Just like others I struggled to get into this and abandoned it, but recently started working on it again. I was kind of coasting along and then that battle between Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing happened in ep 13 and that was amazing! Favorite battle by far. I also loved the talk Wang Ye had with Zhang Chu Lan in the following episode. "I'm here to provide you with a choice, not make the choice for you." Yup, he's cool, I'm definitely a fan of Wang Ye now. I hope he's around some more, just started 17 and miss seeing him.
Not my brain telling me I could watch the next episodes once I finished my homework and chores 😭 knowing full well I don't get more until tomorrow, huff. And I have a school research trip tomorrow so won't have time to watch it TT-TT
it is a human drama. wait til you get past episode 4 then you'll understand the description better
Is it? Admittedly I've only watched the first two episodes so far, but like someone else said it was so similar to Junji Ito and rather horrifying lol, thanks, I'll keep that in mind. For reference I was expecting something more similar to Mystic Pop-Up Bar or Midnight Diner, this is definitely much darker in tone but it's fun. I'll continue with it once it's done airing, thanks again
The description mislead me, I thought this would be a heartwarming, human drama 😳 I really need to learn to read the tags first, oh well, still enjoying it even though it's clearly completely different from what I expected
This was a balm after watching so many Chinese dramas, is it so hard to write it so everyone is alive and happy at the end? It doesn't have to be every time, but 80% of the time would be good T-T I liked the end, but would have liked everyone to tell the Emperor that his son never wanted the throne and wasn't going to take it after the second rebellion succeeded. And he was trying to stop the rebellion. Though he probably realized that at the end. Or maybe not since he's crazy. I just wanted to see his regret and horror, so that was unsatisfying. Also, I was already iffy about it because -consent- but ignored that because of the tone and the reason and lack of feelings, but after finding out about the 2ML's true colors I was very grossed out that Nokdu kissed that trash can, even though it was an "emergency" measure. They built him to be comedic side dude and then turned him into the main villain 😭
I avoided this comment section like a plague cause I didn't want to get spoiled on the ending, just finished and…
I got busy with the real world and fell behind with the last 10 or so episodes so I also avoided this comment section like the plague lol (until now, just finished😭) . Normally I wait until they're all out anyway, but for this one I was actually watching as it aired and was enjoying coming on here every day to read comments so it was especially hard to avoid it 😆
I suppose it depends on what/who you watch the drama for? Many were complaining about the chemistry for the leads,…
Oof, not a good sign if he was better in SoKP honestly, lol. I don't really watch for people but for the story/plot, but not so great acting can be distracting for me, especially in the mains. For him in particular, it's really weird and I don't know why this is, but aside from his acting abilities I just get weirdly uncomfortable when I watch him. It's so strange. Thank you for the kind response! I'll probably continue to save this one for a severe drama drought xD
I've been avoiding asking this because fans scare me, but I've finally worked up the courage. So, I didn't really like Zhang Ling He's acting in Story of Kunning Palace or in some of his other works. I wanted to know from people that have seen him in other stuff if he does a better job in this one? Since it comes before SoKP I'm wary, but a good director makes all the difference. I know this is rather subjective and a matter of opinions, just wanted some input on whether people think he did a good job or not. Hopefully I worded that okay
Man, I really need to come back and watch this. I remember I watched it when it came out because I had been waiting about a million years for it and made it to episode 18 subbed. Then they weren't updating, and then they dropped it all raw and I skipped to around the last 15 episodes just to see what was happening while I waited on subs, and then was hooked and ended up watching until the end raw and improving my Chinese while I was at it 😅 I was supposed to go back and watch the giant middle section I skipped, but I was so satisfied with the end and the feels I never did. Missed most of the angst and toxicity~ Anyway, I really do need to give this a proper watch one day lol
someone tell me where I can find the sad nanana he sings. I’ll keep it in my playlist to torture my soul. I…
I've also been curious about that to torture my soul too ever since they played it in episode 6 lol, I'm hoping it's in the instrumentals, but I haven't checked yet
Stupid youtube keeps sending me shorts for this show and I already wanted to watch it, but now I really want to watch it, but I'm already waiting with Fangs of Fortune and can't handle another daily uploader. TT-TT I'm a binger not a spreader, stop sending me clips youtube! Can't wait until this finishes airing
I really need to learn to read the tags first, oh well, still enjoying it even though it's clearly completely different from what I expected
