That is great news! I never expected a second season, however at the end of the first series I remember wanting to see more of these characters and spend more time with them. To me, that is enough for a second season, it doesn't need to top the previous story but simply allow us to see where the characters go.
A drama with both Bae Doona AND Lomon? I'm in! Oh wait-- it says the rating is NC-17. That seems WAY too violent for me. But on MDL it's TV-14. Can anyone tell me what is the real NC-17 part, and can I skip that part?
For reference, I made it through Moving, and the Witch movies and tv show The Tyrant, all of which are WAY too violent but I was able to skip and not take the violence too seriously.
This could totally have a sequel! But since it's been 5 years it seems unlikely, right? I'm new to Japanese dramas so I don't know that the sequel scene looks like.
I'm re-watching this, and it looks like iqiyi (I'm in US) has switched the order the beginning eps to the new…
Whaat? I started re-watching it a few weeks ago so I missed the re-organization. I like the way I first saw it, so I'll need to re-watch later to see the new changes.
This drama has skyrocketed to be one of the only xianxia dramas I could enjoy, joining Lost You Forever (which isn't really a cultivation story like this), and the Untamed (which has no match in terms of genre I could find). The thing with xianxia/cultivation that WORKS in this story is that the worldbuilding and magic rules are explained--you can see how someone has power, what the limitations are, how to use it against enemies, and how all the magic rules work. It even explores the idea of how deathly boring "ascension" would be as an immortal.
Watching this drama for the first time explained to me some of the rules of cultivation/power in The Untamed, which was the first C-drama I'd ever watched and captivated me despite not understanding most of the magic rules.
Of course the best thing about Love of the Divine Tree are the actors, Deng Wei and Julia Xiang, as well as all the supporting cast, which kept me engaged from the beginning. But all the things I listed above that succeeded in this drama helped me to enjoy it despite, and even because of, its xianxia genre.
Yeah, I'm wondering if this is even real. I really liked the main actress and Richards Wang, I can't get parts of this story out of my head, so I'd be happy to see a meaningful movie side-story (meaningful, not extraneous).
Episode 2 was so good! Soohyuk is so striking and mesmerizing that everyone feels the same way. It's nice that he's showing a little more of himself on this show.
Okay guys, I've seen it in theatres! Amazing to see it in the US. This is my first real exposure to the Condor Heros' stories, though I did watch half of the 2017 series. I'm wondering which adaption tells this particular story since it made me want to learn more about it in depth. My tiny knowledge from the beginning of the 2017 series did help fill in some backstory to this movie. The actors were great, especially Xiao Zhan and Sabrina Zhuang.
