Can't lie the Thai version did actually kind of get me emotionally invested but this whole "falling in love with your bully" thing is unacceptable to me no matter what lol...Like BOF Thailand was better but it's still the best to leave this story in 2000s and never look back at it again

oh God shippers are parasites fr they need to leave both of these poor people alone and move ON

It's shocking to me that people who like any Boys over flops adaptation exist in TWENTY TWENTY TWO...Like the garbage plot aside, I thought we collectively agreed that was a very problematic story that had a really negative cultural impact and should've never existed in first place, LET ALONE 918282 REMAKES LOL...Idrc ppl can like whatever they want to but straight into the flames of hellfire the ones who still like BOF adaptations shall go

No you're right YOU HAD TO SAY IT!!! Calling Ariel selfish and spoiled is victim blaming

Right when it started airing and because I like Esther a LOT and the visuals in the trailers and teasers GOT ME

I'm so glad we as a CLJ fans society grew to a point were everybody defends XLH with either just b*tch slapping people who trash talk her or writing great long essays with critical analysis to prove how amazing of a character she is and how she needs to be protected AT ALL COSTS lmao

netflix buying CLJ to save themselves from the humiliation of those awful shows and movies they've produced in the past couple of months! we love to see that!!!

Convinced she comes from a magical land fr

it's always ppl with men in their pfp y'all should never speak on any woman ew

OMFG BOTH OF MY SISTERS ARE IN THIS I'M SCREAMING

If I was the writer, I would write an ending in which XLH's reincarnated version after her d3ath loses her memory, falls in love with Chidi after meeting her in her dreams and they get married. Then Jieli rejects SQ, he shares his pain with RH who has just been rejected by Chidi, they get married and have half dragon kids. Xunfeng k!lls DFQC to take the throne, DFQC goes through trials and becomes a mortal, CH sacrifices himself for his "friend", jumps into memory loss river, becomes a mortal and these two realize they're in love in mortal realm, kiss and open some sculpture and painting shop or whatever together. Jieli and Danyin find out they're sisters, plot a rebellion, k!ll Xunfeng and that wicked brother of CH, they unite Cangyan sea and Fairy realm, JL rules CY sea and DY the fairy realm. AND THEY ALL LIVED HAPPILY EVERY AFTER!

copypasta potential

(A bit out of topic) I personally love good tragic endings cause they're cathartic and memorable but 90% of these dramas CAN'T do it properly. The entire idea that shaped 2521 came from a song about love not lasting forever and all and the writer basically knew she wanted a breakup in the end the moment she started writing it but failed to wrap it up the way it was supposed to. Writing good sad endings is really hard and tbh you can't just slap a sad ending in there and go with it lmao...The red sleeve cuff was the only drama that did an actually good and perfectly wrapped up sad ending. The climax and the overall world the characters lived in started breaking apart gradually and got totally destroyed in the end. Everything being cutsy, sweet, lovely and then BOOM! SE! is a really bad way to write a story lol...I don't think this one will have that, it's not even that angsty and heavy compared to other dramas of the same genre out there.

Watching the Take changed my perspective about female portrayal in media so much, in a really good way...But it's also bad for your blood pressure cause you start noticing how sexist the entertainment industry and the people following it are and that has you getting mad all the time lmao

Yeah Douban is the one and only site that never lies to you lol...*cough Douban/MDL ratio's do also never lie*

Those videos are sooooo good

Female characters ALWAYS have to "trust" everyone, understand everyone, keep it cool with everyone's bs, think about the priorities of everyone and their mothers before theirs, instantly figure out the "truth" when they're caught in the worst situation possible and be superwomen with skyrocketing IQ and superpowers who are saints but not Mary sue's at the same time and do everything perfectly to not annoy the fragile nerves of dear audiences for some minutes. lmao

If she turns her back on him over HER "priorities" later, I better NOT see you commenting about how heartless and stupid she is.

Lmfaooooo....the freaking man she wants to god damn MARRY in two days suddenly locks her up, destroys her garden, tells her he hates her and wants to k!ll her and starts acting strange as hell over night, she doesn't even have the right to panic and get anxious????? She knows why this and that blah blah but fvcking please give her at least a couple days to sort her thoughs out and THINK????
I am seriously in awe of how in every single drama female characters are always demanded to be "understanding" of men...she has done EVERYTHING not just for him, but for the peace of her hometown and other people so far. nah she ain't stupid and she has not turned dumb after falling in love, she's just under so much freaking pressure rn, why do YOU not try to understand her????? It's always "why is SHE so selfish" in every fvcking show...sick and tired of this bs...I don't care UNTILL y'all start bringing the ugly double standards to the table, this kind of a thing makes me sooo mad...And if i say this is misogyny everyone tells me I'm overthinking lol
