Ep 26 ending when HongYe helps Huai Zhu to gather back the flower and she teared. Why? What does that scene means?…
I think it shows that he cares about an individual instead of the big goal/institution (as he did when he was 16 and other times when he was not saving her friend). She felt that he has changed to a better person. She cries tears of happiness and being touched by his caring.
Second kiss at stargazing, is another dead fish kiss, I rather they don’t kiss, as LSS just looks so awkward…
I agree. Both kisses seem so awkward. Like she's a mannequin. I have seen her kissed in another drama before marriage- it was way more authentic. I guess divorce rumor is false :-) She's married and cannot kiss. I am surprised there's no face covers between the lips :-)
I think the story is a little bit convoluted in the beginning because of all the extra characters. Too many people died. But that's the theme: humans and demons will fight until evil is eradicated. People who watch this story for all the so called "famous" idols will be disappointed because they are there as cameos to gain new fans. The true famous star of this drama is Liu Shi Shi. If you don't know her, do some research and watch some of her famous dramas (starting with Scarlet Heart 1) .
I can't wait to see more development in this story and the Sword and Beloved. These stories remind me of those old Jin Yong stories with new Xianxia twists.
is leon zhang a famous actor too? i'm kinda curious why he's the ml? i only watched his drama "in youth" and i…
I think he's not in the same caliber as LSS. However, he's a decent actor. I haven't seen any of his dramas because they are mostly action. He might be paired with her because they are similar age. It might have to do with cost and availability too. They paid a lot already for her so most likely they are not going to hire an expensive actor. I also noticed the LSS is mostly NOT paired with younger actors. This is a smart move on her part. There's no point to get paired with 20-something actors who will look too young compared to her.
Good thing is the bad guys die pretty quickly too :)
Think of this as a theme, which is the main problem addressed in this drama: humans and demons are killing each other. Until the evils are vanquished, good people will still die.
A few people asked why these "famous" supporting cast are in this drama. The reason is this drama is a high profile drama with a veteran famous star, Cecilia Liu, who although 37, can still command a main lead role in a major drama. These other "famous" stars still need her to gain new fans.
You don't see equivalent famous stars in the same drama.
Someone please enlighten me, why this drama have a lot of famous supporting cast, but the ML & FL themselves not…
FL is so famous, more than any other actors in this drama. She's 37 and still can come back and takes the main lead roles. It's NOT an accident! Also, these so-call "famous" supporting cast needs to go these high profile dramas to earn new fans. That's the reason!
I watch so many c-dramas and k-dramas, and rarely see any forehead wrinkles even if the character is 90, then…
Yes, filters helped. However, deep wrinkles can't be filtered completely. Asians (especially women) tend not to hang out in the sun, which causes huge damages to the skin. Also, the K and C actresses are more likely to take good care of their skin. My Dad was 80s+ and didn't have deep wrinkles.
This is a lot better than the Red Moon. I dropped RM after 2 eps when it came out and still can understand. The story and the chemistry between the lead are good. Liu Shi Shi still has it! Very versatile actress.
this is very lame: dying at childbirth.
I guess divorce rumor is false :-)
She's married and cannot kiss. I am surprised there's no face covers between the lips :-)
She was referred to as the one of the "Four Dan actresses" who are bankable:

Recently, Liu Shi Shi was hired by Celine to be the new Global Ambassador:
