@PrideInBaek @Jimimis @mysteric @Drew_B

forgive me for tagging if you are not interested but I´ve noticed some love for cdramas on your side.

Anyhoo, I was checking the site for .. something ... and came across comments under the main info that were talking about the show premiering with 40+5 extra episodes in JUNE! (which is in 2 days?) and if that is true I´M SO EXCITED. because I really do hope we get a good show that maybe we can all watch together and die a little after every episode.

obviously I´m here for Song Ji Yang, my beautiful fragile son, but everything is just screaming THIS HAS TO BE GOOD because the novel is apparently wonderful (I haven´t read it).

so here are some sources:

Winner Is King

In the age of the Great Liang Dynasty, the lives of the people were made convenient with steam-powered machines that run on a fuel named Violetstream...

yeah, I mean there is no concrete date, but at least they have already passed censorship so that´s the first step ♥

Song Ji Yang, my beautiful fragile son

he is, I might watch The Drama King (or something like that?) just for him. apparently it´s funny and cheesy and dumb, but I´ll suffer for the sake of no one dying and Ji Yang´s beauty :D

info on characters. @Jimimis I can see you already loving Gu Yun :D :D. look at Song Ji Young playing a girl. I mean I doubt they´ll keep that concept in the drama, but who knows.

@PrideInBaek who is your fav?

do you think they´ll keep that in the drama? I have found some more info that they were born a boy, raised a girl by their parents and they can go by both ganders depending on the mood. the pronouns were used as "he" but I haven´t read the book so I am trying to keep it proper. but I´m more and more tempted, I just don´t know if the writing is gonna be good? it´s incredibly long

I have little faith that they will make the character gender-fluid in the drama but maybe we will be surprised

true, I was surprised about how many daring quotes they have kept in the Word of Honor and it was supposed to pass as bromance :D. where do I find myself a bro like that :D
