Young emotions.

I loved how they portrayed the same emotions through different characters who are all at the same stage of life. Ko Nueang and Ko Song had their little misunderstandings and relationship conflicts, while Augur and Achi shared a sweet understanding built on trust and communication. Then there's August and Tle, whose story beautifully captured the journey from secretly admiring someone to finally finding the courage to confess those feelings.Each character is going through a similar phase in life, but their choices, perspectives, and personalities make their stories feel completely unique. That's what made the series so special, it showed that even when people experience the same emotions, everyone navigates them in their own way.

the kids tried to save the episode they really did.

the father chose the right time to enter the story because the mother is just aggravating as hell to watch ，it’s no longer funny she is actively ruining every inch of his life. objectively i liked that as daichi gets more involved in his mother’s conflict that takes him out of center of the class+mates’ drama & have kobayashi finally habe a moment. i really enjoy this friend group also ，they’re really fun. a bit drained so that’s all i have to say. No actually i have one more thing to say kobayashi’s mother is also terrible but i love her inversing umi a lot. she doesn’t coddle her son she forces him to stand on his owm two feet ，& is she extreme ？yes ！but look at that freak on the poster. only one of them has good intentions.

Still in denial, yet cautiously moving

I'm still kind of in denial that Princess Lingyun is dead. 😔 But judging by the way Zuidie received her end and what Zhiyao did after, it looks a lot like the closure to that arc... At least he was the one who delivered the killing blow to her and avenged his beloved's death. 👍 But for me, it's so much more bitter than it ever will be sweet. I rooted for them so hard and I honestly feel robbed. 😭I was so worried for Mingxi's life during the fight scene, and I kind of hoped—and maybe subconsciously expected—that Mingyue would sacrifice himself to save his brother. And that's exactly what happened. 🥺 That ending I am quite okay with... I just hope Mingxi will now be able to reunite with Ye Li and live the life he dreamed of. 🥹However, I am still feeling uneasy because he stayed behind at Suixue Pass. Maybe his arc ends with him ensuring Xiuyao survives until the end, even if he has to sacrifice his own life for it? That would be the repayment of two lives to Ye Li, because Xiuyao's life is pretty much equal to, if not even more valuable than hers, in Ye Li's eyes. 😟

A Quiet Yet Captivating Beginning

The first episode doesn't try to impress with big twists or dramatic moments—it simply introduces its world with sincerity, and that's exactly what makes it work. Every scene feels intentional, allowing the characters to breathe instead of rushing the story.Gemini and Fourth immediately draw you in with their effortless chemistry. Even with minimal dialogue, their expressions say so much, making the emotional undertones impossible to ignore.The cinematography is beautiful, the pacing is calm, and the atmosphere feels comforting while quietly hinting that there's much more beneath the surface. It's the kind of premiere that doesn't scream for your attention—it earns it.

as i keep saying Seo I Do isn't the sharpest…

as i keep saying Seo I Do isn't the sharpest tool in the toolbox... or this just bad writing. cause he knows Tae Jeong is a cop, one he is attracted too & one that considers Dong Hwa a close friend. the same Dong Hwa that's held in a dog cage in the basement & Seo I Do didn't make sure to go over the house with a fine tooth comb the sec he knew of who Tae Jeong was?!? even if Tae Jeong didn't come back shouldn't he have made extra sure he didn't leave any evidence behind??? (pretty sure those finger prints r his & not Dong Hwa who was knocked out cold before he was carried into the basement). oh well it is what it is - *******but given everything they both know & need to do & r avoiding doing just cause they r very attracted to each other. how can this have a happy ending?!? idk...

Story

We used to see love triangles, but here we have both intertwined triangles and love quadrilaterals.And there is always more sneaky people outside, i hope ah-jin wont get outsmarted by them.A character whose life was ruined by a small coincidence crossing paths with Ah-Jin, can now get revenge for this terrible event, again through a small coincidence. I don't want Ah-Jin to get hurt, but I'm saddened by her heartlessly putting innocent people in such bad situations.Grandma looks like she knows everything yet she accepts the ah-jin as she is, at least it looks like it now.I rate this episode 100, i decided when that baseball player came up knowing grandma.

4/5 for foreshadowing

Alright, in this episode we're having a little recap and lots of ominous foreshadowing. After establishing that Lifei still doesn't trust Xiuyuan and reminding him that nothing changes just because they're joining the same sect after graduation, Lifei is setting off for a new chapter of her life! Former classmates make a promise to meet in three long years to compare their cultivation! Xiuyuan, of course, will not be that far apart. Smooth introduction of new characters, some charismatic, some a little crazy, and what a convenient coincident - Xiuyuan reunites with the shijie who's already familiar to viewers as a devoted follower of our unsuspecting demon lord! (Really, writers, is it just a coincident that teacher Hu gave a clue to Lifei to join this sect? Does that elusive shixiong with ugly drawn portrait even exist, I wonder??) So many questions soon to be answered. The plot is slowly brewing, and something crucial is bound to happen in the coming three years.

5/5 for steady pace and character growth

The main trio tried to break the artefact bond that binds them, but even though they fell apart with Xiuyuan and Lifei wants to soon part ways with the two boys, noone is not truly willing to erase each other from their hearts. And this is how our students go through a little timeskip! Judging by the scenery, just fast forwarding through the winter, they still know each other for less than a year. During this time the broken relationship was not mended, but through the academy's graduation trial we'll see that Lifei still cares, and Xiuyuan is even more devoted to become stronger to protect her, even from himself. The story is getting ready for the next buildup! Lifei is desperate to enter Wuyue sect to find her shixiong, Xiuyuan is desperate to follow her no matter what, and the Prince desperately asked her to walk the same path as he does, but was blatantly rejected! Doesn't look like he's given up though, so love triangle is still looming over this trio. This episode marks one third of the drama, and so far it keeps a stable pace, moves the plot and develops the characters.
