Half way through this show and this FL Bai He Huai/doctor is really the most boring part of the show. Like the…
Agree with you here. She is somehow jarring existence in this drama. I cannot understand why Su Mu Yu is attracted to her. I can see Bai He Huai likes Su Mu Yu at the first sight. But, Su Mu Yu?? I just feel that this romance is forced just so we have some romance.
Aaaaaah, they really said let's go with 'EVERYTHING IS BEAUITFUL & EVERYTHING HURTS' for the ending. lol But…
Exactly my thought. I can understand that Shuhe feels guilty of loving Duan Ziang. But, the one that killed his father actually his own brother (that also in his way of killing Shuhe). And this same brother also killed Duan Ziang's brother (Jibei Crown Prince). I don't really like that in the drama Shuhe acted as if all of this is Duan Ziang fault. And his insistence to defense Shuqian annoyed me. Hello, your brother killed your father and wanted to kill you!
The drama is supported by the main couple chemistry. Story wise, there are a couple of loopholes in it. I don't really like how this drama paints Nanhui to be blameless and put all sin on Jibei. In the beginning, it was Nanhui King that ordered his trusted General Duan to be killed. Until the end this act of betrayal by Nanhui King was never addressed.
I can undertand Shuhe hesitation of giving himself fully to Ziang, but his reasoning tires me. It was his Crown Prince brother that killed their father. Either way, Shuqian deserved to die for that patricide. And Shuqian was on his way of committing fratricide also. We need to remember that Shuqian killed Ziang brother, too. Truth is there is blood feud between them, but it comes from both of them.
It is quite fun reading them curse the director and screenwriter, hahahahaha. No political correctness at all, just scolding up to their heart content. For this drama, the comments are mainly positive. It is just less people watch it.
They want fresh story I think. We need to remember they have read a lots and lots of novel with this genre for years, hahahaha. And also the novel fans are not that forgiving toward faulty adaptation. Especially when the adaptation, in their eyes, make the story worse. They are also very critical toward whether the actor/actress looks good in costume drama.
As I see it, more and more people start to watch this drama. But it is not a big hit. Not a flop. But not a hit also.
As I see it, Chinese people is really critical toward their own drama. When I read their comments, I actually amaze for their detailed observation that I miss. They have more experience in watching this kind of drama.
From the bits I read, it seems this kind of story is quite common for them. So majority just chose to skip it. And also huge deviation from original source perhaps also a factor. I hope the drama can have long tail though.
Fortunately, Moonlight Mystique started this year quite good. But, somehow I see that it is not that big hit in China. Better than The Blossoming Love, though.
Sigh. As someone who was looking forwards to the story of Tianqi and Yuemi since Ancient Love Poetry, this drama…
I understand your feeling. Had a bad experience with Douluo Continent and Fight Break Sphere that kind of completely butchering the original. I also hoped for something still resemble the original when I started watching this drama. But, in the end the drama is quite good as its own. The CGI, costume, and make up also very good. And I endure until the end since I love Fan Yue characterization. The different naming is helping quite a bit, hahahahaha.
I also watched a few mini drama, but left unsatisfied. The problem with mini drama is I feel they lack of detail and complexity. But, year 2024 really is filled with flop dramas. I think nearly all costume dramas ended up in flop.
I read that the filming just done Sep 2024. So summer this year can already considered fast. Which modern drama? The one with Song Wei Long? Honestly, I kind of staying away from Song Wei Long drama .....
Finally I'm done with this drama.... My favorite character is JING YUAN😫... He came for like two episodes and…
Cannot agree more with you about Ao Rui Peng. He really surprised me here with Mumu, Fan Yue and Jing Yuan portrayal. Not many actor out there that can create three distinct character within one drama.
Exactly! You can just feel it in the aura whether it is Fan Yue or Jing Yuan. So happy for him here. Hopefully this drama can open more door to him. Truly looking forward for his future dramas.
Bai Lu has her stellar moment in this drama. But as a whole, I cannot say she impressed me. What make me like Ao Rui Peng acting here because I can see contrast between Mumu, Fan Yue, and Jing Yuan. Even when Fan Yue is still in Jing Yuan garb, I can clearly see it is Fan Yue. This kind of acting skill is rather rare in china drama world.
I endured this drama until the end, thanks to his acting and character. Even though I gave this drama 10/10, this drama actually is not that perfect. I have my reservation toward Bai Lu acting. But for Fan Yue, this drama is perfect.
I can undertand Shuhe hesitation of giving himself fully to Ziang, but his reasoning tires me. It was his Crown Prince brother that killed their father. Either way, Shuqian deserved to die for that patricide. And Shuqian was on his way of committing fratricide also. We need to remember that Shuqian killed Ziang brother, too.
