drama-tically

That sucks but I guess good on them for choosing better production teams. Hopefully we don't have to experience another PA torture

Yeah, the second half of the drama was just focused on Yan Xun's story to the point that ZLY as the main character was being sidelined. He just took over as the main character. The entire second half was badly done and the ending was just rushed (if you can call it an ending).

I did not know about the copyright issue though. I only heard that the drama adapted only the first half of the novel.

so you bought these two back together and didn't make a season 2 of princess agents? THE AUDACITY

Most people are happy enough to live in their ignorant world where China is a homogenous country lol. The world is a lot more diverse than people think. Even seemingly homogenous countries are not really homogenous, it's just that the minority groups are not so well known in the mainstream outside world

to be fair, i once sent my laptop for servicing to get the battery replaced and they actually asked for my password. and it wasn't a random shop too, it was the laptop company's official service / repair shop

maybe you can watch while commuting to college

imagine how little dialogue there would be if they took out all the cuss words

that scene where yeon jin was at the shaman's place with her mum and dong eun appeared. she really looked like a ghost

i heard that there really are a lot of bullying cases in Korea so honestly I won't be surprised if this is true

I really loved this show but I hated the ending. I didn't like both endings. I feel like they should have ended it after last fight. Everything after that just felt like it was being dragged out and it was hard to understand.

I honestly don't remember but I don't think so

It's the never-ending shedding of tears for me :") I watched this because I switched on the tv and wanted to watch something. I was not expecting to shed buckets of tears AHHHHHH 😭

This was nice but he can't beat the drama version of Tatsu in my opinion lol. Also I kinda wished there was less talking but this one had it's own charm

If anyone's wondering, this case has finally been solved. There's a two part documentary and you can watch it on youtube. What actually happened is worse than in the movie. The police actually arrested the wrong person and he was imprisoned for over 2 decades :( The actual murderer is very much a psychopath

You've got a point

True. Him going evil would have been worse, such a cliche.

This is a nice interview. We need one for Drama Master!!

yikes, thanks for telling. Was going to watch this for Zhang Bin Bin. Seriously, he deserves better. Seems like most of his shows are trash. What a waste of his acting skills

Ah yes right, he saved A'Sun! Almost forgot about that 😅 Also, when I said he did his job well I was mainly referring to as an envoy. Didn't make it clear. He certainly was very influenced by his friendship in the beginning, trying his best not to let Changge get caught. This is my first time watching a drama with Alen Fang so I didn't really have much expectations for him or his character going in. I just feel like he didn't do much. I watched the video and he's right. He said he only sees Leyan as a sister but somehow acts competitive around Haodu especially when it's concerning Leyan but at the same time, it's Changge that he likes. This wasn't really what bothered me though. I think it's more so because I feel like we didn't really get to know Wei Shuyu that well as a character? With Leyan and Haodu we get to know them a bit better, their relationship with their family, what they are like as a person, the things they've been through. But with Wei Shuyu it feels like he's just there. We don't really get to see any sort of character development that we get to see with Leyan, or even Haodu in terms of his relationship with his father, and how he kind of changed a bit when he got more comfortable around Leyan and their relationship progressed beyond that of princess and bodyguard. (I'm comparing him to Leyan and Haodu because I feel like all 3 of them are supposed to be the main supporting casts)

Wei Shuyu feels almost like a background character except he's always around the main leads. To me it felt like he was trying to claim credit that he didn't deserve especially when after Hao Du found Leyan, Wei Shuyu said that he would have found her first had he not been called back by the emperor or something. And the fact that he was given another job by the Emperor despite massively failing the previous one by letting Leyan go missing. Also, we hardly see him fight at all, and yet when he was about to join the challenge for Leyan's marriage, he was so confident about winning against the Young Khan?? But yeah...he didn't feel like a very solid character to me, unlike the others.

And no, your comment didn't affect my viewing! It's nice to just have these kinds of discussions

I just finished the drama and...did I miss something? 😳 He does his job pretty well I guess, he's impartial and does what he's supposed to do without getting influenced by his emotions or friendships. But...I kind of still think he didn't meaningfully contribute much to the story.
