I watched it several times and I would have watched more if certain parts didn't break my heart. But after watching POJ, I started thinking of Bai Feng Xi!
The first part is the foundation of the lead's relationship and introduces the other characters before it goes…
Even though I didn't get certain scenes I hoped would be included, this is still a drama I would rewatch and I am still watching the edits I see pop up on IG. If you look at it from the plot and theme angle and you consider the connection between the characters combined with acting and production, it is more than worth the while. I have my disappointments but I still loved it. The protagonist ML and the antagonist sml both went through childhood traumas and losses. Yet the ML works for the good of all, and the SML let hate take over until one woman opened up a part of his heart that contradicted all that he had become. His ending is not a surprise considering redemption was too far reached and yet I felt some pity. There are scenes I found interesting and not just sizzling hot. For example, the bathtub scene could be symbolic of Yin and Yang and it is the FL who wears black while the ML wears white. I don't know if this was the director's intention, but it is what came to mind when I watched all the twirling of black and white. I could go on. While I watched POJ and enjoyed the humor for entertainment, there is a deeper level that I also enjoy and many other aspects. At the same time, I feel disappointment the ending was as I would have wanted it to be but I also try to appreciate the director's pov.
Yeah.. We keep hearing about his greatness but we don’t really get to witness it.. That was honestly disappointing..…
I enjoyed watching TXW so much and also the little actress who played Chang Ning. But the separation was too long because I started feeling disconnected with the romance. However, like many, I loved their scenes together when they did meet. I replayed the marquis galloping in at the end of ep 26 to swoop up Chang Yu many times. The OST was beautiful also.
They shouldn’t have overlapped the final battle like that.. It would have worked much better if it was Wei Yan…
The drama ending was not satisfying to me, but I think the director wanted to be creative. They all wanted to be creative. The director messed up the ending for Bright Eyes in the Dark, which I was enjoying so much. Netizens were so mad at the director that he sent Johnny Huang and Zhang Jing Yi to do a livestream saying it was an open ending etc. In POJ, I would have preferred seeing a happy ending with the twins and also the grand wedding!

I am not one to complain about screentime, but in this case, I felt the marquis needed his time to shine in battle, but we didn't get it. There is a lot to love in POJ though. Even my brother who never watches these dramas got pulled in watching with his wife😂
I agree. It is ridiculous to see what is happening. It makes me feel ZLH is being targeted. But why? I did a search…
I hope they will ignore the fandom and collaborate anyway. He needs to step up and say something. Zhang Jing Yi has this natural presence that makes the chemistry so real. I am looking forward to her next drama.
I cannot tell you how much I loved Lusi in WRTW. I have waited for her to take another role like this but I don't know if this is a good time for her, as these roles are physically challenging. Still, I am selfishly hoping to see her in another martial arts role again. Bai Feng Xi💗💗💗
