Dramaqueen

the ending is so deceptive. he stood on the left side. but I aint mad. it was done beautifully

he is the weakest link in the drama. with a better actor this drama might have had a chance to be pretty high on the list of dramas this year

I too like this more than the double.

I recommended this to a friend who has never watched a cdrama in his life before and HE LOVED IT. He binged 10 episodes in one go. Found all the slapping happening shocking cuz he isn't accostomed to it but praised everything else .

I also love the mother. most compelling character after the FL.

i was throughout fully enjoying this. even thinking it has the potential to top costume dramas this year. but the end of ep 10 spells another tragic incoming ML ending and i don't have the stomach for that anymore. pausing this till i know the ending.

i am at ep 3. Incredible FL. a marvel to watch 😍
Cinematography is great , Acting is good so far. very promising beginning

oh not my type of thing. thanks 😅

is this any good? how is FL's personality?

I rarely enjoy moderns but it has been a bad few months for costume drama and I had nothing I liked and gave this a shot. I am at ep 6 and OMG this is a VERY good show.
concept is good , VERY funny, incredible acting
Show has a lot to say without feeling preachy or anything . . And most importantly both FL and ML have actual personalities.
found my next binge 😍

I like the SML character here more than ML. 👀 Even though ML can be really good with those funny sequences

Finally something of interest to me!!!

this looks interesting 👀

would reading the novel make sense or is it so removed from the drama? I am very interested to read it if it can provide me answers about s2 but if it's very different I will have to somehow sit tightly and wait for s2 😭😭😭

shit 😭😭

I haven't watched any of today's episode yet . but I saw a spoiler video below

please tell me it is NOT what I think

I can never hate on Sheng Yi. her character is true to the period and sadly to some places in the world even today.

Since this started , i found myself always watching MM episodes first because they were more exciting, I was more invested in the story while the pace of this one was a bit off to me at first that I found myself delaying watching the episodes.
well , in the last days it had been a complete reversal. I can't wait for the next batch of peony now.
I still am enjoying MM and it's apples and oranges but this one has affected me deeply on emotional level and the dialogue is masterfully written.

I just love that however rigged the system is against her she still finds it in herself to be kind. that and her resolute personality is what saves her time and time again.

I heard today is particularly tough episode. i'll wait for tomorrow to watch both 😭
