I know Duolingo isn't always the best thing to study/practice with but this is the first time I've wondered if a sentence would actually be said that way. Are they trying to ask whether the transportation to "come here" is convenient? It feels like there are words missing and just sounds awkward to me, or am I misinterpreting the sentence and the role of 来 in it?

The second sentence is even more confusing. What is 我们 doing there? And why is the answer phrased using 的?

I did answer both correctly according to Duolingo just really confused about the sentence structure/grammar here

I can't believe I waited this long to start this drama! Snagged Youku vip for only $3.59 right now, time to binge, but I had to rave about this opening first 😳

The imagery! I always get excited when I see Go in a drama because I started playing long before I ever watched a Cdrama. Bonus points if the board layout actually portrays a realistic game.

This one for the most part doesn't, but it doesn't feel off because the symbolism is obvious yet well done. Two sides facing off with the whole of Chang'an as the game board. Blood flowing through the grooves of the board, transitioning to the streets of the city, flooding the city. And a mastermind in the shadows, looking down at the board and controlling everything.

The music ups the ante, creating suspense and thrill. I have a thing for pure musical intros, no words, just the perfect composition carrying all the emotion.

And the bits of likely significant items sprinkled throughout! The red umbrella. The code wheel? Or some kind of lock? Don't know yet but what I do know is this is hands down the BEST drama intro I have seen in a long time, Chinese or otherwise.

I've watched the first two episodes already and the drama is more than living up to my expectations. So many twists in just these first two episodes. I was screaming (below a whisper of course, it was 2am 🫢) at the end of the second episode. And of course Cheng Yi portrays his character so immersively and so impressively.

I'm absolutely loving the entire aesthetic of this drama. White and black and red are the prominent colors, just like the blood-soaked go board of the intro.

And now, it's 3:30am but I am so sorely tempted to go watch episode 3. If I disappear for the next few days, y'all know where I am >.>
