Yes, I’ve watched L&P and liked it quite a lot… except for the very, very uncharacteristically dumb reason the ML went to jail. He meticulously planned to end up in jail by severing all ties only for his plan to be punching a person in front of hundreds of witnesses? 🙄 He could’ve rented a white truck, at least! 🤣

Thanks! I really, really hoped that after they did a photoshoot promo and business picked up, that’d allow writers to focus on school matters and for things to become lighter. The writers clearly had a different idea 😳🥺🙄

Ugh… I’m on episode 14. Please someone tell me it will get better for the heroes 😳🥺🫣

Seems okay to me

The plot moves along very fast and it’s a nice change of pace compared to many dramas where we see a character staring out of a window for 5 minutes or something like that.

I don’t watch vertical dramas and enjoy long 40+ episode or slow burn dramas, but let’s be honest — a lot of historical dramas internationally make episodes longer with slow gazes, slow pans, etc. No to mention making episode count longer by having dumb tropes all the time. So through 6+ episodes it’s actually been pretty nice to see very little time-wasting.

Thanks! I’ve seen it where 2 episodes became 1 but this wasn’t directly proportional so was wondering :)

Why does MDL say 21 episodes while Netflix has 34 episodes? Just stumbled upon this show based on Netflix recommendations so don’t know the history.

Ugh… that’s disappointing to hear. The reason I love Are You the One is that characters outsmart evildoers and don’t fall for stupid traps 🪤

Because they pack so much plot/action into each episode, 24 episodes here are like 50+ regular slower paced drama episodes 😁

I highly suggest Veil of Shadows. She’s really great in it — because of the storyline, CDL gets to show off a wide range of her acting abilities 🥰

Is YOUKU translation better? Netflix translation for first four episodes seemed okay.

Sometimea those scenes get cut during editing/censorship review, but let’s hope this one stays :)

Netflix episode count is usually incorrect for ongoing dramas because they only count episodes with release dates. Not very smart because almost every time we have people asking this question.

We knew ZZA weren’t going to have romance, but when did you drop The Heir? I set it aside until it finishes — love the leads but still scarred by super trope-y time-wasting screenwriting in In the Name of Blossom 🌸 😳

Poor Zhou Yiran is getting beaten or punished in every episode 🫣🥺

Haha… that’s exactly what the ghost of dead FL was telling now-alive FL to do 😁

I haven’t read the novel, but seems like only FL & ML are “good” characters while others are either clearly bad or very suspicious 🤨

In LotFG I think the loophole was the same as my suggestion here — in that show FL was pushed into the water and supposedly drowned, right?

We don’t know yet because things can change from the source material. My main question would be how do they get around censorship rules. Maybe they will give a HE for the watchers but can convince the censors that the beginning of ep. 1 was the true ending and it was all FL’s retelling of the story / her imagination?
