But the scenes were amazing to watch. The whole show was purely entertainment and it obviously delivered

That’s why they do it. They know trends. It’s done to reach broader audiences. It’s entertainment not their real life. Like some people like horror movies doesn’t mean they want to be scared by others.

I like the pig squad. The characters actually had depth. They had character development and added to her journey.

Story of Yanxi Palace is a traditional historical.

It’s not a typical historical. It’s a historical setting story, fairytale or fantasy like, and romance tension is more like modern romance.

Who would want to kill him? He’s so irrelevant.

Why pushing that illegal site. It’s not even safe.

Probably not as I totally forgot this scene until you mentioned it again and it lasted just like the comedy about finding a tutor for her, the joke was a bit long too. Must dramas have lighthearted or subtle humor or deadpan kind that is not so obvious and charmingly funny to lighten the mood but this drama, the comedy is outright the exaggerated kind that there’s no doubting it’s a comedy.

The best way to see what actors really look like away from screen is to watch their variety shows.

I’m unable to watch remaining episodes after 31 but you mean they have to bring that loser back. He’s such a boring character. Surely there was better use of screen time then to go back to him. I feel he has no meaning to the story. I could care less what happens to him

He’s a comedy act for the drama. He's the clown.

Qi Min became the king?

My least fav character was Mrs Zhou. I just didn’t t feel any emotions from her.

They do it to draw a bigger audience. It’s not so great for fan of ML who watch for them

He’s a promising actor. Only 19 when he filmed this yet his acting prowess matched more experienced actors.

Maybe the main leads are not comfortable doing it. Or the director felt it’s more interesting with second leads.

It’s what happens when a drama is about the FL character. Not just this drama. Not just cdramas. .

They purposely gave him softer look in appearance and tone including camera angles and editing. Later they removed softness as he’s no longer at village lived in husband and entered war and politics

I watch it like as if the character is marvel superhero type or those anime games not because she’s strong but because she’s stronger than the man who can fight 10,000 men. Both are comic characters. The character got her strength from slaughtering pigs and her father taught her martial skills and how to use her body to lift twice the weight of what other men can. Her fighting is strategy which explains why she can kill men that no other man could do what she can do. This is way beyond strong and is fantasy character not just her.

even that was comedy to me because of how he did it or how they showed it, I didn't' know if I should laugh or what, perhaps it was ridiculous dramatic to the point the serious tone got axed
