If the second male lead were the male lead, but even more overpowered

The cinematography is to die for !!!

If I had to describe the first ep in one words it would be realistic.

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! IT'S SO GOOOD!!!!

Time travel; one of my fave genre is backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!! TT TT

This is only my second survival show after Boys Planet, so I’m not super familiar with how these things usually go but the favoritism and pretty privilege are way too obvious for it to be called a survival show. Talented people won’t get to debut just because what? They’re not ‘pretty’ enough? Take An Xin(i don't remember the name clearly) from Boys Planet C, for example, he clearly wasn’t good enough to deserve a solo stage when there were several contestants who were far more talented. And I dare say, he barely even passes for an all-star. But I guess this isn’t anything new. Still, it’s incredibly unfair to the other contestants.

Dude, the amount of self control I had to exercise to not smash my screen when I saw the blatant body shaming by the so called ‘judges’ who are supposed to be evaluating talent ; it was unreal. The audacity to tell a barely adult guy to lose weight infront of his peers when he isn’t even overweight to begin with is insane. Imagine someone body shaming you by saying you look ‘way too mature for your age’ (as a euphemism), and the other supposedly adult judges nodding in agreement. The audacity.
I hope he don't take everything to heart and eats healthy.

5.4 is crazy lmao!! lowkey they had it coming

watched the first episode; it healed the little girl in me

Am I the only one who's pissed about the hierarchy in the living conditions too? Like, fine - you have different uniforms, different standing positions, and different practice rooms - but shouldn't everyone who participated and survived the audition at least get equal accommodation?

nah man, han tuo needs to stop acting like a wooden log. he looks so stiff.

One of the most beautiful and intriguing plot ngl

Why is everyone talkin about the rating? 8.6 is a really good rating to begin with

Strongly agree! Omegaverse stories often reinforce the same sexist power dynamics we try to fight irl. The difference is that here, both male and female characters (especially omegas) are subjected to these roles.
The issue isn’t that the concept is weird because fiction can be creative- but that these stories romanticize harmful hierarchies. The typical "strong alpha, weak omega" dynamic mirrors real-world gender oppression, yet it's rarely challenged. Instead, omegas are shown giving in to dominance, and this is framed as love or destiny, not coercion.
i think that’s what makes it problematic- it glamorizes inequality instead of questioning it.
tho idt this drama would romanticise "the one who gives birth is weak" dynamic.

came for romance stayed for comedy

Very mid tbh. The concept is pretty strong but not interesting enough to make it work even if it's just 6 episodes.

you're telling me the glasses girl doesn't have like.... the COOLEST room....EVER???!!

law + office romance + try hard comedy??? I'm out

I like this version more because it's more palatable to me than the original one. I think it's the fast pace due to the fewer number of episodes.

on a side note, i'm actually curious why don't they allow them to meet in irl? is it the actors themselves or the pressure by the creators and chinese media?
