Kinara

When is she going to take care of Yan Ke? He is really getting out of hand

Even for a woman it is perfectly normal if she is older to have dated a few men. No one is a monk or a saint here. Not in this modern world

Well if you like squeaky clean characters good for you too. You did say you did not want to argue . Let’s just accept that our opinions differ and move on

Yes this is the first time feelings and senses are coming into play for her

I am not searching for realism in a fantasy love story between two different species. But I am also not bothered by the fact that she had 22 lovers in 400 yrs. When an emperor has a harem it is considered normal isn’t it? The point she was trying to make there is the fact that a mortal life is finite while hers is not. But yes opinions can vary. I also understand everyone wants ML to be extraordinary in some way to ‘better suit her’ but as I said before I don’t

This is what I realized . The FL thought that she could exchange senses with him whenever she wanted but keep a distance as far as love is considered. But would it really work that way if he had a wife? The exchanging of senses itself so intimate of you think about it . He is giving parts of himself to her . And she did not do that with the 22 lovers she had. So this is a totally different scenario

The exclusivity is on the fact that only he can see her true identity . She has been her true self only with him. He went to the Void with her . And he is tne only one who can exchange senses with her . Actually her having had other men is realistic . Also the stories you are talking about may be about gods and immortals- where ‘purity ‘ is a factor😂😂. Here not so much. She is a ghost spirits who deals with peoples’ obsessions. Nothing disappointing here . As for the rejection it shows how much she cares for him- she does not want him trapped in a love that will not give him mortal happiness. And she does not want to lose a person who is so dear to her . I don’t think she loved the other mortals like she does the ML

😂- that is definitely true of c-dramas

Why is this even a surprise? The fact that she had other men? Her life is never ending and she is 400 yrs old . It is very realistic that she has had 22 relationships .

Yes he is

I definitely need a continuous rewatch to understand a few dynamics . An I will do that

Yes they make an attractive pair. Arthur Chen is actually a mature actor - you have to look at his body of work to understand that . Some of these pairs get repeated so rarely. We will have to see

Yes I do remember that

When Jiang Ai refers to him as ‘child’ a few times in the Void, you know that even though he is this terrifying general/assassin, he still has that child like innocence

Welcome

Yesh she sees other endearing qualities in him that attract her. Love is not about ‘superiority’

My question is this. Why should he be this ‘superior of men’ ? How do you even go about evaluating that .

For viewers complaining: I like the way this story is paced and how it is laid out. The default for this story is that the spirit world is way more powerful than the mortal world and He Simu is extremely powerful. Duan Xu in the other hand is a powerful general in the mortal world and he is very clever and he is also very young. They have kept the dynamic of an extremely powerful 400 yr old spirit and a 19 yr old general dynamic very well. If you think the ML is being immature clingy etc - you have to remember how a 19 yr old would behave and this is his first time falling for someone. The first 14 episodes focused on him and how their relationship evolved and from 14 - 24 they showed her world and their dynamics . This is not a simple story and requires one to really understand the characters. I don’t expect Duan Xu to be more powerful than the FL or resort to some extreme heroics to show that he is extraordinary. That actually would ruin the story . He has other endearing characteristics that make him stand out from He Simu’s perspective, that make her fall for him . In spite of the imbalance in power between ML and FL, the two characters are still very well balanced and well paired. It works and that is the beauty of it.
The story is not just revolving around their relationship either . They are also showing the life and and politics of both their worlds.

Ok - I guess I will watch it tonight then! But it’s beautiful ul

Exactly. That is the part I love about this drama. It is not just about their relationship. They have created their own stories.
