Excellent article! Waiting on episode 31. Lately, I have found myself watching more Chinese historical dramas. They are a good mix with the Korean rom-coms I love.

Whoa. I was getting close to the end of episode 32 and we still hadn't seen what looks like their marriage (seen during the intros). Then it ended and I said, "WTF?" Came here and learned there is a season two. Thank God.

Absolutely fabulous article. It's funny and well written! I've read through the comments (8 years ago?) but I don't remember reading anything about VOMIT. This usually goes along with the piggy-back ride or the good-night hug. I mean, you just know it's coming, right? But I will mention one thing that annoys the hell out of me …and this is probably because I am an older American. Why do girls scream and cover their eyes when they see a bare male chest? Yes, she's naïve, but don't they have swim meets or beaches? LOL. I'll bet every movie with Sung Hoon probably has a clause in his contract that he has to have a scene of him swimming with bare chest and skin-tight racing swim trunks. Ah … but I digress. At least in some of the newer dramas with "older" characters (why is 25-30 considered OLD?), the FL can express some admiration for said bare chest -- "It's OK to Not Be OK" comes to mind. Rant over!

On YouTube, a search for Song Wei Long upcoming dramas and the same for Shen Yue, both mention "Corner of Love" for 2020. One can hope!

I cannot claim to be the originator of this expression. I heard it on a YouTube video about tropes. Hit by a truck/car? Ah it's "The White Car/Truck of DOOM" trope. After I heard this expression, I paid more attention to the car or truck of DOOM hitting a lead. OMG! They were almost always white!
