Omg you're here (I rmr seeing u in multiple drama pages)... AND YES I AGREE!!!! 100%!! I really felt that the…
I rmr not being into her either but she became more likeable in the second watch for me. I lowkey like to think of this drama as a BL / love story btw Yuanzhou and Yichen. You'll notice a lot of hidden meanings that could be interpreted in different ways. It's really interesting.
Gotta say tho that this drama also feels like a polycule lol it's really shocking how they do it here. You might even ship the girls more tgt (than the main cp). So one reason I prefer no cp at all is for the coupling in this drama to feel completely balanced out lol.
I feel the romance shoudve been between yi chen and zhu yan, they have more chemistry
Omg you're here (I rmr seeing u in multiple drama pages)... AND YES I AGREE!!!! 100%!! I really felt that the main plot of the drama was their story 🫣
I rmr when this was airing and so many of us were legit fangirling over them like how did this pass censorship? 🤣🤣
I love how it goes from Yuanzhou flirting with Yichen (first half) to an angstier (love) story btw them in the second half where Yichen begins to understand and even love Yuanzhou, and their bond goes even stronger and deeper. Their story is so beautifully portrayed and felt so natural to me. A bond like no other. Truly beautiful!
Which regions is this drama on iQIYI? I might just try to use a VPN atp. And ofc one will English subtitles too. Or I'll wait for a pirate site for this since I don't have other subscriptions...
Question: I am 9 episodes in. I dropped Dashing Youth because I didn't like it and thought it was too different…
Ahhh okay thanks for the info. And lol same. I wouldn't argue which one's better. Thought to give u this info but it seems I'm mistaken lol my apologies. Which interview and where btw? Kinda curious. But yeah the writing in the other two is better and is objectively better imo!
I really love SMY and SCH, and the acting is spectacular!! It actually took me a while to even recognise that…
Yessss!! Not to mention Chang Huasen is also in an adapted BL as well: Eternal Faith... So it's really cool to see these share a drama tgt as mains and an amazing bromance! Their chemistry is 🔥
I dropped at ep 20 and I already didn't care to spoil myself anymore it gets worse right... I'm still watching Rebirth despite not finishing this tbh lol
Honestly I did not expect to like Xie Wei getting into this but dang his character is actually really likeable. I am really invested in his character and story as well. I don't look forward to the romance tho tbh. I'm so here for the plot!
She was used for her fans and growing popularity lol GJM lied to her about making her a female lead, he practically…
Oooh yeah I rmr loving the guest stars, but nah, that arc is already done early on. It was like a way to set up the next parts of the drama focusing on the bigger characters we see for most of the drama. Also I would say the story focused on basically the entire friend group (first eight characters shown in the cast).
There definitely could've been more done with the FL tho, as the others stated. If they had I would've really loved her character more. It sucks how they didn't write her well enough for my liking :( I think I did have a problem with her acting too. I couldn't resonate enough with her emotional scenes. It probably has to do with both the writing and acting.
I also understand why ppl complain about the ML, but from my view I felt that the main story was on Yuanzhou and Yichen actually, which I loved. Their relationship and bond is like no other I've seen. Also, I didn't really have much to complain about the ML. I think Neo Hou did so well with what he was given. Maybe more backstory or focus on him would've been nice, but I'd say he was still such a well-written character, and Neo ate it up in that role. His best role STILL. I think that (even if there could've been more to the writing of his character) + his acting led to me loving his character a lot.
The other characters also have a huge importance in their roles and are focused on a lot as well. I loved the group dynamics, and I felt that they did so well in fleshing out the characters in this compared to a lot of other dramas out there. And I love that. I looove when characters are written well with a lot of depth. It makes me fall in love with the characters more!
Starting this bc Bai Lu and Wang Xingyue are finally gonna have a drama as the leads 👀 I'm so excited 😍🫣🔥 I'm sure to get SLS oof so I'm glad I decided this one after One and Only which I finished last month bc going from this to OaO would've been... not the greatest LOL... since I'd go from loving WXY to hating him (his character) skfjdsjkfs
Finished it and wow what a gem this one is. I can't believe it's so underrated omg... It deserves more love. One of the best xianxias I've watched honestly. Oh how I will miss this one dearly... What a journey this one has been for me.
Omg I'm watching The Blossoming Love and I was curious who the actor was for his character as I was watching and I didn't expect it to be him like I know him from MJTY so my mind is seriously blown 😭
Still thinking about how great it would be if Yang Zi and Luo Yunxi acted as main leads in another costume drama like omg these two are in the top of my favorite actors bc they portray their emotions so well and truly become the characters they play... (I have yet to watch this tho but I heard their chemistry here is really good) :(
I'm watching the past now and I'm so happy we get to see how their past played out without any memories of their current life and that the FL experiences it so she's regaining her memories.
Okay I like the FL's relationship with both the ML and SML here. In the present life that we've been watching, her bond / chemistry with the SML didn't feel as strong or deep enough to me for some reason. There's smth about these two in their past that makes me lowkey ship them more. Maybe it's bc they've been close in the Heavenly Realm for years. And I can't help but feel for the SML with his feelings towards the FL. I think they share a beautiful (but heartbreaking) bond.
No but like I did NOT actually know the three main characters shared a past life tgt 10,000 yrs ago like dang that was quite mindblowing. What's even more mindblowing for me is that at least for the ML and SML, their present selves eventually *die* and their past selves / souls awaken. It's different how they do it tho... ML's soul gets into the body of his past self (where does his body go?) while the SML loses consciousness and his past's soul gets into his. DANG... This drama did this in such a unique way and I love it. Poor Mu Xuanling tho bc she's the only one in the present now dealing with past characters she doesn't rmr 😭
