But this will give you an idea of how off we are in our pronunciations:

Thank you for the great video.

My chinese lessons are paying off. I understand about 30% of Private Galaxy's 2 episodes.

Wow That's impressive !

Thats exciting.

Random but I have been waiting all year to say this 💀😂🤣😎🤭

I totally did not watch 3 hrs of what I thought was a bl , only to see it through to the end & be shook. I don't recommend anyone watch ' The Effect ' 😭💔

I am currently watching 8 airing BLs and 5 come out on Fridays. Help! At least Sammy’s Children’s Day ends this week. (I’m not happy it’s ending but I need one less Friday show.)

Does anyone else get 3/4 through a really good show and then put off watching the rest for awhile? Sometimes I don’t want the show to end, sometimes I don’t want to see the final conflict, sometimes there’s just a lull before the very end. But I get annoyed at myself for not just finishing.

It took me a month to watch the last 4 episodes of high school frenemy (bromance) and right now I’m putting off the last 5 episodes of pursuit of Jade (cdrama.) Also I’ve been rewatching Me and Thee but have been putting off the last episode.

I’m not talking about shows that I put on hold for months or indefinitely, I’m talking about shows I really like. Sometimes I don’t understand myself. Lol.

it happens to me as soon as a series has more than 12 eps. I get easily bored, even when I like the series. So for me the C-dramas are the worst. I watched Pursuit of Jade with 3 breaks because just the thought of the 40 eps made me uneasy. I am now finishing Love between Lines (c-drama, 28 eps) after a two-month break. I loved it and even succeeded in watching 20 eps in a row, but I had to pause.

Same right now with Perfect 10 Liners: I loved the first story and watched 9 eps. Then paused it for 6 months. Restarted a couple of days ago, watched 9 eps and now I'm thinking about putting it on hold again for the last 6 eps, even though I really enjoyed both stories and the series is great.

I really try to avoid having more than 2 series airing on the same day, because I don't like watching different eps of different series one after the other. I am either at the university or at the language school during the day, so I only watch series in the evening, and I hate it when I have 4-5 eps from different series all waiting for me. Regarding Sammy's, here it's a bit different, I am sure I could have enjoyed a few more eps (let say up to 14-16 would have been fine), it's by far my fav this year with Bad Buddy.

I watched and really enjoyed it especially as I talks about an issue that still happens today and glad they never got together as the action he did was unforgivable

I thought it was well done for sure & shows that love can go wrong easily & become very toxic to the point you're no longer the same person , their is realism as they're many out there that have gone through this themselves so I feel it somewhat spreads awareness & reminds us that these things can / do happen. I say I don't recommend as honestly it's crushing especially that ending , it's hard to deal with an open end even more so if it ends in tragedy. basically it's not bad but definitely not for the lighthearted & can be triggering to those with trauma & mental health so you need to go in expecting it to be somewhat graphic , don't be me & go in without further knowledge because honestly it did get to me a little & i'm still trying to shake it off 😅

Unique_rain:

even though To my shore disappointed me as I couldn't even finish the first episode as it was too boring

I hated To my shore from the first to the last ep. Still mad at myself for not dropping it. I think because I was watching it while it aired I finished it, but this one was a total nonsense to me.

jazme:

lol, to my shore was a bit slow but if you get to ep 4 or 5, it will get better

when does it get better? The last 30 minutes were ok-ish.

how long have you been learning Chinese? I'm eying a BA in Chinese (for beginners) here at my university but I'm already so busy and I don't think I can find the time for the 20 hours / week for it. Or I may just stop watching dramas at all! Pretty curious to know how long it took you to reach this level.

Sophie:

I thought Sammy's children's day was over and binged it today, but there's still one episode left :(

Yesssss tomorrow is the D-day, still 14 hours and we get it!
