It seems to me that there are whole swathes of cultural preferences/different regions/different time periods/different art histories for the settings for love stories.

That relentless hyper-irony of south korean work is a blessing for some people, for others it doesnt work well.

I see what you mean, especially by appointment with political considerations.

The guys in the NWPBS seemed to be getting suspicious at this 'new' YZ.

It is a technique, not an obsession. Heighten one emotion by the fast contrasts. The viewer gives up self-control.

Ep25
I thought that was really good eye-fluttering between Gongsun and the GP. It really felt sweet. (He is only 25, but the voice helps make him more mature)

Oh that makes sense.

Arent there several levels of generals vs. being the commander?

Either I need a spoiler veil or .. I just watched a different episode.
Are you guys talking about the novel? Or the reviews?

Ep25
I dont really understand why we dont know the out come of the Marquis' (counter?)attack on the small deployment with General Shi Yue?
Is that bec we are sticking with the POV of cy at this moment?
So did the Marquis succeed?
And did she actually trade SYQ physically for the food or just extort the food by threatening to hurt him?

Ep25, the final scene in the command tent-- Chaotic cliffhanger of sorts -- The director now is showing mastery of makjang kdrama form!

I have stop thisto go to bed. My stomach is sore from laughing.

When we are done I want a digest of our funniest lines in this conversation!

that is a heck of a lot of comments for only half-way thru.

It really cracks me up!

Also it is totally realistic. These military guys always get banged up and rotate in and out of the wounded tent.

The drama is just on a whole other level of magic and professionalism and coolness.

He still will have to admit he has been lying to her. It will make her so mad because she has been made to appear foolish. She definitely has her dignity, and he is mangling it.
It will be a big slap.

impulsively possessive. What a guy.

There is so much pathetic fallacy (the natural universe reflects our emotions -- the trees weep etc, the skies go all thundery foreshadowing dark dramatics) going around. I keep wondering mistakenly if that supernatural forces are at work.
All those breezes and candles being blown out.
