Kinara

Yes he did - a lot of his actions were always driven by what others did to him and then they labeled him as evil. But then he also realizes that the devil god has designed his life that way so he could replace him. That’s when he beats him at his own game. It was really a great story saying that fate cannot dictate everything about you

I disagree that the Bo’re life was draggy or insignificant. In fact that dream sequence made each of those characters understand a lot of things about their life and provided LSS and TTJ all they needed for what happened in the end. They all did something different from who they represented in the Bo’Re life. In fact if anything the Bo’re life drove a lot of the characters’ future actions.

I never thought of LSS as not understanding worldly political conflicts and how that influenced her behavior. That’s a very good perspective. And yes this XINXIA had a lot Buddhist /Indian elements to it.

Exactly she realizes she loves him and deeply cares for him that is why she could not kill him and was trying to find other ways. She sacrificed her love for the greater good by focusing on the mission. Later TTJ understands why she is the way she is and helps her achieve her goal by sacrificing himself. Till then even he thinks she is very selfish and unloving. And YES I am glad she was not diminished into a mere love interest. In fact she drives the story from the beginning to the end

Well people are biased here since it is the female character. If it were a male playing that role they would have happily lapped it up. LSSis a complete badass and I love her

I would say expecting a completely happy ending from this drama is unrealistic. So the ending they showed was apt and good

I don’t think TTJ was evil at all - he was a nice blend and took care of his people well- it’s only the ones who treated him badly that got the brunt of his evil side

Yep acting so well in front of a green screen must be so tough

Bai Lu is absolutely amazing in her character which is also pretty complex and she brought out all the nuances. Watching the second time . They are so well matched - both go toe to toe and it’s wonderful to watch that

Yes an apt ending! Kind of happy, peaceful and open ending

Exactly the ending was very apt for the drama - we did not need a happy ‘good beats evil’ ending for this one. TTJ’s character was so complex and I knew half way into the drama that it would have an unique ending

The ending is kind of in the middle . They both completed their mission and one of them was left alive in the aftermath. It is a fair ending because there was no other way out to accomplish what she wanted

I have started rewatching

Ok but I get it - how else could you my resolve what was happening - that’s the reason TTJ is resigned to give up his life and destroy himself completely

YXW’s love needed to evolve slowly because all she had seen was the destruction he caused in the future. Hence it took longer for her to look at him a different way an she still had doubts till the end

Yep moon lovers ending was worse than this. This one atleast is a sad but open ending

Yep that definitely was the most incomplete ending and everything was rushed

Actually it’s not depressing at all- it is extremely interesting and well made

Lol welcome to the club

He does play gray characters so beautifully! Amazing
