If I were to watch this, which episodes could I safely skip so as to enjoy what's worth watching of this? If I…
It was too long ago, I can't really remember. But I think you can more or less stop at the point the Yan Xun arc begins and maybe just watch the last few episodes.
Douban audience always pan GJM dramas. The core of that voter base think he is a plagiarist and consistently score him low. I think the highest he got was 6.3 for MJTY. FOF was only 5.1.
As usual after watching Drama reading your reviews gives me different kind of pleasure. About the dram Yeah same…
Thank you for reading and your comments. The director is brilliant but clearly he deserves to work with better scriptwriters. Hopefully his next project.... 😅

Well, yes and no. When it comes to endorsements, most brands only work with 1 actor or maybe 1 male and 1 female. That's why their agencies (who get a cut) are always trying to say their actor was the reason people watched the drama.

Another Wuxia, bet its yet another Sad/tragic ending! 🙄Wuxia= SE?! WHY???!!

Why butterfly, come to think of it? I wouldn't associate them with evil. The only butterflies I know from the…
They are usually associated with departed souls. That is why at the end of Butterfly Lovers, the doomed couple turn into butterflies. There are also Chinese ghost stories where black butterflies can be omens of bad luck or evil.
Sigh! Not a fan of time loops. And these are rushed. I think this is where the narrative falls down a bit for me. It would have benefitted from more simplicity.

Not a train wreck (yet) but he's gotta stop these twists on twists and character flip-flops or....
