YiyanMeng

Then what about the announcement they made a few days ago about it? That's gotta be a sign it's coming one day, right? I can't have this not air, I've been waiting and anticipating on this one a lot 😭🙏

Ooh thanks for sharing the name~ Looks like he's dubbed by the same VA in TTEOM and LYF lol I didn't realize!

That's unfortunate. Hope we can hear his real voice one day 🙏

Okay thank you! Bummer it's still not his voice, but the dubber sounds great too!

Is this Deng Wei's voice? I listened to his voice b4 but I'm not super used to it yet. But he sounds so nice and natural. I think it might be his real voice tho, right? If so, this would be the first drama of his I watch without himself being dubbed by someone else which is refreshing!

I'm loving it so far! What an epic first scene too!!

I will hate it so much... They better give us a plot twist that he's alive... They can't just change his ending in the drama... It's too much!

It's too early to say I saved you bc... I mean, we don't know yet how they'll do it here OOF 🥲

Tbh he might be my favorite character, so him being dead would break my heart a lot 😭💔 Plus it's too early and he seems to be a big role, so we gotta just hope they give us a plot twist that he's alive in the drama 🫂🙏

One of my most anticipated dramas! Can't believe it's coming soon! I'm so so excited aahhh finally!! 😭❤️

I'm so worried for Jiang Lin... I've been thinking about him as I watch the episodes full of worry... Gosh, just watching the recent episodes breaks my heart so much! He can't just leave us this early... We're not even halfway yet... And seeing A Zan whenever he thinks about him... I can't anymore 😭💔

But as I'm writing this, I just found out that in the novel he doesn't die, so Imma just hold onto the hope he's alive! Pleaseeee I'm begging they don't change his ending! 😢🙏

Haha yes, she endured a lot to do that. I really have to applaud her for it. And I'd say the same for Yichen~ After all, he didn't want to kill Yuanzhou anymore but fate was so cruel to them that he had to, and so he couldn't live to do it without extracting his soul and even went to search thru every mountain and sea to try finding him hehe~

Lol I remember that and it made me so sad! Tho I can understand some of their feelings, especially Wen Xiao and Yichen. But still, it made me feel so sad for Yuanzhou.

Let's take Wen Xiao. Her master was killed by him even tho he didn't mean it. So to me, it was surprising how quickly she forgave him after she learnt the truth (but I think depending on the scenario it kind of makes sense ig?). But it's understandable how she feels. After all, Zhao Wan'er was her master whom she loved dearly.

And it's also really understandable for Yichen bc his father and brother were killed, which he's been enduring for 8 years. I can't even imagine if I were in his shoes. I also would be having conflicting emotions. His feelings are very real and realistic. Yet, despite that, he was the only one that went up to him after the blood moon situation.
His situation is the hardest but he was still filled with kindness by doing that, which I find so touching and sad (dang, when I see that scene again, it makes me emotional 😭). And I like to think of Yichen throwing his cloak to him as a hug gesture. You can tell thru this that he still cared about Yuanzhou. This was the moment he also started to truly feel for him. I love this scene a lot 🥺

But ughhh why we didn't get any Yuanzhou and Yichen hugs at all? After all they went thru, they needed a hug with each other (and I'm 100% sure we would've seen it if we could) 😭 Like tbh, it feels weird to not get any hugs between them (so I blame censorship 😒)... At least we got lots of hugs BTS ig tho LOL 😂

Edit: I also want to add Ying Lei. His grandfather literally passed away that same day. He was really strong for someone who experienced such a heartbreaking moment. I totally understand him. In the end, he's a character that stood out to me because of how loving and caring he is towards his friends. I'm not sure why they left him out sometimes, I blame the director / screenwriters. Yet he was always there, helping them through troubles.

And ofc, Yuanzhou. I feel so sorry for him for everything that happened because of him, but it's not his fault because rather, it's the malicious energy's fault, which Yichen came to understand later on, which I find really touching. Being in their shoes, I think in reality it would be difficult. They are very strong. And it's touching to see how they've come to understand him and stay by his side. He isn't alone anymore because now he's got friends who got his back, like Yuanzhou and Wen Xiao said about Yichen as well.

Okay, I love that you said this! Thank you for that short explanation~ Definitely needed that to clear all my cluttered thoughts xD It makes a lot more sense now!

Yk, the fact that Yuanzhou was starting to be filled with demonic energy shows how much he really wanted to protect and defend Yichen. He truly loves and cares about him a lot. But yeah, Yuanzhou leaving him after made me sad when he was in that kind of situation. The thing is, we wouldn't get that iconic scene between Yichen and Li Lun which I live for actually skfjdskfs

Also, honestly the censorship just makes this drama harder to understand at times if I have tbh lol like there are definitely some plot devices... For example, let's think about that final battle where Wen Xiao had to deal with her father (for how long?) and Yuanzhou and Yichen were fighting against Wen Zongyu. I found it strange that Wen Xiao was left alone by her father, but then again, they didn't have much time, so that makes sense here, but how long was that? The battle felt so long... I was actually worried that Wen Xiao could get killed by her father :(

I'm not sure if they really planned it together despite Yuanzhou saying it bc of Yuanzhou's reaction when Yichen got up and told him what he would do lol and rewatching the clip now it looks like Yuanzhou was sad when he saw Yichen's sword pointed at him, and asked him "Is this the only way?" but in the end he agreed to it. It could be true that they did talk about it b4, but Yuanzhou looks sad... I mean, you can't deny it was risky for him which might be why. He definitely wished there was another way. But I bet he trusted Yichen to do this, and ofc is willing to risk his life for Wen Xiao too... I do definitely agree tho that they often wanted to sacrifice themselves for Wen Xiao but hid it from the other because they didn't want the other to have to risk their life for her. So I do find the third toast situation a bit confusing in a way still. But it's okay. I just know in general they want to save Wen Xiao.

Oooh I recommend you continue FoF because from ep 15-17 it actually gets interesting~ The tone of the story changes a lot, and the humor tones down a lot too. I've seen people drop before these eps, and when they continued some time later after dropping, they ended up enjoying it a lot starting from this episode range. But it's your choice! It depends on each person, really, if they end up liking a drama or not. Ig I'm lucky bc I tend / try to be patient with dramas that I've only decided to drop a few of the 100+ dramas in total I've watched lol.

If you like Yin-Yang Master, and if you don't mind a bit of a spoiler, here's an interesting parallel between the two dramas (tho maybe you already know if you've seen the "Return After a Long Dream" MV or drama trailer)

And that's good that there's less leaks for Veil of Shadows. I wasn't there for the Fangs of Fortune during the filming but I can tell they got to film a lot. Veil of Shadows seems less spoilery from the BTS? And I think they aren't allowing anymore filming starting today, right?

Yeah I know he's the SML. Have been wanting to watch this one! And oooh he's got three characters? Interesting! Looking forward to it when I watch the drama hehe~ Also LL as in Li Lun? Li Lun was more innocent when he grew up with Yuanzhou but bc of a conflict they broke up and became enemies sadly. And yes Wang Duo's screentime is little in FoF lol. Btw did you watch all of FoF? Looks like you dropped it?

How often did this happen? I only recall when Yichen stabbed Yuanzhou after their three toasts together. I still can't believe Yichen did that, risking Yuanzhou's life. I was wonder why he went into that mode when he doesn't want him to die anymore, that even the thought of him dying makes him cry... Isn't he afraid of him dying? Wouldn't he blame himself if it all went wrong? That's the sad part. :( Or else they knew Yichen could do it (even if the chances were small) which still makes this all the more confusing lol. He was even willing to not repair his Cloud Light Sword for Yuanzhou's life. Anyway, I know they mean a lot to each other. I don't recall Yuanzhou willing to risk Yichen's life, after all, he made a promise to him that he will die b4 him (which is so selfless of him but super sad).

This is so random, but ayee, you're an Asian living in the USA? Me too! I'm curious if you don't mind me asking, what's your ethnicity? I'm Filipino :)

I decided to look and see what was in that ep and omg dang I agree... It's one of the best eps omg... That was actually what I was looking forward to the most in the drama too (very unfortunate they made it short tho and not at least an ep long...) 🙃
