Moonlit Reunion (子夜归) is adapted from the novel The Daily Life Of Mei Furen Doting On Her Husband written by Fu Hua.
So what have I been doing lately? Watching this drama! Surprise! And I dig it! It’s hitting all my heart strings in the right places. And I do love all the tropes in this drama, like they were created for me. <3<3<3
After what felt like a decade, my boy Yang Yang has returned to the Ancient Drama genre, and this time, it’s an adaptation of a web novel/donghua, of the same name, more or less. I’ve heard the source material was epic, but who knows. I’m here to review this adaptation only.
So, The Immortal Ascension, I’m 19 episodes in so far as of this review. The last time I wrote one of these review, it was for a dumb drama that I hated as much as the hate I got for hating it. But let’s not go there. How is Immortal Ascension so far? Well, in short, it’s good, so far. I’m enjoying it. Enough to write an early impression.
I haven’t recapped in years. Lol. It felt strange to the fingertips to exercise this much!
Based on the popular webtoon, “Noona Fan Dot Com” by Kim Seng Yeon, this is the romantic story of a woman who dedicates her entire life to a celebrity only to be blindsided by her overbearing, handsome new boss who finds out about her fangirling of a younger pretty boy of the famous boy group called White Ocean. Seong Deok Mi is an art curator for a prestigious art museum during the day and the loyal manager of the pop idol Cha Si An’s fansite at night. She uses her business trips as excuses to catch glimpses of her Cha Si An, treasures her high-powered camera to capture the clearest picture of her prince charming only to photoshop his photos before publication, and goes on the fangirl version of a pilgrimage to holy places Cha Si An’s feet have walked upon. Her new boss, Ryan Gold, a genius artist from America who discontinued painting for mysterious reasons, clashes with Seong Deok Mi the first few times they interact, revealing the sexual tension behind all that “interacting.” Through Cha Si An and a coveted painting by an unknown painter, Ryan Gold and Seong Deok Mi become more connected outside of their professional lives.
Finally, the end is here! Can’t believe I made it through all 60 episodes after everyone else gave up. I must be a crazy person. 🙂 There are some actors on this show who I hope to see again in other series, but I hope I never end up recapping a series like this one again. Don’t think I could make it through next time.
So let’s finish the final three episodes of Martial Universe!
WARNING! DO NOT OPEN FOR SPOILERS!
Did a marathon of last week’s episodes to catch up on this series before the final three episodes and now I’m all annoyed with this series all over again. This week was flashbacks galore, sad music galore, pity parties everywhere, things get even more complicated and then they ended the week by breaking my heart. *sigh* If Lang Tian doesn’t suffer a miserable death at the end of this… argh!!!
So let’s hurry up and get through week 4 of Martial Universe!
WARNING! DO NOT OPEN FOR SPOILERS!
After moving to another state and trying to get settled in, I’m catching up on the latest episodes of Martial Universe. This week our Tiger finally found his Tigress (or I should say Fox), Lang Tian still can’t be defeated, Qing Zhu finally finds out what happened to her father and Lin Diao even shows that he’s more than just a little brat.
So let’s start week 3 of Martial Universe!
WARNING! DO NOT OPEN FOR SPOILERS!
Hey Everyone! Sorry for the wait~ School got a bit hectic, and life kind of got in the way. However, I was finally able to get the time to get screen-caps done! I’m looking to have Episodes 3 and 4 done before the weekend is over, so please stay tuned for that!
This episode : It seems that are leads are finally going to return to the historical world. I wonder how the story is going to progress, as this season seems to be a prequel to Season 1. The quality of this season has definitely improved as they sets and costumes look way nicer~ Anyways, I hope you’re just as excited as I am to find out what’s going to happen next!
