I am still on ep 9 since the episodes doesn’t get release until 3AM for me so I am taking my time but Joe Chen is something else!
She has range and I never thought that I’d hate her but she plays the evil stepmother so well!!
The sweet Joe Chen that I grew up loving is gone. She’s amazing! Her performance is blowing me away! I am here for WXY but I think that I am staying for Joe Chen!
Is it just me or is Duke Su one of the laziest Dukes in dramaland? He’s either drinking tea or just sitting around with his fan even when he’s working. Lol.
I agree with you on everything, especially the age aspect. When she’s standing next to WXY or the younger casts, you can definitely see her age. That was one of my concern. I thought that when she’s back in the capital and is cleaned up, she’ll look younger, but you can still see her age. The age gap doesn’t bother me at all. I am only concerned with how she looks among the younger casts. If she has a baby face like Ariel Lin, then it’ll be believable but she has a mature face so it’s not as convincing to me.
Amazing! This is probably his breakout role! I love him as an actor since First Love, but his historical dramas weren’t it. But this role, this is HIS role. It was made for him. So far, he doesn’t have the most screen time, but when he’s on screen, he stands out.
Oh so this drama has a strong female lead? Cause i saw a few clips of this evil woman from the jiang family trying…
Oh she’s strong and smart! She understands that the Jiang family doesn’t like Jiang Li so she’s scheming against them by putting up a front. You will see how she deals with them with one blow in ep 5.
Just finished binge watching the first 5 episodes and what can I say!
WXY did an amazing job. As I stated in my comments before, he was outstanding and I didn’t like his other historical dramas due to the story line but this one, if it continues the same way as these first 5 episodes, this will definitely be his breakout role.
FL - she is amazing. I loved her and how strong she is. I hope that she continues to outsmart the Jiang and Shen family. I haven’t seen any of her dramas, but she’s amazing here. My only concern is that when she is standing next to the other young actresses/actors her age shows. I know that she is only 33 but you can tell that she’s older than WXY. But overall, she’s a strong FL.
Joe Chen - I am amazed by her! I grew up watching her and I have always adored her as an actress, but I have always watched her as the innocent and naive girl with lots of love. She plays the evil stepmother so well. I have new profound respect for her. I cannot imagine seeing her without Ming Dao but wow, she blew me away with her performance.
Ai Mi was also amazing. I have always liked her and I do see her having a successful career when she gets older. I cannot wait to see her play a female lead role soon.
YCY - even though was a minor character, she did an amazing job. I have always liked her and she did have a few good dramas but besides Love You 7 Times, she really shined as her part in this drama.
For now, this is a 10/10 for me. I am bad at ffwding dramas that I watch, but so far I didn’t need to.
Wow…is all I can say about this so far! Loved the cinematography. That beginning, was so amazing. I was hooked! I have only watched 2.5 episodes, and I haven’t ffwd it.
I have never seen any of the FL’s work, but I thought that she did an amazing job. My only concern is that you can definitely see her age when she stands next to WXY. But then again, maybe it’s because she’s not cleaned up and stuff so I might have a change of heart after she became Jiang Li.
WXY was AMAZING with his entrance. I loved him in this. Fell in love with him with First Love, and I didn’t like any of his historical dramas and I was wishing for more of them in Amidst A Snowstorm of Love, but boy, he blew me away.
Ai Mi, she’s also amazing as ever. I cannot wait to see her play a main role in the future. She was always my favorite supporting role/ maid. She’s an amazing actress.
I can’t wait to finish the rest of the episodes tomorrow. I wanted to binge watch everything tonight, but I have things to do so can’t stay up too late.
Loving it so far. I’m hoping that the greatness in these episodes that I’ve seen so far stays.
What?! The last two ep was so…I don’t even have a word to describe it. I’m so confused. They wrapped up the ending in such a stupid and ridiculous way.
How the heck did the emperor and Prince Jin and the empress dowager “mend” their relationship? Why did the obsessive princess became good all of a sudden? Because of a few words? How the heck did no one else realized that she was 1. Still pregnant and 2. Have given birth?! What did Lady Yunying died of and why didn’t the royal family give her a proper funeral?! Where did he find her? When did he find her? When did he find out about the child?!
So many questions, and zero answers to them.
Also, the time is so off. She was barely showing when Lady Yunying and Wan got married but then she gave birth after her death?! AND, if the attempt on the miscarriage took place when she was about 4 mos pregnant, how did no one even know that she was still pregnant? Granted that she was in “hiding” but she did show up when Lady Yunying was getting married. How long were they at war?! And if 3 years have passed, how the heck is their daughter old? That little girl is not 3 years old.
What a mess! I enjoyed it until the last two ep. They needed more. Where was the reconciliation? Why did the emperor agree so fast to his request?! What HAPPENED to the jade pendant?! I mean, there was a real one and a fake one.
How dumb is the emperor and dowager? Why would you marry your war hero brother to the princess of an enemy kingdom.…
That’s where they went wrong. I think that they assumed that he will never fall in love with an enemy’s daughter but come on, how can he not fall in love with SKY?
How dumb is the emperor and dowager? Why would you marry your war hero brother to the princess of an enemy kingdom.…
I think they kind of went over why they did what they did. He was supposed to be the emperor but he made a deal with the dowager and didn’t ascend the throne. By making him marry his enemies’ daughters, they can control him.
The dowager stated that the emperor doesn’t trust him and he, himself, also stated that the emperor doesn’t trust him that’s why he’s keeping the pregnancy a secret because he knows that if the emperor finds out, he will keep SKY and baby hostage in the palace.
Princesses are supposed elegant and kind right? Why are all princesses in Chinese dramas so obsessive and mean? Smh. This one beats all of the mean ones by a mile.
She’s so obsessive to the point that she was willing to sacrifice someone who cared about her, kill an innocent old man, hurt an unborn child, and the person that the person she is obsessing over loves the most.
She’s pretty but her heart is ugly! Hopefully Prince Jin is smart enough to know that it wasn’t Steward Yi but his so call princess who did all of these.
Also, what I don’t understand is why can’t the emperor and empress dowager leave Prince Jin alone?! He didn’t ascend the throne so just let him be happy. Sheesh.
Now, I want to know if SKY is hiding the real Jade pendant since she had a fake one made.
It was ep 11 when they first slept together. She complained to Lady Yunying about it and he denied it even though we can assume that something happened.
Can our princess get a break?! Got me crying for her. Everyone wants her dead. All she wants is to be with her nanny. She can’t get a break at all.
Love Zhang Miao Yi. She reminds me of a young Ariel Lin. She is doing an amazing job in this drama. I am used to seeing her as a higher schooler, but she is doing a fine job with this. Kind of wish they left her hair down but either way, she’s beautiful.
As everyone stated, the two comical duo is back. I was surprised to see them together since Tiger and Rose. They are still as funny as ever.
Well, not going to lie, I did not see that plot twist coming. Who knew that the assassin who is trying to kill the prince is a princess and now that she’s infiltrated the prince’s mansion, I hope that Prince Jin is smart enough to see through her evilness.
Papa Shen is one evil dude. First his illegitimate daughter, then his legitimate daughter, and now his wife. This dude is so ambitious that he was willing to throw anyone under the bus for success. He is by far the worst father and husband in all of drama land.
Can’t wait to see how the drama ends. Crossing my fingers that our original prince and princess Jin will live happily ever after with their child.
Wow. Is all I can say. To think that I almost dropped this drama. It was giving me Hotel Del Luna vibes but wasn’t up to par, but the last couple eps, mainly 11,12, and 13, has been amazing. The plot twist was perfect. But it made a lot of sense. It tied up the loose ends and it gave us some unanswered questions. I am so glad that Bom was able to knock some sense into that detective to double check the records. Can’t wait for the next ep. What a cliff hanger.
I am beyond stressed! I mean, why didn’t anyone look in the dog kennel. There is a huge dog kennel and there’s no dog AT ALL! It is getting beyond ridiculous. I am beyond stressed out with this drama! How is it that the villains keep getting away with things? And why are the good guys so damn stupid? They can’t be discreet at all! KSR and her mother is always finding out JDJ and WYH’s plans. Might as well just give your plans to them at this point.
If the writers viewed the comments they’d flip the script to stop glorifying the villains. At least give viewers…
💯 correct! I feel like I’m getting dumber each day I tuned in to watch the drama. I have invested so much time and I’m really debating if I should just drop the drama but I also want to also stick it out and watch it to the end to see what other dumb ideas the writer has for this drama.
Goodness gracious! I am so over this drama. The plot is getting so stupid! This could have been a 20 ep drama! No need for over 100 eps with ridiculous plots. I am on the verge of dropping this drama.
This is one of the most frustrating drama I’ve ever watched. I loved watching 100+ Korean family dramas back in the days, but this one is just infuriating. I mean, how the heck can Kang Se Ran walk out free EVERY SINGLE TIME?! How is that all of the evidence is considered “circumstantial”?! Like what?! Makes no sense. There’s videos, recordings, she even admitted it verbally in the presence of people and yet, it’s not enough?! I’m sorry, what’s considered enough?! Her getting caught red handed?!
Goodness, at this point, I want to drop the drama, but I’ve already committed my time and I want to see Kang Se Ran and the chairman’s downfall. Please, oh, please tell me that it was the chairman who caused the death of Se Ran’s father so that he can buy the factory and please tell me that Noel FINALLY meets her daughter who was next to her all this time. I am getting bored of the whole “missing” each other all the time.
