Some info & corrections about this series & the novel it's based on cause some of you are annoying af in the replies rn!! 1. This is a Taiwanese adaptation of the novel "Mou Mou" (某某) by Mu Su Li (木苏里). A great novel & author!! It's a coming of age, slice of life story with a slow-burn romance! In the beginning, it will focus more on their family issues, their school life/friends & of course the friendship between the 2 leads that will blossom into love!!
2. About their relationship, they are not blood-related, half brothers or even step-brothers since their parents are not legally married, but just dating (at least in the novel & so far in the series), they didn't grow up together and just met when they were in high school after their parents started dating and cohabiting under the same roof! It was love at first sight for Jiang Tian and the series shows us just as the novel did from his pov of meeting Sheng Wng on his 1st day at school!
3. The initial plot isn't original for sure, but the story and depth as well as the production crew working behind this are top-notch!! So to see the rating go down over some dmpos here is disheartening to say the least!
4. Just because the parents decided they want to be together does not grow a sibling bond between them. They know of each other's existence for like what a minute? This is like saying some random stranger at the mall is my sibling. Especially when eventually it was proved their connection was much deeper and heartfelt than their parents...Since their parents' relationship won't even last and it was more out of convenience, rather than for love...
The eps are so long and yet they ended so fast for me while watching...And as expected it's as good as I thought it would be!! I am also glad to see them follow the novel well!! ❤
Oh I see! Then I am actually glad if they change that part honestly into a more tame and concenting plot...And I don't mind the ML having to suffer a bit and chase her asking for forgiveness since he did decieve her! However I do hope we can see them get their happy ending eventually with their kids!!
Umm saw some comments below about separation & angst which got me feeling worried!! Does anyone know if the novel have a happy ending between the FL & ML?? Cause I tend to hate sad endings and I just started this TT I don't mind it being angsty as long they get through it successfully tho...
I am only on ep 2 and now after reading ur I am scared TT The novel has a happy ending between the F & ML right?? I don't mind the angst as long they get through it successfully...
Okay, I thought I could let this marinate a bit more but I ran out of patience and started it!! >< Currently on ep 2 and I am already loving it!! Unlike some other faves of mine that were a bit slow/boring in the beginning, this one hits off right from the start!! I am so excited honestly!! I just hope they can keep this up until the end & don't start going down after we reach near end...
Hmm...Tho there are quite a few angst scenes they didn't feel too heavy except from maybe 2-3 scenes that made me cry...The have paced the story well & have balanced the sad/happy scenes nicely so that you don't stay sad for too long? At least that was my experience!^^ Also another part I enjoyed & saved us from some extra clishe angst was the deep undertanding & trust between the leading couple!
I'm coming here after Xia Zhi Guang's stunning performance in The Spirealm & I would like to ask a few things before diving in!! >< 1. Does this series have bromance between the 2 ML? 2. Is the FL of this series involved romantically with any of the 2 MLs and if yes do they have lots of romance scenes? ( I ask cause usually I prefer my crime/mystery series romance free or at least kept to a minimum) 3. How have the cases been so far? Are they immersing & interesting?
They’re NOT related. Sheng’s father is dating Jiang’s mother. Even before that sheng didn’t know his desk…
Just a correction as to avoid further misinfo, they are not blood-related or half brothers and not even step-brothers since their parents are not legally married, but just dating (at least in the novel, idk how the series will play that part) , they didn't grow up together and just met when they were in high school after being forced to live under the same roof, due to their parents decision... As for the storyline....It's a coming of age, slice of life type of story with a slow burn romance! In the beginning it will focus more on their individual family issues, their school life/friends & then get to their romance gradually! After they naturally go from enemies to friends first! Other than that, it doesn't have too dramatic moments tho 2nd half is pretty angsty! But I wouldn't call it boring^^ The novel was very engaging for me~
Tho it's been a few years since I have read the book, as someone who tends to avoid sad endings with few exceptions,…
Umm actually stay with me's novel also has a happy ending TT It's just that they only managed to cover half of the storyline in the adaptation & 2nd season sadly wasn't able to go through...So we were left hanging...
Did eps 1-2 already drop on gagaoolala?? Even tho it says "not available in your region" TT Btw it says that ep duration is 49 min...And there are 12 eps in total!! The production is big for sure!! I am so excited!!
I have only been able to find half of the original novel translated into a language I can read. I just want to…
Tho it's been a few years since I have read the book, as someone who tends to avoid sad endings with few exceptions, I can tell you with certainty that it was a happy ending! That much I can remember...But I also remember myself crying on the 2nd half of the novel so it is packed with angst & also before their happy ending i think there will be a few years of separation between them if my memory is accurate!
I really like "Unseen Immortal of Three Hundred Years" from this author!!! But never read modern story she wrote…
Mu Su Li is truly a great author with a very versatile writing and that's one of the things I like most about her works! ^^ Be it historical/fantasy, sci-fi or modern time she has done it all!! I def reccomend this one & two other novels would be 1.Global examination, 2. Copper coins.
