What did Li Xun say to his son about Zhu Yun before he died? And what makes you think that he loves her more than…
Yeah, I wanna scrub this death scene from my mind. Anyhow, drama version is different, I'll remember them as the drama version where they are much healthier and will live longer 😌
Sometimes i feel like its a duty to be a L&P promoter lmao
Me too, I worked harder for this drama than in my actual job these past weeks 😂 I also fight the urge to reply to every comments who keeps criticizing LX haha
Just finished it, my honest opinion : Episode 1-3 were excellent, it felt unique and special. So much potential in the story. 4-10 were still interesting to keep you watching around 11+ it kinda lost it's spark for me. The mystery and struggle surrounding CP's death was just not engaging. It felt like the typical saeguk drama politics intrigue. I would have preferred if they expanded on the Princes' stories instead. Gyeosong, Bogeum, Simso and SungNam's stories were touching, but they barely scratched the surface. So much potential, yet instead we focused around the dead princes. Still a solid 7, as it's one of the few dramas I didn't drop this year.
Its impossible to move on https://twitter.com/Rainie_mikevid/status/1601970290522984448?t=CMZxC4tymZNY6nIIZljlNA&s=19
wow, that was so beautiful. The more you rewatch scenes, the more you appreciate this drama. All these parallels, the attention to details is so insane. Brilliant script and directing indeed.
ahhh, I finally saw the translated version of FeiYu's post. What can I say? I definitely felt his sincerity, appreciation and humbleness in that post. It's so nice seeing how hardworking and serious he is with his work specially given his priviledged background.
I hope he shines more in the future and stays grounded.
Okay, I'm on episode 10 and I'm still wondering, does the King have no daughters? And why is ChungHa allowed to roam freely like that (alone without even a chaperone)?
If they were to pair together again, I might have a hard time not seeing them as LiXun or Zhuyun if it's modern, so I kinda wish they'd do a xianxia or historical instead.
Don't get me wrong. I am at episode 15 and I think LX's character is overrated. He doesn't talk much and behaves…
to be honest, I shared the same opinion about LiXun in the first 7 or so episodes. I thought he was just the typical cliche ML, you know the handsome guy who gets away with being arrogant, the 'lone wolf' vibe etc etc. So I totally get where you're coming from. I used to comment here before saying LiXun would have problems when he gets older and have to work with others in real adult setting. You have to really see this drama in totality to appreciate and really understand the characters.
I think the one thing that put off a few viewers is that they really started LiXun's character as if it was a cliche. The blonde, handsome, arrogant, genius boy blah blah, we saw girls squealing and pining for him and him being snarky all the time. Had we not started with the first episode (present time), I probably would have dropped this too. The thing is, this story is mostly about LiXun but from ZhuYun's pov. ZhuYun holds some prejudice against him in the beginning and thus most of the narrative is really how ZY sees him. And then, as ZY falls in love we also gradually see the different side of LX.
When I look back now, I don't think LiXun is cliche at all, neither does he fit the typical cold ML character. He does also know how to get along with others, we just really didn't see a lot of from his pov. He's not a very closed off person in my opinion, he confides things to RenDi and FuYiZhou. Also the fact that HouNing knows about his whole life story, and how he discussed a lot with Director Dong, he jokes around with his colleagues. And random example, how LuSiSi was with him together at the bus stop after he snapped at her lol. I think it is evidence that he knows how to interact with others too.
Because all we see is ZY pov then, when he bosses their classmates around, ask them to pick up things for him etc etc. These things were seen with prejudice filter. I don't think the classmates would have stayed in the group if he was truly as unbearable as how he was projected in the beginning.
Back at 8.7 haha knew it might happen since there aren’t as many people actively eating now so every rating…
I think it's fine this way. This drama's growth and popularity was truly organic. I'm glad it was not hyped in the beginning, I'm glad that they were also not big stars with crazy fandoms. It made it more endearing for me, and I think it's also due to this fact I feel extra proud and protective of FeiYu and JingYi.
I still haven't seen any subbed version of the special episode. To those who have seen it, I have a question : Is that proposal supposed to be at dawn? Because they were wearing the same clothes when they registered their marriage. A bit weird if they registered first then LiXun proposed at night.😂
I saw FeiYu and JingYi both posted their farewell message to the drama. I hope someone can translate 🥲🙏 It's definitely bittersweet seeing the cast officially bid farewell to the drama.
