The Story of Hua Zhi (2024)

Protagonista feminina incrível

Acho que nunca vi uma protagonista tão generosa, bondosa e determinada. Simplesmente carregou o drama nas costas, me fez ficar ansiosa para que ela alcança-se seus objetivos todas as vezes que traçava um plano. Espetacular, simplesmente sem defeitos, eu a amei do início ao fim. Muito resiliente , e uma jovem de bom coração, sempre disposta a a ajudar a quem precisa. Para além disso, uma líder nata. Incrível como ela assumiu sua família tão jovem e foi capaz de tirá-las da miséria em que foram largadas.

O protagonista, para além de lindo, me irritou um pouco; se não fosse seu rostinho bonito, eu com certeza iria o detestar. Em alguns momentos eu o odiei, pois ele era um fantoche do imperador, o que foi um fator crucialmente conflitante para que ele e a protagonista ficassem juntos. Sei que não havia muito o que ele fazer, mas em diversos momentos onde o imperador deveria ter sido morto ele atrapalhou os planos. A Zhi também se intrometeu algumas vezes, mas eu relevo para ela.

Os papéis secundários foram maravilhosos, as servas (e depois não servas) da Zhi eram incríveis, me apaixonei por cada uma delas. Passei raiva com algumas tias, e com a mãe de Zhi, mas durante o desenrolar elas se mostraram uma família incrível e acolhedora. Me entristeci muito na morte da avó de Zhi, chorei muito quando a Imperatriz Viúva compareceu ao seu funeral. Foi de cortar o coração. Me cortou também o coração a morte da Rong, apenas uma jovem cheia de vida, esperando um neném, e encontrou um destino trágico. Eu culpo o marido dela por ter a levado para longe da família e a inserido em sua família suja, mesmo que ele soubesse de tudo que acontecia e de como seu pai era um crápula.

Não sei se o casal principal teve muito química, embora achasse os momentos deles fofos, acho que o drama tinha como foco principal a Zhi e sua crise familiar, o que eu amei, nada melhor do que ver mulheres se apoiando e ganhando suas vidas sozinhas. Foi realmente incrível. O assistente do nosso protagonista também me deixou com uma leve quedinha por ele, o achei fofo. Achei muitas pessoas fofas hahaha o Sr Sheng também, gostei muito dele e com certeza irei atrás de trabalhos do ator. No mais, para mim, é um 10. A ost é INCRÍVEL, que abertura linda, músicas maravilhosas. Daqui uns anos, espero rever. Assisti com a minha mamãe, e ambas amamos muito o drama. Daqui uns anos, quando reassistir, lembrarei dela.

Blossoms in Adversity: A Triumph of Female Empowerment and Drama

I am so glad I didn’t skip watching Blossoms in Adversity—it’s truly one of the best dramas to air in 2024. The star of the show is our female lead, Hua Zhi (played by Zhang JingYi), who embodies female empowerment. In times of need, she stepped up and took on the role of head of the family, managing to make a living despite being faced with a dead end. Hua Zhi led her family’s prosperity and survival, making a significant impact.

The side characters also played notable roles. All of Hua Zhi’s family members contributed to restoring the Hua family’s reputation through hard work and dedication, overcoming their adversaries. The main couple, Hua Zhi and Gu YanXi, had a strong relationship based on mutual trust and belief in one another, despite the obstacles between them.

The supporting cast, including Caesar Wu (Shen Qi), Lu YuXiao (Shao Yao), and Bian Cheng (Shen Huan), was memorable. I felt Caesar Wu should have had more screen time, but the second couple was sweet, and I liked how they ended up. I also appreciate the OSTs, especially the powerful opening song, which represents the drama well.

At times, I did feel like Hua Zhi was being very unreasonable, especially considering her family’s situation and the temperament of the emperor, which she is aware of. I feel like she did bring some of the misfortune onto her family by not being able to keep her mouth shut in the name of 'justice'.

The drama never dragged, and the arcs were well-planned and spaced out. The ending wasn’t rushed, and I am very satisfied with it. Overall, this was a great drama, and I definitely recommend watching it. I rate it 9/10.

this is wht i think after watching the drama

ok so the drama overall is good
the best thing is that there is no female character who is envious of the FL and no stupid kinda drama
and the cutest thing is the side character couples in the drama
FL and ML character writing and development is pretty good
the reason i rated the story 8.5 is cuz of its abrupt ending
also due to the lack of a main villain, the story feels kinda different
but i love the development of all the members of her family
overall this is a nice light-hearted drama to watch
even if it isn't that involving it will surely keep engaging

inspirador.

esse drama retrata e aborda assuntos importantes como o machismo na sociedade em acreditar que é preciso ter um homem da casa para poder 'cuidar' das coisas, quando nós, mulheres, também podemos. uma coisa que eu achei interessante é refletir que esse preconceito não existiu durante somente as dinastias e o tempo antigo, como também durante a lei de filho único na china onde os pais se livraram/evitavam ter filhas mulheres porque segundo a tradição somente um filho homem iria cuidar da família e administrar o futuro da linhagem; terem abordado um assunto como esse de forma madura e sem romantizar ou fazer que no final a protagonista feminina seja dependente do protagonista masculino e excluir toda a história da protagonista para fazer o casal, isso me deixou mais animada ainda para continuar assistindo.

a protagonista é forte e determinada, não se faz de tola e sempre tenta confiar em si mesma, no começo eu tinha um pouco de raiva das mulheres das famílias, mas com o tempo enquanto assistia vi o quanto elas evoluíram e se tornaram fortes e independentes, elas implicam com a personagem principal no começo por terem enraizadas com o pensamento machista, mas depois juntas elas se começam a confiar a si mesma e umas nas outras, mesmo com as brigas, elas sempre estariam ao lado de sua família. elas foram abandonadas, mas juntas se continuaram e começaram tudo do zero, não abaixaram suas cabeças e mesmo com a zombaria da sociedade, elas não desistiram um segundo.

confesso que eu não foquei muito no casal, mesmo que tenha vários momentos e seja o principal do drama, eu achei mais interessante a singularidade e temas abordados, mas o casal é muito fofo! eu gosto do fato que o protagonista masculino mesmo que no começo minta para a protagonista, sempre confia nela e não tenta 'mandar' nela.

a protagonista feminina e todas as mulheres desse drama foram incríveis e as principais do drama em si para mim.

Uno de mis cdrama históricos preferidos del 2024

Me ha encantado! De esos cdramas que te vician y que harías maratón si pudieras, se me han pasado volando los 40 capítulos. La pareja principal muy bonita, con una historia de amor fuerte, unidos siempre contra las adversidades. Las historias secundarias me han interesado todas!!! Súper interesantes y emotivas, con secundarios de lujo y grandes interpretaciones!! Las mujeres de la familia Hua maravillosas!!! La hermana del protagonista suprema y su historia de amor entrañable y emocionante. Las escenas de acción espectaculares! He llorado muchas veces con esta historia, cada capítulo ha sido muy interesante y para nada tedioso! Una historia de superación, de unión familiar, de amor! Muy recomendable!

Touching Story With Sweet Romance

Friends, this is easily the most bingeable watch this year. I could not stop pressing play and impatiently waited for episodes once I caught up with the live release schedule. Not only was the story interesting, it was incredibly touching the way this family came together to solve their issues. The story revolves around the ladies of this family - both the family members and their servants. I really enjoyed the intricacies of these various relationships. Their shifting dynamics created genuine character growth for many of the women. There are lots of #ladiessupportingladies as well as #ladiesLEARNINGtosupportladies in this drama, which felt really refreshing.

The main couple had a sweet and slow romance built over the course of the story. A bit more passion from them would have been nice, but I understand these dramas typically are on the tamer side. They did have some great hugs! The main leads did a good job portraying the characters and had decent chemstry together. I'm not sure their performance was as memorable as the overall story, but I will probably remember them fondly. I wonder how I would have felt about their romance with different actors in the roles. Overall, a great and touching story paired with a sweet and steady romance made this one of my favorites this year (so far).

Peak Drama

Drama terbagus 2024 sampai saat ini, cocok bgt buat org yg suka dengan FL yang pinter, dewasa, mandiri. Pokoknya keren dah buat huazhi. Apalagi chemistry ml sama fl nya bagus, walaupun screen timenya kurang banyak, tapi setiap ada interaksi dari mereka selalu bikin senyam senyum sendiri.
Gara gara nonton ni drama jadi makin suka sama drama dengan FL yang pinter dan dewasa.

Yahh walaupun cgi di ending scenenya aga sedikit cringe, tapi secara keseluruhan drama ini punya plot yg mulus dari episode awal sampai akhir. Jadinya bikin penonton slalu penasaran sampe ga tahan buat nunggu episode selanjutnya.

花芷从小与祖父游历四方，有勇有智。长大后一直活在自己的理想世界里的她，直到有一天花家遭满门抄家，家中男丁被流放北边，才被迫扛起家里重担，照顾皇都里留下来的妇孺。（可能因为都是被迫接受现实的理想主义者，特别能与女主角共情哈哈哈）
而且我对剧情特别满意的一点就是感情线不拖沓，男女主双商在线，都是用智慧在解决事情的?
除了前面流放那边有点硬，后面皇帝死了那一边，感觉很仓促的要收官，突然逼花家来个钱财捐募和水堤监工，莫名来了个昭国人，然后皇帝死了，太后携带新任皇帝登基，最后方才赦免了花家人（好像也有点…….哈哈哈哈哈哈
就赢在ost都蛮好听的，男女主也好有cp感了哈哈哈哈哈哈

Good Series but Male Lead Fell Flat

This is a good series, I enjoyed it. A story of injustice from those in power, family relationships, personal growth, redemption, and karma. My main complaint is that the male lead fell flat. His acting was bland and stiff which impacts the chemistry w/ the female lead.

The Good:
- FL did an amazing job. This is the 3rd series I've seen this actress in, and she gets better and better with each role. She's adorable, charismatic, and played this part so well. Fearless, clever, loyal, and righteous but without being over the top saint-like. It's refreshing to see such a strong well-rounded female character.
- The relationship between the main couple was refreshingly open & honest with mutual respect and understanding. No illogical, sociopathic love triangle where people try to break up the couple w/ vicious jealousy and manipulation (except for the Emperor, but that was for a whole different reason).
- The emperor - that actor is type-casted for the villain roles. He nailed it with this role. He kept me guessing: are all his sinister moves for the greater good, and did he genuinely feel love & devotion for his family or was everyone expendable to maintain devout obedience to him?
- Supporting cast was really good as well. Even 2nd, 3rd, 4th supporting characters had natural & believable character development. They way the women and children fell from grace, went through hardships and evolved was really well written and acted. There wasn't anyone who was particularly annoying. Except for the annoying paternal aunt who caused the Grandmother's death - but justice prevailed there.
- Pacing was good, not draggy. I actually did not skip much like I typically do.

The Bad:
- ML fell flat. This is the first time I've seen this actor in a series. His acting was stiff and did not evoke much emotion for me. It wasn't just him playing the typical stoic, heroic tough guy act either - his acting was just bland. His facial expressions were limited to just serious or a wide-eyed deer in headlights. And his wig was distracting - they made his hairline so low that his forehead looked tiny. A role like this would have been better suited for an actor like Leo Wu (Love Like the Galaxy) or Dylan Wang (Love Between Fairy & Devil).
- Lead couple chemistry was just ok. Wasn't terrible but wasn't great either. This type of storyline requires major chemistry.
- The music could've been a lot better for this type of series. It's not memorable at all, and the song that kept playing was children singing like a nursery rhyme just lowered the quality of the OST.

Overall this is potentially a re-watch if I'm really bored w/ nothing else to watch.
