she really did throw that broken piece of cup at her eldest sis and acting almost become a reality accident...it got me worried for a hot minute. Also, that ugly granny is the Luo aunt, isn't she? there's a good chance that his brother might survive that fire.
U can watch the trailer for next two episodes it seems the Tian family will forcibly take all the pine trees away…
honestly, she should have stayed her butt out. When she was in crisis, Li Zhen dropped everything and helped her out. and this is how she repays her "best friend".
lol...then all the experts who graded all the Inks "Supreme" be like "f**k our expretise right!! Why do we even bother spending so much time on the selection process." As much as I like to see Li Ink to triump, I don't like the story taking this route.
I don't understand RongHua's plot behind bringing Sage to the Tribute Ink selection. First, I thought she was there to help the Tian family, though she was expressing stern resentment in her body language. But now, the great Sage is saying the ink is missing the wood element/spirit that represents Huizhou, and is suggesting Tian Ink change from styrax to pine soot oil. So, is RongHua there to sabotage her family?? I also thought, the rules aren't allowed to change the formula/recipe once selected for submission.
Does this drama worth my time? I just finished "Kill me love me", will you encourage me to watch this?Rate…
This drama follows a talented young woman whose family was outcasted after a sudden misfortune, but build her business from the ground up and become a master in the male-dominated ink-making industry. If you are looking for pure eye candy, a fluffy romance, or a lighthearted, low-stakes watch, this might not be for you, especially if you aren't typically a fan of Yang Zi. (I love YZ so i maybe be a bit bias). Howeverrrrtr, if you appreciate deep storytelling centered around the ancient craft of ink-making, meticulous attention to detail, and powerhouse acting from the cast over a male lead's "face card," you will love it. Honestly, ML's character is primarily there to support Yang Zi's character journey, so he doesn't get the massive amount of screen time typical for a romance (he shows up on ep6 and we're on ep20 and there is no romance between the two except one-sided ML's interest towards her), but his performance delivers where it counts. The drama was superbly made.
The 4th aunt does nothing to contribute to the Li ink business (or it is insignificant that it was not shown here). All she does is hold that decade old grudge on someone who has nothing to do with the tragedy and lost as much in life as hers. Cannot wait the episode Li Zhen gets an upper hand on her and 3rd uncle.
NOOOO...this series worth way more than a 7.7 The drama is a top tier Wuxia: cast, set design, costumes, script, fight choreography, everything!! I don't get it. One might say it's because there is no fluff element but series like Strange Tales has gotten better feedback without fluff element.
The hair styles of the kids are so cute. I'm only on ep2 but it very different from other costume dramas I've seen. It is really good: costumes, hair styles, color grading, set design, editing, camera works, cinematography, writing, acting, ...they're all top tier. People giving it low score because of a sad start?
Costume BLs will always have a place in my heart. On top of competing other mordern-day bls, they have to level up the production to not look cheap. Production wise, I see a big step up from MYATB and KTL.
I saw a new short reel on youtube and (Thai) people are hating Lang's acting written in Thai. I don't know what this poor boy did to deserve this kind of hate....first with Ohm and now with August. As someone who have seen all Love Destiny (multiple times) and its saga and Kidnap, I like what I have seen so far. https://youtube.com/shorts/0u3BntdTXrY?si=OUDtlaop9cr1-aZz
