Consort Jing got to be my favorite female character in this show. So gentle and strong and clever, you can always…
I also thought she was in love with Lin Shu's father, Namu tree, her savior being mei shinan..
Also, speaking of side characters, Zhen Ping was SO freaking awesome in that alley " og fail I forgot a name" omg he was So visually iconic.
Its an intelligent drama. I am extremely reluctant to watch chinese historical drams because of all the flying,…
The flying used to kill me as well. But now, I am ok with it. i started out originally watching historical Korean dramas, after I got all those watched I went on to modern day. I finally got those done to the point that i was waiting for a new episode and went over to Chinese. I started Chinese dramas the same way, in the historical section, so I was prepared for flying and such. I used to totally bust out laughing when they did that, and now I know it just is part of the entire martial arts mythology. Now I look for it as a marker for those fighters who are masters and really tough.
I was not as impressed by this drama as many viewers on here. The aspects that I enjoyed of it were the settings,…
My biggest issue with this drama is that it has raised the bar SO high. I loved all the wuxia dramas I had seen before in an oh so patronizing way. Now, I cannot complete one of the older ones. GAh this drama has shown me what is possible and what dramas should look like. I have rewatched ONE drama before this one back to back. ( Life is beautiful in my BL period LOL) and now. well I watch this one a lot. It will be summer before the next batch I am waiting for are coming along. I hope I make it.
Great plot and all...but what's with all the flying? Like...they literally stop in mid air and then fly all over…
for some flying in Korean dramas keep looking you will find it. It does seem to be more prevalent in chinese dramas, I love it now. It used to freak me out, but now I realize it also directly translates to " oh look, he is a bad ass master of martial arts"
I have withdrawal syndrome even after 2 weeks. I can just say this is the best of the "bestest" in 2015…
well look for the alternate ending, it is AWAAESOME!!!
I am still trapped in there on some insane endless loop. i never watch anything more than once. Ok i do, but like years and years between. I have seen this series back to back WAY too many times to admit. GAH i don't want to leave. I do not think I will find a drama as good as this one more than once every three to five years.
This drama is full to the brim with love. Just it has to do with bromances. there are some love stories but the epicness of love is always on the male to male relationships. Very serious deadly stuff, not your blove( a drop or two in there but not much) . However, it is also the most moving bromance feels i have ever ever ever seen in ANY drama ever.
I'm confused about a small thing, I hope someone can reply, but if Princess Nihuang related to the Emperor and…
Childhood friends!!! , Jings' cousin Lin Shu was supposed to marry her, Jing and Lin Shu were seriously tight best friends and cousin buddies. She was always hanging out with those two. Hence she feels and can act very sisterly around him and trust him totally.
I am usually a Kdrama fan, and i have to say this drama is head and shoulders above any korean ones airing right now. well it might be neck and neck with the flying dragons :)
sweet story and suspense without a ton of blood usually ( i hate those kind)
ok this drama is really nice at episode 10. I am so looking forward to the ending. i also hope it is not depressing. Since Wu Xin is an immortal tho, i would say it has a more than average chance to be really horrifically depressing :( i don't care tho. I am going to stay with it because its too good to stop watching.
it is a surprisingly good show. it is a monster hunting show of eye candy so don't look for like insanely (gifted) written acted and directed, but it is pretty freaking great for what it is.
wu xin heartless. omg its fine
Not gonna write a big rant but please do not lump all east asian countries together on this issue. There are many…
I feel you there. I wanted to kind of rant too, but mostly because as a foreigner i have NO idea what life is like. I would be surprised if there were NOT differences between different countries.
I also am a History major. The portrayal is how women were treated for ages and ages almost everywhere. As humans tho, we are starting to notice and change this. at first it is "omg they show that on TV" and make the country portraying that feel peer pressure. women's roles change and they add more peer pressure and thus change is effected. It takes a long time. I am glad they are changing.
I just hope Asian women remain women ( strong intelligent hardy and capable) instead of doing what I feel like us American women did, tried to BE men instead of just have equality. It really set the entire movement back by ages and ages.
