It’s xianxia - spitting up blood is a given 🤣

Hahahahah luckily for me I had a whole weekend to myself when I first watched it. I remember reading the synopsis, seeing the arranged marriage plot line and was like SOLD. Binged it for two days straight 🤣 Best decision I’ve made this year hahaha. Ended up being my favorite Asian show. I’ve been watching nothing but K & C dramas for almost a year now, but after TPoB I haven’t been able to break out of historical Chinese shows 🤭It’s been like six months since I’ve watched a Kdrama, outside of Alchemy of Souls.

I stopped at like episode 32 😇 Knew what was coming, so I quit after they escaped the cave LOL

Yeah I have tapered off LITC. Could no longer stand the lying. It stopped making sense to me after episode 13. I just have it on in the background while I work and just tune in when the leads have a scene. Another example of how a show can have high ratings and I’m over here in my little corner like I hate a lot of this show and just watch for the visuals 🙃

HE TOOK HER TO HIS MOTHER’S PRIVATE HOME 😭 ❤️ TOLD HER SHE IS THE ONLY OTHER ONE THAT HAS BEEN THERE BESIDES HIS FAMILY 😭😍❤️THE WAY HIS HAND NERVOUSLY GRASPED THE LOG WHEN YIXIAO SCOOTED CLOSER TO HIM BEING ALL FLIRTY LIKE 😍😍😍HIS FLUSTERED FACE WHAT A DORK KILLER GOD 😍😍 k that’s all bye

Shit - this is really how it all goes down? That’s terrible! oh my god

I also think that Who Rules the World may fit what you’re looking for. Can’t remember if there was a lot of skinship in it, but flirty and independent leads, and some pretty big name actors in it. 😊

Added as a friend 😁

Saaaaaaaaaaammmmeeee. Both of those shows *chef’s kiss* Unrivaled. Except Fated Hearts is a contender for me. I’m still going through it, but if the excellence keeps up it’ll be up there with TPoB and WDBtD. 😌

It was a good one! I had a few problems with it overall, but I really liked it 😊

🤦🏼‍♀️That was ridiculous and kind of amusing lol

Well obviously 😂 His “disguise”, if you can even call it, that was kinda pathetic. Like was he even TRYING to hide his identity 😂

10 episodes too late 😂 🤦🏼‍♀️ 🙇🏼‍♀️ How many episodes are out right now? 18?

Nope, apparently not 🙄 She’s still lying.

Yeah that was the minor drawback for LoSL for me. Didn’t like him shutting her out and locking her in the room at the end, and I also got frustrated with them keeping secrets from each other when they were hanging out at that little fishing village lol. I hate secret keeping and not communicating so much so why tf did I pick up LITC 🤣I blame myself.

👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻Second this one 💯 My second favorite drama under The Prisoner of Beauty

There is also Coroner’s Diary, The Prisoner of Beauty (my fave), I totally second Fated Hearts 💕(the rest of the episodes got released, I’m still watching) and When Destiny Brings the Demon is another favorite of mine. You might also like Legend of the Female General and Shadow Love, although LotFG doesn’t have a TON of steaminess, but LOTS of scenes with the leads. Wonderland of Love has a LOT of skinship and sensuality, and the leads have a tooon of screen time :)

Yeah that whoooole sequence of events after he carved her name on the rock and got hit by lightning was just one disappointment after another. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Not impressed at all. Basically I am here for the prettiness of the show and for the ML. It’s interesting that other folks say that the ML has been insincere… but if that’s the case wouldn’t he also have been struck by lightning when carving his own name? 🤔 Anyway, just a thought.

I appreciate your thoughts on the ML. It makes me sad. 😔

I mean can anyone blame him? 😂

There is also Wonderland of Love. A LOT OF FLIRTING, skinship and kisses (and at least one bath scene hehe). And literally their relationship starts as a friendly rivalry, so there is a LOT of banter. And the leads have a ton of screen time.
