Wholly loved it. Some things were inexplicable. Why bring hammers to a fight when there are modern weapons available? Only the young kid brought explosives and managed to leave fiends in the dust. I understand the ceremonial imporance of Dilraba's sword, the leader with the whip and the 'hound' regiment but beyond these artifacts why not update your armaments. The background that the ML brought to the story was important. The FL's vocation to her art when she was not on her historically inherited mission was handled brilliantly. Their slowly perculating attraction and eventual trusting devotion was the centre of the drama that anchored the fiendishly hard to believe story set in modern times.
Only 5 episodes in but it's crammed full of actions and events to last a lifetime already. Actors are great a portraying their characters. Only hope this drama doesn't start becoming static.
Ep. 26/27 First time spent at home to solidify their relationship with a little back to back, belly to belly action. Then comes a sinister message. A challenge made - a challenge accepted. A really suspenful undertaking follows as the companions set out on a long treacherous trek.
That was a doozy of an episode (8). Looking forward to more lovey dovey times. The fledgling's poison is weak so they should be able to make and antidote from it. Still, itlooks like the Left State Councillor has more bad deeds up his sleeve.
This drama is totally engrossing. I care little about the ratings. Besides, isn't it the number of people watching that should count? Disappointed that there are only eight episodes left to watch.
Done the 25 ep. and love the way they slowly reintegrate into 'normal' life. Xing Shen has already done a dirty deed. What's he on his way to doing now? Please keep all the nice humans safe and let Karma bite the fiendishly humans in the ass.
Just finished ep 17. Premier episode of smart people trying to outsmart each other. Yan Tuo is a chameleon of emotion. His boney-maroney minder keeps getting outflanked. Xing Chen is jealous of the informant. The Mad Blade takes on the rubber-wrapped fiendess as the drama heats up.
I'm a Wallace Chung admirer and have watched a lot of his dramas. This one does not sound like a new drama to me since I started watching this story years ago where he's also in love with a ballerina. Am I going crazy?
Until this episode (9) I didn't find it dragged, but now they don't seem to be getting anywhere except eating and driving in cars. They are supposed to be rescueing her mentor/father figure. She doesn't seem as strong here as previously, maybe she should have taken him up on the idea of eating and sleeping more. He keeps asking if she's alright when there is obviously a blade through her midriff.
Started watching this 'old thing' on Netflix 'cause I love historical Kdramas and this was the only one left I haven't watched. Disappointed there is so much time spent in the present. Keep wondering if as Prince he ever gets to see the younger sister's face and finds out what a scumbag his beloved 'Princess' is? I don't care who killed her, I say good riddance! Just read the main actor's history and it sounds very troubled. That's too bad as I would like to see him in other dramas.
Just started this drama strictly for Chen Xiao. Great environment, plenty of blood and guts with evil characters promising more of the same. Wonder what caused Gu Ping Yuan ending up a criminal? So I'll keep watching.
Just finished ep. 2 Looks like blood sport. Dilraba on the hunt, but surely Yan Tuo can't be such a fiend. They are bound to run into each. Take heed, don't look at your phone while driving.
Just finished ep 5. Too many switcheroos which can be confusing, but in some way it doesn't matter as it fun to see them interacting and trying to make sense out of what's happening. Dealing with the outside world is difficult, but since the main characters all know she's not really a eunuch why was everyone so shocked to see them in bed together. Oh, yeah, I guess that's a no no in those days.
Just finished this drama. It ended with the main 'lovers' standing at a cliff overlooking the nation as they give a long patriotic speech. Their two horses whinnying behind them have more CP than they do. As at the start of the drama, Yu welcomes the warrior who has been away at the border for three years with her trademark sword dance. However, by this time the widow has aged and may well be in menopause when the nuptials are finally allowed to take place. The strongest impression was the dramatic arc of The Princess and her male harem boy Han Mei who took a sidetrip to the North to play at being king but 'mommie dearest' was not impressed with his love life. The doomed couple took a flying leap off that very cliff. The other two romances while facing some hardships along the way bloomed nevertheless. Good looking drama.
