Nanjing Love Story (2017)

Alternate title: Ballad of Yuhui

Slowmoving plot about Lin Yuhui and her extended family! It could easily have been related in 30 episodes. Very good production values in the directing, editing, acting, writing, music composition, costume design and set design departments. Hair and makeup were average. The open credits are virtually invisible which is a good sign, and flashbacks are used in the final episode only, which is also good filmmaking.

The underdog villain ML, Gao Jinbang, seemed to have too much screen time. Yuhui might be one of the saddest FL drama characters. She broke a smile occasionally. The senior actors did a good job.

Footnote: For a strange reason, the MDL cast list, as well as Dramawiki and IMDB are bare bones, missing about a dozen or more supporting actor credits.
