i too was thinking that but at the stone when he wrote his name, would u say his real name is ji bozai too? ordid thunder strike for both names lol

i think there was only one slow episode so far where they were telling the backstory of mu qubai... but seriously, besides that, the pace of this show has been great

right?!! so unapologetically cliché but it sounds so carefree and so many coincidences its just fun! and the leads are really great!

I think what makes it more difficult to take the nuances of her character is that we don't actually see this in the scenes, we have to assume it. The show easily gave us ji bozai's perspective and everything is spelled out for us to understand... but for her, its only until today's episode that we see her mother's traumatic grip on her... and we have to assume she has trouble trusting. it's almost intentional from the writers we always see the flower on her arm as an urgency to confess but we don't hear her true hesitations. unless i wasn't that attentive.

this is actually super interesting i didn't notice in the show, when was that explained? because there is still the intruigue of where ji bozai comes from. he has some kind of mark on his front that appeared once in his past ( i only noticed it once!) and i'm not sure if i understood clearly, but he survived the same poison without the golden millet?

so the child swipe may be more connected to them

honestly i understand why sad endings are hard, i haven't finished this one yet but i am enjoying it very much! i used to also hate sad endings, but now i can appreciate tragedies and sad endings. it leaves a greater reflection and mark on the viewer...
that's why i try to never choose a show according to its end.

it's funky zesty and honestly the characters grew on me as the story progresses. the FL is so playful and her Cat energy is a win for this show in itself!

but the PLOT T_T ughhhhhhhh it's so annoying... I couldn't take the story seriously in the beginning, and just as it gets better, now I'm at ep 34 and I am having a hard time finishing this drama, glad most reviews appreciate the ending...

absolutely!!! i also loved their strong personalities at the barrier and how they took it to fighting. after discovering the core for the FL... i also feel theres a mystery with ML still to discover...

Glad it wasn't just me feeling this! I hope LYN gets a top tier script for his next project

i've watched them all and for me pearl girl still takes the cake somehow!! it was the best couple pairing and the story evolved at the perfect pace ( albeit some really frustrating bits)
and surprisignly adwad coming second because of how wild it was!! journey to love is my third rec because the whole cast was on point and the story so grand.

i watched pob first because i thought i wouldnt like adwad, ended up giving up on pob and i loved adwad. i think adwad is so wild you dont know wat to expect and thats an amazing thrill! lyn is exceptional in both obviously, but i found pob a bit toooo lyrical. for someone who havent watched a lot of dramas, they'd be over the moon with pob, but its a bit too predictable and i couldn't take it too seriously compared to adwad that actually kept me on my toes with the most silly plot ever lol

well said! i think ajtl is really about not fearing death but separation and its told beautifully

i think his role in pearl girl was more round that this one. here it felt a bit more scripted. but LYN is among my favourite actors his performances are always outstanding. in each of his dramas there was good and bad, his fighting scenes here were flawless, and his dynamic with his sidekicks too but it comes really close to adwad. on the other end his romantic couple in pearl girl for me was the best there is so far , even better than the long ballad and the prisoner of beauty. for adwad i found it was his best performance and very witty , the romantic part with FL was a bit too stiff and the suffering of ML was so exaggerated( even if on purpose) ...
the story itself in ajtl was really good but it takes like half the episodes to understand the grandeur of the story.

i think u should finish it. the characters bounce between life and death all the time, i think what this couple and this show really show is to not fear death but to fear separation which is beautiful and tragic but well done

omg exactly i was so shocked!! i watched adwad before this and the links are so many! i wondered what was that fighting scene in the first ep of adwad, so its such a funny reference!! i wonder if we can read into it to understand the ending of adwad. honestly i wanted to like adwad more than this, but each show had its strengths and lows, i think ML performance was better in adwad but the support cast in ajtl is so outstanding and nuanced, more than adwad.

i agreeeeee i watched because of other performances of ML, i think the Main leads were amazing and this show was so well produced but it was a bit too sensationalist in terms of couple power, it wasnt as believable and intuitive as other shows like the pearl girl. but their fighting scenes together were my favourite. i think ren was an oustanding character well played, its the romance that felt slightly off for me. the princess character in the ending is a well played character but me too i dont understand why she got so much screentime in the end. i was expecting the other princess at least. or a hint of a mended relationship with the marquis. i guess the writers wanted us to rely on past scenes of him 'not crying anymore ' lol i was expecting tragedy already so im less shocked.

i agree, i thought i missed something ??but the boy clearly says its his parents! and the fact that we don't actually see them dead in their last fights is also telling. i was mentally prepared for them to die hahaha but it was nice the writers gave main couple that happy end

so we see when she sees hosu again as teenager, the other school guy asks her out and she accepts... i think that would explain him backing out. but i think we are still missing hosu 'POV' of how he moved on? we only got tiny hints of his POV. i'm really curious about what happened between hosu and mirae as they were rumored and we never got clarification. i also think there was an implied misunderstanding between miji and hosu caused by hosu's mom , but i never understood. it was mentionned in the beginning.

i also think theres a seggual harrassement situation? i didn't understand 100% but i think they are keeping the mystery for the plot?

hahahahaa so true 😵
