I had to succumb to my "impatience" lol. Although I should not start any other new dramas yet, lol, I took a peek and ended up watching Ep 1 and loved it!

 

I won't spoil anyone's watching pleasure, save for a few random thoughts:

1. Love the interesting interplay of comics with films. The cinematography is breathtaking overall!

 

2. Not liking the role and overall appearance of ZLS (Ep 1). She's one of my fave actresses, especially after "Dating in the Kitchen" but she seems so timid and lifeless here. Hopefully, there'll be better development in her role later. If not, why take a step back in your popularity and take up this role, ZLS? I haven't read up on this drama and the novel, but I may have to now, for my sanity.

 

3. I was transported back into the world of Harry Potter, and I must say, I loved it!

Haha. IKR!

I ought to stop starting new dramas already! So many to keep up with and so little time, even if given 24/7/365, to watch them all! There are good ones airing currently, and more good ones to come for both Cs and Ks!

WuLei didi is really growing up to be one find looking man....he work hard for those bulk....he workout everyday at the set...seen in an interview how he say as the role is showing someone who is fluid and good in fighting he need the bulk to show off
