Basically, NOTHING in the drama actually happens in The Pillow Book (although the drama did borrow some ideas and scenes). DH properly meets FJ at YH/BQ’s wedding at the beginning of the book. DH chases FJ rather than pushing her away. FJ doesn’t pester him like she did in the drama. Even the “mortal world” sequence in the first book where FJ goes to meet DH’s mortal incarnation (which was somewhat portayed in the drama) is given a MASSIVE twist when you realise what *really* happened from DH/FJ’s point of view, rather than BH’s. Like you, after the first book, I thought I wouldn’t be interested in DH/FJ’s story. How VERY WRONG i was because i’m now sooo obsessed with them!!! <3 The pestering made me dislike their relationship in the first show. Were YH/BQ in the second book? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drama chose to emphasize Mo Yuan’s affections for BQ, but the book actually is not clear as to what he really feels towards BQ, and rather hints of his relationship with Shao wan. YH/BQ are in the second book. You start off with their wedding. They are mostly background characters but Rice Dumpling is FJ’s little sidekick and instigates a lot of her awkward/funny/embarrassing moments with DH. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 When you really love drama's, you live for stories such as this... A fantasy that becomes reality within your heart... @angelangie I not only like C-drama I love it and in 2017 there were more than a few that were really good. But if I had been asked what drama from anywhere would you pick for drama of the year. This one would have been it! For so many reasons even knowing that each person has their own for loving this story. Yet to me it's not just the beauty that surrounded these characters which was breath taking. But the characters that were brought to life by these talented actors. Who placed themselves within the skin of each of their personalities and allowed the writers words to become their reality and ours... I won't ever forget this OTP's love story that was full of hardships and struggles but also passion and tenderness. Courage and resolve to hold onto what is within their hearts no matter what they must face. Through not only ones lifetime but beyond even that. It was so unique and moving from your eyes to your heart. Your heart to your soul that it lingers and I believe will be remembered like the sweetness of honey and will stay with you for even your lifetime as well... No matter the language this story that is considered a fantasy was able to show love in more than one way. Allows you to see and absorb it's ideas. Yes even reflect on it's lessons that are true not only about a love that can last forever but in never giving up hope no matter what the sacrifice might be. They took a story full of fantasy and allowed us to see the reality within it... Which reminds me of another great story teller Walt Disney and a song I learned as a child. " A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes" there are stories that like love stay with you forever... usafarmgirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll definitely read the pillow book, after all I've heard many great reviews about it. DJ and FJ may not be my favourite couple out there, but I definitely thought they had a lot of potential to become one. Unfortunately the drama didn't explore it all I guess, and I ended up fast forwarding through their scenes.sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Sometimes this drama calls out to you and you stop everything to just sit and watch those favorite parts that were to beautiful to forget... It's able to turn a black & white kind of day into one full of amazing color... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 @angelangie I think @kokodus & I are really in a drama slump of sort... I am rewatching this drama right now and mostly the OTP moments but dang they still really move my heart and as much as I love a few others this one is the one I keep coming back to when I just need my heart lifted and I know you both know what I mean!!!! Just this one BTS example is so inspiring to watch in knowing just how these two actors gave more than 100% of themselves. I truly believe that's why this drama stands out and is without a doubt one of the best!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kokodus Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 So true @USAFarmgirl @angelangie Words can't describe how much I love this show. It was a magical fantasy world that lured me in and made me feel giddy. I wish I can watch it for the first time again. Haha. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrbrown Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I’m sooo late in this game, but I have to put out my two cents. For a long time I wasn’t really into cdramas (mainly because of the female character). But after watching this drama, this has changed my thinking. Wow! What a story. Great acting! Loved it! I’m so happy that they will be giving us a sequel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s because there were 2 other people who co-translated Pillow Book with Hamster so it was done really well! Pillow Book is my favourite! <3 I don’t know what people are comparing Hamster’s translation of 10MPB to. But i have both Hamster’s and To The Sky Kingdom and there’s no comparison as to the readability. Hamster’s one skips all the Mount Kunlun chapters and has spelling and grammatical mistakes in every sentence. The ONLY thing you should read from Hamster’s is Ye Hua’s Epilogue, which is missing from To The Sky Kingdom. I AM ABSOLUTELY DYING FOR THE PILLOW BOOK DRAMAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
