chen zhe yuan, sorry I doubted you can pull off the general role, cuz he portrayed that role soooo welll. him relying on his eyes + eyebrows most of the time was such an amazing detail to his character and suited him too well. also that walk 🔥
what I absolutely love about the Suige/Yixiao pairing is that they are both such great people on their own, and them together adds their strengths , it doesnt diminish the power of each. they always have something to add to the table and can work separately at any given moment. also, they have the wisdom that comes from their experiences. they know when to push and when to hold back at any given moment, which is rare to see happen consistently in a drama
chen he yi and qin tian yu did such a GREAT job portraying the Jiuxu brothers!! their portrayals of their characters was very enjoyable to watch. them along with xia meng (feng xiyang) made that whole arc soooooo enjoyable
I have a question about the drama, spoiler till ep 16
why did it become so boring? does it get better? I feel like the whole arc of them taking the siblings' identity is so annoying and not well used. It would have been more fun if the siblings were actually a part of the plot and you can see their dynamic within the academy with other disciples and how they navigate pretending to be siblings while actually dating or sth like that. but now it is just a super dull arc with no interactions whatsoever with their setting. And it is getting super boring now. Will the drama continue with this pacing or will it get better? Also the scenes with ruling and the snake are becoming dull as well. It feels like we have been getting the same scenes repurposed over and over again. Like nothing is actually happening in terms of plot. just the script writers dont want ruling to be seen as bad while making her have sketchy alliances, so it is pretty anticlimactic. and that snake is just sooo docile and no situations for actual development. So I am not sure what am i watching right now. Does it get better?
This is one of the most enjoyable dramas this years loved it a lot! that said, the last 6 episodes were such a pain. was not a fan of how it was written (not the plot but more the way the plot was delivered)
I haven’t watched the other two dramas in this trilogy. does that affect my watch experience? and are both relevant or should i watch one more than the other?
This drama was such an enjoyable watch Lu Yu Xiao brought life to the FL and I just love her Hu Minghao was good too and they both matched each other's vibes perfectly! I also loved the styling of the drama from the hair styles to the accessories and the details of the robes they were wearing. It is like the team was topping themselves in bringing out the beauty of each actor/actress. Everyone looked extremely well styled Also the directing was really pleasing, the way the shots were taken was extremely pleasing to the eye. The fighting scenes were good too (but the battle scenes were honestly not that well written). But everything else flowed well and the story was engaging from start to end. My only comment would be some plot devices were introduced but werent utilized in the plot (and I would have loved to see them more utilized), and the battle scenes were not well written (as opposed to fighting to scenes or other scenes in the drama). But overall such a solid watch and I enjoyed the characters and the pacing a lot. never a dull moment. (also the sml scenes were engaging as well which is usually not the case. Yu Cheng En was a perfect fit).
