I agree, thought the same in that scene. I actually have a different theory why her performance in this drama might be judged as flat and unconvincing - the damn awful face makeup they did on her. I know she has pale skin, but the foundation they put on her makes her basically translucent. Its like she's completely washed out. Makeup on other female characters is not much better either, but on her is really goddamn pale. I need to adjust my monitor settings just to see her properly🤷 Still I liked her, havent seen anything else with her yet

Exactly, im not expecting anything too intimate but they could have work on this better

😂 exactly my thoughts

Im curious of the ending as well, not many episodes left and i feel like not much is resolved

Yeah it might look that way, but i deeply mistrust that guy and somehow that reasoning doesnt resonate with me. But i guess she convinced herself to believe that 🤷

Yeah i get you, but in my opinion at the beginning she still had her own will so to speak, even despite what you mentioned. But she surrendered herself completely over time. Which i suppose is the plot. While it might have been her fate all along, she still had a choice how to face it. And i guess she do what she did in the end. I feel like it cost her her spirit and i miss that

yeah, that might play a big part. probably discovering new things about her aunt and her environment, and also people around mentioning her often made CZ feel like an extension of the aunt. i wish she stayed more true to herself, i liked her from the beginning cause she clearly had her own personality

you might be right, how could i forget about the aunt 😂

i guess you're right, oh man. i hope not though

yes, and she didnt even really want to go there in the first place, she wanted to stay at home and do business instead of going to be a disciple. i just lack her inner perspective on this tbh

he appears suspicious as hell but would they make the main villain a character that appeared in the drama in ep 30 for a few scenes and no one basically heard much of him before? if so, kinda disappointing

okay, i have to ask, maybe its a stupid question and i dont understand but - why CZ stayed in the sect (ep 29)? i get like getting punished, she feels like she let down people close to her and all, but locked away for a year, what the hell for? cant she just leave the sect and not be a disciple? like why even allow the sect leaders to decide her later fate? does she have to be a member?

also i have to say, as she just annoyed me this very moment, i despise lingbo. she is continuously a vapid shallow and hateful character. few times i thought they are gonna give her some redemption arc but every time i was proven wrong 😂 she is consistent tho

i agree with a lot of what you said. i feel like the plot is stuck in place. technically there are things happening but i feel like it always circles back to the same point. i also dont get why CZ just keep going back to the sect. girl, just go home! why go there? she was originally supposed to be there for a year, at this point what is she even learning there?

i have to say, for how much tension they created between the leads, the kissing scenes were disappointing

nah, he's clearly projecting onto her, i also think that

i think it is - while not a masterpiece, it certainly has moment when it grips attention. for me it's worth to watch because of the interesting relationship the leads have - not the healthiest, kinda dark but also not completely unbalanced. so much tension there. the plot is kinda convoluted and you need to pay attention to know whats going on (i admit i kinda got lost a few times lol). the editing is messed up a bit in few first episodes (i personally didnt mind it too much, was just a bit confused here and there). for me it stood out amongst other recent releases cause despite its problems it did hold my attention which i struggle with. that being said, for me it did become a bit frustrating to watch after like ep 20-21. give it a try and keep an open mind, you might like it :)

Yeah, in a way it is Romeo/Juliet story but I severly dislike the actual source material (I mean the Romeo and Juliet book), while I do like the relationship in the drama - it's not screaming a childish romance but a complex relationship. Very interesting individuals trying to build something together against odds, and even against each other. I think it's actually the strongest part of the drama for me.

i agree, he's so invested in her. at this point, if he is not after all a complete villain in this, then he must be projecting his own feelings regarding her aunt onto her which is creepy

everytime the Qi guy appears on screen my eyes automatically roll, at this point i cant even control it
