She totally deserved that, if anything he was too easy on her. That was a major f-up on her part and loving someone doesn't mean you should hold back when they do something incredibly stupid and reckless. Sugarcoating the truth may lead to Sun eventually loving a dead person.

Also region restricted. I can use a VPN but it is a pain. But I will do it if I rewatch some episodes after it finishes airing.

I have been meaning to check out the subs for this but both Tencent and Viki region restricted me so I have been forced to watch on Duboku which only has Chinese subs.

No! Don't tell me Xiao Zhan also? Idk why I always wonder about him... Gonna go google that now. I rarely watch award shows and tbh before this drama I wasn't her biggest fan even though I think she is stunning...

Yeah I can tell that already and I understand its the setting and I guess I understand if it is confined just one or two characters but it seems like there is a consistent theme of very heavy handed and physically aggressive men in this show.

Hmmm... I just got there. I love the actor but I don't feel any chemistry between him and LYT at all and I really don't like the way the character is bullying her. Those kinds of power play dynamics always bug me.

Yeah totally.... I am tempted to open a twitter account just to tell the Youku international person two thumbs down re: the prequel.

I hope so even though it seems to be taking forever they are not even shooting yet.

Yeah I hear you no one likes to take work home and especially that kind of work, important as it is.

Not to mention She'er actor.,.

LMAO... look at us... Sun is just bullet proof he can get away with anything at this point!

Yes many people don't like to watch those kinds of relationships, which is why I always caveat that it is not for everyone. I love dark themes and anti-heroes and don't mind good tragedies either so my viewing taste doesn't appeal to everyone.

It gets more serious.

Khatun is a pretty important character and it is just not IMHO well portrayed. Her parts are the only parts in this drama that make me roll my eyes and itch to FF.

Haha - just calling it as I see it. I liked L&R too but I did not like any of the couples. I just love good Xianxia stories and good villains are important to me.

She does have great taste - see the skeptical, slightly disdainful sidelong glance she gave the bratty crown prince?

Both dramas have some flaws. I think there was much better chemistry between her and the ML in the Wolf but there are dark themes in the drama that some people really don't like. Song of Glory is one of those dramas that starts out very strong and then sags in the end. But they are both good dramas overall. You can't go that wrong with either.

Yes I have seen a lot of that behaviour it is really atrocious. But I do wish more people who drop dramas for constructive reasons drop short reviews on why they did it. C-dramas are so long and sometimes I keep going thinking it gets better and then end up wasting so much time on something not good.

Li Qin is great - unfortunately her character in JOL doesn't get that much screen time. I really enjoyed the Wolf but it is a dark fantasy, not for everyone. Her character there is not complex but she acted well in it.. She gets to play a much more badass character in Song of Glory.

I don't know why but they always make me think of The Bodyguard.
