I felt the same way. But when they look at each other, you can see the chemistry sizzle. I am very impressed with both of them in this, cause i had misgivings at first, but am loving it so much.

what paper did he sign then, when he handed over his car keys, his credit cards, his wallet, etc. in front of her and her mother. and then he went out with that other lady and said let's celebrate me being free?

I love his little confession when he was drunk. The one she recorded.

It looks like that just happened in these last couple of episodes. I am not sure if he is at the regret stage yet, but even his older brother is shunning him now

I am on episode 8 right now and the following question has been bugging me, hope someone has some insight. Why is it so imperative that Qin Shi be married and yet Li Dai isn't? They currently both have the same status at the law firm (although Qin Shi is most likely becoming partner) and the drama is treating them as rivals. Not only that Bian Jing wanted Li Dai to be in charge of all their legal counseling/needs.

which one do you consider the secondary couple? Her ex and his fiancée (which I don't mind this couple, it kind of goes along with the story) or her brother and his wife, her bff (I hate this couple and hate their scenes, and I honestly think the person playing the bff is not a very good actress, watching her scenes next to Yang Mi, was cringeworthy, you can see the obvious different level of acting abilities, that is my opinion anyway)

Yeah I try to catch a lot with non high traffic actors, because sometimes it is nice to see a new face. I started watching Zhao LuSi way before she became huge and now she has become one of the high traffic actors. So maybe I will find another actor before they become famous.

yes, it is so good. I don't think I have been this excited about a drama that doesn't have high traffic actors in a long time.

I have been looking forward to this drama for awhile now. Although, I was hesitant about the chemistry between Xu Kai and Yang Mi, but they have so far done an outstanding job of making it work. I am only on episode 4 right now, but I am liking the pace and the story and the chemistry. What I don't like is the cut to her brother and his "wife". As of right now, they seem so insignificant to the story. Don't really care about their story, it is not why I am watching this drama. Hopefully, they won't be taking up to much of the screen time.

I loved You Are My Hero. I watched because of Sandra Ma, but fell in love with Bai Jingting in it.

Sometimes it takes a few episodes to get into them. Depending on what type of genre you like there are several real good ones. I have watched a variety. I think my first ever was either Boys over Flowers or The Heirs. There are a lot of really good ones. Here is a list of about 10 of my favorite K Dramas (although, I do have a lot more I have liked):
1. Vincenzo
2. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo
3. A Business Proposal
4. Cinderella and the Four Knights
5. Healer
6. City Hunter
7. Goblin
8. Descendants of the Sun
9. W
10. Start-Up

(a few more, cause they are all really good)
Suspicious Partner
The Master's Sun ( I am not usually a fan of the paranormal, but I liked this one)
While You Were Sleeping

I know there are several others people would add, but I have yet to watch any costume K Dramas and I have read Empress Ki is really good. Anyway, these are just a few of the many I like a lot of mine are on the Rom Com side, but i do like to occasionally check out other stuff if it seems interesting enough. My CDrama is list is a lot more extensive though. 😀

I just started watching this yesterday and on episode 5 right now and am absolutely loving it. The story synopsis drew me in, but the acting and the characters are keeping me here. So far I have really enjoyed it. I love how well all the ladies get along (except for the main wife of the second prince). It is really enjoyable to watch so far, looking forward to more. I really hope it stays this way.

I agree about the objectively and subjectively. I feel the same about quite a few K Dramas and C Dramas where I absolutely loved all the cheesiness and cliched stories, but they would never be considered BOTB. And everyone has differences of opinion, where you have one person who loves all rom coms and that is all they watch; missing out on really good other really good dramas like crime, mystery, supernatural (I don't like this one), horror (don't like this category either), political, martial arts, etc etc. There are BOTB in each of those categories but to pick one drama over all is honestly really hard and "subjective".

I loved Nirvana in Fire. It took me 3 tries to finally get into Joy of Life and I liked it, but it wasn't one of my favorites. I know I am in the minority here, but I could never get into The Untamed, I don't know why, I am a huge fan of both main leads but I just couldn't get into it. I agree about Rise of the Phoenixes, excellent drama. I haven't really watched the other two yet. If you like the political (side romance, not huge) you should try Rebel Princess, it is really good as well.

Yes, yes, yes!!! and they happen in almost every. single. drama. LOL

I agree about Go Go Squid. I like the drama overall, but the flashbacks were so tedious and annoyingly long and a lot of times unnecessary. That is my problem with a lot of modern CDramas (KDramas do this sometimes, not a lot) is the flashbacks. I am binge watcher most of the time, so when I see flashbacks from a previous episode or even things from the same episode I just watched I get so aggravated and a lot of the times FF. I think a lot of modern CDramas could be cut down to 12, 16 or even 24 episodes like K Dramas if it wasn't for so much unnecessary dialogue, Flashbacks, story, etc.

My picks would be rewatchable dramas as well. Story of Ming Lan, I have watched so many times, I could almost quote it all, as well as Cinderella and the Four Knights. These two I don't know are probably my all time favorite, there are a few more that I rewatched a lot as well. My first Asian drama was the Japanese drama Hana Yori Dango and then from there my "obsession" started lol. I mostly stick with K and C Dramas now with a couple of Taiwanese dramas thrown in every now and then.

Love this article, I like seeing the breakdown of it all. I absolutely love Love Like the Galaxy. I just finished watching it for the second time and it is so amazing, the acting is superb. I am actually surprised that there weren't a lot more older dramas (K and C) on the list. There are so many good ones it is so hard to pick favorites. I do have to agree C Dramas far excel K Dramas when it comes to costume dramas and when it comes to modern dramas K Dramas are so much better, that is mostly my opinion. I love watching modern K Dramas and ancient/costume C Dramas.

Some of my favorites, that I am surprised weren't up in the list:
KDramas
Healer
Coffee Prince
Descendants of the Sun
Goblin
Business Proposal
The Heirs
My Father is Strange

CDramas
TMofPB (eternal love)
The Sword and the Brocade
The Legends
Falling into Your Smile
Legend of Fu Yao
Princess Agents
Story of Ming Lan
Rise of the Phoenixes

Quite a few of my above mentions are older dramas, so it is probably why they weren't included, it seems the popular ones tend to be on the more recently premiered although there were a few older ones on your list. Everyone has their own likes and dislikes. I am usually for romcoms or happy endings, but I do like an occasional kick ass style drama, Vincenzo being one of my favs. It definitely is hard to pick which would be the Best of the Best because there are so many good dramas out there.

EDIT: I wrote this before I read all the comments. I see the comment about the rest of the dramas that made the list, so some of my above did actually make it on the list, just really far down and very low vote count.

Yes, they were really obvious with the product placement, especially in the last episode. I didn't know if I was watching several commercials or a drama for awhile there.

Yes I am a huge PMY fan and she is what drew me to this drama, I honestly had never heard of the rest of the cast. Now I am really interested in GKP. He did really well in this and I am excited to watch his other dramas.
