I’m watching the #cdrama #thelegends. It was made in 2018 if I remember correctly. It features #bailu and #xukai. Top billing went to #xiaoyan.
I’m not one to skip episodes but I may with this one. There’s so much filler! There are 56 episodes. There’s one arc that today would be covered in two max three episodes but is dragging on and on and on. I’m up to episode 11 so if you’ve watched it you know what arc I’m talking about.

Finished watching “Forever and Ever” with Ren Jialun and Bai Lu 🌸 I wasn’t in the mood to watch this drama when it was released but it has been a nice watch while waiting for good dramas to drop.

It is a gentle, understated and unfussy love. The reincarnation aspect has been toned down heavily, but it is implicitly still there. It is sad that dysfunctional families are so destructive in both the ancient and modern versions.

Just finished watching “One and Only” with Bai Lu and Ren Jialun 🌸 I didn’t want to watch it when it was released but was in the mood to watch it now.

It is an understated and quietly beautiful drama where the love is communicated in micro expressions rather than in-your-face intimacy. The plot locks the main couple in a dilemma which dominates the entire plot.

Looking forward to the modern ending to this love story…

Just finished watching 🌸 It took me a really long while to get into the drama. It is a very slow burn both with the romance and the unfolding of the palace drama, but it was very rewarding in the end.

and are well cast and spark off each other in subtle ways. On the surface Xie Wei is not likable at all, but our journey is Ning'er's journey of discovering the man beneath the many layers.

The psychology and intrigue in the drama rewarding.

Just realized that in episode 11 of Kunning Palace, Xie Wei is refering to himself when he scolds Ning'er for liking Zhang Zhe. He points out that she shouldn't be obvious in showing who she likes, because others will use him as her weak point. It would explain why Xie Wei is cold towards her... and indirectly reveals that he is jealous.

Am now on episode 11 of "Story of Kunning Palace" and it is definitely beginning to grow on me 🌸 It is clearly a palace drama so I think it simply needed some episodes to establish the characters and their relationships. The characters are also multi-layered so it took a while to understand them.
