FL says she can never understand ML's point of view(no one has told us what that view is btw and ML clearly respects…
she had been in love with him for multiple episodes before the reveal that he's the marquis. They were both mutually in love and even confessed to each other, had a kiss scene and everything how is that friendzoning 😭😭 her entire attitude just changed when she found out husband = marquis in like ep 28.
I was exaggerating about the "sucking up" but it's def not making sense to me how she's agreeable and comfortable with every other high-ranking high-profile person in the show except ML like her excuses for leaving him bc os status and all made zero sense
FL says she can never understand ML's point of view(no one has told us what that view is btw and ML clearly respects her, loves her, and has the same goals as her), believes he is a different person than her husband Yan Zheng but will also make out w him, does not give him a CHANCE to explain or work anything out, does not tell him her plans or anything, says she has things to do and rides off into the unknown because she's got plot armor thicker than a fortress wall???? And he's sending people to protect her like MAYBE JUST PLAN TOGETHER IS THAT NOT AN OPTION
AND THEN SHE HAPPILY SITS WITH THE OTHER GENERAL AND LISTENS TO HIS STORIES AND LETS HIM GIFT HER ARMOR ARE THEY FOR REAL IS THIS REAL Miss I'm-Just-A-Butcher has no problem sitting on the same seat as General He Jingyuan... aren't ML and him pretty much on the same level??? she has ZERO ISSUES becoming the god-daughter of the Grand Tutor SHE'S KISSING UP TO EVERYONE EXCEPT ML FOR WHAT REASON EXACTLY???😭😭😭😭 they just be making issues out of AIR atp i can't take this anymoreeeee she's having full on heart-to-heart moonlight strolls w the Li guy after talking such great things about helping her people come back to their village or whatever she WILL SIT AROUND spilling her entire SOUL to everyone but ML and I cannot fathom WHY
The drama makes zero sense midway, just basically changing a character to add drama and drag the series as much…
And the effing second lead couple dynamic just boggles my mind. Did they change writers midway? When did it turn from him rejecting her bc he didn't feel like his status was good enough for her to him groveling on his knees for her while she put on an attitude? 😭😭😭 This cannot make sense to anyone. Sure, say he saw her putting her life on the line for her country but why would that make him turn childish and pursue her? What happened to him feeling like his status wasn't enough for her? The lazy writing is astonishing, given that every other team(costume, design, cinematography, OST, direction, acting) has done a phenomenal job on the drama.

1. FL's character was so fun and refreshing, strong and cool but also gentle, sensitive and kind. A central theme to her was the fact that she never saw status but treated everyone like humans. So Eps 27-28 really don't make sense with the way she's taking ML's identity reveal. She never cared about status so what's with the sudden aversion to him being a marquis? If you can beat up a prince or enemy general or scholar for justice why don't you think you can continue loving an army general? She had no issues befriending the hotel manager and becoming sisters, too. This is just lazy lazy writing. 2. She says things that make her sound ideal but her actions are quite the opposite. If you mute her in ep 27-28 she clearly is uncomfortable or unhappy with the fact that the familiar unemployed seemingly carefree house-husband she knew is actually an army general. 3. They made such a big deal of her seeing that ML accepts her just the way she is as a butcher but now she's just being insufferable with the monologue about how she will never understand his thoughts as a general or whatever. IT'S THE SAME MAN, YOU MORON! She genuinely is smarter than this. 4. This would make so much more sense if the Marquis was someone she despised or hated. It really pisses me off how they're making conflict out of NOTHING. It kinda makes her look like she just can't take the fact that he's powerful and has a job and a life outside her. She doesn't even give him a chance to show her how they would move forward as a couple and just leaves without telling him like an angry toddler pretending to be noble and righteous. It's ridiculous.
The drama makes zero sense midway, just basically changing a character to add drama and drag the series as much as possible. Kinda makes me sad to see a drama that was doing so well in the beginning fall back onto dumb tropes(that don't even fit the storyline) just to keep going. There is so much new territory that could have been explored with the unique relationship the characters have to each other but the writers are just choosing to go down too-familiar paths.
lmao I can't w FL "marquis wu'an can do no wrong marquis wu an is awesome i love marquis wu an for everything…
bro genuinely almost died multiple times saving her or her sis and she's asking him it was fun deceiving her LIKE GIRL LETS BE REAL HERE 😭😭 this would make way more sense if the marquis was her sworn enemy or the reason her parents died or sm this is just comical AND BRO IS NOT HELPING EITHER who says "find a scholar to marry and have babies with if i die but you will always be mine as long as I live" when ur girl is crashing out over u lying to her these two are insane
Am I the only one who thinks this drama is overrated? I still enjoyed it though—the OST and cinematography were…
i agree it's very entertaining and stunning to look at but the plot and writing isn't all that great characters don't follow logical growth patterns, some action scene choices are cringe and a lot of the characters come off as one-dimensional
lmao I can't w FL "marquis wu'an can do no wrong marquis wu an is awesome i love marquis wu an for everything he has done for this country i will defend his honor no matter what. also my husband is effing awesome i will provide for him die for him live for him WAIT MY HUSBAND IS ACTUALLY THE MARQUIS???? frICK YOU marQuiS fRicK yOu huSbanD hOw cOuLd u LiE tO mEEEE how DARE my husband be powerful and have a job ik he is a phenomenal scholar and fighter and somehow always has money when it really matters and looks awesome and would die to protect me and my sis and I'm head over heels in love w him but the HORROR that he aCTUALLY iS mArQuIs the BETRAYAL hOw COULD HE LIEEEE TO MEEEEEE" like COME ON i agree he shouldn't have hidden it for so long but who would have that much rage and anger when you find out the guy you love is also a person you deeply respect like...??? make it make sense 😭😭😭
im up to ep 14 and honestly it's not all thaaaat... sweet and low on angst, sometimes dragging on a bit with the identity mysteries, just meandering around and buying time. It's mostly just a tease, really-- teasing at the reveal of who her father is, teasing at relationship progression but it doesn't really happen, teasing at new characters but no one actually does anything decisive, and then falling back to repetitive plot lines(bandits) again and again to keep the thing going. If it wasn't for the absolutely stunning scenery, setting, and visuals I would have quit.
The second lead cheating arc was so dumb it's like the writers couldn't decide to go all the way or not and that led to it all looking so over-the-top and unnecessary. They had multiple options but they somehow chose the most underwhelming one. 1. He cheats outright. She catches him. Done. 2. The cheating plot isn't even brought in - i feel this was the most meaningful option... we've seen enough cheating plotlines and this couple felt a little fresh in the beginning because cheating wasn't even on the plate-- both are struggling to provide for each other and build their careers and ML's constant absence wears FL down. They could have gone to the end with this one-- either ML somehow finds a way to be more present or FL eventually breaks down over it and they work it out or leave. 3. He half-cheats?? what even was this option? I understand that it's like the final straw that breaks FL but they played it out very badly. FL catches him with the woman and immediately goes into a depression arc without even speaking to him about it. When she finally confronts him, ML is so exhausted he barely fights the allegations and in the hospital scene it felt like she just gave up too easily. And then skip forward to the divorce. After all the time they spent building that couple's relationship and making them both likable this felt so weird.
This show just keep GROWING on me its winding its tendrils all over my heart its just so BEAUTIFUL and oh my goodness Dr. Ku Do Won is all i aspire to be in life and all i want he's going STRAIGHT into my male leads i would jump no questions asked list 😭😭🩷🩷🩷
