Another great drama where the directors are really doing their jobs magistrally!!! it's a she/he tandem and they…
The director is a legend. Quite a number of the cdramas we consider classics are her works. Sames go for the writer, a number of notable titles in her bag.
All in all it's a strong crew, and it was totally worth the wait.
one doubt in episode 13 why did she order men to assaninate her from zhengyi temple?i couldnt understand...
To force Mo Xiuyao to let her treat his leg. As we saw earlier in the story, dude was pretty devastated at the fact that he couldn't protect her during the chase.
Hard agree. Just these production and directing choices alone stand out so much already. I was also feeling fatigued…
It truly is the case...
Now, whenever I want to rewatch something to wind down, my go-to dramas are something like The Story of Minglan, where I can just let myself go with the flow. That's probably one of the reasons why TFJ instantly hits the home run for me as well.
Because she doesnt want to say master zhu left mountain ...linshan academy folks are forbiddened from leaving…
This is this, and that is that. Empress Dowager has close personal relationship with Ye Li's mom, and seems to be close with Ye Li when she was young as well.
But, politics and power is a separate matter. She needed to make an example to consolidate her power back then, because Lin Shang Academy which has disciples everywhere is opposing her path to power.
Well, Wu Zetian did exactly that in Chinese history and became the only female Empeor of a dynasty. I assume this…
I mean, I was responding to OP's question about 'how Guo Jin can set an eye to the throne'. I simply provided an example from real history as a precedent. Gou Jin doesn't need to be an exact recreation of Wu Zetian. It's not a drama about Wu Zetian after all.
Mo Jing Li said Guo Jin ( I suppose Empress D ) had an eye on throne, but can someone other than heir of Emperor…
Well, Wu Zetian did exactly that in Chinese history and became the only female Empeor of a dynasty. I assume this Empress Dowager was inspired from Wu Zetian.
Currently on episode 6, so still far too early for me to say anything meaningful about the story itself. Cautious…
Hard agree. Just these production and directing choices alone stand out so much already. I was also feeling fatigued by all the bright colors and noisy elements in recent dramas. This really is a nice change of pace for me, taking me down the nostalgic lane of earlier cdramas.
All in all it's a strong crew, and it was totally worth the wait.
'Are you sure about that play?' is one of the most savage taunts you can throw during a game haha

For this drama, recommend to watch till ep 4-5 to fully grasp the stories and characters.
But, let's see how it'll develop further.
