Ummm Luoyang is a thriller/suspense drama - every episode ends on a suspenseful note. Whereas Sword Snow Stride is almost (currently) journal-like. Dark themes are explored but the whole thing is not done super heavy-handedly. Noice.

I think the pacing is fine since the characters and their interactions currently keep it interesting. Moreover, am liking this drama cos it doesn't take itself too seriously.

Indeed - what's the point of watching yet another c-drama churning out the same old same old, like they all came out of a clone factory.

Agree, so far it’s hugely enjoyable and the characters are really not behaving like the usual stereotypes. I also like the fight scenes - not sure why there’s so much bitching about them. After the angst of Pearl Eclipse and even the seriousness of Luoyang, this is a nice relief.

You betcha! ROFL!

Yes, that horse scene was hilarious but enjoyable.

Am just hoping YM isn't leading us on when she said that in the end there will be a sweet love story.............

Did you see the interview snippet between YM and WC where they are asked to imitate each other and WC immediately goes "Shifu!" with BIG eyes - LOL!

Major suspension of disbelief - as always - LOL!

Yes, it's a pleasant surprise to see his acting chops in this - so far this year he's been in quite a few dramas but always rather so-so. Obviously another actor who just needs the right script and director to shine.

Already did and feels so good without the toxic vibes :)

It's just misogynist really - as if women don't get enough flak without fossilized people making comments like that in this day and age. Olivia Newton John was nearly 30 when she starred as a teenager in Grease. And in general, Asian faces tend to remain younger looking than Caucasian faces - something we could be celebrating instead of being subjected to BS comments like these over and over again.

Great advice! Just cleared my feed of all that BS. Funnily enough those people are just shooting themselves in the foot/mouth since they just increase the number of comments exponentially.

WeTV will also start releasing free episodes on YouTube today

True dat!

And it's like he's totally forgotten she's a girl..........oh well, it's a nice change to have the FL being able to gawk at the ML's body - LOL

same same - LOL

I think it's when they blow the side strands to have the "hair flying in the wind" look that probably brings up the bug similarity - I did find that a bit hilarious and OTT. But shouldn't detract from the watchability of the drama. And oh yeah if he is a cockroach he's one hell of a buff cockroach - wait until you see that undressing scene! How much did they spend on it cos everything looks seriously good. Or maybe it’s cos I'm still recovering from Rebirth for You - LOL.

If you like William Chan, you have to watch Lost Love in Times too - he and Joe Xu are so good in that. One of my faves to rewatch. And it has Simon Gong in there too in his pre-WOH days, when no one knew who he was.

Aiyah it's not that bad lah - they always spend so much time and angst zeroing in on these things. So far I'm finding the production, cinematography and sets really beautiful. Also there seems to be some complex relationship/backstory between Fang Zhu and the Emperor which doesn't insult the audience's intelligence. And am somewhat surprised by Xu Kaicheng who is showing a little more depth to his acting than expected. However it's early days/episodes...............
