I don't like horror... But I like this one.

Kim TaeRi is beautiful, I can't believe the age in her personal page LOL.

It'll be interesting to see where the story is going.

CWN's pain is GLORIOUS, did you get to the stairs and the aftermath? :D

There is no fake BE for 2ha. The only and actual ending is a HE. Now, given the shenanigans Chinese censorship likes to play with anything danmei, I wouldn't put it above them to stop at the point where it SEEMS all ends unhappily.

But if Tencent wants to survive fandom ire, they won't even try it. IF they ever let it air, that is.

She wants him to be the carefree JiuSi who never troubled over anything, because that's what she thinks makes him happy.

When he acknowledges to himself he's already changed by the events in their lives, he also wants her to remain the YuRu he's known, the one who's tentatively spreading her wings and quietly but steadily coming out of her crysalis.

Basically, each wish the other one kept their innocence.

It would be like someone came to you and said - I'll give you a billion dollars, go and get me (someone who escaped after killing lots of soldiers through his amazing martial arts).

Err... I prefer to stay poor and alive, LOL.

So, after 10 eps, what's the consensus? Is it worth the time invest? I tried to watch the first ep and get a feeling for myself, because Xu Kai, and the FL looks beautiful in stills but I'm not convinced there was a lot of money going in this (not a S-level costume drama? because of the low effort CGI, complaints I've read in here about not being too close to the original work it's adapting, and because it starts pretty slowly). I'm hoping I'm very wrong. I've been missing Xu Kai since SAHPH.

Gulnezer Bextyiar, just like Dilraba Dilmurat, Merxat Yalkun (these being the most famous) and other active actors / artists are all of Uyghur ethnicity. While being a Turkic ethnicity, that doesn't mean they are "from" Turkiye/Turkey. Their home country is China - all the three I've mentioned are from Urumqi, in XinJiang, the (in)famous region that's been making waves in international news.

Most of them are really fighting a sasaeng battle to make KTL come on top for the time the two dramas air in paralel. But they will pretend it's because their sensitivities are hurt and you (and me, and anyone else enjoying this drama) are immoral monsters. Some of them just use their alt-accounts (that were created years ago for the specific purpose of "supporting" the dramas their faves are starring in, some will use their main accounts, sometimes even "converse" with each other as if they were different people.

It's why "cancel culture" appeared as a pejorative term.

Don't mind them and don't bother with them any more - fake outrage is just fake. You could use the block button, but alt-accounts can re-appear all the time. Just ignore their diatribes and enjoy the drama.

(Also, I bet there are some fans of the leads here but there are basically NO chains of comments in that drama's section to complain about anything wrong with it just because it's competing with SYIM19L. Not everybody is a sasaeng.)

"Try to open your minds a little please. And you’ll see the world does not revolve around yourself, your ideas and your thoughts. Trust me, you’ll learn a lot more and who knows, you’ll learn to grow too. "

Read your own advice and use it.

Also, here's a new read for you:

It's 100 GOLD taels. That's a whole lot more than silver taels.

(Roundly, and not taking into consideration every cultural, regional and dynastical circumstance, as I do not know enough about those, a silver tael used to be around 40 grams of silver, and a gold tael was about 37.5 grams of gold - again, no idea how pure. But still, he first offered 100 silver taels when they were still in YangZhou then changed it to the same amount but in gold, and mentioned it's about how much they robbed from the Gu family anyway. Some 3,75 kilograms of gold. That would be about 214k Euro, in today's worth. Same amount of silver - well, 4 kgs, a bit more - would be worth only 2.6k Euro.)

The masochist: Hit me some more!

The sadist: ...Nah, I don't think I will.

:D

So, let's take this in order.

First (bloody) kiss(es). They count.

Also, what were they doing under that blanket! I'm with Zhou Ye in this. This is highly sus. And now they've taken to sleeping in the same bed like it's nothing. And almost kissed twice (no blood this time). And she laughs in his presence (spooking him as much as when she cries in his presence, LOL).

Also, who the f wrote the music for this drama?? When they were in that hut (which reminded me SO MUCH of the hut YXW takes TTJ after she finds him on the river bank), the BGM was a song that sounded veeeeery much like a TTEOTM BGM too (not the same, but similar). It kept tickling my recognissance nerve. There's no music composer in the crew list, I am dying to know.

GJS is taking the initiative (yet again). And he got first place, yay!! Good thing nobody cares about "that" bet. What's GJS going to do, form a secret informers network? Smart lad :D

Poor Mme Gu. She is almost certain her husband is dead - but maybe not - and doesn't want to learn anything definitive if it's not going to be good news. I sure hope Mr. Gu found YuRu's mom and they're hiding somewhere in YangZhou until things settle down more. At least the concubine is not in the same place as the Gu family - which reminds me OMG WHAT A BEAUTIFUL COURT!!! I've never seen one so large paved in woodplanks, that's gorgeous! (Their first mansion was great too, what with the water coming under the house, so beautiful, I want one!!!)

*Sigh* I might have a bare feet fetish. First I noticed it with the princess' arrival in The Blue Whisper (she steps out with bare feet unto rose petals, that was so seductive OMG), and now with JiuSi barreling down the corridor in bare feet... Why don't more costume drama characters do that!! It's so sexy. Do it some more, hear me?

GJS, hit me with your best shot!!

"You are my life."

...Okay, I give.

Watch some Luo YunXi and Bai Lu drama - either Love is Sweet or Till the End of the Moon. The fact that they're friends makes them very relaxed around each other, and the dramas are better for it.

For this one, there are rumours that BJT and SY are maybe dating, or at least good friends too, and it's also pretty obvious they're comfortable around each other.

China should really get over the "not too many dramas together" thing they've got going, it's clear that most dramas are suffering from leads not being all that familiar with each other...

The fact that he is so missed for the eps he's not there shows how good a character Wuxin was LOL. Half the time I was betting on him to come save the day :D

He is main cast in The Blood of Youth, playing Wuxin - and what a role!

Wait, does that mean that he won the bet and now she can be divorced from him? How did it go? (Though I have this feeling she destroyed that divorce letter already LOL).

He has 18 more of those, and this one was proving to be really, really stupid anyway.

It's like riding a bike the first time - you don't fall off until you get scared and make mistakes. Also depends a lot on how calm the horse is. A horse that doesn't get scared of a big flash of fire is a pretty calm horse.

Also, suspension of disbelief LOL. If we can pretend there's any physics that happened in that melee battle, then we can pretend she can ride a horse at speed on her second try LOL.

I KNOW!!!!!! And NOBODY said anything!! I mean, the other two were there in the exam, too, come on, SPOIL US!!!! Hahaha :D
