I see the ratings dropped. Real pity. A gem, I’m my opinion. I read the reviews on this site and it is clear that this is one of those: you love it or you hate it; nothing in between. I’m in the love it camp. Anyway, the plot thickens, can’t wait for tomorrow, now I’m hooked :).
For people who did not immediately love it or took a while to warm up to it, around what episode did you start…
I took time to absorb what is going on, already episode 1 got me hooked. With the masterly worked out ceremony of the sacrifice of the tribute ladies. And the music/theme supporting that.
So, right from the get-go Story demands that Xiao Duo is nobility/royalty/aristocracy. He is a eunuch. Yinlou…
Many thanks for taking time to write this up. I don’t know where the story goes to, but I felt from episode 1 that we see only the very very tip of the proverbial iceberg. I sense we are still in the setting the scene modus and we will be blown away at some point and go back to various episodes to confirm and reconfirm the new facts. Can’t wait. Thanks again.
Binged it first time again after last summer. What an epic drama! Rewatch value 10. And unfortunately not many dramas have serious rewatch value. But this time around was even better. Bawled my eyes with tears, sometimes happy, sometimes sad. Brilliant. Perhaps rewatch in six months or so.
Au my eyes hurt, the ML is so beautiful. Also the smile of the FL is worth millions. Such a nice little story, happy it is there. Hope the best for the actors, they r doing a good job.
Lord the negativity surrounding the drama is at this level ! Earlier I saw a lil article posted by a drama blogger…
I don’t understand the negativity at all. I’m enjoying the drama and now I can’t wait for tomorrow to come. Honestly, what did people expect? Dylan is good, and Yukee is the best I’ve seen from her so far. Anyway, I don’t care about the ratings and ranting and am looking forward to the episode tomorrow and the day after , the trailers promise some nice interaction.
Btw the blurred dish looked like a pile of fried shrimps . So what’s the story behind the shrimps? If they would have been cherries, I would understand 🙃

Yesterday when i checked it was 8.7 and OMG now it is 8.1 what did just happen? There is more than 20 episodes…
Sad. Most probably expected another LBFAD. And / or the trailer made them believe it is a different kind of story (however, the comedy was in there already). The series has 36 episodes and I still feel they are setting the scene. I expect the unexpected to unfold as we progress. Still like it a lot, including the shenanigans of Yukee:). The story ain’t over until the proverbial fat lady sang.

And of course, the mandatory ring.
