Also, I love how both of our leads are subtly proud of each other. The little smirks and expressions on their face when they hear of each other's accomplishments is so cute.
I finished Ep.9 and why did they get my head turning like that when he casually said, Miss He? 😲 but why did she not seemed to be as fazed by it. I know she's alarmed and keeping cool to not reveal her real self but I'm so horrible I'd instantly probably give it away with my reactions. lol
I like the drama so far but I feel the same about establishing He Yan. I wish we had more context to connect with…
See. When I hear her inner thoughts, it helps to remind me that she's putting on a facade so I'm ok with that part. It's us having to watch her wanting to reclaim everything but I can't seem to hype her up bc all I can base things off is the betrayal from her family.
Omg! Watching Ep. 5 I kept forgetting that he already knew she was a girl. That lantern scene was so stinking cute with his cute reactions to her actions. Eeekkkk. I love them so much.
Despite my gripes on the choppiness/editing, I can see why they took this approach with the adaptation. The novel…
As a non-reader of the novel, thanks for your first point. I'm trying my best to understand and be patient with the backstory because I was hoping to see more of her glorious general days.
She is a general like GENERAL GENERAL. doesnt she have any followers or bodyguards or anything? She got power…
That's my thing too. I question the intensity of her being a General because if ML is also a General with his own team, shouldn't she? Or even have a sidekick of some sort. I'm patiently waiting to see how they reveal her backstory if they do because I truly want to vibe with her baddie general side.
I just finished Ep. 3 and I think it's pretty ok. I only wish we could get a little more emphasis on her hard work as a general to truly understand and connect with her determination to reclaim everything. Unless, the little bits of backstory in the beginning of each episode is supposed to help build that then my apologies.
Side note: I know LMD has been AI swapped with Li Qing but there's something off about it. At a quick glance it still looks like LMD but I know its not him. I've watched a good amount of LMD's dramas and I still see more of his demeanor in the character so I wonder if that's what makes it kind of unnatural to watch.
Yo, I'm still in shock we're really getting this one. It feels so unreal with all the setbacks that played with our emotions this whole year but I'm ready for my August to be on fire!! Zhou Ye and Cheng Lei delivering baddie vibes is all I need. 🔥🔥
