Imagine getting this pressed over a fictional character and thinking the only way to cope is by calling her a “bitch.” Be so serious. If the plot’s too complex for you to follow without name-calling, maybe stick to something simpler—like coloring books.

I seriously can’t believe there are people out there not enjoying this drama?? Like hello?? I’m over here absolutely OBSESSED, scavenging for every tiny spoiler like it’s gold 😭 People on Douyin are calling it a drug and honestly?? No lies detected. I’m addicted, I’m unwell, and I do not want to recover.

don't you know that in Hong Kong dramas
"just find a man and get married" is actually an insult? talking about marriage all the time. will it ever end? so annoying.”

Song Yimeng said ‘marriage isn’t oxygen babes, calm down’ 😭‼️🔥

I heard she founds out on ep 23-24 😭ughhhhh

TikTok

Song yi ting seems like she really cares about her sister

I have seen a lot of different theories people are discussing on Weibo.

I heard nan heng has his own script too

Haha thank you — I really appreciated the convo too. And you’re right, it is hard to watch female characters get treated like punching bags, especially when it mirrors stuff we see in real life.

I do try to advocate for both real women and fictional ones — because honestly, sometimes the way people talk about female characters says a lot more than they realize. ❤️

I get your point, but he tried to kill her before the script stopped him — that was his own will. She’s a real person trapped in a world literally designed to hurt her. If anything, she deserves more empathy, not less.

Sorry bestie, I’m just tired of people calling the FL dumb every time she tries to survive. The double standard is exhausting.

LOL, him drinking green tea and black tea at the same time just to confuse people? That’s next-level sneaky 😂😂 And she was so done with his tea games—like, “Can we just get to the point already?” 😭

Ohhh okay, so because he fits the “tall, dark, and handsome” stereotype, he gets a free pass? 😂 Meanwhile the FL gets dragged and called dumb for doing what her stereotype requires? Yeah… thanks for proving the double standard better than I ever could.

So after calling her dumb repeatedly, now it’s suddenly “oh but it’s a spoof and they’re all just stereotypes”?? Okay but… then why was only she singled out? Why didn’t they say the male lead was a stereotype or dumb too? Why did all that energy only land on the FL?

Thanks for sharing that—your journey from skepticism to appreciation is a great reminder that first impressions can change. And you’re right, open-mindedness matters in criticism.

But here’s the thing: I’ve noticed not a single person is calling the male lead “dumb” or tagging him with negative labels—even when he does questionable things. Yet as soon as the FL reacts emotionally or messily, she gets hit with those comments immediately.

That double standard isn’t about being oversensitive—it’s about recognizing that women’s performances and emotions are often judged under a harsher lens. Pointing it out isn’t meant to shut discussion down but to ask: can we be fair and conscious of our biases?

You keep saying she’s dumb, but I’m still waiting to hear exactly what she did that makes her dumb. Vague complaints don’t really explain much. If you want to criticize, at least give some examples.

Actually, a lot of people are praising how natural she is in this comedic role. Comedy isn’t easy, and many think she’s pulling it off really well—especially since this is a different style for her. So calling her acting “over-the-top” feels a bit unfair when most viewers find it genuine and refreshing.

Just curious, what part made you feel like she was dumb? I feel like a lot of the time, people are really quick to judge the FL without considering what she’s actually going through in the story.

That’s fair, and I get that not everyone will connect with her right away. But I do find it interesting how the FL is always the one getting labeled “unbearable” so quickly, while the ML can lie, manipulate, or literally scheme against her and still get praised or excused.

She’s navigating a fake world, confusing emotions, and people trying to use her — of course she’s going to be messy at times. That’s what makes her real. It just feels like the criticism is way harsher when it comes to female characters.

Wait what?

Omg y’all really have no patience. The drama’s barely started and people already calling the FL unbearable… it’s exhausting at this point 😮‍💨
