Oh also, to answer your question, I think both have a similar setup with the "reverse harem" theme (i.e., multiple MLs), but I think that's where the similarity ends. LYF has a strong FL, but her personality is very different from the FL in SOKP. Also, LYF FL's actions are driven by her childhood traumas, while SOKP FL's actions are driven by her previous life's regrets.

I wholly recommend LYF regardless of which ML you prefer. The acting, production and storyline are all A+. It's been months after Season 1 ended, and many fans are still discussing LYF daily. Even I continue to watch my fav scenes with my personal fav ML (Xiang Liu) daily, and read other fans' commentary/analysis in forums. I even went on to read the novel since I really wanted to know how the story ended, and could not wait anymore until Season 2 (since we don't know when exactly that'll be released). Come join us in the LYF fun! Haha

Also, for those who've read the novel, I'm curious, did he ever call her Ning'Er in their previous life too?

Does anyone remember when exactly XW started calling JXN as Ning'Er? Was it from the very first episode, or later on when she had already entered palace? I find it sweet that he calls her Ning'Er...adds a level of intimacy hehehe!

Omggg same!! I was held captive by LYF for the past few months and could not find any other drama fascinating enough to pull me away. This drama is the first one since LYF that made me obsessed day and night waiting for the next episode!

Hi! Looking for some insight. In the scene where XY and XL send off the demon slave who was freed, and XY talked about how she wished she had been the one to save XL too:
1) Why did XL say XY was not worthy of saving him?
2) Why did XL suddenly get so angry?

Just now, I was rewatching their scenes to see if I could figure out any clues on when exactly he started having feelings. I think it started during the scene where he takes her to walk on the water and gaze at the beautiful night sky.

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you for explaining and for the excerpts! :)

Also, which scene did Xiang Liu start to have feelings for her?

For those who have read the novel, or just have better insight: how did Xiang Liu figure out that Xiaoyao is a woman?

100% yes!! Has me entranced and obsessed. I've been rewatching every episode twice, and I don't do this often.

I was thinking something similar too! And actually, what you said just reminded me of an earlier scene where GZY said that YWS is cold but with a warm heart, and that maybe he can melt her.

Haha I like that (and so very true). Thanks :)))

Ohh 🤣 I thought it had more meaning behind it since this scene made it into the official MV for an OST haha. Like maybe it was representing her choosing to reject his affection by letting go of his gift.

In Ep 11, when YWS dropped the block of Thousand Year Ice (gifted by GZY) into the bowl of water, it seemed to allude to an important meaning/emotion/decision, but I was not clear on what it was. Does anyone know what was the meaning behind this action taken by YWS?

In Ep 2, do you think the Sword Wielder was trying to tell Shangjue that he now wants to change the successor to Shangjue?

ALL HAIL THE DARK QUEEN YETAN!!!!👏👏👏

IMO, the FL character is the opposite of pure with no evil thoughts or intentions. She is intentionally antagonistic toward many people that she meets. She's further spoiled by the ML who encourages her bratty, rude behavior and lets her run wild / lawless instead of teaching her discipline and responsibility.

Yes he is dreamy!! 😍😍

The storyline, production, supporting cast and ML are all great. The only thing holding this drama back is the FL (both the character and the actress herself). I keep hoping that the actress will improve on her acting with each new drama, but I still feel like her facial expressions and reactions are not believable at all. This, combined with the FL character's pouty, childish, antagonistic behavior, and I just cannot root for her. Nevertheless, I'll continue watching bc the rest of the cast is awesome and convincing, and I'm curious to see how the villain arcs will play out.
