but the drama didn't really reveal what their thinking is, it's subject to each viewer to interpret it for yourself their intentions

Ep 26 battle, especially the FL fight scenes look like a drama enactment of a video game animation

ML played Jian Yang, Tong Yao's first love in FIYS

I could be wrong, but I think GOTD was all about the ML. I recall seeing comments when it was airing that Tian Xi Wei didn't have much screentime. In Moonlit Reunion, it's female-centric story, but in Pursuit of Jade, it's all about the FL. Moonlit Reunion gave a lot of screen time also to supporting cast, and the ML had little screentime.

I think the director’s style has both pros and cons. He’s undeniably artistic and knows how to give viewers what they want, but at the same time, he seems to control so much of the actors’ craft.

She says her ridiculous lines with such conviction, you don't know if you should laugh or not

The story follows one main character, and that character is the female lead.

I'm a bit torn, because the story hasn’t really convinced me why he needs to keep it secret for so long. Without a strong reason, it ends up weakening his character. Since the story already doesn’t go very deep into the ML, it becomes even easier for his characterization to feel thin.

Love is Blind

Another title can be The Legend of Chang Yu

They need to update the poster. There's a new one with gold characters.

excellent points!

Yeah, I think that’s probably it. The men with him would be shouting and announcing his entry. At the end of the episode, only the pig squad was left, which was intentional. The director has a way of creating moments. There are pros and cons to his style for the actors.

It’s not meant to be realistic or serious—it’s written like the stuff of legends.

How did the men know it was the Marquis arriving on horse when they didn’t even know what he looked like back at camp? Was it his horse, something he carried, his men, or did someone announce him?

She says she’s going to cut off a few ears on the battlefield to prove she actually fought. To her, it’s no different from chopping off pig ears—which, honestly, is a pretty common dish.
And in an earlier episode, she threatened to cut off the bad guy's penis!

The FL’s experience in butchering animals, her strength equal to four men, and her top‑tier sword skills make her a believable and well‑suited candidate for battle duty.

the ML didn't need to stay at the village. He is strong and capable and can even communicate with his people using his falcon. It's probably not the first time that he's been badly injured with all the battles he's been in. It's just that the fell in love at end of ep.1 and didn't want to leave yet. But then he also suspected there was something about her that is linked to the politics because assassins came for her and her sister at the village, not him.

FL treats ML like he's a kid, giving him candy.

Evernight was Arthur Chen’s entry into Chinese television dramas. Although his father, renowned director Chen Kaige, one of China’s most influential film directors, was not officially credited as a director or producer on the project, it was widely understood that the project had his backing and support, often viewed as part of his guidance for his son's acting career.

I'm sure Arthur Chen, given his family background, will eventually move on to bigger and better things. He's still young though.
