you're right

you're absolutely right

that's it, I'm done
this drama is an insult to me as a man
one question from ding yuxi, are you yourself ok with this kinda humiliation for your character? keep being rejected over and over and over?
is this really an equal dynamic in a relationship?
will this relationship work if one person keeps begging the other to pleeeeeease accept me?
one reminder these are not happening 3 to 5 eps in the drama to say oh they're getting to know each other and it's cute NO these are happening 20 to 30 EPISODES in the drama when they've been through all kinda hardships together

because c-dramas only talk about equality, they can't walk their talk and the reason for this one is most of their target audience are women. they want to elevate women by putting men down which is wrong

ep19 , ML says I'll give you the world and everything you want, FML says I don't want to pay the price of this relationship I'm out. no problem with that, it's her choice and it's ok.
what is not OK is ML saying I'm not giving up untill you agree. in this situation either his behavior is obsession which is harmful and must be avoided or she is playing hard to get in a serious situation which is still harmful and extremely childish for two grown ups, or both(my opinion this is the right answer)
for once in ALL the c-dramas that I've watched I hope to see the ML after being rejected to say alright wish you the best and goodbye. no this NEVER happens. if the situation was reversed the FML would definitely do this. it NEVER happens when a FML is rejected (not in the first or second eps) to still be pressistent and why is that? because woman have a life and womens life shouldn't solely be based on love and relationships. this is the logic of ENTIRE c-dramas.
for men, no. we don't have a life. in this dramas MLs are born to be in love with FMLs and be on their back and call.
RIDICULOUS double standards

ep11
Hong Yi orders fugui to go to that village (which Zhang Qi had built) and kills every demon which all of them are innocents.
seems like there is no logical reason behind his drastic change and behavior then this really is a big loophole for the story

I'm on ep10
I truly can't feel their connection
I sense nothing between them and everyone in the drama says oh so you have feelings for each other...
no chemistry at all untill now
btw both of the leads are great actors (I KNOW that)
AND since WHEN Hong Yi wants every single demon dead? he wasn't like that before, not even after all his friend was killed he still wasn't like that
I need a very very strong reason for his behavior or I consider this a big loophole in the drama

so true

true, I agree

their story was beautiful, all three evil so I didn't care who would win or die among them but their story was beautiful
most may see xi yang as innocent victim, she was NOT. everything was her own choice and consequences of those choices from beginning to the end. she loved someone he didn't love her back, she KNEW he doesn't even like her BUT she went with him, finally when she understood that he's not gonna change his mind she hated him and wanted to kill him and even kills irrelevant people, this is NOT the story of a VICTIM this a story of a VILLAIN in almost every dramas that I've seen who has a crush on main leads. NOW because this person is MLs sister we can't call her a villain? ridiculous. this the part that I didn't like about their story

the story of xia jingshi xi yang and xia jungyan

true

the characters are good but in critical moments they suddenly become idiots
he was dumb and irresponsible enough to reject the crown once which resulted in that massacre, I can NOT believe he did it AGAIN and to make it worse he made XI YANG the ruler?? WHAT? a kid that has been spoiled toooooo much since birth and an idiot person who betrayed EVERYONE? the girl doesn't understand what's right and what's wrong all she did in jixing was schemes and not for a good cause and her ways were evil and now she wants to be empress:) good luck with that
xia Jingshi was one step behind to win it all and he gave it up to kill FS. that's another decision that I will not accept. I KNOW obsession is strong in some people, but considering everything I don't think his obsession was that strong for FML.
endings are very important in deciding wether a drama is good or not, this ending ruined the drama from being good to a time waster
I wasted my time on this and I regret it

the single dumbest ending ever in all the c-dramas that I've watched

It's interesting that I said 3 sentences and you guessed what I was thinking and thought your guess MUST be right
I too like the story, I like the FML, BUT does a woman who is ready to sacrifice that much for the man she loves say that, this the writer speaking 'i choose myself'
Do you even KNOW what he asked him??? He didn't ask would you like to be my caged bird, he asked who do you choose me or JB? What are you even talking about? What goes on your mind?
There are million ways she could've answered one of the easiest ones is'yes I choose JB'
What do you mean she choose herself by not telling the truth? She didn't tell the truth because she didn't want JB to think she was only with him because of the cure
YOUR TEXT IS FULL OF ERRORS ABOUT THE ORIGINAL PLOT and you want to talk about idealistic with me?
Is 'ML barking like dog to FML and the FML ignoring him' evolution to you? It's NOT. It's swinging to the opposite extreme.
Do you want me to tell you what my thoughts are on SML? Easy, from the first moment he tried to hit on a married woman I felt nauseous I knew then he is sick but then again the writer tried to show his affection as innocent and acceptable UNITILL he needed a new villain in ep30 so turned him into a true villain (which he already was)
One more question from you:
can you accept a man in the same situation says something like that?
can you accept a ML 30 eps in the drama STILL playing hard to get not to flirt or fun but real and still lost in his feelings and don't know what to do and being cold towards FML?
If you really are, then I REALLY have no problem with you it means you don't have double standards and you treat men and women equal, all good 👍

does throwing insults makes you feel better? who do you think are you to say I hate women?
I do agree with you that the WRITER wrote this drama for women BUT should he/she do that?where does in the description for the drama say for women only?
can you accept a man in the same situation says something like that?
can you accept a ML 30 eps in the drama STILL playing hard to get not to flirt or fun but real and still lost in his feelings and don't know what to do and being cold towards FML?
how has Ji Bozai treated her except showering her with love, affection and kindness?? this is the exact example that even if SOME(not all) of you women have someone like JB you will NEVER be satisfied

can you accept a man in the same situation says something like that?
can you accept a ML 30 eps in the drama STILL playing hard to get not to flirt or fun but real and still lost in his feelings and don't know what to do and being cold towards FML?
when I say selfish I mean these things SUCH FML is not a good character, if you right something bad about past you can't do the exact opposite thing to become what you hate, you have to keep the balance

she didn't say it in first 5 or 10 eps where it could've been acceptable, she said it almost 30 eps into the drama, there goes your excuse for her out of the window and NO it's not OK even if a ML lead says something like that when they've been through hell like that
FMLs who have this way of selfish thinking and MLs who bark like dog whenever FML looks at them are a trend in nowadays c-dramas

I dare any male lead in any c-drama when a love interest tells him will you choose me or the FML in around ep30 in the drama to say I'll choose myself:)
how selfish can you be to say something like that?
the double standards are going through the roof
