about ships in series

i didn't want to start because there were too many episodes but it was much better than i expected. i continued for faifa and wine. faifa is the greenest forest i've ever seen. the acting was very good. force and book improved their acting a lot. perth and santa made a good couple but perth was dull as usual. santa is really the sunshine of this world. this was the second series i watched junior and mark in, i think their acting is pretty good and their chemistry is perfect. i think the marc and poon is very cute couple. their characters in this series were also very cute and funny. aou and boom are on their way to becoming my favorite bl couple, their chemistry is great and they always make you feel that they love each other. when i first watched them i thought boom hated aou but they turned into something great. this series was really great I can say this in short. even though there are so many episodes, it is never difficult to finish the series because it creates a comfortable space.

the ep get's over in a blink, i am enjoying…

the ep get's over in a blink, i am enjoying myself so much.... recognized the dude playing Khaofang but i didn't recall from where & i for sure didn't recognize Tan, as Klao from Perfect 10 Liners. but when i saw him & Khaofang together i realized they were the couple that i didn't care for, that were being forces-fed to me, when i wanted the plot to focus on the mains. but as i love Tan's goofy personality i am looking forward to this coupling - even though Khaofang's mean girl behavior isn't making me happy. *********************************************************************************************************************************but there so many fun & adorable character's here that there isn't a boring moment.

Traitors everywhere

I have no words for that shit of an uncle. He is so beyond despicable. He is not even a smart villain. He is a complete idiot as well. He hurts his own brother and then wants to repent it. That advisor needs to be strung up. The governor holds his daughter and grandchild hostage to force BiZhi to fight for Liangya. That man’s ego is so disgustingly big for such a mite of a person. I hope that he is killed and left for the crows. Even his own wife despises him. She at least got Ci out to warn everybody. The general was so damn brave. And even with everything against him his top priority was that damn orchid. He wanted her to know where his heart was even at the end. I am annoyed at the generals turning on Ci and I am grieved that he couldn’t just spit out what was happening before sleeping the entire day away. The writers were very cruel with this😝😭 BiZhi will forever feel guilty because that ass of a leader forced his sword into the general. He is another one of those creeps that wants to share the wealth of blood on their hands with the innocent. He knows he has trapped BiZhi now with that single thrust along with the threat of his wife and child. He has forced BiZhi to break his vow and he doesn’t think he will survive the Wei’s even if he escapes the Qiaos. The treachery of that uncle and advisor is so sickening it makes you physically nauseous to see it. And after their worst acts they act like two of three stooges with a slapstick idiot routine. They are excellent actors or I would not hate them all so much.😝Panyi is in a troubled state and now the real colors will show from the surrounding areas. Yan wants to support his cousin but just like the other ass governor he puts Yan under house arrest. Ci can definitely sympathize.😝 The mayor of Panyi mourns his lost brother and there is heartache all around. And YuLou😝 She has illusions of grandeur even greater than the ass of Liangya. I can’t wait til her vision turns to dust before her eyes. Gma alone could kick her sorry ass out of the house. I have no clue why Shao didn’t just kill her when he should have. Lots of people are dying for that bit of mercy. I am sick, angry, and broken over this episode. This shows the juxtaposition of all that is right and wrong with Qiao clan. The governor would be easier to take if he wasn’t such a feckless coward. He should have had a shouting match with Shao from the beginning about feeling shunned rather than sneak behind his back whining about getting ignored. He is a complete waste of space and doesn’t deserve to steal air to breathe.😝I want to see his own clan get rid of him. Give the wife a dagger. I bet right now she would be happy to be first in line.😝

Orchids are now red: After Wei Liang

Two evils are making a plan. Poor Xiao Qiao's father. What a bad father you must be to use your daughter as bait. I wish Qiao Fan had killed herself right there. That way, poor people wouldn't have died because of Bi Zhi and the other evils. My fears have come true 😭😭😭😭 I feel so bad right now. The white orchid that Wei Liang bought for Xiao Tao was now stained red with Wei Liang's blood. I don't know how I watched those scenes without crying. Poor Wei Liang, he died before he could get married 😭😭😭😭 If something happened to Qiao Ci there, I wouldn't be able to handle it 😭😭😭😭 Now one of the 4 inseparable siblings is no longer with us 😭😭😭😭 Xiao Tao can't accept Wei Liang's death like me 😭😭😭😭 I didn't like this episode at all. There should be no sad episode like this 😭😭😭😭

Solid original story and characters, butchered by a terrible scriptwriting. Actors did well

If you decide to watch this drama. know that it will hook you (as it hooked me) with a dark and serious note of political turmoil, explaining the reasons of a deep clash and hatred between two clans, once united in a common vision and a great project of canal constructions. Unfortunatelly, just after the initial 5-6 eps, it will turn into a fluffy beating around the bush romance.C-drama scriptwriters regularly have the following problem: they can't decide a genre in which their story should be set, they can't accept a simple fact that if you open a serious plot, you must keep that "promise" and you can't suddenly turn it into an idol-drama. Personally, I don't disdain a fluffy romance either, if it is true to itself. If I am not in a mood to watch fluffy stuff, I'll pass, if I am, I'll watch it. But what I hate is the BETRAYAL of the initial expectation the author(s) of the story created. Because it means, the author(s) is manipulating me and challenges my intelligence.Actually, this or these poor screen adaptor(s) challenged my intelligence even in those initial episodes, when the FL tries to prevent the main male antagonist (Liu Yan) of flooding (and killing many people) the downstream of a canal by... burning the sulfur bags hidden by the bad guy in the granary (!) of Panyi city and destined to blow up the dam on the canal. Burning sulfur in that granary, doesn't only means: you, a smart FL, will explode yourself, but you will also intoxicate the whole Panyi to the death with sulfur dioxide (SO2) to the death, provoking probably a greater damage than the flooding. I've thought, ok, it's a C-drama, no big deal...But later another "granary plot" didn't make any sense and it regarded the main female antagonist, Su E Huang, who was able to take out of the Wei's granary a resistent wheat seed sent from the FL's clan, cook it and sent it back, in order to force the ML to choose between his (Qiao) wife and his (Wei) cousin, who was supposed to preside over the granary. At this point, I've decided to check if these things happened the original novel, just to know who to blame, the author of the novel or the screenwriter. Neither of these two happened in the novel. The novel isn't great in its narrative but it is well structured in plots, actions and political intrigues. If the screenwriter sticked to it, she (they) would have done a much better job. Instead, she (they) felt smarter, a better artist, able to re-wrote a perfectly logical and rational story, by making it totally illogical just to make an idol drama.Because, very differently from the drama, the novel MADE SENSE ALL THE TIME, its characters and their decisions, plots and motivations were realistic, both on the protagonists' and the antagonists' side. It isn't a great novel but it makes sense, it doesn't offend your basic knowledge and intelligence. Did this dumb scriptwriter ever attend an elementary school? If she did, she would have heard of communicating vessels principle: you can't raise the level of the marsh by DRAINING the downstream and so on.The amount of nonsense is not limited to the actions, the screen adaptation totally unnecessary exaggerated and/or twisted practically all original characters, making them nonsensical as well, Manman is this superpowered and superskilled woman (who would have blowned up herself in reality in the first eps), Daqiao is a woman totally comitted just to one man to make such a dumb decisions, and all the male characters are basically dumbed down.Last but not least, the drama adaptation failed to maintain the atmosphere, the geist of its time, in many episodes.On the positive side, the chemistry between actors is ok, the direction is mainly ok. the artistic department also greatly did its job, horrible wigs aside
