Ep 15 is another nice build up but just thatā¦ now I have to wait for the next day. By now I think we can guess that ML isnāt who he says he is, so the romance will work in the end, I hope!
To be honest, with the lighting and camera work, the hot scene was not that steamy but I like that it felt cathartic for the leads. They really needed the release! š
Ah like many Chinese dramas, the parents are just nasty. In this one, itās mainly the fathers who messed up the lives of their children. I actually felt bad for the empress after the vile PM told her about her brother. That man is just twisting facts to feed his hatred and justify his actions. I also pity Murong Yao because it was partly because of his dadās passiveness that led him to be so resentful. Then of course the Emperor - I think Yi Xiao said it all!
Fun and entertaining, this show really went all out with each con ā big production, wild twists, and plenty of laughs. It ended just as chaotically as it began, in the best way. Everyone was clearly hamming it up, but beneath all that over-the-top energy, you could still see how talented the cast was. Even in the most exaggerated moments, their emotional scenes were on point.
So stressful - just finished the last 2 episodes and everyone's gone a little crazy! It's so sad that it takes so little to cause people to betray and scheme against another. My heart hurts so much for FSG š
If it wasn't for the hot scene coming up, I might have waited for all remaining episodes to drop.
Binged through all 14 /episodes and really enjoyed them. Wish this were a full-length drama since there's some good content. The lead characters are great and have good chemistry. Now I am going to have to go through the daily torture of waiting for the next episode to drop.
I agree. I loved how they brought in craftsmen to contribute to their brand and helped educate their customers…
So true! I too enjoyed that angle of the business development. ZLS might have been inspired by that business idea. I hope she succeeds despite the challenges sheās facing! Iāll look for the link but I heard that ZLS has often contributed to the styling of her characters including the one in Hidden Love. I agree, she was eye catching!
Even though the last few episodes were a bit cheesy, I still enjoyed them. I loved how they tied up all the subplotsāespecially the business storyline, which surprisingly worked well. But the real highlight was definitely the romance between the leads. Their journeyātogether, apart, and then back togetherāwas handled beautifully, with real character growth on both sides. I especially appreciated how they dropped all the pretenses and developed a deeper understanding of themselves and each other.
The comedic moments were fun too and added a nice balance to the emotional beats.
But honestly, my favorite part? The fashion and styling. ZLS and Wan Peng looked amazing in every sceneātheir outfits were on point every single time. ZLS in particular was just mesmerizing with her hairstyles and natural makeup looks.
Overall, it was a really enjoyable watch. Not a perfect 10 for meāit did lose a bit of direction here and thereābut still very much worth watching. Highly recommended!

Li Yun Rui looks so good here.

The male lead can really give great side eyes!
