Aww! So cute. The emperor is trying cook his first meal.

Seems to be the trend these days ... this isekai thing.

Overall, I quite like it despite Alan Yu is rather stiff. The story and Yukee Chen's acting are pretty good.

So glad you did it. What's your next drama?

Hahaha! I love that look too! A man of his stature feeling insecure and jealous is really fun to watch.

Must read. Wonderful article on the Jiang Yanli character. BTW, we're so envious of you - only up to Episode 30. Still so many more to go. Relish every episode :D

Despite he role, Bai Yi is super intelligent.

Yes, I love the scenic shots. Have you watched the anime? The scenic fine arts in the anime are almost like real - absolutely beautiful. I screenshot so many of them so that I can view them offline. Those are my most precious images.

And yes, I love Wei Wuxian's voice actor, him and Xiao Zhan really bring the character alive - the three infuse into one. Amazing!

Love your analysis and love your writings. What a treasure trove. One suggestion: would be nice if you could create a new topic under the "Discussion" section (like Character Analysis etc) and post this wonderful article there, not forgetting to include the previous article too. This way, all this amazing information would not be buried and lost under the myriad of posts in the forum. :)

Which episode are you up to now?

Do you also put the OSTs together while watching the drama? If you can read Chinese, read the song lyrics. They are just so beautiful together with the visual and the story. It's really amazing how the CQL team has managed to capture all our senses in just one drama.

Wonderful character analysis. Beautifully written. Bravo!

Watched the first episode. Love it straight away. Good acting. Humorous but not the cheap humors.

Rating be damned - Agree. Don't trust the rating here for this drama. It should have rated higher.

I've watched 24 episodes, so far so good. The story is interesting, acting is good. Yu Meng Long's acting is a bit stiff, but apart from that, everyone else's acting is pretty good.

Just started this series, and am already loving it. Love the 2 main leads, Sun Li and Luo Jin, they are real veterans, solid acting. The story depicts real life in Shanghai. Worth watching.

There's no boy/girl type of romance, there aren't any boy/boy kissing scenes too. Your first impression may be just simply a soulmate type of relationship. Worth watching because there's a lot of life lessons. It is very beautiful. cute, happy and painful, helping you go through all your emotions. The OSTs are perfect. Watch a couple of episodes on the Special Edition. If you like it, you should watch the original version instead.

Watching it raw here (no English subs):

They have released 10 episodes so far. Very good. The emperor is hot, not an a**h*** like most.

It's really refreshing to watch a totally different emperor/maidservant dynamic. There're no "the high-ups and the low-downs"; emperor and maidservant are equal. Nice!

I'm 6 episodes in, enjoying it. This is really very good!
