Sunbath12

I’m at ep 14. It’s hard to continue as the writing is quite subpar. Feeling bad for the actors…

Has anyone noted down the list of the iconic scenes? So far in the actual drama, it has aligned with episodes (example ep 17), so I'm wondering how ep 22 will go down (in the original trash script, it's when Song Yiting has an affair with NH).

LOL

This second part of the story is feeling a little repetitive and draggy to be honest. But I suppose something has to really push them to realize they both like each other (it's taken long enough lol). But I agree, please no unnecessary dragging of this misunderstanding

I'm watching on viki, although it is a bit behind the schedule

Ah, a cliff dive. It's been a while since I saw one of those lol

I think it was just the three actors (NH, FL and 2nd ML). The other people (the director, writer and the agents of the 3 actors) I don't think are in the fictional world.

Loved the scene between the sisters: On the surface, it seems that SYT is talking about the world of the script that our FL has to learn to live in. In actuality, SYM is the same in the real world. She's been drifting along her life but not really investing much in it - not giving her full self to any pursuit or allowing others to see her real self.

Maybe I’ll wait to watch the next stretch of eps together

I haven’t watched today’s yet but I was hoping for some positive development lol

Oof, Liu Chang still up to his delusional ways.

He tends to play villains so we shall see 😆

I think there's enough there in the story so far for him and Nan Heng to eventually reconcile. One of my favorite scenes so far is when CGH shares a drink with Li Shiliu (and some backstory is shown). Someone else is behind everything to drive a wedge between them, methinks.

Something is fishy about the battle of Pingrong (spelling?)...must the be ultimate mastermind behind it all...but who?

I agree the execution/direction could be better.

Fine, a LOT ;)

He's definitely a bit kooky

The rap is pretty rare to hear in a period drama too. Or I guess I don't watch too many with a ton of comedy so maybe I wouldn't know.

Ep 12 my favorite so far - I get the feeling Chu Guihong is not going to be the antagonist but someone else. That emperor is sus, but it may be someone else.

I’m not all the way caught up; but she hasn’t impressed me much as a character so far. I keep wondering if she is really his sister - she certainly doesn’t share her brother’s intelligence lol
