I'd go as far as to say it's amusing how much better the acting performances are in this than even your decent…
lwk u cant expect good acting from idol dramas, they're all meh. alot of the actors in this are older and more experienced, hence their amazing performance
This drama might start off a bit bland and slow-paced for some people in maybe the first 4 or so episodes because of the constant switching back and forth between the past and present, but PLEASE push through. It's an amazing drama and completely worth watching (esp the plot twists), the 2nd half was a 10/10.
guys its bland asf, there's no hook to it or anything that'll motivate u to keep watching. Its like one of those dramas that u go back to finish watching only when ur bothered or in the mood (which I personally think is not worth ur time). What a bummer bc I really did like Alen Fang's character
it's a beautiful drama, I especially loved how everything connects so seamlessly and how an interaction from episodes earlier on would somehow relate to episodes way later and isn't introduced in a rush. Rated 8.5/10
However one thing I was annoyed about were definitely the time skips, it was really hard to keep track of time in the drama unless they mentioned it themselves. It definitely also got boring at times, but I just put it on x2 and it was fine. (mind u I get bored REALLYYYY fast so maybe this was just a me thing lmao)
I'm currently watching this. I'm on episode 9 (I randomly came here to check if it’s a happy ending to avoid…
omg noo I dont think you're biased at all and completely respect your opinion, I love how you've said this so respectfully. Maybe it was her makeup that got to me esppp the eyes. Problem with Meng Ziyi (FL) is that her makeup is almost identical in every drama so it's no wonder she gets criticised.
Also, we probably do have very differing tastes bc I dropped Untamed too 😭😭 Maybe you'll like this drama unlike me
heyy guys, I'm currently stuck at ep21 and I've left it on hold for a longgg time now. I started watching this drama because of the plot and all the good reviews, but now that I've watched half of it, it seems kind of...mid? FL's acting is also reallyyyy disturbing me, I love her in variety shows but she lwk can't act 😭😭
Is the rest of the drama worth continuing or should i just skip to the end and ask for a chat gpt summary lmao?
guys I'm on ep22 and I'm struggling to keep going, it was more interesting when they were frenemies😭😭icl alot of the prior episodes also pissed me off bc of the sheer amount of times the ML saved the FL like srsly the "saving the damsel in distress" trope is ok but not when it reoccurs like 5 times within a few episodes 😀
icl plot was really good. However, the execution and order of scenes could've been so much better to really bring out the suspense of a mystery thriller bc it just felt so all over the place. In every single ep, important events were skipped and only mentioned at the end in the narration of their plan and success. It just took so much nice stuff from the plot away, ESPECIALLY in the last 2 episodes like seriously, I didn't even feel the suspense, the whole plan just came out in the narration at the end leaving me confused at the plot twist and so unsatisfied.
The lead actresses facial expressions were also super exaggerated at many points and made me not want to look at her face most of the time😭
havent read the manhua for this but she is supposed to be veryyy pretty n the ML is supposed to be The 7th prince
Thank uu, I just went back and read the manhua synopsis, and it is this one! Here's the link for anyone who wants to read it: https://manhwaclan.com/manga/sijin/
