The Road To Lion Gold D

This is just the beginning, so it gives more problems than solutions.

I actually enjoyed the show, but like many have said the writers bit more than they could chew at the same time they handled it as best as they could.

The show to me gives a new look to attraction and what normal is. What gives others the right to go on dictating to you what your normal is supposed to be?

To explain this show I feel it's more of a foundation than anything, it really doesn't achieve much than to introduce to you the characters and their relationship dynamics and who they were before the current relationship.

As a build up this show was close to perfect in analyzing the characters, in showing the inner struggles and outer pressures that they had to fight to finally say yes we want to actually try this out, but as a show, it lacked too much, not enough time to truly handle the complexity of the emotions or the topics the brought forth the people who brought forth those topics.

If you are looking for closure this is not for you if you understand this is actually just the beginning of the actual story you might never see then go ahead.

It's about family love and lust. Which is looked at in many different ways, can't let go, who can't accept but at the same time wants.

The husband who can't make the two people he loves happy

And the lover who has more to lose because he is the only one ready to accept what they have as a unit of three while the other two are still stuck on the fact that relationships only have two people...

if you want a show like this that actually delivers, watch the show Trigonometry by BBC two

Have patients, look past the AI and let China give you some yearning and less toxic romance.

I don't watch anything with AI (shorts, series, ads, art, movies and so fort) , I am very specific about this because 1) because supportung one AI video is supporting the many harmful ones used to hurt people around the world 2) there are real people with real jobs that can do the things you are making AI do badly (all this series needed for that one scene was a real balcony and a real child "how hard is that to cast??") 3) I am very hard on actors and this ability to act as well as world building.

With alll that said I went into this show blind I expected nothing and hadn't even seen the traiker, by the time I picked up the AI I was already in had 4 episodes and had nothing better to do and this made me sit down and now I can't get up and that is becsur of our male lead Wan wan.

There is something I find fascinating in characters that submit in a selfless yet controlled way that makes you realise it takes nothing for you to be kind and truly give to others without hatred or wanting something in return he reminds me of chanyang from winter sun "different motivations and self worth but that ability to just give fascinates me"

And here Wan Wan and the actor are doing the character justice, you can see the thoughts running in his head, you don't even question why a person would offer their hand as an ash tray because that is who he is and to him it is only natural. Two scenes make me rewatch 1) the scene were he was about to drink the wine and shenge said he wanted to be only and Wan Wan without missing a beat put the glass down and walked away without looking back... THAT scene should eat at a person's heart. 2) the gun scene I played it a few times, I am not sure what is happening with AI and the director but this scene had me in Wan Wan's emotions I felt that fear and heart break with him love at the scene.... Our poor heart.

All in all I want to say as a person who thinks too much about shows I am happy my over thinking and analyzing of the characters made me overlook the AI and watched past episode one and now I am hooked.

Ps: those shoulder pads most be burnt and our second couple is going to be fire one person can read the room before anyone even knows what they are feeling and the other is the right catalyst to get his friends moving. Wan Wan's best friend would get home his man if he just said the word. We would kidnap shengge and deliver him at your door baby.

A story just for me, but not for me

This show seem to have been made just for me..

The acting is everything I have ever wanted, when you put three people in a house and just scream action and they manage to pull through then you know that's perfection...

Character driven plots is why I watch jdramas, people sitting standing, screaming crying out long dialogues as the go through life and all you can do is sit there and watch them go through these emotions because that's all you can do for them...

The way this drama was directed the music this drama used is why I go hunting for dramas like this it gives you a nostalgic longing feeling of something you can't remember something you can't have but yet you still want... That slice of life sombre feeling that you get knowing that this story could be happening next door to you...

You see this drama was made in perfection, my lecture lr use to say everyone starts off with 10 out of 10 and then from there we minus, so let's go into something I feel played an even bigger role in how I rated this show...

That child is barely out of his teenage years, and that man is his uncle, as a mother when I introduce an uncle to you, he remains an uncle to you THAT IS A NIN NEGOTIABLE.... there is a +-20 Yr gap that will never sit well with me and made this show impossible for me to watch I had this sinking unsettling feeling as the show went on and even more so when no-one else seem to feel the same... Fiction or not I stand by a fact 5 yrs age gap max as long as we are both above 20 and from the age of 30 we can argue the numbers... I would never let my girl child in such a relationship, not to talk of my boy child (even the casting department had to cast actors with 9 yrs difference in real life to sell this story, how about trying the actual 20??) this I give a - 5... I wonder if the gender played a role in this acceptance??

My next big no is the relationship In shared with his parents... I know the universal message is love conquers all, I know "love is patient, love is kind, it does not boast, it does not envy and it most definitely does not happen to father and son who share some similarities"

Me being wangs' mother or wangs' father and the type of past I shared with In as a lover (s*x or no s*x) ?? Or a best friend I could never comprehend this relationship, if I put you in my child's life early in or later on its not for you to screw them, the role I expect you to play has nothing to do with you screwing them... I could have looked past the age gap in the name of fiction if this man was a stranger, but the messiness that is the parents and In's relationship makes it impossible for me to lol past this relationship for what it was ... So - 5 (I have more to say on this topic but am trying to make this short)

So my three points go as follows
Wang, In, mol +1

The story and how some issues where looked into to the pint that despite my dropping skills and reservations I watched to the end... +2
