Does anyone know the English name and which app I can find S02 and S03 with BGM? NetShort, Dramawave, Dramabox, etc., or any YouTube/Rumble link with BGM?
Ep. 8 > When you have such precious things to protect, like the Tree and the wells in your house, who the F decided it was a good idea to set up a Chunin Exam there? Oh yeah, that old hag.
can someone explain to me why between each episode, it feels like we skip over a bunch of scenes??? like how do…
It's a storytelling style where they show a later scene first, then reveal how things reached that point. They moved in together without context, and later we learn that Jiang Zhao wanted her to move in, so she planned everything: getting her kicked out, the cafe closing, the drunk guy, and then saving her.
Nah, I gave my reasons in the same reply. Even though I said I would not engage, I think this one deserves a reply.
A good romance and strong chemistry between the ML and FL do not weaken the ML’s character, plot, or turn him into a doormat.
Here is the copy-paste of my reasons.
I will not engage with fangirls, but I think some explanation is overdue on my part. So here goes nothing.
Tingyun proposed to Zhao Ling herself and asked him to marry her. He ignored thinking, she was doing it out of convenience, not love. Then he asked her those three questions about what kind of couple she wanted them to be. She gave him exactly the answers he wanted, basically confessed her love outright, and they even kissed after the maze game event. But for some strange reason, the marriage was delayed until they reached the capital. Fine. Then they finally reached the capital five years later, and Zhao Ling decided, "No, I'll go down by myself and won't even meet her." Their reunion after five years was unbelievably disappointing and anticlimactic. I genuinely couldn't believe this was what the writers came up with.
Then Tingyun gets mocked for being 24, unmarried, and supposedly unwanted. She practically confesses again by deciding to leave the capital, while Zhao Ling remains completely oblivious at first, as if that is supposed to be funny. Then suddenly he goes to her father, something we are seeing for basically the first time in 21 or 22 episodes, and sits outside in the rain begging for approval. Are you kidding me? The King already approved your marriage, asking for the date. Tingyun changed her family name and has virtually no ties left to that family except her mother. What exactly is this rain performance supposed to prove?
Anyway, that ends, and we are back to salt reforms. Her sister-in-law's brother was suggested as a good guy and a useful aide to Zhao Ling, while Yu Jingxiu, his mortal enemy, was also in line for appointment. Tingyun is helping him politically, even bringing useful people to his side, yet Zhao Ling still acts uncomfortable about it. Which is fine, but then comes the dialogue that completely killed the show for me. Tingyun tells him, essentially, that she does not want him standing alone in the royal court and wants someone beside him. And Zhao Ling coldly replies that if things ever go badly, he will not drag her down with him.
Are you fking kidding me?
She has already chosen you for life. She would die for you without hesitation, yet at every opportunity you push her aside under the excuse of "protecting" her, protecting her reputation, her chastity, or whatever nonsense. She keeps choosing him, confessing to him, supporting him, and fighting beside him, while he keeps treating her like someone who must be kept at a safe distance.

Watched until Episode 23.5. This is the worst romance I have ever watched. My patience has completely run out with Zhao Ling's incompetence as a man and his complete lack of desire, despite the FL trying so hard. His character did a complete 180 after 5 years. Feels like an arrogant bstrd living in his own fantasy world. I feel sorry for Tingyun. Dropped.
Kim Jennie, known simply as Jennie, is a South Korean singer, dancer, actress, and member of BLACKPINK.https://mydramalist.com/people/16338-jennieArtists:…
If Jennie had been in even one Asian drama, even as a guest actress, I would agree. But unfortunately, the only dramas and movies listed on her page are just BLACKPINK documentaries.
And no, I really wouldn't want to see Ado news listed on MDL if there are a few documentaries about her, no matter how big she becomes. MDL made the wrong decision here, like **many others**. But that's fine. It's just one news story; people are probably overreacting.

The majority of K-Pop singers appear in TV shows listed on MDL and probably have a page on MDL because of those shows, but that doesn't mean they belong to drama-related content.
If the logic is that they are celebrities, so it's fine for their news to be posted here, then maybe MDL should start posting all K-Pop-related news as long as there is a link to their people profile. And since I personally love J-Pop, I would also love to see news about my favorite bands here.
The whole DIVORCE writing part was just bad writing, completely unnecessary and overkill. He didn’t even hand…
Just continue and end this suffering. ;) Be grateful that it didn’t take them so long to reunite. Some shows take 6 or 7 episodes just for a simple misunderstanding, and I loathe them.
The whole DIVORCE writing part was just bad writing, completely unnecessary and overkill. He didn’t even hand her the divorce papers, and she isn’t a divorcee either. So don’t take that seriously, because there are many other bad and unnecessary writing choices as well.
As for him leaving her and sending her to the mountains, that part was necessary and very predictable, because there was too much to uncover, and we already knew everyone was dead. The ML had to witness how difficult her life really was and become more appreciative of her. From his POV, she seemed stable, with a grandfather and all those teachers around her, and she only had hallucinations about one friend she had lost.
I'm really getting old because of all these shows. This was such a tear-jerker, but I predicted everything, and that's exactly how it happened. I keep taking the element of surprise and fun away from myself. :'(
South Korea's toxic, obnoxious, fake, and unforgiving celebrity culture is the real culprit in what happened to Kim Sae Ron. She was not the first person pushed to the edge by this deranged society, and sadly, not the last.
bruh? on the contrary the only cdrama i could actually finish was Pursuit of Jade (even that had some flaws but…
You probably haven't watched Joy of Life. It's better than any historical drama out there. Pursuit of Jade is good but just another revenge story, like 99% of them.

Did Tingyun get engaged to a man or a Buddha?
F this show.

I guess that's fair, right?
