My question is: why have you not started it yet? :D
There are lots of wuxia/period dramas that was disappointing lately. The last time that I watch a good drama is a dream of splendor and legend od zhouzhua.. and i do not want to tarnish my love for liu yuning coz i freaking love him as haudu😂😂😂
I must say.. Nam Joo Hyuk improves a lot.. He also master the art of micro expressions. He delivers the right expression, whether it's a tear jerker or lovely scene.. I commend him for that...
I remember when I saw the trailer and Lee Dong Wook was making coffee only by himself and didn’t make one to other person. i laugh so hard coz it was so accurate that when you are single for a long time, your habit started to become selfish.
Can somebody motivate me to continue watching this after falling asleep several times in episode one? This sounded…
It started to be interesting in episode 2 when Gu SUng Hyo was introduced. He was such a powerful and the heart of the drama.. Everything will revolve on him and honestly I learned a lot from him. You need to take a second look before you started to appreciate this drama. Cho Seung Wo created a perfect character of Mr. Gu. The only thing that is not right is the character of Lee Dong Wook. I didn't see his character important to be honest.. LOL.. I also wrote an article because I love this so much.. You can check this if you are still hesitating : https://mydramalist.com/article/5-shades-of-life-011012989
hmmmm.. Can't blame you.. This genre is not for all. I struggle also to finish this but after it ended, I see why this is special. The story itself was superb. Understanding the real family problem in imperial family. This is not for binge watching. You need to train yourself to watch it like you are watching a day to day happening in the household.. Hope you can pick it up. For me the best part is the relationship between them. From Eunuch to Empress to concubine to Emperor. Huai Ji and Hui Rou's story was touching and I deeply analyze the life of Empress Danshu. I love her strong personality..
