I thoroughly enjoyed the comedy of the first two eps… the 8.0 rating feels like a mislabeling (even though I know MDL ratings are never reliable). I find the FL’s reactions more realistic for the time traveling genre; she questions intuitively and fights hard instead of just accepting fate. I think im just too sick of wishy washy main characters 😅 looking forward to next eps!!
im curious what episode you're on? while i believe the drama would have delivered better with ~36 episodes, their hatred is resolved when they scheme together against a common enemy. the mortal realm illusion allowed him to understand her pain, and knowing about his lightning punishment helped her gradually resolve her hate. it didn't happen in just one episode, in fact, many criticized the FL for not letting down her grudges instantly. iirc HRY said that "there was love and hate but never abhorrence", meaning that regardless of their grudges, neither of them could let the other go. not liking the pacing is justified, but if you saw the stabbing and thought that was how their relationship simply ended, i believe you must have missed a fair amount of dialogue /episodes.
was browsing through anticipated dramas and stumbled upon this.. 90k comments?! 5k photos?! is it a super long drama or is the novel high IP? I feel like I've never seen pre-airing numbers like this before 😅
Can u tell me in which ep he knows her identity that she is a girl
he starts suspecting in ep5 when seeing her in her "xie xiang" form, his suspicions are gradually confirmed all the way until ep16 when he tells her that he's known for a while
my guess is 7/12/25 Saturday, since it's usually a month between airing and filming if you count the other episodes…
OMG I WAS WRONG MB !! just checked trailer and they moved up the airing date, meaning the hi6 episode will be coming in a week. im literally so shocked rn 😮
hello 😊maybe this is off topic but have you also noticed that up until this year dramas had a max of 40 episodes…
40 is often set as the default on MDL, actual amount is only confirmed later on in the production period. I'm honestly ok with the shorter episode amount bc some shows manage to be draggy even with less episodes 🥲I won't name names but there are many highly anticipated shows that ended up wasting a good cast and plot bc of pacing
my guess is 7/12/25 Saturday, since it's usually a month between airing and filming if you count the other episodes lined up to air in between. some said that it might be aired earlier so that more fans would watch the hi6 episode before the show's popularity dissipates, but if you look at youthful glory, its hi6 episode was aired like over a week after it finished airing. i'm afraid we'll also need to wait a few more weeks 😭😭
I feel like we're watching different shows? or perhaps the subtitles didn't do they original dialogue justice?…
I think this'll be my last reply since we prob can never see eye to eye lol, as our interpretations differ. For the bedside scene, she wasn't trying to blame an unconscious man; how would he even hear her complaints?? She gave herself hope that he'll come back so they can continue fixing their grudges. She wants their entanglement to be enough reason for him to grasp onto life (since the doctor said he no longer had the will to live). Yes, facing a new truth is difficult, but HRY's current predicament is proof of what she's unwilling to let go of: her ties with BJS, including the good and the ugly.
If she only cared about her suffering, why would she show BJS the illusion to try to help him understand her life in his absence? She could've buried her pain in the past but instead decided to show her perspective. On the contrary, he didn't tell her about the thunderstrikes, and she only learned through a third party. I applaud BJS for "going that far", but that doesn't justify his methods. She was left with the impression that it was a one-sided love and dearly grasped onto her child with the little strength that she had, since it was the last remnant of her relationship with BJS. He heroically took those strikes for her, but his good intentions were known only centuries later. His explanation came late, and so did her reasoning.
I don't see how it's hard to understand their foil. She found his approach too logical, EX. he essentially told her to let the mortal child's (Meng Chi's) leg stay broken even though he was hurt trying to save HRY. Immortal or mortal, how could she stand by and do nothing? Her emotional affinity with the mortals is what saved/helped many lives as well (the young girl w/ medicine, the boy's leg, stability for the meng generation, and many more). Over time, she comes to see the logic behind his selflessness and he comes to resonate with her emotions stemmed from their mortal trial. Their worldviews once clashed, but they can finally see eye to eye. Nothing is perfectly fair, yet I find their story to be perfectly touching in showing how they end up pulling things even despite those "invisible hands" ruining their relationship🫶
