Having watched MGB since April, its 1st episode, I feel like the series has managed to pull me into a certain…
i don't know why people have problem with BL actors being straight.. gets real toxic..
What gaydar.. look at Joss's past interviews.. him and his brother on multiple occasions have talked about his girlfriends and preferences
Why can't people appreciate an actor being just an actor without trying to make up the real life couple fantasy. Gawin has said this multiple times that both of them are very professional in response to intimate scenes.
We should just be thankful that Asia has finally got a BL / actor couple like Joss Gawin. Celebrate that!... instead of these veiled comments on projecting your fantasy sexual identity on them
ok, so here are the facts as of ep 10 - suspicious things
A)
3 evil men - Marquee, Eunuch, ? -> thing to note, Marquee and Eunuch were on the same side of the power struggle group that wanted to bury empress tomb in earlier episodes.
If 3rd person is from the same side then someone from the empress family (the emperor himself is also involved as he covets Dox kingdom's secret weapon but he is too high ranking to wear a fish bracelet with his minons)
OR if 3rd person is from the other power side then it is the exiled Prince/his top aid who aims to topple government.
B) DISGUISE IS THE THEME Women can change voice, so i assume men can change voice too. Reference made to sage / master of disguises From early on, multiple references to disguises - master with his makeup Skinning - again a disguise Face contouring Masked man/woman/master
DISGUISE is AT PLAY. There is SOMEONE who is faking a face, faking a voice, and faking an identity
C) Who is liu and his master. Why is there story important?
D) Reason masked man can't be younger - ML's 2 new masters showed deference and respect towards masked man. Masked man commissioned them to train ML for the specific revenge he sought. For the political astuteness shown, masked man has to come with that experience
So, NO... it is not a young person. Likely an old man
E) Question is... what is masked man's objective. He is using ML to get to the hidden seal by also giving ML the avenue to take his revenge, thereby gaining trust... OR.. this person genuinely thinks that emperor is insane and he as a good citizen wants to protect the world
So, to conclude -
Masked Man has to be some advisor very close to the emperor !!! And either he is Emperor's right hand or Emperor's #1 enemey
****************************
Lastly, Zombie army is D's kingdom's. Emperor was very kind to princess instead of killing her... Emperor is shady
Are we even sure that masked guy is old? Maybe he is faking to distract.
Well we do have Mr. Eigth who can change voice... so someone who can change voice.. and hump.. and pretend
i wanted emperor to be the nice guy, faking it all... or some rich guy's wife
but i would still like it to be the Sage or liu (turtle tomb guy).. who is master of disguises... doesn't seem like a woman from build and how he sits etc
Can the masked man be one of the 2 sages ML talks about in turtle tomb cave? There is a clear power struggle going on.. that Marquee must be reporting to someone higher up - maybe emperor/eunuch (the ultimate bad guy)
But that tomb they went to and talked about 2 folks - turtle tomb guy (liu sthg) and his master (the balanced sage). Sage was master of appearances... masked guy looks old and is revered by ML's masters who took care of him
So, i am going to guess.. it is liu .. maybe stories about him being the bad guy are wrong/false/intentionally fabricated... and liu is master of disguise as his own master was
AND he is currently in the House of Marquee Q under some disguise... maybe even a woman.. lol
This skinning is interesting... meaning someone may be wearing a skin of a person who is actually dead (why do i think emperor is not alive)
Which episode will i get the first wow moment from the thriller/twist perspective?.. i am on ep 4
and i guess, in ep 1 they were trying to steal the emperor's seal.. whoever has it controls the court.. so likely that emperor's eunuch might be the main villain or some king's woman
and when dad sent wife and son to wake everyone up, he def. hid the seal in the tunnels
i have to start.. i watched the 1st scene - is this a zombie series?
How good is it in terms of twists/ intrigue.. every episode good.. or do i need to sit through some x number of episodes before the story gets interesting
Also, is this heavy on political, thriller or you have good dose of romance as well?
No GMMTV is cut version where you don't get NC scenes. Uncut is with spicier scenes. Ofcourse IQiyi is a paid platform and you can see in one go.. Youtube it is 4 parts as it is live airing with GMMTV version
If no, then do you have a coordination problem amongst your eyesight, typing movements, and mental processing?
Go read your comment again...
plethora of BL actors does not mean they are copy paste of each other..
Dude you have lost your marbles... stop fantasizing and just watch the drama

DISGUISE IS THE THEME
Women can change voice, so i assume men can change voice too.
Reference made to sage / master of disguises
From early on, multiple references to disguises - master with his makeup
Skinning - again a disguise
Face contouring
Masked man/woman/master

Every episode ML runs into someone who recognizes him immediately
So much so for all the training he underwent
That whip sure was something
Also, the girls = this had such good potential to be a GL

i am curious about the fish family - no heir, madam died, uncle is cute roly poly, so harmless... lol.. might just be the one
lets see
I would have used that setting to not redo count of monte Christo but the emperor himself..
Why not.. have a fake man with a king's face via plastic surgery run the kingdom on behalf of actual masterminds.. lol
and i guess, in ep 1 they were trying to steal the emperor's seal.. whoever has it controls the court.. so likely that emperor's eunuch might be the main villain or some king's woman
and when dad sent wife and son to wake everyone up, he def. hid the seal in the tunnels
then grandpa got khanin's mom killed (or could be mom liked someone else but was betrothed to khanin's dad)
