OMG YESS!!! And especially when SJ thought he really was his son for a hot minute before his memories returned. He thought the kid was dumb and mute. 😂

That’s one of my favorite scenes!!! I laughed so hard when I read that. And also LTY being afraid that she will end up molesting him since he’s a teenager. I cracked up when she was surprised how vigerous and unrestrained he was too! 😂😂

yes.

If they do it like in the novel SJ will figure out on his own that LTY is from a diff realm. it happened in the demon realm. The modern arc is one of my fav ones bc SJ is so unrestrained in that one but also very much himself. I hope they do that arc well!

I use vpn to change countries when I watch it. we already pay for all of that since my husband is a cyber nerd so I reap the benefits! 😁

Right?! And his voice….dark chocolate and sin.

Agreed. Dark and morally grey really suits him.

I can definitely understand your POV. But I think in this particular drama the ordinary/weak archetype is fitting. Sima Joao has dealt with the layered strong cunning personalities his whole life. He doesn’t even understand ordinary nor does he know what it feels like. He has only ever known betrayal and violence. To me, the whole point is for him to deal with someone who is truly ordinary to understand what loving and caring for someone is and in turn, knowing what it feels like to be treated with care and love, and also to have some real peace in his otherwise very violent life. 😀

If it follows the novel it shouldn’t be bad. Her personality remains the same and she grows a lot in this arc. 😁

Out of all the couples they have the best communication thus far. I love that they talk through things when they have a disagreement. And today’s episodes were such a great example of how SJ is learning about consent in a relationship.

I loved the way they handled it. That was by far one of the best “define the relationship” scenes I’ve seen. I’m so glad there were no misunderstandings between them.

I know right. I wondered how they would show all the intimate scenes we had in the novel. I’m loving this drama and I think CFY was perfectly cast as SJ. His micro expressions are just perfect. Especially when he saw how wounded LTY was. You could literally see him shaking in rage and just trying to hold it all in. Today’s episodes were chef’s kiss!

it’s available aug 26 in the US. However if you have VPN you can watch it earlier with English subtitles. I set my on Hong Kong and I watch it on Disney plus.

I’m in the US and I do it that way. I have my VPN set to Hong Kong and I watch it on Disney plus with English subtitles.

I use vpn and watch it in Disney plus

this Friday. VIKI usually airs YOUKU dramas a week later.

he was also really good in My Journey To You!

In an interview Jeff mentioned there would be romance and cute moments but didn’t specify between who. I’m gonna guess that it probably will be BL although I can’t be sure.

But it makes sense bc she is also dealing with trauma. Trauma like that doesn’t just disappear with a pretty and neat explanation. I feel for both sides bc they both did what they thought best at the time with the information they had. It’s so easy to place blame but in all honesty it’s different for everyone when dealing with something as traumatic as what she went through. it’s so easy to say she caused her own mess but being in her shoes, I’m not sure I would have made different choices either. When you love someone you will do anything for them and she loved those mortals like her own family. The loss of a child is something that is hard to go through. I watched a family member lose her son and even now, 20 years later, it is still gut wrenching. My think for HRY, she needed something or someone to blame. That’s the only way she could get through it. As terrible now as it is, hating and trying to kill BJS is what kept her going and gave her a sense of purpose. Now that reason has been taken away. I’m sure at this point she is confused and has no clue what to do next. I’m think it’s important to note that she wanted to die with him.
