Title Royal Nirvana Spoiler
So I started watching this again after almost a year of having it on hold because, as you've mentioned, it is…
LOL

I was NOT pissed .. It's one of the BEST heartbreak ending imaginable - I am a sucker for well made dramas which end 'open' or 'tragic' or with some sort of redemption ..

OMYGAWD!!
Soul Mate? Drama Mate?

It's my Go TO Drama .. and I am holding off on my rewatch for a JUICY VERY LONG BREAK .. so I can BINGE FULL ON

Every day the thought swirls in my head : when should I begin ..

I want to take notes on my 2nd round ..

I wish this would come to VIKI

YOUKU is OK with the subtitles .. BUT one can sense the DEEP dialogues that are going on and we are JUST catching the rim of it .. ESPECIALLY the poetry :-D

Ah, ok... well she was much better in that IMHO but she is actually a very good actress, this was just not her…

Hmmm.
You should not give up 🤗

Have a taste at least - 2 eps 😜
Of LADY LIBERTY

Just the intro VO might grab you - and the striking OST

Ah!!

No wonder I too couldn’t get into UNTAMED beyond first taste.

I returned for re-look with huge gaps between each tasting - but nope.

Didn’t work.

It IS so highly praised though and I wonder if I should taste it in the middle like in the 15th or 20th episode- and see if it makes me curious

LOL

Thank you : I also got seduced into the drama (freshly off of SOKP and ZLH charm) about 2 years ago.
But by a few episodes I felt that 'thud thud' of falling into a slow groan of a pace and the plot being scattered to the winds ..

THANK GOD I dropped it back then

Yes I have heard - NIF is strongly beckoning in this drought
(ONE standout modern drama though totally swept me away - Lady Liberty)

How well described : enpoint with the characters the actors and the plot

I came away with the same reactions and feelings : and rated it 7.5 / 10
I “live rate” a drama as I watch 😜

Mine started with a 9 and steadily dropped until it was scraping 4-5

What the heck was it with the “cringe tropes”

The characters were “schematic” unlike the characters in some of the best period dramas

I am saving this much touted top Drama (NIF) for a long binge- been 2-3 years though 🤭

I think hearing that it doesn’t involve any “strong” female role and a solid “relationship” thread in it may be a reason.

I ploughed through fantastic period set drama (both slice of life and wuxia tinged) which had that as a strong element even though it wasn’t the main focus at times.

But currently running out of solid dramas with meaty explorations of the human condition under an expert production team - I’m eyeing it for a good “dinner” (hope it proves to be Michelin level)

Several times I attempted Untamed : just couldn’t get into it

The style didn’t hit the spot even after the full Ep

Try : Royal Nirvana : You will be thoroughly shaken intellectually and emotionally
Also try : Joy of Peaceful Serenade

And : Joy of Life (wuxia but I like to club it with these)

I recall dropping it - just too much pumped for her size to carry the weight of the role : cartoon ish - dropped fast
