It shouldn't be shelved over a pair of earrings for sure 🙄 chinese netizens are getting too cray cray

Especially since LYR is quite a bit older. This is their 3rd time collaborating, can you believe it? 🙈

She will play a character called Zhong Yu, she has something to do Zhang Kang Le's character

I really want to see the triumph of Bi Zhi, such a simple yet impactful character.

True. Chasing this drama 2 episodes or 1 episode a day feels like I'm chasing a different drama each day, it's that inconsistent. Like suddenly the FL started smiling at him or when the ML suddenly wanted to see the stars. It is just meandering along the same plot points. I get that they were supposed to be shown as slowly falling in love with each other but the transition to the lovey dovey phase seems jerky and ham handed. Some sweet scenes also need better direction, acting and camera language. Like when they confess their admiration for each other. It's a big thing since the beginning of their relationship was marred with betrayal and revenge. And yet such a meaningful scene fell flat for me because of the drab camera language and blank acting of the FL. I wish the bgm or chemistry would have conveyed the struggle that would have made such a scene meaningful, like they have to confess despite all the problems in their surrounding and they can't help themselves but be attracted to each other. The overall effect was so bland and boring. The dialogues told us what we were supposed to feel but the action didn't enhance that imo .

Thank you for your recommendations, anyway. Sweet of you! 💗

Yess I loved them, look so cute and fluffy. 😍

Yasss... I've watched these and loved them!

I have realised that the moment I start thinking and questioning things logically, I start losing interest in many popular dramas. I've heard people raving about LLTG, like POB, and I just couldn't continue after a 1000th time someone called the FL naughty or I'll behaved without any proof about it through scenes or acting. They just kept on telling this over and over, instead of showing it. In POB, the logic is getting laughable and the romance part is not resonating that much with me anymore since it's kind of not superimposing with the characters that they created in the earlier episode. Like the clueless and hesitant WS is not sitting right with me when I first believed him to be clever, intense and being able to read the FL like a book. Hence even when I tried to shut off my brain and just enjoy the romance, ep 19 and 20 kind of bored me on that front too. Maybe binging would have made it better.

Yes I have watched that one. I loved it!

I think I will watch NIF someday definitely. As for journey to love, I dropped it when she started asking him for a baby. There was a scene that was definitely giving rapey vibes, I couldn't continue after that 🙈

Yes that's what I've heard too! First 5 episodes of POB were good, now it's veering into the okay category for me .

Nice

True 😂 thank you!

I have watched blossom and enjoyed it, one of the few cdramas that I watched till the end. LLTG, I dropped, it started getting repetitive for me at around ep 15

I really want to get into it because I've heard it's one of the greatest dramas from China. Also it sounds right up my alley. I will definitely check it out when I have more patience haha.

Thank you! I tried getting into NIF but it's so dense in the beginning 😬

I don't mind lighthearted romance, some of my favourite dramas are lighthearted rom coms, like Unforgettable Love. It's just that, the packaging and PR should not lead me astray. Otherwise it seems disingenuous to me and prevents me from completely immersing in the story as the expectations are different. I wasn't going to check out Youthful Glory, not because I don't like lighthearted romance, but because SWL is not my cup of tea, I struggle to fully grasp his acting. I might check out JOL as I've heard that is an intelligent drama and since the season 2 is also out, I will not have to suffer through the cliffhanger hehe.
As for LNF, I am waiting for good subs but I've already spoiled myself with the cutest special episode ever 😍

I heard mixed reviews about the double. Is it really good then? I hear that also has some problems with logic like POB?

Thank you! I will watch that after season 2 then!
