Why does episode 10 have machine translation instead of the usual, good one?! đĄ Iâm paying for this on youku, and itâs impossible to understand what is meant in several key scenes, itâs full of errors and misspellings, whatâs up with this?!
it is my first time watching Esther yu drama .my god she is fabulous đâ€ïž. specially today's sence when…
Check out Love Between Fairy and Devil, and also My Journey To You, then! Sheâs also fabulous in them, and theyâre great dramas youâll enjoy! âșïž
Zhang JinRan promised DuanWu to write a poem on pearl divers he fulfilled the promise so soon. A green flag 2nd…
A real green flag would have given her a fair share of the prize for the best poem, after all the whole idea, story, and last two lines were created by her! With that, she could have already bought back her red pearl and her freedom.
in all these types of dramas to me a concubine is just a fancy way of saying the female is the side hoe or mistress…
Only the highest men in the empire were given permission to take another wife as a concubine, so 99 percent of marriages were just one man and one woman. We just focus a lot on the 1% of the past in dramas.
It was actually thought to be a special favor for the wives, as well: the job of selecting concubines usually fell to her, not the husband, and they were supposed to serve her and be her companions (very important considering they were almost never able to leave their courtyards). So she could select girls she liked as friends and enjoyed spending time with. In addition, her health would not be damaged by the endless number of pregnancies a lack of contraception would otherwise have resulted in. So the new concubines would endure the pregnancies, but all the children would still call the main wife mother, as well, and obey her.
Since the marriages in the upper echelons of society were political alliances and not love matches, this was considered a nice arrangement for both husband and wife. And the concubines were able to enjoy a much higher standard of living than they would have had in individual marriages, with better health care and better education opportunities available to their children.
Itâs great so far, not slow at all! At least if you enjoy plots, counter-schemes, and mysteries. The FL is cute and very smart, the ML is hiding his true ninja nature but is very sweet to FL. Plus his dreamy voice! The sets are gorgeous and very immersive.
Another beautiful and smart female lead that's great, I love it when a female lead can turn the table against…
Yes, itâs not an annoying baby voice at all, itâs just a naturally high-pitched voice and Iâm all for accepting peopleâs natural voices! đ„° Plus, I actually like it and find it cute. âșïž
No. She sincerely wants to rescue baby Mo, however she also wasnât sure. But ML believes as he needs hope to…
Not really: today they clarified that itâs a fake prescription she came up with herself. She just made a list of all the wonder cures that are known and might possibly help. After looking at e.g. the fungus, she already could tell that it would not help the baby at all and would only make him worse, she it wonât be used for Mo. The next wonder cure he retrieves might be better or not. But the ML is still risking his life to get each one! And I donât think he would not be able to go on if the baby died. Heâd mourn Mo and be sad, but move on with his life and find happiness again.
I donât know, but it seems to me that the FL is wasting her life by not accepting reality and refusing to move on and find happiness. And sheâs lying to the ML, manipulating him into wasting his life (and risking it!) doing the exact same thing.
Everyone would be much better off accepting the way life is and making the best of it despite of the sadness it can bring. Only by mourning and moving on can they all find new happiness.
Theyâre all still young, so why have this iron death grip on the past, stubbornly insisting to go down with it even though it doesnât benefit anyone? Even the baby is just condemned to more and longer excruciating suffering, and the ML may well die doing the impossible tasks she set for him with her fake prescription.
I really like the MLâs character and donât want him to be manipulated and wasted like this. He is the chief of a sect and has other things to do with his life! Just my two cents. I still like the drama, I just donât approve of what the FL is doing.
Iâm loving this so far! Both ML and FL are extremely smart and likable! Besides, Iâve always loved the Scarlet Pimpernel trope of an ML who pretends to be weak and useless, while being a badass ninja in secret! đ„°
synopsis sounds a sad ending, what shall I do?? I want to watch, but hate to cryyyyyyyyyyy, maybe, hopefully,…
So far, the dialogue featured references to never giving up as long as there is still a ray of hope, and that sometimes, one can make the impossible come true and change even fate like a miracle. So perhapsâŠ
And even if it does end with their deaths - human life is always impermanent anyway, but maybe theyâll have some sweet moments and love each other while it lasts.
hmm the dubcon element doesn't sit right with my spirit but i guess since ruo wen is hot yall brush this offđ
Itâs all so weird, as if getting kidnapped, threatened and raped were light-hearted, funny things that you can/should just shrug off. The 2ML is such a vile, despicable character, so the switch to then suddenly presenting his as a romantic option and a guy you can have funny banter with is so odd. It doesnât work for me AT ALL, the chest muscles do not make up for the personality!
Episode 1I am confused by the attack from the Lord of Tianqu on the Masui group (Huang Bei Shuang and her mother).…
We werenât shown any details: what were the lordâs actual orders? Who was the lord who gave those orders? It also made no sense to kill them since they could have simply refused to let them in. And afterwards, we see the ML all alone in the desert, dying of thirst, looking for that very scroll - if he was really in power in the city at that point, he could have just ordered to let them in or for a hundred men to immediately chase after them. So my guess is that something else happened we donât know about yet.
