...and now we are ready for more CI Sha lead roles! bring them on!!

Totally agree! let's start a poll to see if they will add few final scenes to the series!!!

I must have reached a new level of delulu or Chi Sa is a dark horse of an actor because I am COMPLETELY lapping up the jealousy angst...he is meant to be an older man, on his second marriage, falling for a young, spirited and mesmerizing woman...of course he is going to find it difficult to keep his head straight in the face of her 'youthful love' (which was not him), his adopted nephew betrayal (coveting his wife) and maybe, just maybe a little truth his controlling nature ..as his secretary said..matters of love are harder than political intrigues...I for one have found ep 34 immensely entertaining!!

and even more their lovely skinship after the wedding..so carefree and..modern in a way?...but can anyone help me understand the presence of 'dolls' in bed with them??? those round dolls vaguely reminescent of the theatre masks....

uuhhh i am loving the chemistry between the leads...

...i don't understand...did they sleep together at the beginning of ep 15?? why are they making the skinship so difficult to enjoy?? i really do not understand if it is for cultural or censorship reasons...

...thanks for the honest review...i came to this drama from LOVE STORY IN THE 70S where i think both leads are a lot more honest and straightforward than this mess of a modern take on Cinderella with the FL stressing so much over money that she pushes a good guy away and ...from what you say...a good guy turning into a scheming wreck not voicing his own worries and difficulties...i think i will drop this at ep 12 now...

well said and i agree with wanting to know more about the 'real' history and factual situations (like the earthquake relief efforts) behind the fictional story...and may i say well done China for this exemplary display of soft power???

it's a perfect show to binge and it has so much heart in it, some that will make you cry and more that will make you smile that i really do not understand why more people are not raving about it! i absolutely loved it and Cdramas are a new addition to my asian series passion...watch it!

ooohhh i also am in the same spot of trying to go over ep 2 or 3...i cannot even remember i keep on dropping it...but with POJ withdrawal simptoms still running wild i have to get to the bottom of this other well reviewed acting effort of our most beloved hero..and i must say the FL does not displease me either...so..yeah...good luck to us both on finishing it this time (p.s. i have found that creating a chart of the characters helps with the political plot elements...maybe it will help you too??)

thank you so much...do you think there is a version with eng subs?? i really want to hear his voice and understand what he says...

aaaahhh that makes sense..thank you for helping to tie this last knot...now i am married to this show for life..eh eh eh...

Why in the Top Airing Shows list of MDL, under the chinese section, Pursuing Jade has not appeared once during it airing?? is that not crazy?? it even has one of the highest rating for any drama on the site...i really dont understand....

..and because i am a bit of a boomer can i confirm...on youtube can you listen to the songs even when you switch to another page (like you can with Spotify) or does it stop for everybody and not just for technically impaired me??

this is great, thank you! i am just unsure about one detail...was it Wei Yan who tried to kill Marquis Wu'an at the very beginning of the series? i don't think that detailed got cleared at all...

read the novel, do a full rewatch...and repeat..eh eh eh...

..talking of the OST...why don't i seem to find a full list of songs on Spotify? all the ones labelled 'pursuit of jade OST' only have one of the main songs (the intro i think) and then a whole loads of other songs from other dramas...If anyone has the full OST for Spotify could you please share? maybe it needs to be searched in chinese? (which i cannod do....)

director is a certified genius!

the play on traditional roles is absolutely a mastermind for so many charachters in this drama! not one of them sticks to a cliche' of his or her sex/role for too long...they cross boundaries, forge alliances, strike new deals and conquer new hearts (in battle and in house centric duties like cooking and mending)...absolutely mastermind!
