How is it bad writing? The tea was awarded by the Emperor and before that he was praising their workmanship so you put the 2 together, there is no cause for suspect. Also, the girls are not in charge of spies...only their leader is and from her face, she must have known that something was off with the tea.

I don't mind the cross dressing as long as she still looks like a girl. In some dramas, they look too manly and I just can't. Speaking of this, the cross dressing for YM here is better than her disguise as a man in Ten Miles.

This drama rocks. Finally found something worthwhile watching after Ancient Love Poetry. The story intrigues me and I just want to watch on to find out more.

You're not the only one for sure. But I like her so I don't mind. Her voice suits her face. Haha. As long as she's not playing damsel in distress, I'm good with her voice.

He's fully of wicked lines especially towards his eunuch.

I like both the FML and SML but I find the makeup for FML is overdone. Or is it a filter they use? Cos in some scenes, he looks like he was photoshopped or had botox. It's affecting my enjoyment of the show. Thank God the fringe of the SML is looking normal again cos it sure was weird at first. I like this drama up to ep 16. I watched ep 17 and 18 and feel my interest dimming especially after seeing what they've done to the stepsis and what she said. Maybe I'll take a break and come back to this later when more episodes are available.

I like the battle scenes a lot. Pretty epic. I couldn't help but compare it with The Long Ballad. The latter could have been grand if they had real battle scenes. Anyway, Yangmi really kicks ass!

Yes, that's why I suspected. Then right after I posted my earlier comment, I watched the trailers and it's confirmed.

Think the stepsis isn't the daughter of Mr Mu.

But in that era, they probably don't have such modern medical equipment. Even the surgery was a first for the hospital.

Aside from the stepmom and stepsis, I like all the ladies in this cast. Love their hairstyle and wardrobe! And the guys...love both the FML and SML.

She overacts so that we know she's the villian. LOL. But yeah, I find her voice annoying too.

More like you need to drop the drama cos she's the main lead and she ain't going anywhere.

I like him better in Crush. Is his voice dubbed here? Doesn't sound like him. And his hair...what's that funny twirl? LOL.

Thanks. Watched Rebirth up till ep 16 I think and then I dropped it. May come back to it but right now, it's not calling out to me. Haha.

Lol. I sense your excitement! I'm excited for Evan too. Still replaying Crush cos no other C-drama or even K-drama caught my attention.

I'm looking forward to watching this but feeling a tad nervous as well cos I remember reading somewhere that the director pitched this as a musical drama? I could be wrong. But I'm not a musical drama/movie kinda person, at least not from watching on a screen. I will only watch live musical shows if you know what I mean. Anyway, gotta just wait and see.

Sigh. Why do people need to try to one-upped an actor/actress against another? There are 3 main roles in this show. At the end of the day, it's an opportunity to showcase their talent. I'm sure many of you have watched dramas/movies where even a minor role can shine and become massively memorable. JCW was considered 2nd lead in Empress Ki but he definitely shone in that role. I'm sure many remember him in that role and followed him since.

Ep 14...I found it flat...I hope the last 2 episodes pick up and close logically well.

After watching ep 13, I was reminded of the dress that CYJ wore to the art auction which was the same as the one KMN wore. It was prepared by AYJ. If I remember correctly, he said it belonged to his aunt. I wonder if it was just a coincidence or is there more to that.

I'm here for him too.
