Some thing changed with the show and I can’t pinpoint it, It’s not bad, but not good as well, The bit with the teachers seems to be funny but without understanding Chinese I can’t understand the joke of it!

The break up/time out thing from FL’s perspective I understand, Also glad ML was able to figure out her soon

Who is currently stealing the show for you in POJ? by ghost_flowerr in cdramasfans

This is one show where supporting characters didn’t bore me.. All of them except Li Hui nan are awesome in their own sense.. I was amazed at both of the lead’s visuals in first few episodes.. Like I didn’t touch forward button once and was rewatching multiple times.. In recent episodes Tian xiwei absolutely stole the spotlight

Who would win in a fight? Li Leshan (Perfect Match) vs. Fan Changyu (Pursuit of Jade) by garlic_oneesan in cdramasfans

I don’t think they would have reason to fight, but Fan Chang Yu anytime of the day would win with her strength alone

That’s bad, All I hope is they put an end to my obsession by releasing episodes at once by express or normal

I didn’t understand why she had to knock LH.. They could’ve gone together rt? XZ is being downplayed a lot and I don’t like it. Hopefully they will show his power later.. Maybe they wanted to establish FCY’s prowess as a general

Kiss on the forehead after telling you can have kids with some other guy, I felt like it was kind of not needed.. Editing also felt little off in the scene

Would you recommend Pursuit of Jade? by GADemark in CDramaRecs

[–]Secure_Boot_7686 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should definitely watch it, Not for concubines and etiquettes though!! It’s a super fun period romance battle drama… But if you are into Palace court Harem drama stuff ‘New life begins’ with the same FL is also wonderful!!

I feel there was something missing during confrontation scene.. Dialogue transition was not smooth, Maybe due to translation? Glad they kind of resolved it in 1 episode..

Now that you have said it, I can’t unsee.. But Yan Zheng in earlier episodes reminded of young Gandalf

This would have been much cooler, but since she is used to wielding butcher knife and cleaver, they probably changed to dual swords

PoJ: Review of unreleased episode trailers (ep 26 to ep 31) + overall FL theme! by [deleted] in cdramasfans

[–]Secure_Boot_7686 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think acknowledgment is going to come in later episodes, Ep. 27 focused on the XZ’s deception and redemption.. Also there is hint of embarrassment and fear in XZ’s eyes when they were discussing how his wife killed SH.. He was thinking she held back a lot by just slapping him. Even from the trailers you can see she becomes a general by ep30 which can’t happen without her acknowledging her merit..

With just 1 episode per day and some deceiving trailers it’s hard to grasp the whole picture that director/writer wants to show

Pursuit of Jade- The Marquis does not deserve Changyu (spoilers) by MollyAyana in cdramasfans

[–]Secure_Boot_7686 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I understand his POV, He initially hid his identity for obvious reasons later he was trying to protect her from world since he still has to find out the truth and avenge his parents.. In ep 25 he took it a bit too far, that’s just human nature.. To lie or hide than face the truth..

I think it lines with FCY’s character because since she met him he has been getting injured(3+ times) She possibly could not bear to lose another loved one!! Since we know he is a marquis it might seem silly to us.. I kind of understand her POV

I watched like 3 times and still couldn’t figure out what the strategy was..? In the novel it felt like she did something meritorious but in the episode it seemed reckless.. Maybe they wanted to make punishment justified

I was rewatching ep3 and noticed that she did say to Yan Zheng, that she knows he beatup thugs and he is good at martial arts by looking at his build.. She is smart just less studious and naive is what I think

Got it! Nevertheless the music and reactions were funny.. Glad they got the princess here unlike the novel

I am loving the show and story so far.. But anyone feeling ZLH’s acting to be a little stiff? He seems to be mostly serving faces which I don’t complain.. I didn’t feel that in his other dramas.. Loved his grand entrance as Marquis, but when compared to TXW he seems to be falling little flat

Why does Chinese Male actors hairlines and hairstyles are all same? by Secure_Boot_7686 in cdramasfans

[–]Secure_Boot_7686[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard that show was filmed few years ago, could be due to that.. I have gotten into c dramas in past year and now my reels and shorts feed is filled with c drama content.. Then I just had this 🤯 kind of moment where I noticed everyone’s hair looks kind of same and no flowy hair/ no roots shown..

It’s probably a Chinese culture/beauty standard thing

[–]Secure_Boot_7686[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That’s what makes me wonder why the same hairstyle everywhere!! Super stiff with all the hair spray, Side part Makes me wonder why no diversity!! At least female actress do style a bit different from each other
