Really? I knew they were really good friends and that Nadech could not avoid smiling everytime she was mentioned but thought that it might have been one-sided. I just hope they are actually dating and its not fake news or their company made them since a lot of people ship them together and it would be good for their image (it happens more often than we think).

But if it is true, then that is amazing. They look really good together.

Welcome to the club. I know exactly how you feel. My first thought after I finished it was: What am I going to watch next? Is there a drama out there that I would enjoy as much as this one and that I havent watched yet?

Maybe you are right. I have only watched the first 2 episodes so I have no idea of future revelations but with only watching the 1st episode, the killer’s actions weren’t making much sense. That is the beauty of it. Things are not always what they seem. Something that might look dumb or make no sense in the first few episodes of a drama could be later explained and turn out to be some amazing plot line and a plot that seems logic sometimes ends in a way that make us all go WHAT??

It was a little better or not as bad as some other chinese dramas of this genre that I have watched recently. I like chinese historical dramas but I have noticed the ones with a lot of fantasy/wuxia/supernatural elements are not my cup of tea. And most of them end in tragedy so I might as well just watch the ones that are realistic.

Yeah. I have to compliment the production team tho. They stayed true to the novel and did not avoid the tragic ending (honestly, this was tragic from the beginning with his betrayal when he killed her grandfather and then when they both lost their memories of each other) but for the people that like happy endings they made a few bonus super short episodes with them living together in the modern days. It was a smart move because they managed to please everyone, the fans of the novel and the fans of happy endings.

Although I know the reason why he turned out like this, it still did not give him the right to use other people for his own benefit ruining many lives in the process. In the end he "reaped what he soweth". Every action has consequences - good or bad. You cannot go around being cruel for your own selfish reasons and expect to lead a happy life after, especially when most of the cruel things you did or caused mainly affected the person you "love".

(I said "love" because I have a hard time believing he truly loved her. Sure, she was the most important person in his heart. but he did not love her more than he loved himself or he would have not hurt her several times for his own interests. True love means sacrificing your own interests for the happiness of the person you love and the truth is he never did that).

Yeah, but my vast experience from watching CSI, Criminal Minds and similar tv series taught me that most psychopaths are smart. And they also have their preferences like taking souvenirs with them or setting up the crime scene in a certain way, and when they do that it is because they want the police and/or whoever shows up there to see it that way, they think they are painting a picture or something. So it does not make much sense what he did here, seemed more like a mistake in the writing of the scene.

36 is not THAT old and he looks younger than that. If you think he is old my guess is you are either very young or you are into younger guys. Although I agree there are a lot of actors that look better than him, I would not go as far as to say he looks average.

The tags say eccentric female and male leads but it is not only the characters that are eccentric, the drama itself is eccentric. It is definitely not my cup of tea but I have not decided yet if I like it or if I will feel like dropping it soon. Anyway, it is only 10 episodes so I might as well stick with it.

I had it on my plan to watch list for many months while waiting for subs and honestly I was expecting it to be a little different and that might have reduced my enjoyment while watching it.

EDIT: Now that I have finished it I am not confused anymore. I liked it but I didn’t love it. It took me about 3 episodes to get into the story, considering this only has 10 episodes, it took too long. It is not bad I guess, or I would have dropped it, but I doubt I will ever re-watch it.

I had to pause the first episode just to say something and I won’t mark this as a spoiler since it happens in the first 5 minutes of the 1st episode.

Why go to the trouble of setting the crime scene in a certain way (serving tea and everything) if you are going to blow up the place?? This criminal is not only a murderer but also dumb.

Yeah, I think it was a waste to not use the stalker plot for longer. But I guess it made sense he was caught so soon since he was pretty careless in his stalking and could not keep away from drugs, which only made him dumber.

But overall I really liked the drama. I have been recently watching a lot of historical chinese dramas with mostly a lot of deaths and tragic endings so I really needed a drama like this one.

I know what you mean and I kinda wanted them to get together too. But I think they were going for a more realistic ending. Having almost everyone at the firm become a couple would be too cliche and convenient. And the entire drama I was getting the vibe that this would happen. She gave off the impression that she was disappointed with her last relationship and did not want to get into another one anytime soon, just focusing on her daughter and job.

Still, the ending made it look like in the future they might get together so I was not really bothered by them not being together at the ending.

I kept not wanting to watch the last few episodes, not because I was forcing myself to finish but because I was enjoying it so much that I did not want it to end.

I have seen several law related dramas (lawyers, prosecutors, police officers, judges) yet I felt this one was still new somehow. The romance was just my cup of tea, not too rushed, not too slow, I liked the actors and the characters they played, there was definitely chemistry between them (and it has nothing to do with Goblin cause I dropped that one and still thought the actors had good chemistry here), I also liked the supporting characters at the law firm, most of all for the light comedy they provided.

Of course it is a matter of taste, but I personally found this to be one of the most entertaining kdramas of the past few months.

Yeah. It has been years since I last re-watched the anime but I still remember I smiled at the romantic scenes between the main leads, I smirked during the funny moments, I felt frustrated when certain things happened to the characters and even dropped a few tears here and there.

But the movie did not cause any emotion in me, I think I even yawned at some point. Other than the scene the actor playing Yuu cries near the end, everything was so bland. When that happened I remembered how in the anime they both suffered so much because of him misunderstanding and thinking they were half-siblings. TT

So true. I read the comments before watching but still watched it because I wanted to know for myself how bad this could be. XD

I read all the comments so I knew what to expect. But I still watched it just to see for myself how bad this is. The comments are completely true. This is rushed, lacks logic in several situations, even when it was trying to go for the dramatic/frustrating theme, you kind feel more like laughing because it is just that bad.

The characters are all trash aside from the female lead. This is not the fault of the actors, they played their role. It is the writing that is so bad that most people without any experience in writing could have done better than this. I feel like they did no research on blindness and how blind people perceive things and they have no idea what being in love is like. If they did, they would have not written such a dumb character to be the male lead of the story.

What if, just like in this drama, and in other dramas, a lot of the facts in history are actually not true but caused by rumours and fake accusations from people that will somehow benefit from them? Sure, she might have actually had affairs and other kids, but there is always the possibility that some things were not true or only half-truths, who knows? We have no way to know for sure. Gossip, rumours and schemes are very scary things and can ruin a person’s reputation forever.

Just a few days ago I finished watching Queen Dugu and now this one. Although completely different stories, a lot of frustrating moments were present in both, as expected from a chinese historical drama. I honestly don’t know why I keep doing this to myself. I have a love-hate relationship with chinese historical dramas. They frustrate me to no end for several reasons (usually the way most of them end) yet I cannot stop watching them. Sigh

By the way, some things in the plot kind of reminded me of Empress Ki, but I won’t really compare them since Empress Ki was one of my favourite korean historical dramas and this one will probably be forgotten once I watch a few more chinese historical dramas.

Hi Norah. Yeah, I have just finished it and although the drama itself is quite light, at the end they are in different worlds so it is not really a happy ending.

Yeah, at the end they are in different worlds, not together, so no, no happy ending.
