I liked Sung Hoon and Shin Hye Sun as the couple in love. The production house should spin-off a short drama (16 episodes) with their characters. They were very cute and very funny on the Happy Together talk show. You might like the episode.

Mark Chao as Mo Quan/He Yua, Yang Mi as Bai Qian/Su Su, Vengo Gao as Dong Hua, Alan Yu as Fourth Brother Bai Zhen and Vin Zhang as Li Jing, are my favorites. I dislike the exaggerated numbering system that the Celestial people use. 20,000, 70,000 190,000 years are far-fetched. The novelist kept adding zeroes to reinforce that this is a fantasy drama.

I could not watch Five Children, even though I liked the actors.

Ha Ha! Song Il Guk became my #1 most favorite Korean actor because of his adorable Triplet boys. I think that Mo Quan/Ye Hua is calling out to Il Guk. If Korea decides to buy another Chinese drama, like they did with Scarlet Heart, the Eternal Love aka Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms aka Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms (Eternal Love) would be the best candidate. Il Guk would be the best choice for Mo Quan/Ye Hua/Zhao Ge.

I watched the first 20 episodes on DF site in three days, then went to You Tube, and watched episodes 21 to 37 without subs. I do not understand the Chinese language, but I was still hooked on every episode. I wanted to see what happened next, to Su Su.

Xuan Nu and Su Jin must be related. Both women are evil and manipulative, and they hate the same woman, Bai Qian/Su Su. I would like to watch a Chinese TV drama without this female stereotype.

I had no interest in Bai Lan State story. I was nauseaus looking at pathetic YT, and hypocritical husband HX was annoying. Prime Minister was galling me. I skipped over their scenes after the midpoint of the drama. He Xia looked very handsome at the end, and I knew his fate, so I watched his final three episodes.

I had no empathy for He Xia throughout the drama. I skipped his scenes in the last half of the drama. Sean Sun looked different in the last few episodes. He might have lost weight from working intensely in this drama. He looked very handsome at the end.

I agree with you about the length of the drama. I had to skip the Bai Lan State scenes with He Xia, Princess Bai and Prime Minister. He Xia started to look very handsome and lean in the last few episodes.

Some parts of the drama are boring, but there are some interesting plotlines as well. I like all the scenes with Wallace Chung/Chu Bei Jie.

She is intellectual and smarter than the men in authority, who call her a witch. There is no sorcery in the drama (I am up to episode 43). I think that the first episode with the zither playing, and the winds picking up and the river flooding, were like some martial arts special effects.

Wallace Chung is doing a great job as Chu Bi Jie.

The novel is translated on http://moonbunnycafe.com.

The best, funniest comments, ever written. I can't stop laughing.

I am watching the drama because of Chu Bei Jie only.

I am watching this drama, because of Wallace Chung. Chu Bei Jie is the romantic warrior general.

Viewers, at any age, cried during that final scene. It was the best scene in a movie or drama, that I have seen.

I am curious why it took 20 to 30 years for him to be upgraded to Goblin status.

The only problem that I experience with these long dramas, is keeping track of the last episode that I watched on the drama site.

I am very impressed with your timeline. I hoped to watch ten episodes weekly, but I averaged 18 episodes weekly. I should be done in 1 week.
