Role Reversal (RR) Drama Lovers Club

Bound by Sin - Episode 3 

The only spoilers in these GIFs are FL's gorgeous outfits and her being a literal queen. :D

• omg I focused on the lyrics in the opening song like one of you had already mentioned and they don't really make sense for the drama. like I'm sorry but "the longing catches me off guard"? our FL? off guard? no, just no. otherwise the song is really pretty! but yeah. 
• wait, why did she get mad at her boytoy? She specifically picked him and pushed him into the room and then told him to leave? Like I understand that she was angry when he didn't listen to her but before?? What happened?
• The timeline is a bit confusing now. There's a lot of flashbacks sprinkled between the main events so I'm getting lost. Like this one with the ML smoking outside (I TOLD y'all that he knows how to use a lighter! :D) and then the butler Fu comes to him and gives him advice. When exactly did this happen?
• FL once again slays in her beautiful outfit for a ball. It has a butterfly on it too. And I really like the secretary's dress as well. Long and dramatic.
• I love how the Xu girl didn't even notice her bodyguard disappearing. xD
• Wait why is the ML giving the FL money? Is he already paying her back? Is his sister okay and out of the hospital now? I'm confused T.T
• HELLO? THE SCENE IN THE CAR WITH THE FL GIVING HIM THE NOTE? I'M ON MY KNEES. THAT WAS SO GOOD!!
  • gif can be found here :)
• FL bathing 😍 I'm looking respectfully
• I love how she's already smitten with the ML and wants to control him
• what did the fiancé bring? Is that a bouquet of flowers? I'm sorry but it's so ugly looking, why is it wrapped like that?😭
• Ah, the qipao the FL is wearing in the flashback scene looks nice! 
• "I think lands suit me more than jewellery." You go, girl, tell him. 
• I feel like I was a lot critical about this episode but I still enjoyed it a lot!! 
• I swear I'll throw in some ML gifs in next time too, can't neglect the babygirl too much :3

• "it was shockingly insensitive and downright humiliating" - 100% agree. Her treatment of him is absolutely diabolical. Like his sister is undergoing surgery, bro is worried sick, have at least some dignity not to behave like a pig... in public at that too... yikes bro.
• "Poor Fu Cheng..." - IKKKK, it was so hard to watch, broooo- Can't wait for our FL to act on that rage
• "as I envision our fierce heroine crushing her like the insignificant insect she is" - 🤣🤣🤣🤣
• "She can't help but admire that tenacity" - Absolutely! Nothing more intriguing than a challenge 
• "...destined to be a janitor for all the clueless men around her" - This is hilarious and also very true xD
• "The contrast" - Ohhhhhhh, I hadn't noticed it like that but you're sooo right! Love the GIF too!
• "...she’s got a treasure trove of fun ideas..." - Oh, we all know this interest is gonna cost something other than money
• "...then I will strip it from you" - Figuratively... and literally
• "I can't ignore the unease it brings me" - Not just you- It's the red-flag type of dynamic that is always kinda unsettling even if enjoyable in a fictional setting T_T
• "What in the world?" - There's beauty in the broken, is there not? But yeah, those look painful fr
• "They can't censor our imagination!" - EXACTLY!! Nor do they want to, I'm sure xD 
• "and can't even hide it." - I literally can't, he's so cute T_T Amidst the power play disaster that that scene was, this was like a little band aid telling people "it's fine, he likes it" which I guess is better than it not being there? 
• "Why did he hide?" - No clue- they were also both decent so it would've just been business talk anyway- I don't get it 
• "but not OK with being comfortable in her power over men" - Sounds about right
  

Your metaphors and word play are absolutely peak XD I had such a good laugh. Also very insightful commentary, I found myself struggling with what to even reply 'cause you kinda already said everything there was to say ^^

I was today years old when I realised I can actually change the title of the thread, meaning I could theoretically change the name of the club. Do y'all think it would be better to go with the full name rather than the initials/abbreviation? Or do a both situation: Role Reversal (RR) Drama Lovers Club? 

Yes, if it is possible. It is always better than Restricted Rated drama lover LOLOL

Yes i love the suggestion, bestiiiiiiiiiiie!!! 

Any recommendation for stories where she supports him financially? Whether it's breadwinner-wife househusband, sugar dating, or she simply enjoys spoiling him with gifts? 

I only know Fake Love and in Ano Toki Kiss Shite Okeba I know there's a scene where she takes him shopping

Are you feeling better?

The initial days of recovery after a fall can be quite exhausting, but I managed to get a nice, long rest today, took the day off, which was just what I needed! :) Thank you for asking <3

I like Role Reversal Drama Lovers Club a little more, but that's just my dyslexia, not liking all of the R's, LOL, whatever the members decide on.

Oh, I was definitely feeling a little extra when I jotted down those notes, like, way more than usual, lol. I just can’t help but sprinkle in some sass!

Thank you for taking the time to read my lengthy post. It was a big one.!

I've just found this club.

I love Noona romance dramas, which pretty much always involve role reversal, but I will be looking for more RR dramas now. I've just watched Love Scout and I loved it.
