australia. It makes my stomach churn just seeing it with sliced iceberg lettuce.

Luckily the drama has ended because it was easier to marathon. Well acted and directed.


The school life section was extremely well done because I liked everyone. However I did not like it enough for 90% of the drama.

Having said that since they resolved all the issues the last 2 episodes being short made narrative sense even though I didn’t like it being so short. We all know what happened to them because EVERYONE knew what happened to them. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Geez. Talk about suppressed emotions. That phone call to her BFF about their meeting? That was funny. Thank god they did some proper kissing scenes to make up for that slow burn.

This has still been an extremely classy school romance. I have seen so many crass dramas. This literally had 2 good looking and clever leads. At least they didn't make one dumb and dense main character. Its one of the better and well written school drama. As a romance drama... that was kinda slow burn then it combusted.

I am going to leave the thinking to the writer and director and just enjoy the episodes.

I am just in continual astonishment that a simple time travel drama has turned out to be one of the most memorable drama I accidentally watched. I knew Im Ji Yeon was a great actress from way back but Heo Nam Jun is just one phenomenal actor. Those 2 together makes me think they can conquer the world.

It was not in the book. No one can tell till we they show in the drama. FL's name is Yeli. The drama's name is…
You make sense and now I feel very sad. She mentioned the main in ep 8 but we don't see her. There is 1 Lishan academy guy who is also plotting revenge with her.

The OP is confusing me.

YeLi said her mother died even before arriving at Lishan academy.

The academy was closed up and she is exacting revenge on behalf of the scholars. Where in the world did we get to the point where all the scholars and students are dead? The Imperial guards are still surrounding the academy.

Is this a mass murder conspiracy drama? Did I miss something?

Episodes are always late on Viki. On we tv we'll have the episode 8 but only if you get the express package.What…
I have Netflix and viki. Its enough for me. I won't get any work done or sleep if I subscribe to the Chinese stations.

Yeah viki is useful for multiple languages. I just keep up with my 500 subs every 6 months to keep my viki subscription.

Oh I know its late. However I couldn't work out if episodes 7 and 8 were released separately. I prefer viki only because its easier to fast forward and there is consistent video quality.

Is anyone keeping track of release times? Is it 1 release daily?

I have a viki subscription and prefer to watch it there. I have ep 8 available- according to MDL- at 1900hrs my timezone. I presume it will be on viki soon after.

What confused me is that ep 7-8 was supposed to be uploaded today but I could find ep 7 on streaming sites this morning.

Needless to say I am kinda addicted otherwise I would wait for it to be uploaded onto viki.

Not reading. Not reading. I haven’t read any comments except that one question about hair colouring. I didn’t read the reviews. Only the scores.

Do I start?

I am currently or don't have any Chinese drama to watch except The First Jasmine.

Who is the girl she keeps seeing? Did she swap places with someone so now she keeps seeing her or is she hallucinating…
I seemed to have missed something. So not the flashbacks which is definitely her but there are other flashbacks involving a dead maid?

Lol. You have high standards then. I just watched it and moved on.

I can live with AI. In fact I wish they would use AI with the any riding scenes. Did you see them making the horses rear? Then any scene where I see horses fall.

The plot transition was quite clunky in episode 7. We have obviously moved to a new plot..

I hope the director does a better job switching any future storyline. The resolution from the previous was too simple. One doesn't just snap out of 8 years of depression
