No, could careless about the other actors

Why are you on this page then?

Is there an AI version for part 2 yet?

I’ve watch so many of Liu Shi Shi’s dramas but to this very day her acting is still the worst part of her dramas. Her posture, her eyes, she expression just doesn’t feel natural.

If you can get past the first half of part one, it becomes a lot more interesting.

Smh. If I see him in another drama again I’m going to have to know if it’s a HE or SE first.

This is the second time I watched this male lead drama and both times he died. I’m traumatized now.

This is an underrated drama, worth the watch if you like xian xia dramas.

No. I needed therapy after watching this. I’m still mad at myself for finishing it.

I gave it a 9 because I didn’t want to mess the high rating but it’s was more like 8-8.5 for me. It could have ended at episode 20 but it just dragged out for another 12 episodes of nothing.

Same, the series ended for me when they died. I mean nothing about their deaths make sense.

Wait, why do we hate them?

There are so many ways to tell a story, but this one was just poorly done. A Beautiful Mind is one of my favorite movies because it pulls you right into John Nash’s mind, blurring the lines between what’s real and what’s not. Even though it’s complex, the pacing is great and everything makes sense. This show, on the other hand, feels like it’s missing a few episodes of explanation and could really use a better screen writer.

I love psychological dramas so I was excited for this one. This series had great ambition, but unfortunately, the execution fell short. The scenes felt all over the place, making it a bit hard to follow and not in a good way . It's too bad because the storyline was decent, and the actors weren’t bad either.

If you started with mood indigo first then The Novelist wouldn’t be as enjoyable.

Real, I’m on episode 6 right now and going through the comment section I get some clarifications and now Korn and Kla died.

The lighting could have been better. I’m constantly checking my brightness.

IMO the second half is more exciting than the first half.

I knew him from Lost You Forever and only finished it because of him, even though I’m a big fan of female lead (Yang Zi). Her character was not interesting but Cang Xuan carried the entire show for me.

Yeah that scene could use a few more minutes to show the destruction that LW supposedly caused. But they kinda glossed over all the politics stuff in the entire drama.
