I really enjoyed seeing all the characters and actors/actresses again. Although I'm not typically a fan/groupie of any celebrities or shows, I make an exception for this one.

The first 3 minutes of ep1 special edition are important. No joke. They adapted the novel.

Guilty! At least 3 digits for Ep7 the poem and ep27 the 300 poems. Full drama, 4-5 times

Come clean. How many times did you binge-watch the entire series, and how often did you re-watch individual episodes?

This is trailer 2. But trailer 3 just got out

THIRD TEASER RELEASED!!

https://fb.watch/rYfeJicKAy/?

the author writes e-novels, the more chapters, the more paid. And no library in the novel. Exactly like JoL special edition first 3 minutes

I am not sure about rumours, but if, at a press conference, it was mentioned as a trilogy, I guess they produced more than S2. If so, they probably did submit S3 or after editing sometime this year.
Crossed finger no later than next year

With 746 chapters it is inevitable. But the Transmigration change was a happy surprise.
Watching the S2 teaser, I think they changed also the fate of the brother. I guess the “brothel” part in the novel didn't go through lolll

I know right? I had the same question!

China on demand announced it on their site. Viki shared S1 so it is pretty much a sure thing they will offer S2. But no mention about iquyi

I was pleasantly surprised to see that the modern introduction and ending were removed from Season 1 of the show. I am happy that the show is sticking to the novel. I have a good feeling that Season 2 will end with a bang and I have a good idea which one. I assume that when the creators submitted Season 1, they were concerned about censorship issues. The topics of time travel and reincarnation can be sensitive and difficult to handle with censorship.

S3 confirmed was a happy confirmation. But the S2 lead that direction. So yay!

I agree with the statement. The dramas produced between 2014 and 2018 focused more on palace politics and had a different acting style. However, these days, the focus has shifted towards Wuxia Xianxia and shows featuring childish female leads and too many time travel with BE and SE.

Despite this, there are still some excellent shows such as JoL, Ming Lan, and New Life Begins. It's interesting to see this transition in the industry. Personally, I enjoy both generations of dramas, except for the ones with poorly acted childish female leads, which I cannot stand.

I have a fondness for seasoned actors and actresses :)

This was done to end season 1 with a bang; it does not exist in the novel. I bet S2 will also ends with a similar false death

I am glad they changed to fit the novel better. I hope they had the same goal for S2 S3. I didn’t like when they change the fate of Teng Zi.
They twisted also few characters personalities and events..

My main concern is physical appearance. And the reason is simple: I do not check their bio when I am watching a drama. I am watching their performances. It is visual. It's a fact that a man over 45 years old will never look as youthful as a 25-year-old, and a woman in her mid-twenties will never look as mature as a woman in her 30-40s.

Unfortunately, production companies tend to prefer young and fresh-faced actresses. It's commonly known that actresses over 35 years old don't often get the lead roles, except for very popular ones. On the other hand, if male actors are still physically attractive, they tend to get the main role.

This is an unfair and biased situation, but it's the truth. However, I don't care about this age gap unless the acting performance or the lack of chemistry is too obvious.

Yes we saw her in typical red attires plus story is at the capital, not in the north. But I do not think she will have much outside of this. This story is not a romance.

Not on weTV 😭
