    Yep, I noticed it the first time.  That's their first "kiss".

    I noticed it too the first time I watched.  WJ doesn't mind the kiss:lol: I think all the older versions have this part too.  But I like this version the most because the lip stick mark is very light.  IIRC the 2009 version used a bigger cup and the mark was so intense it's look kind of gross.

    A common comment I've been seeing among Chinese fans is that they like the fact that this version is missing a very important scene from the book. The scene where ZZR asks ZWJ who he loves the most out of the four girls. Every other version seems to have that scene except this one. I have to say, I totally agree that scene is not necessary. Which is why I believe the writer/director decided not to shoot it. It's very clear cut of who ZWJ loved in this version, making ZZR ask that question would only insult the character's intelligence. This version never needed it. It seems the entire Wuxia world in this show likes to gossip about the ZWJ and ZM scandal. Rumors that are true, by the way, so I guess they're not really rumors lol. 

    Definitely not necessary because even XX who is blind can tell how deep WJ loved MM.:lol:

    I also think that WJ did have a crush toward ZR at the earlier episodes, before ZM came to his life.  Although I am not sure whether it's fueled by his fond memories of their childhood or by the "now" ZR.  I am leaning toward the earlier. The ZR that he remembered was based on his impressions of their childhood ZR. However, I felt that he started to drift away from his infatuation when she stabbed him at GMD,  either unconsciously or consciously beneath all his kind treatment toward ZR including his refusal to believe ZM when she said that ZR was the culprit of the Snake Island fiasco. I felt that moment at GMD,  he was disappointed when she chose to obey her shifu than to stand up for him,  although he still masked it.

     

    Then ZM appeared. This sassy,  witty,  and brave young girl who challenged him in every way he knew. It's not love at first sight,  but definitely his attention was captured at the first sight. Slowly but surely, her memories started to fill him.  She is the only girl of the four that he remembered when he's alone. Her items were the mementos he kept till the end,  the items he looked at while smiling to himself silly when he is alone, the item he is most unwilling to discard, the item  he remembered the detailed carving (impressive memory there :lol:), and the item he kept close to him and worn in his body as he completed his duties (the gold box, embroidered handkerchief from her, and the wooden hairpin she has worn before her "death"). I have to say, it is very clear that in this version,  other girls have no chance once ZM appear. :P ZR is his first (or his 2nd) infatuation,  but ZM is his true and last love. The latter is the most important one. 

     

    After the foiled wedding,  I think WJ was harsh toward her because he still put his guard up,  and he's still trying to calm himself after all the shock he faced: both from his bold action and from the viciousness of ZR attack. But then when he was trying to heal ZM, he heard ZM said something about her being able to do what she said she will do (or sometjing like that), and he directly jumped to say that it's one of the reason they cannot be together, it's because he knew she can do what she said she will do. For me,  it shows his deep fear that one day,  he will be her downfall. He sounds desperate there,  it's like he still tried to hold on to this reason but his wall of defense has started to crumble even more,  to the point of no return. B) afterwards, it just slipping more and more to his feeling until he decided to go all out and abandon all pretense. :lol:

    Loved reading your perspective.  Agreed WJ was infatuated with ZR that's why he kept the handkerchief for so long.

    After she stabbed him at GMD, she was captured by ZM so no further relationship development their.  Then come the most beautiful princess who is daring, witty, flirting entering his life. 

     

    After the wedding WJ healing ZM at the cave, he said there's no future between them because he is more afraid.  Afraid she is true to her words (she'll sacrificed herself for him if her family try to harm him and she also won't allow WJ hurt her family).  Yes, he fear she'll lose her life in the process with the conflicts of the war.

    Potential break ups count

    1. How about the fight on eps 50 where she throw away the wooden hairpin?

    2. When she left before the wedding, she kind of cry and stand alone by the river. Is this breakup also?

    3. When she considered dead and WJ grieved over her by the grave, i think this is breakup by ZM decision.

    4. How about we go back to snake island, when WJ decided not to proceed the kiss? Telling her, when they return to the mainland they are enemies better keep distance with each other. 

     

    Wow so many breakups moments for the couple. I guess this is the reason why we can move on. There's not enough closure for our hearts.

     

    Wow, you should see ZM style, wardrobe and attitude when she 'welcome' the 6 main righteous sects in Lin An temple so much girl power in her there. I think it's on eps 27

    Indeed, so many breakups hahaha....

    1st breakup  > snake island on the beach

    2nd breakup > by the river

    3rd breakup >  WJ and ZR getting marry

    4th breakup > return to Mongols, threw hairpin
     

    WJ mentioned three women in the drama resembled his mom 

    MM  > beautiful

    A Li >  her eyes and smiles

    XZ   >  singing

     

    Sorry ZR, WJ never mention anything about you.:lol:

    OOoooh. I didnt get that part because no eng subs and I couldn't understand when I was reading the viet part for that scene so I just kinda skipped that part. Interesting. Yeah cause we all know he doesn't love her and is only doing it out of duty, guilt and his promise.

    Yeah, you r right.  He has that quilty look like being caught expressions.

    I did kinda question that too in the beginning a little and then their scenes where he kept holding her hand and hugging her in ep 40 after him and ZM "broke up".

    I think in the beginning its more like "long time no see" and like they finally got to reunite. I don't think he liked her in that way. They do have that special bond because of their childhood relationship and they do care for each other. He definitely wants to protect her like she did for him in the past. 

    In ep 40, idk I think he is trying to forget ZM and they did kinda break up ish. He made a promise to ZR so he's going to keep it. But i still dont get why he had to be so touchy touchy with her. 

     

    Indeed, in ep 40 he's trying to forget ZM and at the same time he wanted to try to love ZR and move on.  So he kind of  forced himself to show some affection for ZR.  He probably thinking ZR gonna be his wife sooner or later anyway.  But there was a scene in ep 41 where ZR waited for him to eat dinner late at night.  They have this conversation , ZR mentioned she will treated and spend more times with Jue Er then WJ keep saying thank you.  ZR stated WJ being too courtesy treating her like stranger or something like that.  Then you can see a uncomfortable expression on WJ's face.  So yeah, I think he's forcing himself with the touchy touchy affection, at lease this is what I wanted to believed.  Hope I'm not over analyzed.:lol:

I didnt understand anything on the webpage but i Clicked on this one MV that turns out to be 7 minutes, I kid you not, of the kiss scene replayed to different background musics. LOL. Was def not expecting that. Thought I'd shared it with you guys.

    Yeah, I loves this MV too.  They keep repeating the kiss scene with differences songs.

    Wait, which fan made MV is this? I can't believe I missed it.

    Guys, did ZM ever clarify how she was captured by her father? Did they really walk into Ming Sect and just took her away? Securities must be bad. 

    I saw the MV on weibo.com '忌敏' dedicated for WJ and MM.  Sorry I don't have account and don't know how to link the video.  Those cfans made a lots of amazing MVs.

     

    @LaurenPanna Maybe you can find it and post it here.

    I thought it was after she told him that they need to get going and don’t want to delay of finding his Yifu. I love the way he smiles “thank you, MinMin” looking at her and pull her in his arm. 

    I think it was the next morning after he feeds her medicine and heals her with his nie gong in the shed.  Remember he was swooning looking at her doing the farm works.  He was so touched and in love when MM said she make soupy rice for him.  He even compliments it tasted good and drank 2 bowls (even though MM said it was over cooked and burned).:lol: That's true love right there.  CMIIW, I don't think he ever compliments ZZR cooking skills.  Then he confessed  he was glads that MM interrupted his wedding with ZZR because he doesn't feels right and might regretted it.  I believed WJ decided to be with MM at that moment.  He can't hold back any longer.

    Btw I'm super curious on whatever happened to the pearl and gold hairpin that MM gifted to WJ. Anyone can help shed some light? Has it mentioned anywhere?

    Sad to say it was never mentioned again.  I was hoping he had it with him all the time like the gold box.  So after he threw the box away he still have the gold hairpin to yearning for MM when he missed her.:dissapointed:
