Does anyone know if it's true that this may air? I read the article in my home country news thar they used AI to swap the face of trouble actor and number of episodes are shorten. It didn't say when but possibly to be aired!! Please please 🙏 to be true !!!!
please. can the women in this drama get peace. Now you can't even go back home after your husband dies??
ikr 😭 I had to check the fact. I found ；In ancient China, a widow generally stayed with her deceased husband's family to raise her children or care for her in-laws, but whether she could go home or remarry depended heavily on the time period (dynasty) and her family's social class. And a widow could technically return to her parents' or brothers' home (her maiden family), but it was not simple or automatic.
I am so glad this drama is 47 episodes! Bcoz the plots are so good and things don't drag but resolve quickly. Each episodes are so satisfying to watch. No filler and no skipping on my part 😆I can enjoy longer episodes !
If the story follows the novel, there won’t be any revenge. The whole story revolves around Shen Jialan’s…
I see. I didn't read novel, but from the nuance of story up to 5, it's not like blood revenge but she may seeks the truth behind her family fall down and the Ep 1 was very strong starting of such nuance. I felt like her wit and smartness will bring the justice to her family with the help of male lead.
I cannot wait to see what's Shen Jialan's revenge plan .... She is so smart and knows not to rush, stay low key! I am super curious who is the real betrayer of Shen's downfall! Thank You Tong Hua, your usual brilliant story telling!
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment. Your experiences are really interesting, and I truly…
I kind of understand what you wrote about Luke in novel. He is much worse than in the drama. He is truly an arrogant man. There were rumors said that Luke in novel is so notoriously bad, actors were worried to take this role. If it's true kind of risky.... But I don't believe rumors unless Director tells us they declined the offer for this role. In Flora's case, she was portrayed much low key persona, so her dynamics were missing for sure from the drama.
Reading so many reviews and comments, we watched the same drama, but so may different way to understand the story 😂
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment. Your experiences are really interesting, and I truly…
Hi 👋
I think I kind of understand what you wrore about portraying the Flora in the drama. Hereafter is my feelings of comparison of Novel vs. Drama:
(n) Novel (d) Drama
(n) Female lead oriented ; Flora, her growth is the core story (d) Make lead oriented ; Luke as romantic lead, finding thru love I think production wanted more romanticized storyline for female viewers with handsome actor. They also need to make money 😆
(n) Flora is much stronger person than in drama (d) She is insecure, she wants romance, she is soft spoken and don't express herself well My guess is in order to have male lead to stand out for future romance, they needed to make Flora much more low key character, so that Luke and Flora looks totally opposite in relation. Then they gradually walked towards to each other and made them equally balanced couple.
(n) Very raw relationships, friends with benefits becomes real love story (d) They needed to tone down their relationships due to censorship, so it became more soft romantic story It's too bad when freedom of speech is kind of controlled by authority can change the nuances of actual novel to something much more subdued.
These are my thought after completing the novel. I think sometimes it's best not to compared novel with drama, bcoz many times novel is better and readers will get disappointed. Overall, I like both drama and novel. I watched this video is bcoz of Sun Qian. Some said her acting wasn't good, but I think Director told her how to act in this drama, it's called directing 😂
While I was watching 'Lost You Forever', there were 2 seasons. It was almost 1 year apart, so I couldn't wait S2 and I read the whole novel. S1 was very similar to original and S2 the novel was so good. Then drama S2 came out. The most important part was changed 180 degree in drama. Readers were furious and reviews went so bad on S2. But many who didn't read said S2 was as good as S1. Some find out later that important part of S2 was changed completely but they liked the drama better bcoz it was less hurtful.... different takes of each individual. Hard to please everyone, right? That's all. Thx for reading it.
I read almost all reviews here and you made the most fair and good opinions about this drama to me. Maybe bcoz you read the novel. Many low rates are basically hating toxic characters. They should never watch if this type of drama isn't their cup of tea. Some dropped it but some continued to watch then complained about it 😂 I don't get their mentality. If I don't like it, I won't watch it, period. Some noted that they forced themselves to watch it, WHY????
I almost finish reading the novel online translated in ENG and making this long chapters into 24eps must have been hard. Narratives of ML and FL are slightly different in the drama per my opinion, but both actors portrayed them very well. Reading novel probably can relate to the characters better, maybe bcoz you can feel their inner thought thru wordings. That's why when the small things/details are missed out in the drama, novel reader feel uneasy or frustrated. Thats why I only read after or in the middle of drama once I liked the drama very much. Length of drama and how to express their feelings and thinkings are all up to screenwriters and Director. And how actors express/oerform their feelings and characters will follow. When entire things synchronize, drama will become excellent... I think.
BTW, with my experience since I maybe older groups as audiences, many men or should I say many people are not easy to change, but there are people who changed bcoz of true love. That is possible and I know someone like that through my friend. There are many compromises in their relationships but that's is what True Love does. This drama portrayed the same to me.
And I married to my boss and I can related to this drama a lot. It's very complicated when you are in office relationship. I also broke up on 4th years bcoz of my husbands wishy washy personality 😂 Obviously not bcoz of office politics like this drama. Luckily we are happily married, That's why I love this drama very much bcoz I can related to it.
I had to drop the comment bcoz I finally read very good review. (Excuse my JapanEnglish... Hope you understood it. Ciao 👋
There were discussions about why Luke asked Hr/Tracy to keep it secret about award, pictures and Luke is taking job at USA. Hereafter some I found I kind of agree:
Protecting Flora’s Pride: Flora genuinely earned and expected the promotion. Handing the award to a rival candidate backed by family connections (who secured a massive fund) was a heavy political blow.
Preventing Workplace Isolation: Luke wanted to spare Flora from the public embarrassment of knowing she lost out due to corporate maneuvering and her secret relationship status, hoping to buffer the emotional impact.
Controlling the Fallout: With evidence of Luke and Flora’s secret relationship already landing on HR’s desk via Tracy, Luke tried to manage the damage behind the scenes—even planning a transfer to the US to protect Flora's standing at Lime agency.
Unfortunately his good intentions to save Flora and their relationship gave opposit effect. Flora quit job and broke up with Luke. I guess Luke thought everything were under his controlled. Then he failed 😨 Novel on this is different from drama though.
Pretty sad and amazing that there are non-empathetic people like that. When I was watching that scene I was 1)…
Thx for comments. I kept watching so many spoilers before I finished it, so I kind of knew how this will end.
Yes, I wanted to say 'there are some people who lack of empathy'. That's the phrase I wanted to say. (Eng is my 2nd language).
Anyway, I married to my boss and our relationship wasn't this up and down, but we once broke up on 4th yrs. Then happily married. I can relate to this drama a lot and I realized some people really have no idea what is like to be in office romance. This drama is very realistic except individual personality.....
EP22, I couldn't stop sobbing while watching Luke crying so hard while on the phone talking to Flora's line during aurora visit. He misses her, apologized her and he said he loves her three times. That scene only, I was able to forgive him of his bad behaviors up to Ep 21. He simply didn't know how to love her.
However in other SNS platform, some account posted how happy they were watching the scene and some comments with big smile emoji and they all laughed at him for crying.
I was simply stunned there are people felt like that....are we watching the same drama? I know he broke her heart and maybe he deserves to be punished for it, but he knows he made the mistakes.
I was just so shocked to know there are so many different people in the world how they felt the particular scene.......

2 things I noticed here at MDL are (1) very young audiences (2) bad subtitles may cause misinterpretation
