Only one episode on friday and saturday 😟

I believe Netflix translates it as "headliner", as in the headliner of a show, or in this case the bar street.

I loved The White Olive Tree, but tissues are definitely needed throughout the series.

This is the exact medicine that I needed after the trauma that The White Olive Tree left me with. Perfect amount of sweet and fluffy with the perfect pacing.

It's also on Netflix, if you have a Netflix subscription.

Definitely cheaper for a one month subscription of iQiyi than buying the series on Amazon Prime for $30 for the standard definition or $64 for the HD version. Ouch, pricey!

Hoping this rumor turns out to be true 🤞

Yep, pretty much. That two days cost Li Zan life as he knew it.

I'm going to stick with the series ending, too. Less heartbreaking and makes it so I can watch the series multiple times without bawling my eyes out every time.

The quiet life happened in the first two parts of the epilogue, so I think that is part of why we didn't get to see after they moved to the countryside.

Yeah, I don't think we could have handled seeing that epilogue brought to life 😭😭😭😭😭

Happy ending-ish. Novel readers know the true meaning of the very final scene. It is safe to say the series ends with a happy-for-now ending, with the final scene leading the viewer to guess that, at some point, something happend and both Li Zan and Song Ran died and stayed together in the afterlife. The series ending does not address the novel's epilogue ending, but instead ends where the novel ended prior to the epilogue.

You have actually come very close to how the novel's epilogue ended. They moved to the countryside to get away from all the triggers that may trigger Li Zan. They did have a happy ending for 10 years after the got married and had two children. Li Zan committed suicide 10 years after they were married during an episode of PTSD. Song Ran died a few years after Li Zan while working as a war reporter again. She was shot and killed while trying to protect a child. The epilogue is told by their now adult children.
I like that the TV series added what I would consider an afterlife scene that shows that Li Zan and Song Ran remain together, even in death.

The series ending was a lot easier than the novel's epilogue ending, but I still was sobbing through the last three episodes. The series ending ended more or less where the novel ended before the epilogue. I like how the series added what I would consider an afterlife scene where Li Zan and Song Ran remain together, even in death. It added a bittersweet moment to the ending, but ultimately just ended up making me cry harder. I consider the series ending a happy ending, mainly because it didn't include the epilogue ending which takes place 10 years after they are married. Non-novel readers can consider the series ending a Happy for Now type ending. The final scene of them standing in front of the white olive tree can be considered an epilogue of the novel's epilogue.
I absolutely loved this series and I will definitely be watching it again...after I piece my shattered heart back together, of course. 10 out of 10 for me, and I very, very rarely rate anything a 10.

He isn't terminally ill. He has very severe PTSD.

I also plan on watching The First Frost, as well. Thankfully, it starts airing in four days.

Depends on if the drama uses the epilogue as well. If the drama only uses the novel ending and not the epilogue then it is a happy ending. If the drama also goes by the epilogue, which takes place 10 years and more after they get married, then it is a very sad and tragic ending for both Li Zan and Song Ran. Li Zan dies by suicide during a severe episode of PTSD 10 years after they are married. Song Ran goes back to being a war reporter after his death, and a few years later she is shot and killed while trying to protect a child. The epilogue is told by Li Zan and Song Ran's now adult children.
They do have a happy marriage for 10 years, even if they do spend those 10 years battling Li Zan's PTSD, but at least they had those years together and had two children during that time.
The epilogue is a long one, and you don't find out that Li Zan died until the third part of the epilogue, followed a couple pages later by the news that Song Ran also died a few years after Li Zan. I absolutely sobbed as I was reading the epilogue. I was not expecting that ending, but it really sheds light onto the reality that so many suffering from war-related PTSD go through.

Just prepare yourself and have tissues on stand-by.

It looks like there will be an express package released. I saw iQiyi's post for it on iQiyi Malaysia's YouTube Community page. I think after tomorrow's episodes we will all be needing that express package. I am not ready for that ending. When this drama ends, you will find me somewhere rocking back and forth in a corner as I try and piece my shattered heart back together. I need a nice feel good, fluffy drama after this one. Here is to hoping that "The Best Thing" is really released on February 25th or sooner.

The novel has a happy ending unless you read the long epilogue, which takes place 10 years after the novel ends. The epilogue tells the ensuing battle that Li Zan went through and ultimately lost with PTSD throughout their 10 years of marriage. The epilogue is told by Li Zan and Song Ran's now adult children.

Prepare yourself for the ending. By the time this drama finishes, your heart will be shattered into tiny pieces. Buy stock in Kleenex 😭😭😭😭😭🤧🤧🤧🤧
