#ADWAD
I mean also I’m still laughing about the bright blue poison chicken feet in ADWAD, sometimes you don’t have to be subtle.

I’ve fallen behind on #Glory - I need to catch up! (I got totally absorbed by ADWAD!)

When it comes to dramas - having seen irony & cleverness done to death in Western movies & dramas - I tend to prefer emotionally sincere stories, & I was probably less patient with a show like ADWAD as a consequence

For example, I think you dropped #FlourishedPeony after 1 episode! - but for those of us who got into FP it is as emotionally consuming as ADWAD seems to be for you guys (although clearly they are completely different dramas, with completely different emotional templates)

For context, I had just come off of watching #PrisonerofBeauty, so I wasn’t in the right frame of mind to see a - as I perceived it (rather unfairly) - parody of the same drama

The next time I try ADWAD I will try to approach it more as a philosophical drama, & see if I get further into it 👍

lol

I can totally see why some people loved ADWAD - it’s playful & meta & very well made

But some of us love a good historical action drama with an unlikely romance (female generals weren’t a common thing back in the day etc etc)

No eunuchs necessary 😅

Peace & love Alisa! ☺️ ☮️ ✌️

I can see how much you love ADWAD 😉, so I honestly don’t mind which ‘team’ wins

I’ll definitely give it a second shot in the New Year

Have a happy Christmas! 🎄🥳

I didn’t watch ADWAD (more than a couple of episodes), so I can’t say how she was in that (although I’ve heard some express frustration with the character she had to play)

But she’s really endearing in this drama (S&B). Her character will likely evolve as the story progresses, but she’s already

oh NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO okay i'm gonna have to go with ADWAD

ONLY BECAUSE i haven't watched LOTFG yet

this one for me has to be ADWAD mainly bc i haven't watched the other (and tbh i'm only on ep25 of ADWAD)

HOWEVER it has had a *lot* of oh sh*t!!!! moments right beside some hilarity and i find that entertaining 🤣🤣🤣

Will you choose the xianxia reincarnation star-crossed lovers drama,
or the transmigration-into-a-script comedy romance?

I was going to suggest this as well - ADWAD is so good on every level. Great script, great performances (including deft screwball comedy from the leads), incredible costumes, big concept - even the score is incredibly well done. Very very fun.

It was a tough matchup but I think ADWAD is simply a better show in a lot of ways
December 18, 2025 at 3:07 AM
I have, with some sorrow, chosen ADWAD. That’s how good that show is!
December 18, 2025 at 2:00 AM
Sadly, I can't rant about ADWAD because in my one annual "act like an adult" moment, I noped out of it after 1 ep

I enjoyed both shows plenty, but ADWAD is just the more well done, competently written of the two, so it gets my vote.

Granted, #ADWAD is fun. But my heart aches while watching the squad here, as I am reminded of the squad goals in #AJourneyToLove. #YuShisan you are simply unparalleled.

So this is a good moment to admit that I really wanted to kiss the costume/makeup artist who decided to use his mole as a central part of the look in his alter ego in ADWAD?

Hmm I guess this one goes to “A Dream Within a Dream”. They used a lot of jokes, memes, poetry, and cinema in the show, which are highlighted in the thread below. It’s quite fun to read about

Li Yitong! Watched her act for the first time in ADWAD and she is so so good. She’s great at balancing comedy and drama, and her voice acting is really good too. Plus I love how bubbly she is behind the scenes. I’m alr excited for Gu Le Feng Hua Lu and The Vanishing Beauty.

God the actor for the emperor played the scriptwriter in ADWAD and I’m fhdjdkdk

ADWAD is one of my fave Cdramas this year 🥰 And probably one of my ultimate drama faves now
August 2, 2025 at 2:29 AM
Rewatching some scenes and WOW the foreshadowing LOL Also ADWAD does falling scenes really well

Fdjdkdj my friend is watching ADWAD now and I feel like I’m truly one of the few who was glad Song Yimeng didn’t give in to Nan Heng quickly LMAO
