Scenes I still can't believe happened on my screen. I know I talked about this scene before, BUT how did this get pass the censors?! I'm just stunned this made it through. WKX just casually strolling into the room & taking over brushing ZZS' hair. + (1/7)

+ ZZS letting WKX take over this incredibly intimate moment. THE SORT OF THING you let servants, CLOSE family members (parents & children), & your spouse do. This scene is very much HUSBAND BRUSHING HIS WIFE'S HAIR after they had sex for the first time. I'm convinced they + (2/7)

+ fucked for the first time the night before. NOTHING can convince me otherwise. NOTHING. This is CHINESE GUZHUANG DRAMA 101. And this is the morning after. And ZZH played this scene so softly. FUUUUCK. So gentle & soft & trusting, like the wife after their first night!+ (3/7)

But also in this scene ZZS says, "What is there to be surprised about. I don't know when you would arrive. Or how you would arrive. But I knew you would arrive (come for him)."

And dude, the certainty, it kills me. Especially when I'm like, THEY FUCKED THE NIGHT BEFORE.+ (4/7)

+ Even without cultural knowledge, we know from the FIRST EP that a gift of hairpin is an item exchanged between romantic partners (hey, QJ shi-di). And WKX just casually removed it from his hair and carefully placed it in ZZS' hair! And then the mirror scene, which is + (5/7)

+ is super interesting, b'cos beside the whole Chinese guzhuang trope of a newly married wife looking into the mirror. In WoH specifically it is also used for characters whose days are numbered. ZZS, WKX and GX. I'd love to know why they made the decision to have the use + (6/7)

+ mirror in such a way. Also both ZZS & GX' reflection were clear, but WKX's reflection was warped till he said he can become human again. It was still more warped then ZSS & GX's reflection. Both ZZS & WKX'S mirrors were round, but GX was square. Circle is longevity... (7/7)
