I know you can get really engrossed in method acting but Zhen Xin seems to already had an interest in Zhang Zhun…
Yeah... I think it was love at first sight, attraction or something that when he saw his picture, he picked him... it's a good opportunity to be with someone he likes without scandal
The novel story isn't linear but the timing is confusing, it goes back to post wedding time and now (4-5 yrs later) without any notice. Or at least the one I'm reading is like that. I hope the story hasn't adopted this jumping style or if so, done it more gracefully.
It was actually very intresting but can someone help me explain the last part when that general had some flashbacks…
He didn't have those flashbacks, they did. They were seeing shots of his life. He was an Imjin war general whose corpse was used to put on a curse during Japanese Occupation of Korea.
For all its hype it's a mediocre and, in some parts, boring story. I was surprised to see its success in the box office but it has some big movie stars so it's understandable.
