Despite that the leads are happily together in episode four even though there are still twelve episodes to go, which probably means I'm going to get punched in the gut by this show before it ends, I'm just going to bask in all the things that make me happy about A Winter Sun Wakes the Wind in Spring Hills' Dream so far.
The after-credits scenes feel like they are a whole story within themselves yet they are only one minute long! I don't understand what magic is stored in them, but it's so satisfying to hear that lovely ending music just to be served another treat.
Just like with the previous work, the YouTube channel is giving us 'in-between' scenes, like the two brothers discussing Changyang's impulsive decision to go with Qingtian to the mountains.
Or Changyang putting on Qinglang's pajamas.
And the tent scene (even though they were supposed to refrain from sex during the festival or else ~bad luck~).
Qinglang and Changyang are sooooo casually intimate with each other.
I love that I'm a bit confused and trust no one, not even Changyang because how did Shi Yuhao know about the secret signal for the livestream that Qinglang was doing for Changyang? How does he know where Qinglang is at all? Could Qingtian possibly be betraying his brother?!
The teacher did say Shi Yuhao told her he had checked with Qingtian about calling into the livestream, and he didn't argue that, so . . . NO! I refuse to entertain the idea that he would lie to his brother when their relationship is so fun.
I was also confused because at first, I thought the other couple were Qinglang and Shi Yuhao in the past since they seem to share a lot of similarities.
They are both at the start of their careers, but one seems to be strategically trying to make a CP happen, so he can gain popularity while the other is trying not to fall for him.
But, maybe this time around, both will be genuine with their feelings.
There is something happening about past lives.
Qinglang saw his past life while meditating and he beautifully said, "I don't think I loved you this much in my past life. Since it wasn't enough, I have to make it all up to you in this life." Plus, the book the teacher spoke about dealt with lovers who realized the value of their love once they were separated, never to see each other again.
I'm pleased to see Hu Yi Chen is still as beautiful as ever and continues to light up the screen just like he did in Secrets Happened on the Litchi Island.
I also want all of his sweaters.
However, much like before, the visuals are the real star here.
Like . . . (I'm talking about the man and the scenery)
And it's all meaningful like this moment, when the fire picked up as they were intricately sharing the wine.
But there is minimal dialogue, so I'm allowed to just go with the story and sit in every scene, like when Changyang refused to kiss Qinglang, it was clear without words that the reason was because Qinglang was drunk, not because he was a man.
Or when Changyang kept throwing things so Qinglang would know the way home even though he was upset.
And when there is dialogue, it's direct.
Yet also layered just like when these two were fighting without fighting.
So, basically, I like everything about the show so far even though I know the honeymoon can't last forever.
But I need more of the assistant who is so over having to babysit the two children instead of being allowed to spoil his baby boy.
