Every little fight of Jiang family was public in the neighbourhood but them leaving the house nobody knew ? They work in the same company isn't it ? It did not become topic of discussion in their work place? Even if we say elders kept it a secret everyday they walk around in the same road so she did not come to know about it? It is unbelievable!! People might come at me for all the complains but I am sorry I can't help it. Episode 15 has a lot of loop holes IMO which I want to ignore and enjoy but it becomes glaringly evident then can't help but rant about it.

Wait, episode 15 is quite confusing.
First QYY says JQX has stopped responding to Du Shang and then FL also says how he stopped responding to everyone slowly and about getting overwhelmed. And immedately next scene she talks aobut how JQX has become chatterbox and talks a lot and also says to Mr Cao that JQX helps his son. Either something is lost in translation or the timeline is again off.
I mean we can deduce that he was in touch with all of them, was talking a lot and then stopped but the whole scene flow is reverse IMO

There is one scene that stood out for me that sorta gives romantic undertone when they were kids . Yingtao reminisces him holding her hand when he saved her by touching her own hand so I see your point .( This kind of scenes are very common in Indian dramas so I know)
Having said that considering how they were so close to each other for two years her writing letter for 5 years i think is not obsession considering she did not know he was not reading it. Her friends who moved to his school before her gave her impression that he was busy to write back. . I think those episodes were quite choppy so the whole timeline seems confusing
As to why she was fixated to him was because their relationship equation was like that’s. She was the extrovert but extremely emotionally available person. You can see with that scene with uncle wang too. She is the sort of person who would try their best to maintain any relationship. Here it is extra special with ML

Oh good to hear I am not the only one. I had such high expectations for that drama and was such a disappointment for me :(

I do not care about heat index and such too. (I don't even know what that means :D) . At the end of the day it does not matter as long as we are interested. but I follow this channel called AvenueX in youtube. So I get to know a thing or two about production houses, various platforms etc..
This production house is known to do due diligence before taking up any story. Even for Reset if you haven't already heard, it seems the original novel did not have that much back story for each character but they worked with the original author to come up with the screenplay that works best for a drama.

Haha that is one way to look at it. He was born to love her :D . I found Hidden love had that kind of slow establishment of the relationship. So i assumed the novel had it!
Yep. Reset is a gem. I would list it on the top any day if someone asks me for C Drama recommendation. One of the reasons I was keen on this drama is because the production house of reset is producing this one as well :)

Thats actually good that it did not bother you :). You could enjoy the show with good actors and great visual :D. I could not continue the drama because of that. I love BJT and the FL was good as well but I could simply not relate due to that. I just kept wishing that they showed school days a little more but never happened so I had to stop midway:(

I think liking someone is different from doing everything to be with them or going above and beyond for their happiness. We need strong emotional base for that kind of emotion
I found the first two episodes established the emotional base for the ML and FL well in this drama . So I do not question FL's unconditional love.
In contrast, This is what I missed in The First Frost. I could not understand the basis of the relationship between them that ML was willing to do so much for FL. (Their childhood flashback did nit contain one proper convo! It was only ML staring at FL dancing or helping her even then)
Just putting my POV :)
If you are fan of TFF no offence or harm meant. You can simply ignore my comment !

Agree 💯 it took me a while may be 4-5 shows to understand those concepts. In one of the early shows the FL was calling SML as seoungnim in a K Drama but Netflix used his name. It matters so much to know the context and understanding exact relationship and its undertones which we will miss if they change or ignore!

Thanks! It can be mentioned once in the bracket or something. I don't think the context will be missed by not translating the name. I mean it is explained once and cherry is literally everywhere(from her hair band to the desktop wall paper :D) for the reference and it can be added in subtitles in brackets once to understand.
Anyways, I know I am nitpicking. These sites we are watching for free afterall. Just wanted to check what is the case in official sites.

Haha please share the link . they are full on Bollywood coded. Even 80’s songs wil suit them I tell you

☺️😅😅

when Yingtao asked JQX when will you become adult i am like girl he is already thinking about you in lipstick and heels. He is already an adult 😅

I know the nickname part but translating that too like their dialogues feels weird. As you said I guess it is to differentiate when they call Qi Le Vs Yingtao but again people can hear it clearly no need to translate!

thanks! I did not know about that. I am from India and here there are tuition classes but not until that late :)

I have two questions if somone could please answer.
1. How come as soon as the school ends and the kids head out home it is like already dark. I have seen this in other dramas as well. Not just in this one. Is it due to the time zone difference that it gets dark pretty soon in that time of the year in China or is it just in dramas to look pretty and aesthetics of the night ?
2. Why the subs use Cherry for Yingtao. I mean I know Yingtao means cherry but it is still her name. Everybody's name will have a meaning but in subs atleast in the "non official" sites it is only for FL they show Cherry. I don't know I feel weird to read that whenever someone calls Yingtao. Haha.

Yep. Teasers looks promising 👍🏻

Agree! The schedule is definitely not helping. If we see the episodes in a flow may be these things would not be so glaringly evident too !

Ya I got what you mean. And I really appreciate that you do not take the criticism we have wrongly but you participate in healthy discussion :)

I can understand. Although, I love the pairing, the story , the actors, the location and many more things... it could definitely have been made better. It is choppy and all over the place in many episodes and scenes. It is not as tightly structured as it should be.
