No, this is not a straight historical, it has some fantasy elements. I'd start with Love Like the Galaxy or A Dream of Splendor, just historical drama that doesn't require much suspension of disbelief.

I just watched the preview for ep14 and I'm surprised at the fast pace of revelation for a cdrama.

I am so sad about him retiring. Now I'll never get to see a dream collab between him and Dilraba, always thought they'd make a beautiful pair.

I agree, felt like they phoned in the last 2 eps. They were so boring I kept pausing to go do other things.

I really want to watch this for handsome CXX, but I can tell it's another mediocre Victoria Song modern drama. I think she needs to stop doing romance and try something else.

It's a pretty forgettable remake of OSN, which I already found forgettable. BUT I think the Chinese version did a better job with the characterization of the parents. In OSN, the rich dad is an asshole just because he's rich, but at least in this drama the rich dad is an asshole because he obviously looks down on the working class family and already has a rich bride lined up for his son. And I prefer a gambling addict dad over a dad who tolerates his daughter being abused by her husband to save face.

I am pretty much just watching this because ML is so handsome and his styling is on point. There are usually always some weird suits or outfits in Chinese office dramas, but so far everyone is dressed nicely.

I just happened to watch One Spring Night a few weeks ago on Netflix because I ran out of dramas to watch. It was ok, but I didn't like the whole stigma around being a single parent. I could tell from just the trailer that this drama is a remake, even with a same exact scene, but does it still have a single parent storyline, and if it does, is it presented as some hurdle?

I found this drama much more enjoyable than its prequel Ancient Love Poetry which put me to sleep a lot, maybe it's because I love Zhao Lusi. I just wish there were more scenes of the couples actually being a couple.

This drama is available on MAX (formerly HBO MAX) in the US.

Did we ever get an explanation of why/how the master-servant covenant broke?

I'm rooting for the princess and marquis, so he can love someone he can have and be less psycho. But it was also nice to see playboy Shishan in action. He is so charming and cute.

Very crazy yet satisfying revenge soap opera, full of all the usual kdrama tropes but still totally hooked me.

The only things missing from the ending were seeing dad’s and emperor’s reaction to the wedding. They both knew XW was into Ning before she did.

“Toxic vampire gege” LOL

The conflict was not properly set up at all. I’m totally not feeling it. They just seemed like two people who were attracted to each other from the get go no matter what she intended.

I just realized the actor who plays General Pei Junior also played Xu Kai's best friend in She and Her Perfect Husband. No wonder he looked so familiar.

Did they explain how ML figured out FL was lying about being a concubine and I missed it? I feel like he just realized it without any actual reveal...

I don't understand the FL. The problem is really not that big a deal. Wanting a hot, rich boyfriend as revenge against your cheating ex is a non-issue. If he were an old windbag, she would have never gone after him.

Wow, awful relatives and spineless parents. My blood really boils with the FL. I'm looking forward to everyone getting their comeuppance.
