Tricks and truths....

I get why Xian Yue wants to protect everyone, but did she completely forget about Mo Yin being Shi You Ming's ally? -_-;



I did love the fight and the way she vanished.



And I just loooved how the Celestial princess totally left them on their own when everything is happening in the place she was supposed to be guarding. I'm glad to see her go anyways, she was an annoying one too and did absolutely nothing besides getting her body stolen...lol

WOW...

That was an amazing episode. I couldn't quit crying...to see the King and Queen on vacation talking about babies and then to quietly die like that. It is so moving and sad. ITA with amrita828 that it is better than any explosion. I am happy that he talked to both Jae Ha and Hang Ah before he died. Now the Jae Shin who is vivacious to be paralized...unreal!!! I am loving this drama!!!

Best ending to an episode so far!

The end of this episode was long time coming. Finally things are starting to tie together. Jin Ho flat out tells Hye Mi that he doesn't like her. Young Seon tries to hook up Director Choi with Jin Ho, but that just felt awkward. Overall the end of this episode was amazing. Hopefully the next episodes will get better and better.

Open your heart

"Open your heart, and try to be free. Then heaven will open up. All the world's problems..." those were the last words the king ever said to his younger brother Jae Ha, and great words they were.

This episode was simply awesome. It had a lot more depth than the other episodes and the character developing was simply genius. I loved when Hang Ah takes a break from training and when she sees him she sighs, like she's glad that he's there. It just felt absolutely real.

Obviously there were many emotional parts in this episode, I didn't know if I should cry or feel happy.

Becoming one..

Yao Yao lent Xian Yue her soul and they become two in one body. Yao Yao talks so much and this sort of drives Xian Yue up the wall. So much, that Xian Yue asks Yao Yao if she's not tired from all the talking she has done...lol

Real World Drama

I like it!! This episode was definitely better than the last. It's a lot more mature than the dramas that I usually watch, so I find that it can be a bit slow at parts, but surprisingly I haven't skipped any parts of the episode. I find the slow parts to be interesting as well. If you're looking for a fast paced drama, I don't think you'll find it here. I honestly love the chemistry between the two leads. It's amazing!

And another gr8 ep from Love rain

This episode, i learnt sooo much!!! I cant believe Dong Wook became a physicist...wow!! Dong Wook's son is 2 die 4 he is adorable!!! OMG, this might get complecated if u think about it. If Yoo Hee(2012) is alive and In Ha(2012) they might fall for each other and Seo Joon and Ha na will be bro and sis if they get married how awkward!!! Never mind, sorry... anyway the ep itself was amazing!! My favourite part...when they went 2 eat 2gether!!That was a good part.. is it just me or does the assistant come between everything eg. the kiss, giving of that ring, the dress etc. LOL reminds me of Chan Bo in heartstrings!! Can't wait till next ep!!!

Wen Tian's new addiction

I thought his reaction to the oxygen tank was hilarious.



I also laughed a lot when she said "We are doomed, we killed a god" Jajajajaja....I remember it and it just makes me laugh.



It was also funny, how his reaction to the fire god taking the tank was like "No!!! He has my new toy!" while hers (who knows what will happen when an oxygen tank is exposed to fire) is like "Crap! Run!!!" Jajajajaja...

Now why didn' t I think of that?

[Side note: Heh. You can rate an episode even BEFORE it's aired. Before the reviews were in, Ep 7 already had a 1.0 rating--SMH, some people.]



Why am I making an episode review again? Oh yeah. I got my mind effed last night. A birth secret cliche with an extra-twist? Never saw it coming. The parallels are becoming clearer now. Hopefully Lee Gak can discover things naturally, just as the dynamics of his romance with Bak Ha is unfolding naturally. C,mon Princey, you play around with her all day and then at the end of the day, you come at Sena's beck and call?? Wake up, boy!



I know the trio is being used for comic relief but I had hoped for more substance that came along with the humor (or maybe I really need those subs). They contributed nicely in Ep 1 where they searched for clues to the Crown Princess' murder--where are those scenes now?



Scenes with Tae Mu and Se Na are glaring now and are impossible to ignore. Well, ok fine, I get it's necessary for conflict and resolution. Tae Mu for Tae Yong and Se Na for Lee Gak and Bak Ha. But oh oh oh~~these four can get so complicated...

Makes Me Mad!

I'm not mad at the episode, or the acting, or any of that. What I'm mad about is the fact that the episode ended, and at a really good part too!! This drama is getting better and better each episode. I really liked this episode for the interaction between the two leads and how the audience got to see the characters from the 70s in modern day. I want to see the next episode right this minute. :|

Mo Yin....

I found ironically hilarious how Mo Yin is so deluded and blinded by her obsession, yes obsession that is not love, for Rong Di that she says "Once Xian Yue is dead he'll forget her..." (Or something like that...) I actually went "She's been there and done that...for 20 years... and Rong Di didn't forget about her even for one second."



She keeps blaming everyone for all the decisions she has made. just grow up.

A Bit Slow...

It was a bit of a slow start but I like the premise of the drama so I'll keep watching. It definitely is a bit more mature than my usual dramas. To be honest I didn't really like Hyun Bin's look in Secret Garden, but in this drama he looks hot!! Also Song Hye Kyo has to be one of the prettiest and curviest Korean actresses out there. I'm a girl but I can't help but notice that she does seem to have more curves than most Korean actresses. I like the idea of the drama and I love the actors so I'll keep watching.

Ugh...

I was annoyed through out this whole episode. I loved how Park Ha didn't back down before SeNa, and how she said all she felt was pity. But I hate what Lee Gak is doing....The "cute, fluffy" moments had me seething with annoyance. Men....



I did like the Yong Seol and other guys parts.



And that witch SeNa...



Like PD told me, I really do have a love-hate relationship with this drama. I completely loved Eps. 5 & 6 and maybe I hoped for a little too much in this one...Oh, well...lol



And I'm being completely nice with my score because of the parts I did enjoy. But ...ugh...

oh~ my poor eyes~

This drama is going to be the death of me... if SUCH events occur not even in the middle, what's going to be happening in the later episodes? I'm honestly afraid to imagine, it gives me chills (actually in a good way)... As it's an awesome drama.

So many positive emotions got from it today and can't stop crying, cause it was really-really touching, not saying about sad parts...

The family bond came into being... and now the betrayal plot, the romance... ah~ dizzy~

This is THE BEST!!!

Breath stopping

No spoiler had prepared me to the beautiful execution of this episode. The sweetness of the king and queen's last moments, their quiet falling asleep was 100 times more poignant than any burst of violence could have been.

And the undertone of the whole last minutes, the brilliant acting paired with the wonderful music really made me cry.

Falling in love with a drama can be almost painful.
