I've always wondered why they take the drinking seriously and anyone who refuses to drink is seen as disrespectful…
Just like I said, their mindset still lives in a feudal state. Even with all the technology at their fingertips, they don’t dare to abolish this drinking culture.
Someone doesn’t want to dismantle the alcohol industry. Someone doesn’t want people to live longer. Someone wants the insurance industry to keep running or even grow bigger. Someone wants citizens to make frequent visits to hospitals.
Perhaps this is how the world truly works, controlled by the elite.
All of these problems stem from drinking alcohol during attempts to secure business deals with other companies or clients. I’ve mentioned this before in my Love Ambition post, especially in the scene where Zhao Lusi gets drunk after a client meeting. The culture of drinking alcohol as a sign of seriousness in forming business partnerships is one of the most foolish and feudal East Asian traditions still being upheld.
Why does alcohol have to be involved? A true professional prepares a business proposal and discusses mutual benefits. There’s no need for this kind of trash activity. It damages individuals and society under the guise of “culture.”
They speak nonsense and cover their actions with flowery words, calling it tradition. But, this kind of practice should be wiped off the face of the earth.
Ah, I got misled by the tags. I can still watch donghua or anime with xianxia or similar genres. But unfortunately, I’m not quite ready to dive into live-action xianxia dramas seriously yet. Thanks for letting me know!
I just finished it today Sat, 25-10-25. After waiting for the express package on release day, I got caught up with work and forgot about my ongoing watchlist. Plus, the flood of new drama episodes releasing back-to-back really delayed my viewing.
A lesson to take from this drama: Try not to have more than two children if you’re not willing to dedicate extra time and energy to truly care for each of them, and to work hard in raising them to be confident individuals who are trained to rise again after experiencing failure. This is something that truly happens in real life, dear viewers.
I know, it has a really good trailer. It’s been on my PTW list since last week. I just finished The Journey of Legend today. There have been so many great dramas from last month to this month. They’ve been racing each other with new episode releases thanks for suggesting
I started watching this after seeing a clip of Joseph Zheng as a martial arts master challenging people from various sects in a large hall. I remembered seeing Zhu Xudan in that scene.
After watching Heroes up to episode 9, I was confused Liu Yuning and Yang Chaoyue were there, but Zhu Xudan wasn’t. Turns out, they’re two different dramas. But it’s fine I’m already invested in understanding the story more deeply.
YouTube clips never show the title anyway. The good part is, now I’ve got two wuxia dramas starring Joseph Zheng on my watchlist!
wait.....did we finish z drama without seeing that senior alchemists face😭🤣🤣
He played the third prince in New Life Begins and Song Yi's brother in My Heroic Husband. I knew it was him the moment he appeared even when we couldn’t see his face 🤣🤣🤣 They really did him dirty!
it makes him look like a child... I really couldn't take him seriously
In the drama Perfect Match, he didn’t look like that at all. But in this drama, how could he end up looking like that if not because of the supporting roles constantly surrounding him? I always feel that it’s the supporting characters around him who physically stand out the most.
The actor who plays Xia Jingshi look small espescially in the last part of the story. The proportion between his head and his shoulders is quite noticeable, his head looks large. The costume team should have given him an outfit that balances out the disproportion of his large head.
Just like the character Fan Xian in Joy of Life 2, who became very thin, but his shoulder pads on both sides helped balance the head and hair accessories so his head didn’t look too big.
It started with 8.3 suddenly went 7.8 now 7.9 dont know what happened.. deliberate i guess
The analogy is like eating a bowl of hot noodle soup and suddenly taking a bite of birthday cake, it would definitely feel strange. But if we eat both with a time gap in between, it might not feel so odd.

Maybe people prefer Feng Suige and Fu Yixiao more. A slow-paced drama going head-to-head with a popular and intense costume drama. of course, people choose the popular one. Then they start comparing, asking why this “yummy yummy” plot is like this or like that. Maybe that’s one of the reasons why its rating dropped.

i think i've watched the same storyline in the vertical dramas

I'm in a good mood to explore some wuxia stories
just not ones with a plot that focuses on palace politics
Just like the character Fan Xian in Joy of Life 2, who became very thin, but his shoulder pads on both sides helped balance the head and hair accessories so his head didn’t look too big.
