She broke up with him but I don’t know how he got to the place of unemployment. What did he do to be put on leave? I don’t think they’ll expand more, I was still trying to understand what happened to Wen and Yi but next thing I know, we are on the 3rd arc already.

So the regression is what they “implied” that was going on when she met the son in that house? She looked unwell. That makes sense that she looked like that.

I see. Thank you for your reply. I will look up what happened during the great leap as it’s my first time reading this.

I wish I knew more about that era in China so I could “read between the lines”. This confusion is ruining it for me.

I agree with you, the first episodes were better and think I will stop as well (I used Google to translate so I hope it was accurate 😅)

💯💯

Thank you! I’ll go watch there.

Also, how did Wen and Yi find themselves so poor and losing connection with their son? Did they join another movement?

How did Wen die? Did he end himself?

I don’t like how the ending was rushed. They dropped hints but brushed them off as if everyone knows about historical events in China. What happened that Yi looked so broken when she met the son and why did the son say that his daughter will not have Wen’s last name?

I’m having a hard time finding interest in the 3rd arc 😬.

💯💯

The story will feel suffocating if you are not used to the communist ways. I felt frustrated because the behavior was new to me. It seems that others who are used to seeing the way are ok with it? I still pushed through to watch, I’m curious about the third arc.

Yi and Wen’s romance is so cute 🥹, I caught myself smiling a few times.

Second story is not bad, the problem was the constipated trio who made the second arc unbearable. I was having a good time on episode 19 until I saw his face with his glasses come back on episode 20 then remembered to be pissed off.

😆… I hope you enjoy it as well!

I’m glad you enjoyed and also agree that he was great here 😊. Until we meet again in these MDL streets 🤗.

It’s hard for me to grasp tbh. I tried to look for neutral resources to understand the political ideology but it’s hard to find. I find extreme ends of the opinions on that matter. I think it’s one of those situations that you have to live to understand and your background will weight on the decision which way you lean. My brain just can’t comprehend.

I want to see someone bossing her around as well.
This part of China’s history is new to me, it’s interesting to learn about it.

I don’t think we dislike director Fang (or whatever her name is) enough. We need to get on her case as well. Why is she bossing minister Wen? She went as far as kicking Yi out even though she was his guess…at HIS house!! Isn’t he Fang’s superior in that organization? That haircut suits her well 😡😤.

Hate to admit but he is a good actor, he brings out strong negative emotions out of us lol.

The actor who play Yang is too invested in that role😤. I feel like whenever I’ll see him again in other dramas, I’ll just be mad at him even if he plays a good guy. Him and the actress who plays the sister in law are now black listed in my mind.

You are welcome 😊!
