How toxic is the relationship between the leads - if at all? Is this another run-of-the-mill superficial drama…
I’d say it is toxic, at least at the beginning. The ML has toxic traits, and the FL opens up later on. They need each other for survival, those details are explained in the earlier episodes. However, the FL empathizes with him. I haven’t continued the episodes yet (I’m waiting for all the episodes so I can binge-watch lol), so I don’t know about their relationship now, but going by the comments, it seems good
I think the rating is higher than what this drama actually gives. It’s not bad, there are some fun moments, but a lot of episodes feel like fillers. I’m 18 episodes in and there’s barely any real storyline lol. He Yu’s character surprised me, he’s annoying but kind of cute 😂 I love xianxia dramas, but I’ll probably forget this one easily. I’d rate it a 7.9, or a solid 8 at most. The chemistry gets better from episode 14 onward. Also, I have to say, this drama has one of the most beautiful posters I’ve seen😍. Overall, it’s fine if you just want something to pass the time or play in the background
I just finished Ep1, and it was so beautiful 😭❤️❤️ I cried a lot during the scene where her mom interprets for her husband’s mom 😭😭 Episode 1 was absolutely satisfying. It wasn’t easy to find this drama on any legal website, so I was really thankful for the links from other commenters. I’ll watch the rest later, but 10/10 I recommend it.💯 Link’s in the spoiler comment if anyone wants it!
This drama is still on hold for me lol, after watching the first 3 episodes, but I’m cracking up at the comments 🤣 What even happened with this story? How many genres are they gonna add? This is some extra fantasy drama.
I do ship the two Rins though, Li Xiang and Lin Juan 😔 Can they add that? Haha.
It’s so hard to avoid spoilers when even the Youku YouTube channel keeps posting short videos.
Looks like this drama is doing pretty well for a short drama 🙃
I’ve noticed they were airing it at the same time. I was watching both lol. This one is sci fi and the other,…
find soul swap so fun because I don’t see many C actors acting all cute like in these stories 😆 Totally agree with you Affinity is amazing! From the very first episodes, it grabbed my attention, which is why I saved it to binge watch later. Enjoy watching ❤️
ML Cui Yu Xin has a new drama airing right now on WeTV, How to Train Your Killer🫡. It has a body and soul swap theme, he really has some interesting drama themes this year 😆 I’ll put Affinity on hold I feel like it’s worth binge watching, because two episodes a day is just torture 🫠
That sounds almost like To My Shore without the BL.
Hahaha really? I haven’t watched that one yet. Maybe, but not really lol this drama has fantasy and supernatural elements 😆 So far I’ve watched 3 episodes, and the ML is trying to be nice to the FL, but because of the plot he can’t help it lol so he’s kind of toxic.
OK I just watched the first 5 minutes lol and omg the ML looks really crazy good 😂 He kinda scared me though, especially with him in police handcuffs staring at the FL. The synopsis makes him seem toxic but also good?? IDK lol, but I’ll keep watching. So far, 6 episodes are available for VIP, and episodes 7 & 8 need payment.
The synopsis on Youku makes more sense and sounds more interesting to me than the one here.
Affinity Five years ago, Wu Nongyu followed her brother Wu Siyuan to the scene of a murder, where her life became entwined with Xie Xinxu, who was then suspected to be the killer. Her very presence seemed to exert a strange, instinctive pull on him. A single glance was enough to awaken an uncontrollable desire to possess her.Five years later, determined to have Wu Nongyu, Xie Xinxu disguises himself as a cold, ascetic medical professor and deliberately draws close to her. Step by step, he lays his traps, guiding her into falling in love with him, and the two embark on a perilous journey together. A man born with an extreme lack of empathy, almost mad by nature, gradually learns what normal human emotions feel like through his constant companionship with a girl as warm and radiant as the sun.
