While watching this drama I am reminded of Poppy War by R.F Kuang. Both didn't sugarcoat war, and have morally gray characters. Maybe that's why I love this series too. Though, of course Poppy War is so much more darker than Pursuit of Jade. Ps: Gonsun Yin reminds me of Kitay🥺
Tian Xi Wei appreciation here!!!! She's so cool, along with her character, without sacrificing her femininity. She's not that feminine, though; however, they also didn't make her character cosplay a man. Also, amazing that they actually made an entire scene of her just fighting a very significant general without even a Man saving her. This drama just makes me love her character more and more. ps: It's not that a woman loses her coolness if a man saves her. It's just that it just keeps happening in media that they do not even let a woman shine as herself.
I realized the reason I love this drama is that there's no damsel in distress, or main lead that has a savior complex. They can take care of themselves, but can still take care of each other. I have never watched this kind of dynamic since Blossom in adversity.
okay cam someone spoil on thos goons that now has Changyu's back. Will they be a part of Changyu's military? I know that she's going to be a general based on the spoilers.
yes, she changed near the end before the writers did a 180. she even changed ye feng to be good. the writers were…
reallll. I also didn't like Lin Yi, but she deserve a happy ever after even. The girl was just trying to survive after that traumatic experience in the past. She's not perfect, but she's human...
Currently in ep 28, and I realized they are not using the pin anymore. and it's already 1977. Did the series showed the end of the Cultural Revolution? I'm not chinese so i'm only getting the background info from the internet.
I am totally enjoying this series. The characters are complex, i could write essays about each one of them. The themes! The Acting! The Face! Definitely the drama of the year.
