Thank you. I remember another drama that made up stuff abut the ending. I guess it was a clickbait. Why release the ending so early. So she is going to end up a housewife? What about walking a path with her husband? Is he retiring from the military, too?
Have you watched A Familiar Stranger? Many like that drama very much.
Ke Ying is the FL And Cheng Lei the ML. The director Zeng Qie Jie and screenwriter Zhao Lin combo did The Killer is Also Romantic (2022) and Butterflied Lover (2022) Both favorites with many. The director did Blossom. (2024) The screenwriter did Hard to Find (2024)
I kinda feel the FL is good but not feisty enough, i don’t know how to explain it she’s not as fierce as she…
Haven't read the novel, so don't know how He Yan was written. But not all generals are the same. And the qualities that make soldiers want to follow them, to sacrifice for them, to die for them are not the same for each leader. Not every general must be a blustery George Patton. He Yan's fighting prowess would certainly inspire her soldiers to fight for her. Probably the best general that few know about. Field Marshal William Slim, known as "Uncle Bill", was renowned for his exceptional leadership qualities. He was a soldier's soldier, respected for his courage, determination, and ability to inspire confidence in his troops, particularly during the challenging Burma Campaign of World War II. He was also known for his empathy, strategic thinking, and focus on the well-being of his soldiers. Another that might have He Yan's cocky attitude might be General Terry Allen (Terry de la Mesa Allen Sr.) He commanded the 1st Infantry Division (the Big Red One) and his aide de camp was Theodore "Teddy"Roosevelt Jr. The men were very much alike. Both were aggressive, cared for their men, and had little respect for prim and proper military appearance. They were also both outsiders to the West Point club, as neither of them had graduated from the famous academy.
I swear that is exactly what I am going through I am trying to find a drama that I can binge watch until this…
Check your viewed and to view list. Mini-drama Qinchuan's Veil of Vengeance (2025) with Christy Guo might be good if you like a strong and strategic FL. Dominion and Devotion (2025) Huang Hao Yue FL by the same woman director with a strong ML and an intelligent FL.
Some people wonder about women passing as men soldiers in the past. Google women passing as male soldiers in the past. You might be surprised.
Deborah Sampson served 17 months in the Continental Army.
Hannah Snell Served with the British Army and later deserted to join the Royal Marines. Fell out with her Sgt and received 500 lashes. Escaped discovery by the way her arms were tied and her small breasts. In India with the Royal Marines, in battle, was wounded 11 times, once in the groin and five times in her leg. After battle she was sent to a hospital where she was seen by two physicians. Avoided detection by removing the bullet by herself or was aided by a local woman. Her crewmates noticed that she didn't shave and nicknamed her Miss Molly Gray.' So she began flirting with local women.

Any drama recommendations so i have something to watch while i wait for episodes? (i have too much free time rn)
Serialbinger; Rather than overload you with lots of recommendations, Just one that I'm re-watching for the 4th or 5th time. Someone I respected said that My Treasure (2021) was good and it was. Modern day 'due diligence' world. The female is smart and plucky. The male is dark, competent and the mentor you wish you had. Her Mother is frustrating and endearing and a free spirit. Watching them scrimp to survive where each rmb is important is endearing. Thank you and take care.
I dont know maybe its just me but the original writer being female shows pretty hard.There is a lot of female…
Mephisto; You are entitled to your opinions and I respect that. After skimming through this thread, and I don't really care for argumentative threads, I think that female viewership is very important and many dramas take that into consideration. One article from 2021 said that last year female viewership was up to 62%. Up from 57% from 2018. I think that tastes, even along gender lines is subjective and themes, from realistic to wish fulfillment all have their place. imho I think that this drama fills the wish fulfillment and its high score on MDL reflects that, at least with the overseas viewership. \Thank you and take care.
