A modern version may not be as heart-wrenching as this one. I don't think the modern ladies would want to be used…
I am still at the second-time -meeting phase. But one thing for sure is, had it not been the ending, the drama wouldn't have been so beautiful and memorable. When XF slashed her throat she was making good on her words she told LYC in the 10th episode, when she asked him to kill shifu, "I want you know the pain of living without a someone you love so dearly". I think that was LCY's ultimate punishment. But also it wouldn't have been this effective if he didn't love her the way he did. In the bts OF the last scene CXX was crying even after the scene ended, I think he momentorily lost his voice too. First, some blurring the lines that is, great acting. And second, we can feel the pain of LCY through CXX at his mortal punishment.
I already have so many things to say about the drama, and i am not even halfway yet. The characters are not that simple, like I don't hate LCY 'cause he's despicable, it's more than that. I understand his POV, but that doesn't make it less cruel and I can't forgive him either. And I would never want them to be together. I mean that's toxic. That would have made XF's character just as ordinary as any other drama fls, and the drama wouldn't have been this complex. This is just me after 15 and a half episodes. Got to let out some!
This is the best drama I've ever, ever watched (I'm a five year veteran of Korean and Chinese dramas). The obsession…
No kidding! The slow subbing is taking away my life away slowly though! the last episodes are yet to be subbed. I tried to pause and come back, but no use. It just pulls me right back in.
The masked assassins were from the Empress/Minister Gao. The Danchi warriors were from the 2nd prince. But yes,…
Thanks a lot. I happened to skip some political -plotting scenes, so, must have missed it.
So, the part where one man was arrested and tortured by the second Prince's people to false confess, was he a danchi too? And the other man whom they got to confess in exchange of some favours, was he a real danchi?
I am on episode 8 and it's breaking my heart:'( I mean, the dai chi's are barbarians and plunderers, therefore, if what they got was in a fare way and proportion then it would've been justified. But LCY used XF to infiltrate their home and destroy them, that too with the help of an even more barbaric and evil tribe. This was pure cruelty. He practically had XF bring annihilation home.
Oh My God! XD ! before even reading the review, your rating had me laughing my butt off! I love Vill, but now gonna give this one a miss! Thanx much for saving my precious time that I am gonna now use up to watch another Lakorn! lol!
That's the predicament of watching Lakorns, can't have them (completely) -- can't leave them! The utter ridiculousness and nonsense will have you go half- bald from hail-pulling, you'll curse and be unsatisfied at the end... like, ugh... I mean what do they take women for... ugh! But... then you go on watching 50 more! At least, that's me... in my all shameless glory!
It's that time of the times when the page says "episode 49 subbed" for two days, still you go on refreshing expecting another result 'cause your brain had given up on sense, a long time, from waiting like a drama-fan on maple juice, and each time you wonder -- " Am I a masochist! Why don't I learn my lesson from the past experiences!"... and... then... continue refreshing again and again. The struggle is surreal y'all!
Is wier getting more handsome woth time or what... He wasn't like that in pin anong... Now he is just shinning
True dat! He was never my favorite but lately he's been setting off some strange butterflies in my stomach! He's aging damn sexily! I am now going back and re-watching all his other Lakorns too.
Be patient. More good/bad things are coming up. Unlike many Chinese dramas, the endings tend to be rushed and…
Thanks soooo much! It is great to watch with line by line translation, but this way's good too, as long as I understand. Can't wait a whole more week. You are a great help. Tq tq tq:-)

I have finally given in and decided to start watching and going ahead without subs (the last episodes). Patience is the virtue I lack furiously. Do you know mandarin? I saw in your comments, which are very informative btw (thanks bazillion), that you've already re-watched it. Would you mind clueing me in on some what's what here and there, when I get to the non-subbed ones?
God... waiting for subs is torture! I wish the recap websites had recaps of the last few episodes, so I could just go forth without the subs. I think that's gonna be my ultimate resort anyway! Can't wait anymore!

Sorry to bother you!
Me *Define "mature"!*
Fool me once – shame on you! Fool me twice – shame on me! Try that a millionth time –"whatever"!
But mature or not, KJW's face will do d deed for me!
It's time I gave up my life and other stuff to learn the languages just for the sake of drama-watching!
good too, as long as I understand. Can't wait a whole more week. You are a great help. Tq tq tq:-)
