This drama is honestly too complex for me to summarise properly, given that I’ve basically forgotten the plot 😅 with all that political intrigue, strategy, betrayal etc. The gist is that the ml is the adopted son of a powerful family. He’s sent to the border, comes back with military merit, and then along with his sworn brothers starts scheming behind the scenes to take down the corruption within the kingdom. And if I’m not mistaken, there’s also a larger war brewing beyond the borders. So yes, a lot to keep up with 🙄

Ah, now I get it! The misunderstanding. I wasn't talking about Liu Yuning, but Ning, the female character in EB. ps. 🤭🤭 The hair/wigs are always hit or miss 😅

I have a personal allergy to Ning's character in EB season 1 🥲

Instead of being gorilla glue, I wish she would use it as lipstick

yes but there is Ning there too... 💀💀💀💀😅😅😅🥲🥲🥲🥲😭😭😭😭

now I want to read the novel again!

Even if it’s not on the same level as some other dramas, it can still be considered a masterpiece within its own genre which is primarily romance (so not really comparable woth NiF). And when compared to similar dramas, it is actually very good. Would it have been better if it stayed more serious and closer to the novel? probably. But even with the changes, it’s still a very good drama, a masterpiece for some, and not for others. That’s normal.That said, if someone wants to criticise it, that’s totally fair but the way it’s said matters. Dismissing other people’s enjoyment or being sarcastic about it doesn’t open discussion, it just puts people on the defensive. And once someone feels offended, they stop listening. That’s not how meaningful debate works it just becomes noise

With many cdramas, the problem is always the same: they start well, lose their way in the middle with many unnecessary scenes, and have rushed endings

Tomorrow?????? But I still need to rewatch season 1 because I’ve forgotten literally everything… except, of course, the one thing I wish I could erase from my brain via lobotomy:Ning 💀

If I continue coming back to this comment section, I might join you soon 😅🥲

First, the drama made me buy a monthly subscription, and then the express packaging, which I still haven't used because I am 'Prisoner of Work'

Now that Prisoner of Beauty is over, does anyone know what drama WeTV will air next? Just to know if I can use the rest of my monthly subscription for something 😅

I guess most people were just skipping scenes if they missed that 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

We have Pedro Pascal taking Sean Bean's place 😅 no need to cross borders

The karma of an involuntary snitch 🥲😅

After I watch it, I'll tell you if I had the same reaction, but knowing me, probably yes 💀😅🥲

Good to know, because when I heard she killed herself AND the baby, it felt completely out of character

it did but the way it was done it genuinely felt like one of those stories where the writer already had a sad, devastating ending planned from the beginning and no matter how much plot armor the characters had throughout the series, that ending had to happen. So they just started dropping like flies.You could literally feel it: Ah yes, this one? Time to go. And this one? Also gone. Let’s just keep knocking them off.At some point, I wasn’t even crying anymore it was just "Ding! Another one down 😅". It stopped being emotional and started feeling like a grim checklist 🥲

I feel bad for the baby if she didn't give birth off-screen at some point. I still haven't watched the last episodes; I just saw spoilers 😉 few more hours and i can finally watch

It wasn't the kind of drama that needed to kill off characters. It's not a gritty, hyper-realistic story where that kind of emotional trauma fits the tone, especially considering the plot armor the characters had in so many scenes. But I confess, at some point I thought they would go out of their way to make it overly tragic, so just two of the people around the leads being dead is actually surprising, and it could have been worse 😅🤷🏼‍♀️
