That Sword & The Brocade kiss

Every time I watch episode 35. 🫠

And then the next scene features the image of bees pollinating flowers in the morning. Like, how on the nose, people.

*some C-drama spoilers*

Rant: I admit that my sample size for this is very small (five dramas) compared to all the content out there, but just based on the Chinese period dramas Unchained Love and Love is an Accident, what is with these female leads??? Like, okay, you can trend away from stereotypical female leads if you want, but make it make sense. Usually, for romantic dramas, you want the couple to feel equal in terms of ability or respectability so that it feels like they’re truly made for each other… but in both of those dramas, the female leads are annoying, come up with the stupidest ideas, and get themselves or the male lead into trouble by being so selfish. And yet, the handsomest, richest, most powerful man is falling for…her??? Like please, be serious.

On the contrary, one of the reasons why I enjoyed The Sword and the Brocade, Love Between Fairy and Devil, and Miss the Dragon were because those female leads were actually on the same level as their male leads. In The Sword and the Brocade, Yi Niang was a bit of a know-it-all, but she was smart, loyal, and brave. In Love Between Fairy and Devil, Xiao Lan Hua was annoying in the first half, but she ends up being sacrificial and willing to endure pain for her lover. And in Miss the Dragon, Liu Ying eventually reincarnates into a badass lady boss. Like, these women actually matched their male leads and were interesting and cool. Their arcs showed growth, some kind of charm and depth to their identities, and actual evidence of why these perfect male leads would fall for them and risk their lives for them.

But in Unchained Love and Love is an Accident, the female leads offer literally nothing but stupidity and annoyance. They’re not even good comic relief because it’s excruciating to watch their half-baked plans fail. When the male lead starts to become attracted to them and soft towards them, I’m like ????? Really dude? That does it for you? Like, what is the deal with these frustrating female leads? Give me a middle-class female lead who’s unimpressed by wealth and causes the male lead to change. Give me a cunning female lead who has her defenses up due to hardships she endured but has a change of heart due to the male lead’s gentleness. Give me an enemy tribe leader female lead who can beat up the male lead but finds him amusing and lets him live then eventually is charmed by his honesty and sincerity. If you don’t want a stereotypically helpless or overly feminine female lead, there are literally hundreds of other ways to do it without the idiotic, charmless, selfish brats that we’re supposed to believe made these powerful lords fall deeply in love.

Is it a trend now in period pieces to have this kind of female lead? Like an anti-hero kind of thing? So annoying and honestly, ruins the drama. I watched Unchained Love because I really liked Dylan Wang’s other dramas and Love is an Accident because of Xu Kaicheng, but I literally had to fast-forward all the parts with the female leads because I couldn’t stand them. I don’t think I even finished either of them—does it get any better? I didn’t even hang around long enough to find out.

Am I the only one feeling this way, or are other people just as annoyed???

I’m rewatching scenes from “the sword and the brocade” because it SLAPS but I don’t want to watch episodes just to fast forward to my favorite scenes. so I’m watching the cuts through these random youtube accounts that post drama highlights and this one channel writes their titles for the show so vulgarly like I’m about to report them!!!!!! this drama and the couple within is so gentle... there’s drama and conflict of course, but overall their relationship is so docile and sweet. the whole show is pretty tame and their romance is driven in scenes that are much more mature and respectful than extremely passionate and rated R. there’s a scene where it’s revealed that the female lead’s maid has an ulterior motive, and she goes behind her back to her husband and tries to seduce him. he is not interested, but the whole notion behind it is that her husband loves his wife enough that he gets visibly very upset that someone that close to her would think of doing something like that. the wife also knows that her maid is somehow being forced to do this, therefore plays along when she witnesses their interaction just so her husband would calm down. It’s this mutual understanding that makes this couple so ideal and the title of this scene is like “prince disgusted by the whores! tenderness is only reserved for his wife” LIKE I GUESS THAT SUMS IT UP WELL BUT PLEAAAAASSUHHHHHHH... she’s not a whore.

#theres another one where its like 'prince gets an erection'#HE DID NOT GET AN ERECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE THIS FUCKING C HANNE:L #the sword and the brocade #borger diary #borger watch
