thinking about this one, how's the romance and most important: is it too much anguish? been missing some Yang…
If you haven’t seen it, watch Best Choice Ever and just fast-forward through some of the more annoying scenes with FL’s mom. It’s a really great drama with Yang Zi and Xu Kai other than the overbearing mother trope.
suggest me some good rom com c dramas, even historical dramas are fine
Similar historical drama (but slightly less anghsty) is Are You The One. Like others mentioned you can also watch The First Frost (modern romance) or When I Fly Towards You (high school/college romance) — both are from the same author as Hidden Love but there is no age gap to worry about, lol
if you want dramas where the Fl is strong and independent like this one and includes romance I recommend •the…
Are You The One is great! It’s slightly lighter in tone than Peony but it has great chemistry between leads and possibly most reasonable characters (unlike most other dramas, they make smart decisions).
Events of Episode 22 (and preceding Ep. 20-21) are kind of ridiculous even by drama standards 🙄 (continued…
Are we really supposed to believe that a near-genius level person could not think of a better revenge plan than to simply beat up the bad guy in front of hundreds of witnesses? Given how arrogant the bad guy is, it’d not take too long to dig up a lot of dirt on him, ruin his reputation, put him in jail or else. Just puzzling writing (not sure if it was like that in the novels or if this was made up for the drama).
This drama works best if you enjoy the lead pair. But that’s a highly subjective thing.
L&P is good so far (on ep. 18) but I’m really curious what happened and can’t wait for return to present day :) P.S. Have you watched “Fake It Till You Make It”? It’s a great drama about adult relationships (kind of like TFF but without so much emotional trauma). Silly name but really good and relatively short by C-drama standards.

I just started to watch L&P because you or someone else here recommended it :) Personally, I prefer pairing in TFF or When I Fly Towards You (same author as HL & TFF) so I understand you :)
Actually you are not the only one who has suggested this. And I will not attack you for it. It depends on what…
Yes, thank you for the correction. TFF commenters were wrong about timing. Although, the author has continued to release HL content after original HL novel and TFF novel.

Thank you for the correction. I should’ve double-checked what people said over on TFF comments, sorry 😳 To be fair though, I see that the author released HL Volumes 2-7 in 2022-2024. Maybe that’s what caused this confusion.
I started to rewatch it after The First Frost and just at 10 minute of 1st serie thought that the only links are:-…
Yes, watching HL isn’t necessary to enjoy TFF and the other way around. Other than the wedding, other things are more like Easter eggs for fans :) It was interesting to see discussions in real time as TFF was being released

Author of both novels is the same. TFF novel was released first. Then came HL novel. Both novels had 7-8 year difference between SZ & DJX. Then HL drama came out and changed difference to 5 years. Now TFF drama came out and it uses 7-8 year difference from the novels so it cannot match up HL drama timeline the same. Still, the biggest intersection between the two dramas is probably the wedding of SY/DJX’s friend. It is prominently featured in both dramas. There are still some other callbacks in TFF (like SY saying he has to go to Yihe and complaining about SZ’s “old boyfriend”)
What ep was it when Sang Yan went to fetch Sang Zhi from the airport and she was so brokenhearted. Currently watching…
You may know this already but keep in mind that HL drama decreased age difference between SZ & DJX. TFF the novel, TFF the drama, and HL the novel all have 7-8 years instead of 5 shown in HL the drama. This has confused some people who watched HL first and then started to watch TFF. P.S. TFF the drama is great!

Has Zhu Yi, the author of the novels, offered any insights on this? “The First Frost” novel (came out 1st) and “Hidden Love” novel (came out 2nd) have 7-8 year difference between Sang Zhi and Duan Jiaxu. “The First Frost” drama also follows the novels. Only “Hidden Love” drama changed it to 5 years. Someone in TFF comments mentioned it was done to appease the government but I don’t know for sure.

P.S. TFF the drama is great!
