@Juniko I Know right? MARS is just perfect.. Totally underrated.. Its the kind of drama that you keep thinking about even after having completed it.. Great soundtrack and amazing acting on both the actors behalf.. Taiwanese dramas, No Chinese in general are sadly greatly underrated.. but I hope MARS perhaps will open the eyes of some more people. This drama has it all.. <3 It is one of a kind..

One of the best OST in my opinion. Video is kind of spoilery.

I plan on watching this drama eventually (:

@Juniko
Kinda, I started reading it at some point, But eventually it just faded off.. I read it longer into the story, However things just got in the way.
And like you said yourself, Ling isn't really as cute in the manga as Vic Zhou's Ling is..
Gosh, I feel the vic-twins are too adorable <3

This Illness in incurable.. Help me <3
The drama is just too good, Doubtlessly my alltime fave Taiwanese Drama <3
