The people in the below comments that don't get song Yi acting, hopefully after ep 5 you canYuru isn't even a…
I totally agree with you about Song Yi. I feel that sheβs well casted for the role. Three episodes in, I was already thinking to myself who else could have done this role because it needs a certain level of maturity yet strong feminine aura. I didnβt read the novel but the way Song Yi projects YuRu is very ideal and suiting for this drama.
It's a status symbol. Think of the phrase "tell me you're rich without telling me you're rich."π
I suppose if you compare Gu's family to the imperial palace and its relation to it, it'll be easier to accept the number of servants. Also, for the emperor to be after their wealth to fund the state, we're taking about billion dollars Amazon business type wealth in magnitude, not the town's millionaire. It would look ungodly to have only a handful of servants.
That aside, it looks great though when all the servants line up and listen to LYR's command instead of GJS, especially the head butler. π
I wouldn't pay attention to useless melons like that. The sad truth is Song Yi is not even an A-lister, which…
It's a first for me to see melon = gossip as well. I guess it's derived from the sound alike word "gua" in "bat gua (gossip)." The word melon is also "gua" although in a different tone.
There's a schedule pic posted under the photos section. If I remember correctly, I believe it's 2 eps per day this entire week, and then changes to ThFSSun thereafter the remaining airing time. Although, in the past, I've seen deviation from posted schedules for some other series, so it's subject to change.
Ep , I was moved to tears the first 10 minutes, and clapped like a silly lady after GJS recited the verse. I feel so alive watching Destined. Another fantastic episode!
Just finished all 6 episodes and I want more NOW! It's such a feel good and satisfying drama to watch - other than the evil stepmother and step-sisters, and LYR's incompetent father. Everybody else is so down to earth including all the maids and servants, and Gu family's employees.
"Destined" is quickly becoming one of my favorite dramas and we're only 6 episodes in!
LYR is truly an intelligent and wise person. I like how she encourages GJS with his study and praises him in order to overcome his inferior complex in regard to Ye Shi An. She is able to recognize his high aptitude should he put an effort to the task. She knows he's a diamond in the rough.
What an opulent wedding set. Additionally, instead of the traditional all red wedding costume, the bride is wearing a rich green top with red bottom. The gold filigree fan is beautiful. Such a luxurious look!
Love this costume designer.
The drama seems to have a strong production team put together.

The head butler is awesome with his performance, too!
