They might as well serve Nanxia to Beimo on a silver platter. They have an emperor who is incompetent at best…
"Maybe they both should take over their countries, get married and unite as one." Man, I can only dream of a world in which the scriptwriters have the guts to write something like that. It would be epic.
Looks like another drama I might have to drop going by the recent episode comments. I'm just really disappointed…
It's been my nightmare for years: they shout about a strong female lead, show you how badass she is... and then turn her into a moron who must ask for permission to breathe as soon as she falls in love. Exhibits one and two: The Song of Glory and The Legends. I was hoping this would be the exception to the rule, but it doesn't seem like it. I'm so tired of this bs.
there are so many scenes that have been cut out or is it just IQiyi? Im on episode 9 and it's unbearable
Yes, I noticed it as well. I wouldn't say it's unbearable, but it does lead to inconsistencies and plot holes. Like the door being open when she was bathing even though we saw her close it tightly five minutes earlier...
Why? Can i know why? Because i'm more excited after the trailers
For me, it's the way they're treating this as a comedy when there was so much potential for a serious, heart-wrenching show (which is made all the more interesting given the role reversal). Especially with KSH as ML, he's a fantastic actor.
You might be in the same boat as I. Whenever I watch dramas these days at least a quarter of the time I'm trying…
"I fear I've watched too many dramas..." Dude, same. I have no patience left for idiocy and manufactured conflict, it's now a miracle if I can finish a drama...
Omg this is beautiful. 2ML hugging scene! I really wished they did more a direct translation of the Chinese series…
What would the Chinese title translate to? I think those "love something", "legend of whoever" and so on are stupid, too, and it's especially jarring here. It makes the show sound so corny when it's everything but.
It's just two very small similiarities, and I wouldn't even say the ML counts, since FX is super clever while this one is just mediocre at best and barely has any personality to begin with.
Now a days, they like to make the King in messy look. It's a trend now....just like JOF's King.🤣🤣🤣. Too…
I think it's an excellent way to show how secure he is in his power. His rule is so absolute he doesn't even need to attend court or put up appearances.
Yes, it’s a bit strange, especially since we were told in the first episode that his mother organised for him…
She arranged for him to get martial arts training from supposed masters whom we only got to see get kicked around. It's the usual misogyny at play, I think, insofar as in dramas, women, even trained, rarely are equal to or even superior to men in martial arts (even if those men are thoroughly untrained). What it amounts to, however, is three "masters" who aren't that good after all, fall like flies, and can't have taught him much that was all that useful. Especially since we saw him struggling against one of them in the first episode. That alone should be enough to tell you how weak he is.
Man, I can only dream of a world in which the scriptwriters have the guts to write something like that. It would be epic.
