Nah I'm not how did I even give that impression?

The fact that the issue didn't even create a ripple in China says a lot about them as a whole country! His late and lousy apology is because someone who monitors overseas fans reaction had to report/brief the severity of the situation to him. They use Instagram via VPN to reach out to intl fans so yea~

Adding more to the agony, there are some petty fan war reasons for that controversy to blow up!

Why are you apologizing?

+ regarding that pheasant feather, it was considered a token of valor back in times. He wore it only twice when he made the official entry as Marquis Wu'an!

You knew everything about c-k dramas/novels/writers/ like literally even kdrama old songs (reply 1988 songs and all)..and you were talking about mandarin ..so i for some reason pre assumed like that until yesterday

Yesterday i asked Madhuri and she said that you are very much Indian and i was like "OMG so stupid of me 🥲🥲"

Yeah in cdrama reddit page they were justifying his racist slurs saying it is their normal reaction to everything and they grew up with such racist funny cursing ways because of which he uttered it casually.. so he havent done anything "that" wrong and that people are jealous of him ..

I was shocked at their superiority complex..

Hi , The story of Pursuit of Jade is interesting, but the best thing about it is the casting. Both the hero and the heroine have done an excellent job, and the camera captures their expressions beautifully.

You can definitely give it a try—even if you don’t usually like costume dramas, this can be a good starting point. The village part, especially before the identity reveal, is very engaging. Even after that, it remains good, but I personally found the first half more engaging.

The headband scene you’re talking about appears in episode 36, and it’s only there for a few seconds. But on Instagram, edits make it look like it’s part of the whole episode

Okay yaar..thanks for explaining

Will start tonight

My problem is, I am a very surface-level fan I can never get too much into fandom stuff, so I automatically switch to learn how things work there! That way, I end up knowing a thing or two about everything in general I am also a reader and love to know the details before watching after years of reading, I learnt how the adaptation process works

To contradict my first line, I am deep into a fandom that I started MTLing novels thus found myself learning Mandarin

Kdrama old stuff, thanks to my googling skills!

True.But it s all buried now..Chinese/koreans are very well known proud racists

Finished you are my lover friend (btw what the heck kinda name this is lol too westernize) anyways I liked it,

I am not much of a friend to lover trope fan but this was a cute watch.

The bonding between the main leads as friends/brotherhood was just WOW.

They knew everything about each other, ML even knew what gibberish she says hehe. Their understanding, their communication, their trust for each other is just too good. To be honest I actually felt weird seeing their relationship lol, I used to skip der kiss scenes which we didn't get till epi 24 haha.

But they made a cute couple. Through thick and thin, through happiness and sorrow, just always der for each other

The 2nd couple (married couple) were couple goal for sure, good to see a married couple from starting till end, happy and foolish hehe.

The 3rd couple aka introvert IT and actress, they were adorable, wish they had more screentime and scenes together.

Overall cute show for sure. Must watch if you dont want a stressful show hehe. This was beautiful drama with no real villains

P.S. the bad guy really had a sad backstory which made him a bad guy, i felt so bad for him and his gf (dark ending for them)

Another P.S the main lead are friends from long time in real life too, they grew up together, just imagine the awkwardness they felt when they were kissing. This is called PROFESSIONALISM.

By the way, has anyone watched Fireworks of My Heart? How is it? Would love to hear your reviews!

Swati, how are you finding Pursuit of Jade? Personally, I feel this is the hero’s best performance so far, and the makeup artists have done an amazing job—his look has come out perfectly on camera.
