Chang Ming Deng Zhi Qing Yu An (2025)

WHY AREN'T MORE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THIS DRAMA

. . . . . . . . . . . um . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . so this is a masterpiece and i have genuinely no idea how it's not more popular with dozens of comments underneath. the plot could have EASILY been adapted to a long drama idk if it's a vertical inspired by a long drama but god it is so so good. if it weren't a vertical short cdrama and it had a larger production budget and more fleshing out of the side characters and the male lead's personal emotional turmoil about his mother and father instead of making him a little 2-dimensional in wanting to help the fl as his sole motivation it could be mistaken for a movie. those criticisms i don't usually have for dramas i like that are Much lower quality but i mention it here because they did such a good job i wish it weren't constrained by the limitations of a vertical short lol. like her childhood friend, the friends to found-family to strangers dynamic with two major side characters (i'm trying not spoil), and the intelligent, decisive fl were all so so good that i want more ;-; i'm being so serious right now criticisms and flaws are easier to point out than the good and mentally impactful parts that make the lasting impression on a viewer. the female lead's acting is incredible and had me sobbing audibly in the last 30 minutes (i'm a sucker for dramatic parent-child relationships).

to be clear it's a happy ending it's just a very dynamic plot where the side characters actually have meaning and substance to them so it's like life where you win some you lose some and in this drama, all things considered, the leads came out on top.

i can't believe i stumbled upon this magnificent opaline work of Art because i was going through huang you tian's dramas because i like his face 😭i cannot recommend this enough

watch if you want:
- an incredible plot
- movie-like script
- a badass fl
- a puppy ml
- a loving father of the fl that only ever loved her mother, never remarried, never had more children, never felt the need to have more despite having only 1 daughter, and never blamed his only daughter for not being a son
- quick, decisive revenge
- romance, but it's not integral or the focal point of the plot

there's sexual tension in some scenes but it's not a romance-focused drama where the rules of reality bend around the fl and ml's relationship to make their love more charming to the viewer by using tropes.
