Congratulations! I can remember her from Vincenzo.

The ML prince actor looked promising but the pairing with the FL felt awkward. I passed on the drama.

It's not a memorable drama.

Chu brought my rating down from 7.5 to 6.5. He is the most irrational, hot-headed pretty boy prince.

That was a stupid drama. I watched the full 4 hours' episode on 4X speed. Ling deserved a man better than Chu.

That Prince Chu is a piece of work. In the first fifty minutes of the drama, Chu strangdled Ling Ruo Jin every five minutes. He is the worst husband and worst prince. He faunts his girlfriend in front of Liu. I wish Ling would ditch him permanently.

LOL Murong Zhong from Fated Hears is back as Jiang Qing Yu [Yanmen Sect] .

Looking forward to seeing Xiao Shun Yao.

And they aso act entitled.

She was so melodramatic at the end, They hanged themselves with a silk cloth in dramas. She decided to use a dagger.

QTY's initisls sound like "cutie", which XJY was. 😁😁😁

A memo to the Fated Hearts MDL fans;

We should thank everyone who contributed to the Comment section. I finished the drama five days ago, but I have checked the new comments daily, to get more insight into the viewers' POV. This drama was really thought provoking. "We hate them! We love them!" I don't know the final reaction to the drama in Mainland China, but it is one of the better costume dramas, and all the actors' performances were very good.

Thanks for the occasional replies to my comments. The virtual conversations were productive and constructive.

Regards,

On to the next drama soon!

The writer didn't specify the characters' ages, but Jin Yan told Xi Yang something... "in all my twenty years...", which is assumed he meant he is 20. I didn't think Jing Shi would ten years older. To be tortured by the baby brother would be demoralizing. Empress Jing appears to be in her mid to 30s, which is feasible if Jing Yan is 20. The whole Jinxui arc sounds very fishy and ambiguous to me. LOL

He should play Emperor next. 😆😆😆

He was a nutcase. He was still hoping at the end for a reunion.

🤣🤣🤣 If they had to reduce the character count for budget purposes, he would on the list.

I thought the Murong Yao/Meng Jurang plot was all hype. You thought this was a super villain, but he was a privileged aristocrat's son.

Yes! Once, it's down to watching only two daily episodes, you start to lose the momentum.

Jing Shi appears to be in his mid-20s. The death camp was founded more than a decade ago. I think he selected Yi Xiao twelve years ago. He would be a preteen when he started the death camp. If that is true, he was unhinged then.

It will be funny to watch him play a prince in future costume dramas, knowing he attained Emperor status in this drama. 😆😆😆
