Wow. It’s only 36 episodes…. That’s super surprising. Super happy Mainland productions are evolving and progressing. Hopefully it won’t be some shitty editing.
I’ve rewatched this a couple of times…. Still a 10 for me. So many life lessons to learn… esp for a female.…
Just like Love Like the Galaxy…. Whereby I would like to strangle and disown the mother…. Over here I’d like to strangle and disown the father….. both characters are so……. Realistic and real…. Yes, perhaps a tad exaggerated BUT I assure you… they most defo exist more often than not in Asian families. Kudos to the author of the novel and screenwriters. ❤️❤️❤️
For those wanting more details on certain scenes in the series i.e more on Hai Shi’s background, interactions with the Sheng Family and her importance, more on Hualan’s life in her husband family and more on wot happens in the He + Cao family after Ming Lan etc etc…. Please do read the novel… it’s actually worth the read. I was super curious.

So many life lessons to learn… esp for a female. Lol, I actually think guys should also watch this, so many things for them to learn too…. 🤣🤣🤣 as much as it’s on the extreme end and not exactly applicable to current times because it portrays sucha patriarchal society (and also superb family oriented which might not be applicable to all cultures/races) but a lot of instances/scenarios still hold true in the modern society now. Wished I got to watch this when I was like 15-16 yrs old…. Probably would have changed a lot of my outlook on life.
Sword and Brocade. Not as good, but very similar gist and messages. Main theme is regarding family politics as…
It’s called “Legacy”… ☺️ sorry, the way I said it was a bit confusing. It is a family politics drama with the backdrop being laced with political instability/war times.

I have another one… this one is more of a hidden gem, lesser known… BUT….. there is a huge like historical/war theme going on…. So… I don’t know…. If it suits you… coz I really dislike war movies/shows but surprisingly I watched through all of it…
Have you watched Legacy? The score in MDL isn’t high… but I really think it’s worth the watch. Also family politics, but this is basically based off real life Soong sisters…
Excuse me but this guy suffered or he is still suffering from bone cancer. That is the reason why he was exempted…
It wasn’t malignant though. His agency released an official statement saying it was benign in 2017…. But I think there’s more to the story… because they aren’t party drugs… and marijuana has medical uses…. So…. Would have to wait for the official results of the investigation. I found the news pretty surprising as well… he’s really talented. Hopefully all goes well for him and Netflix would still release his works.
The little boy who played Ning Xiang was wow….. he was good. Also…. I actually wished the FL:-
Gave the 2nd ML a chance. I actually wished she did go out with the dude…. In a way I do actually think both of them are more compatible with one another….. but I think the theme here is like “one and only love”… or like first love for a female….
Have to admit, the entire production was superb engaging and addictive for the first 30 episodes…. I literally started this with no expectations. I stopped at Ep 30, FF the last episode and yea, was a tad ridiculous… to be super specific, it’s actually the last 3-4 episodes which were super random.
I think many times the actors don’t get to make all the decisions in the project like the producer, writer &…
Not only that. They literally killed the whole thriller plot. The conclusion to the plot was so lame….. I was like wot the…… And true enough, once the ending was released…. The score on Douban went to shambles. And I was so pissed I actually went to read the novel.
And shitz….. the whole plot in the novel was just as ridiculous, no wonder…… I totally got conned. Like throughout the drama I actually thought the thriller plot was one of the most brilliant ones I’ve ever watched. At least for white collared crimes.
Will take a look at the ones you mentioned, thanks!
I’m scared…. How bad was the last 6 episodes? I’m on the first episode now and I’m surprised it’s so…
Lol…. That sounds so typical like a Peng Guan Ying drama. Ok, will give it a try and then prob skip last 6 episodes to just look at the ending. Thanks.
Some people are so harsh on this drama. If you watch it from #1 - #30 then it’s a good drama. Many people put…
I’m scared…. How bad was the last 6 episodes? I’m on the first episode now and I’m surprised it’s so damn good. .. was it even a HE? The previous Peng Guan Ying drama I watched I wanted to flip tables with the ending….
Daaaaaaaaaamn this is sooo good hahah! From ep 3 (30) onwards (am at ep 7 (34) rn) my favourite character is Consort…
She was so damn good, like I literally noticed the actress for the first time here. She totally brought the character to life. I actually went to look at her profile coz I wanted to watch her other works…. But I didn’t really find anything interesting.
