Guest Tinkiebell Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I just finished watching this drama. It was so heart wrenchingly beautiful. I hope it gets more recognition that it so much deserves.Seriously, this is a masterpiece, why aren't more people talking about this drama here?

40somethingahjumma Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I've made a dent in this one. I suppose it's a growing up story as much as a wartime survival tale. Once I got past the immaturity of the twins, and the contradictions within the Hu family, it wasn't too bad. The brother--in-law is probably the most interesting character. A crook in some ways and a strong family man in others. Despite being such a dodgy character, there's something oddly likeable about him. I've barely seen Wallace's character thus far but it's nice to play "name-all-the-actors-from-Lang-Ya-Bang". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BellyButton Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Fanvid. Love how Xu Xiang Xiang and Gu Qing Ming's relationship developed. Love how Xiang Xiang grew from a stubborn immature girl to a responsible and resourceful wife. http://www.tudou.com/v/Gg7Gan9b2uo/&resourceId=0_04_05_99/v.swf http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/Gg7Gan9b2uo/ About love...

Um yeah the 'main themes' so to say. i mean not the OST that appears within the episode as background music but a clip with music before the episode starts (an opening) and another clip with different scenes and music at the end of an episode 8ending) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristina303 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Ok so I found the opening titles on a Wallace fanpage. The quality is really low but the opening is so good. I love it! http://www.wallacehuo.info/MinguoSeries/Battle-of-Changsha/BoC-trailer-with-English-subs/i-pVTBkVb/A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BellyButton Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 @Kristina303, there are two versions of the songs. One sang by Wallace & Yang Zi and the other Wallace alone. I downloaded Wallace's MP3 on my computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budgerie Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Watched this drama some time ago. Nice drama but sadly, it isn't a drama to everyone taste. Apart from Officer Gu (Wallace), i like the bro-in-law. Rough and loud exterior but actually very warm/nice guy inside him. Just see how he treats his wife.

Asgarla Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 There are really not many war dramas that I like and that I even rewatch. Battle of Changsha is one of those dramas. I have rewatched it at least 4 times. I love to see how the characters grow and mature and how their relationships develope. Yes..there are many sad scenes, but there are also funny and some romantic ones. Most of all, I really like the ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkeyMonkey Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 This drama...this drama...what can I say about it...At the beginning, I thought about dropping it but I'm so glad a stuck around until the end. The second half of the series had me bawling until my eyes were puffy and red...I ended up binge watching the entire series in 2 days...I love this drama, but I don't think I could handle watching it a second time...I've got no more tears...I've grown so attached to the Hu family, that I can't go through the experience again. Just once is enough for me, but I'll always remember this series. Maybe after a few months or years when I need a good cry, I'll come back to re-watch this series.
