Love Like the Galaxy Surprises Viewers with Finale on August 18th Dropping the Last 11 Episodes in a Row

Oh god, my little Stars and Moon heart may not be ready for this and definitely not ready to say goodbye so unexpectedly. On August 17th the production of C-drama Love Like the Galaxy (part 1: The Stars Are Brilliant, part 2: The Moon Rises Over the Ocean) did a mic drop and announced that the big finale of the drama will be the next day on August 18th. Right now it’s aired up to episode 46 and based on the 6-episode per week release I thought the finale week will be in two weeks with the total episode count of 57. But it appears the post-production has caught up and the finale batch of episodes will be released on Thursday the 18th for paying viewers of Tencent Video (Tengxun). The drama also released the newest poster above and just staring at Wu Lei and Zhao Lu Si makes me happily zoned out in bliss.

No drama in recent memory has combined angtsy youthful love with intelligently plotted palace intrigue plus a side of restrained cultural precision for the times. And let’s not forget all the LOL comedic moments, from Shao Shang’s fight with Wang Ling, her sending the capital city bitches breaking a bridge into the water, uncouth Cheng Grandma as the resident clown, Ling Bu Yi’s two right hand men and their myriad commentary, Wendy’s OTP shipping, and the most recent mandarin duck wing shoulder armor which is the gift that keeps on giving as a joke that goes from one person to another and will likely keep our General company as he avenges his entire Huo family slaying and hies off to the border for a 5 year brood fest before coming back and getting his girl yet again. Join me for the ending marathon and then let’s have a gab fest after!

  • Omg really?! What a treat! Let’s see if I can manage to finish all remaining 11 episodes tomorrow after work! 😅

    • And both of them get so offended by it, LOL! Not just LBY our SS also basically cut off nice uncle General Cue when he called it chicken wings (and made the chicken wing gesture) while telling her she needs more dowry (and he'll add to it) because she doesn't have any womanly skills commensurate with Princess Yu Chang.

  • I am not ready to say goodbye either. This is what quality drama should be. If most of China's script were this tight, their directing was this perfect and their leads were this amazing with acting and chemistry, their dramas would be unrivalled in Asia. Zhao Lusi went from rising star to STAR with this drama. her chemistry with Wu Lei gives me real love vibes. It is truly an amazing drama. Cudos to the Love like the Galaxy team.

    • I realized great dramas comes when all the stars align (casting, script, directing) and we can only hope to encounter it when it arrives. It's rare but it happens is what gives me hope when most dramas in life are so mediocre to bad, to keep having faith and one day it's rewarded.

      • You are right! I loved seeing the behind the scenes with the director. I loved it! I have been non-stop watching The Long Ballad waiting for Love like the Galaxy.

      • Watch the express episodes until 56 final. It would have beeb sweet if the final scene is their weddinh though

    • me too! After long day of work my go to stress reliever is this drama. I would say the best drama I've seen this year. Wulei and Lusi and the other cast did an awesome job.

  • I will have a heart attack if I can't get the fast track to work. Just give me all the CP cuteness after minimal angst!

    This is my drama of 2022. I don't even remember how I fell down this rabbit hole but I loved all the slow burn, the initial awkwardness of the couple and them learning to be a couple. I love that our CP are both flawed characters but maybe thats just exactly what they both need.

    Please please please I hope the final few episodes do the whole series justice. Don't let me down now!

  • Definitely best cdrama ancient drama for 2022. Best scripts, great chemistry between WL and ZLS.
    Very sad this drama ending tonight, I’ve been looking forward every weeks to continue.
    Normally I can’t stand long drama but feel this drama not long enough. Let hope they can be in modern drama.
    Ms Koala, hopefully you can give us final thoughts tomorrow. Thank you

  • Hoping for part 3 its gonna be a travel from ancient to modern like twilight they have 4 seasons and everybody are addicted it ..like LBY and niao niao im addiceed to it and nobody can touch our TV for thier time slot ..

  • Just a girl standing in front of a guy, saying I love you.
    Just a newebie Cdrama fan happening upon greatness.
    Happy to share this drama with those who love it as much as I do.

  • I have so much work today and I want to watch it T.T

    Aaah I am so glad they released all the heartbreaking episode all at once. I thought I can handle separation but I can't and I absolutely need the reassurance that I've got the episode ready
