Been so focused on Princess Agents that I forgot The Advisors’ Alliance aired already!! Aired yesterday and so far 6 episodes are out already. Who’s watching it? How is it so far? I think I’m gonna try to catch it when there’s time. Unfortunately, I don’t think Viki nor Dramafever is subbing it. Will update if there are more news on the sub.

I’ve watched a few episodes and it’s been quite interesting to see the Three Kingdoms story from a different perspective (focusing on those who are traditionally portrayed as the villains). Ep 2 was a highlight because of Cao Cao – such a tense scene with strong actiing.

I’ve heard many good things about this drama already. Too bad it’s not subbed (yet, I hope).

11 months of filming is an insane amount of time but this certainly looks epic.
Lin Tao’s character looks awesome even though I can’t understand what she is saying lol! I love how she tends to play strong characters. Hope it gets subbed.

That looks so damn epic! This one seems to fly under the radar for a lot of people, but this is also probably going to be the dark horse of the year. Can’t wait!
