Nothing like getting the "Sorry, we don’t have the copy right of this content in your region yet. We will fight this for you on our greatest effort" message

Right, I have straight flat hair that won't hold a curl no matter what I do. I actually got a perm as a teen because I wanted some curl. It was not a good decision.

I was worried this would be the case. I knew I would be fighting second lead syndrome because it is Akaso Eiji so I was hoping the ML wouldn't be to awful

I am wondering too, I always have issues with Wetv

Great article, I have been wanting to try more jdramas and a rom-com with a socially awkward male lead sounds like my cup of tea. Thank You

Amazing article!! I looked him up when I was watching him on The Long Ballad and was stunned to learn that he was the voice for some of my favorite drama songs.

From the comments I am reading I take it that this isn't a happy ever after type romance and more about a toxic relationship that ends badly. Or am I wrong?

I am so glad that I didn't know about the dubbing before I started watching cdramas. That might have kept me from watching one and I would have missed so much. By the time I found out I was hooked on cdramas.
I have learned that dubbing on the whole really doesn't bother me I just see it as two actors working together to create one character. That said since I have to read subtitles I don't notice if the voice and mouth movements are in sync. I know that has to be annoying to those who aren't busy reading subtitles.
The only time I have really been annoyed was when there was an almost little girl like voice coming from the FL. Eventually I realized that it was being done like that to signify the character was young at the beginning. It allowed them to keep the same actress as the character grew, which I do prefer.
Thank you for the article it was a great read!

I am watching Go-Ahead on Viki and noticed just 40 episodes listed but here it list 46. Does anyone know if the Viki version is a cut down version or does Viki just not have the last 6 episodes? Also if the Viki version is a cut down version am I missing any major scenes by watching that version?

Good to know, I looked it up after I saw Vivian Sung in My Unicorn Girl but never got around to watching it. I will put it on my list now.

Is Our Times an actual romance? I thought iI had read somewhere that it was more of a friendship than a romance.

Great article! Of the older shows I have only watched Goblin and What's Wrong With Secretary Kim andI am thinking about starting Its Okay to Not Be Okay. For the newer dramas I am watching Doom at Your Service and hope to start My Roommate is a Gumiho.

I have been wondering about Legend of Fu Yao for some time now and your talk about chemistry may have finally convinced me to watch

Thank you, sounds like I should try both. I will start with She Was Pretty. Sounds like no matter which I pick I will suffer from second lead syndrome

Before this starts I am thinking on watching Pretty Li Hui Zhen or She Was Pretty, does anyone have opinions on those versions?

Great article, I love Hao Du and his complexity . One of my favorite things about The Long Ballad is how the characters grow, how it doesn't seem forced or rushed

I don't think so at all. It is actually rather weird to try and watch this right after TMOPB because while the leads from ELOD are in in TMOPB their story is completely different

I just finished this show and thoroughly enjoyed it . I do wish Yan ChiWu had fallen in love with someone else other than Ji Heng, he is awesome and she was absolutely not. Also this is second time in a couple months I have the actor Yi Daqian play a wonderful character with an unhappyending, I hope in his next costume drama he gets an hea.

I watched The Long Ballad, it was what made me a Dilraba fan, possibly my favorite drama I have watched in 2021

I am right now on a binge watch of ELOD. For the longest time I couldn't get into it and started and stopped watching it many times until very recently when I started watching it again and it clicked for me. I will check Love Designer out for my next Dilraba watch.
