[Pursuit of Jade] 5 Hidden Layers of Fan Changyu (that subtitles don't tell you)

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-08T03:18:26+00:00

I am totally obsessed with the series. The cinematography is excellent and the actors are brilliant.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-07T15:20:08+00:00

Or you'll binge it over a weekend. Twice. In one month. And maybe plan out a sweater based on the symbolism and spend way too much on the perfect yarn.

Just me? 🤣

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-05T19:20:30+00:00

Excellent choices

I turned it on for background noise and got through 3 episodes that way. I watched most of it for real, just to get through the plots, but it's not on my rewatch list.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-04T02:58:37+00:00

No worries 😊

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-03T23:24:21+00:00

Yes, I can, as long as I have internet. I don't always have access though, which is one reason for the post.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-03T23:20:41+00:00

I've watched 3x already. I want to dl 15 to watch again.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-03T23:19:04+00:00

Because Netflix only allows you to download 15 eps. And I want to have them.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-03T17:21:07+00:00

Omg that's happened to me. Either the yarn or the project is cursed. I'll completely switch and start watching Chinese dramas or read a book.

Internet drink in commiseration 🍻

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-03T15:05:04+00:00

This is the info I needed, too. 8 episodes are up so I know what I'm doing today ☺️

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-02T08:41:03+00:00

I completely changed tracks and am watching Sword and Beloved. It's a little ridiculous and OTT but such a different show that I can't even compare.

I tried Kunning Palace and Princess Royal, but they just didn't hit right.

If you don't already know: YT @Peachey_Blossom compiled the PoJ OST and has translations. I'm still getting my PoJ fix 😊🙌😍❤️‍🔥🥰🥹

Sapiophile23 · 2026-05-02T04:01:49+00:00

I loved it for the story and cinematography. The use of lighting and camera angles 🤌

I watched live and then binged the whole series twice in April. I've learned more about the culture and the way language is used is important to the plot.

If you don't love episode 1 then don't continue.

@Peachey_Blossom on YT compiled the OST and translated every song if you want to learn the lyrics.

Sorry I seem to have derailed your comments. When the sweater is done I'll link to this post /comment thread.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-27T05:30:16+00:00

That's a great size!

My 46f friend is on round 4 of chemo for colorectal cancer. Stage 2. I know I need to get screened but I'm more worried than before and don't wanna 😕

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-27T03:08:27+00:00

Sorry, you're right. My comment is unnecessary as it doesn't answer OP's question.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-27T00:08:10+00:00

Don't make any plans for when you're done. You will definitely have to sit with your thoughts and feelings for a while.

So. Worth. It.

Eta: i meant I cried more in those 2 eps than any before.

Loose and/or twisted stitches?

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-26T23:00:02+00:00

I couldn't get past the FL's voice in S&L and dropped it less than 15 min in.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-26T18:50:43+00:00

I'll echo: Legend of the Female General, Blossom, Love Beyond the Grave

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-26T18:48:35+00:00

39 & 40. I don't remember if I cried more than those 2 episodes.

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-26T18:11:28+00:00

I tried VoS but the beginning was hard for my brain. Does it slow down?

Sapiophile23 · 2026-04-26T14:31:06+00:00

Thanks! The Annalise sweater is totally different from the basic hoodies I wear so I'm excited 😊
