I just finished ep 19 so slowly catching up and enjoying every bit of Rebirth!!! I am sad and surprised it's not getting any more love with the MDL crowd with the ratings but I guess not knowing anything about PA or the book I am going into this with fresh eyes & no expectations and so really loving it! It reminds me of the Double but more epic in scope.
I really wish he would grow to be a more mature man. But when he burnt the letter, I was speechless. It is his…
What thingy and I don't see them as friends when he's so obsessed with getting the object of his obsession to hate her husband. Him burning that letter; I would have punched him.
He's a cry baby. And an obsessed one for that. I'm not watching today partially because of him. He's so blinded…
He and ZY cut ties and yet he like the herpes virus still won't leave them alone. He never understood the hardships of others or even tried to. I'm glad general Huan put him in his place by saying she's loyal to the country but not blindly to him and she wants her own troops. It's like he's the only one that suffered in the entire world and everyone in it owes him something. I'm sick of it. Be a king or give it to someone who can be. Leave CQ alone. She has told you repeatedly, she doesn't want you. We need to get off this hamster wheel like seriously. I hope after what we saw in tomorrow's previews, dickhead will go back to YB and ZY let's CQ out of prison and somewhere else to protect her. Last 6 episodes, need to wrap this up. Lots of things happening; don't need a rushed ending. Ironically the emoji for the last episode is a hotpot so I'm guessing the leads finally get to have that.
eps 33 = yeah, ZY its become idiotic again, about trusting YX again, and ZY is clueless again about politic and…
Yan Xun is the second person alive on earth, Zhuge Yue is number 1, who will protect Xing Er, no matter what, and has power to keep her safe when Zhuge Yue is not around. Zhuge Yue knows that and uses it to go and solve his family problem. So, he's smart, dear.
the screenplay writer has really truly ruined the drama, multiple events, happenings are all over the place, characterizations…
What drama are you watching? 🤣🤣🤣 It's alright if you can't follow the script, just move on with a slow and sexy drama, something with lots of wall slams and romantic tensions here and there. Those kind of drama doesn't require the viewer to think and use their brain. XD
now all can see the screen timer has become HYTT > LYR > ZKL so i hope some people should stop spreading misinformation by saying the ml was like a guest character because of first few episodes ,and also saw a person saying it was supposed to male centric drama .I don't know who told them it was supposed to be a male centric drama lol.
Like it's not only this one ,i saw similar comments whenever a male lead appeared less in any episodes ,they started complaining especially when the ml is popular one's . Yes i would love to see the ml having more scene especially if the ml is likable and the actor can act but when it comes to a heavily female centered drama ,they can't make him appear in every scene if it's not required .It's the artist knew very well .I have no problem when a drama expanded the male leads scene more than the novel but I saw many drama,won't take the name,where in order to make the male lead appearing in many scenes they added some parts which wasn't needed at all ,even gave fl's highlighted parts to him which pissed me off .This is the reason i avoided every of my favorite female centric novel adaptation (like the author QSCK's novel adaptation ) Because i know they are gonna butcher it.
That would be different case if the male leads total Screen Time is less compared to side male characters or their highlighted part has been given to others when in the end they have to take the blame if the drama become unsuccessful which is totally unfair .
I feel the most disgusted, and I feel like throwing up, when I see the main male hero, whose life principle is,…
Up until episode 31, Zhuge Yue endured a lot, sacrificed a lot, and did a lot of awful things in the name of family and loyalty, you can't blame him for trying to run away with Chu Qiao and choosing to be happy just once.
CQ has become queen in ximeng kingdom, but in the same time, she has forgotten that she is a queen dowager in…
True. Rebirth is worth watching and worth the wait. I thought I'm never gonna see the ending of Princess Agents, but they made an effort to continue the story, and though changes were made in Rebirth, I could still see and relate the plot and characters from PA. So as a fan of the drama, I'm really thankful and happy. 🥰🥰🥰
It’s not hard for kiss-asses to brag about how good it is, but the ratings prove otherwise. Let me show you…
I understand your point, and honestly, it’s okay that we see the drama differently. Everyone has their own expectations, especially when it comes to a sequel like Rebirth and its connection to Princess Agents. For me, I didn’t watch it expecting it to be exactly the same as the first season. I see it more as a continuation where the characters have already grown and changed because of everything they went through. That’s why the dynamic between Chu Qiao and Zhuge Yue feels different now—they’re no longer in a master-servant situation, but partners who fight side by side. I actually appreciate that Chu Qiao is stronger and more independent this time. It shows her development, not just as a fighter but as a leader. At the same time, Zhuge Yue still shows his strength, just in a more supportive and strategic way, which I personally find meaningful. The drama definitely has flaws, and it may not meet everyone’s expectations, but I still enjoy it for the story, the characters, and especially the performances. In the end, I think it really depends on what each viewer is looking for 😊
I watched Princess agents long time ago. I love it! Rebirth since its g a sequel, I never expected to be as good or better than the original. Sequels never are. I am enjoying the drama with some reservations. Like many people, I think the female lead was miscast. She just doesnt have the experience to pull off such a strong character. Unfortunately that really brings down the drama . However I m happy with the performance of Yun Rui. He is a good actor who gets better on every new series. Overall I think Rebirth could have been better with different , director and female lead. Having said that, I think it is a good series.
Yan Xun is sooo busy persuaded his obsession to hate her husband and was unaware of rebellion in his kingdom. Man, do your job! Your people need their king. 🙄🥴
I’m really happy that I gave this Rebirth Chinese drama a chance. It made me realize how good it truly is—it’s becoming one of the best dramas I’ve watched. The male lead, Zhuge Yue, portrayed by Li Yunrui, completely won me over. He is incredibly handsome, charming, and a very talented actor. His performance feels natural and powerful, and his martial arts skills make every fight scene even more exciting. I didn’t expect to be this impressed at first, but through this drama, he truly became my favorite—my bias. Every time he appears on screen, I can’t help but enjoy his scenes. I also appreciate Chu Qiao, the female lead. She is a beautiful and talented young actress who delivers her role so well. Her acting is strong and convincing, and her martial arts skills—especially her swordsmanship and archery—are amazing. It’s impressive how she brings both strength and emotion to her character at such a young age. Together, the male and female leads are incredible. Their chemistry, teamwork, and presence make the drama even more engaging and enjoyable to watch. The second male lead, Yan Xun, is also very impressive. His obsession with Chu Qiao is portrayed with depth and intensity, making his character both compelling and emotional. Even Chun'er stands out—her acting is so effective that you really feel her character’s emotions. Overall, most of the cast delivered strong performances. The fighting scenes, archery, and swordsmanship are all well-executed and visually exciting. Combined with the emotional storytelling, it makes the drama a truly enjoyable and memorable watch.
ep 31....Loved all the scenes with ZY...especially the scene with the Emperor and the scene with YX in his tent. YX, Consort Heilan and General Cheng are a good team.
I watched Princess Agent way back when, which led me to read the novel twice or more and was willing to give this sequel a chance. I won't lie, i made it to ep 19 painfully....and only cuz i wanted to see more of Li Yun Rui. Damn! He does look good in long hair...esp long grey hair ;) FL looks 12 years old, had a wide range of facial expressions totalling 2: surprise and one-eye crying(if that's considered an expression. Sorry, she didn't offer much). The ML was turned into a cry baby for whatever reasons especially in the earlier episodes. A complete opposite of his character in the novel. Since i read the novel a long time ago so i may be a bit fuzzy about the details, but who da hell is this zhan dude. He got more screen time than the main characters!! I don’t remember him at all, was he made up? Anyway, for those confused about all the flashbacks, it's better to read the novel for yourself. It’s quite thrilling and obviously more interesting. I guess the producers wanted to cover a lot but episodes were limited so they chose this method. It didn't pan out well, looked choppy at best and can be very confusing for 1st time viewers. So, again, read the novel. They had a good cast, but the script wasn't great imho so I'll let the cast off the hook. They did the best they could with what was given to them. I don't think I'll pursue this till the end, ep 19 is my limit. I can’t take any more of the slow-mos and zoom-ins(cringe). Yes, visuals were fantastic but if overdone, it loses flavor. Tian Tian baby, i have nothing against you darling. I first met you in Listening Snow Tower so i remember you well. I hope your acting will improve as you continue to grow. Sorry you had to come after Zhao Li Ying so we can't help but compare. You have to understand that back then she gave a solid performance and it aint easy stepping into those shoes. But i believe in you, jiayo!! Fighting :))
I watched Episodes 30–31 today, and I’m still really enjoying the drama—so far, so good! I’m especially hooked on Zhuge Yue, portrayed by Li Yunrui. He remains consistently handsome, charming, and captivating in every scene. His presence alone makes each episode even more exciting to watch. I love how he protects his Queen, Chu Qiao, especially in moments involving Yan Xun. Even his simple gestures feel very romantic—they show how deeply he cares for her. Their relationship continues to grow stronger, and I really enjoy every moment they share together. I also understand why Chu Qiao still communicates and rides with Yan Xun for the sake of alliances. It shows her wisdom and sense of responsibility, even in complicated situations. Still, for me, nothing compares to the scenes of the King and Queen together—they truly feel like partners who protect not only each other but also the entire Ximeng. The conflict is getting more intense, especially with the hidden intentions behind alliances. The revelation about the black mining in Ximeng adds another layer of tension to the story. Meanwhile, Chun'er continues to impress me—her acting is so effective that you can really feel her character. I also enjoyed the moments with Princess Helian and the general—there’s a strong sense of loyalty and teamwork, especially when he protects her. The partnership between General Huan and the General of Yong is also interesting; they work well together, even resolving conflicts among their soldiers. At the same time, the threats against Ximeng continue to grow, especially from the Faceless God Sect, which keeps creating chaos. The tension increased even more when the decree revealed that the Queen of Ximeng is a Princess of Yong, causing unrest among the people. Despite this, I truly admire how the King of Ximeng continues to protect and stand by his Queen—his loyalty is unwavering. One of the most beautiful moments for me was when the King and Queen talked about their dreams. When Zhuge Yue shared his wish for a simple life with Chu Qiao—living peacefully as husband and wife, maybe running a teashop or an inn—it felt so heartfelt and genuine. It showed a softer side of him, beyond all the battles and responsibilities. And what I love most is that no matter what Chu Qiao decides, he will always support her. I’m really hoping for a happy ending for them, even in such a chaotic world. Their love and partnership deserve peace and happiness. Overall, I’m still very invested in the story and excited for what’s coming next—especially how they will face and defeat the Faceless God Sect!
