This was an amazing drama. The acting was on point, especially Matsumoto Marika. This drama really showed the pain of betrayal, of losing yourself in the pain. I also appreciated that the drama didn´t end after the divorce, but that it showed the characters years later and how they developed, or not in some cases. Personally I don´t have an issue with the relationship between Kisaragi Minori and Miyake Wataru. This is one drama, I will rewatch again.

There are some that are nice to watch or even rewatch..one of my favourite modern lakorns is "Krachao Seeda or in Thai กระเช้าสีดา (2021)", you can find it on youtube with English subs or "To The Moon and Back (2023)", an older historical one that I like to watch is "Roy Mai"..But I have to admit, that I learned not to expect too much from lakorns..

I really love this drama. There is a calmness to this drama, but it also really manages to have a huge impact on my emotions. Some might find this boring, as this is not your "typical" BL drama with lots of characters and silly plots. I really appreciate the acting and there was not a single cringy scene. I would say this drama speaks more to older, mature viewers.

This is definitely one of my favourite BL dramas now.

You have to use a VPN, e.g. Italy. Here is ep 7: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9SEe5cpkMs&list=PLoqdmwJPCU35AqHWHKLdr5RWqQhBiVl61&index=13&ab_channel=YYDSEntertainment

This is a remake and sciptwise it follows closely to the Taiwanse drama or the Thai remake.

I have just checked, you can watch it on dramacool.

Could you tell me where you found it? I´ve tried looking for it, but I only found the 21 eps so far and not the epilogue.

This is a total "makjang" drama. I am used to a lot of craziness in lakorns, but this drama was way over the top. The bad guys weren´t really punished, and the FL was too easily persuaded and left the ML too easily and too often. She didn´t trust the ML at all. Mario and Yaya played their roles really well, but there was no spark for me between them and I didn´t like the FL´s character at all.
I fastforwarded a lot, so this is just 5 stars for me, as I found this larkon unsatisfying.

I didn´t like this drama when I watched the first episode, but today I gave it another chance...and I found out what threw me at first. This drama doesn´t have a lot of background music that "tells" you what to feel, or that glosses over moments and scenes..instead you are confronted with the uncomfortable silence when people don´t really know each other yet and don´t know what to say or how to act...
This is definitely not a fast paced drama, but a slow one...I really enjoyed binge-watching it today .

Yes, these are new actors and you notice it, but I prefer this drama over cringey, shrill dramas, that make me want to hide or fast forward.

I love rewatching this drama. It is a heartwarming drama without too much drama, no real backstabbing and no clingy people. If you want to watch something to feel good, especially after dramas with too many trops or annoying second leads, this is a good watch.

The novel has a HE.

I downloaded the videos from a chinese website (duboku.cc) and the subtitles from subscene

I liked the first episodes, even with their flaws..some things annoyed or baffled me..such as Yan Lan running of on her own to buy honey during a training exercise and no one seems to care. O_ O
But after watching episode 5 and 6, I can only say the script and editing is a mess, we jump from one scene to another, at episode 5 Yan Lan and Huo Yan already have a date, kiss and are together, only for him to break up with her in episode 6 because of some fears he has O_O I feel like as if I am having a whiplash...
I´ll try a few more episodes because of the cast to see if this drama gets better or even worse..

This was only one episode, but I am really wondering how the title relates to the story...I was expecting a I nice, mellow healing drama, but feel as if I was thrown dow Alice´s rabbit hole...it was a great first episode and I can´t wait to see how this story will unfold...

I am aware. My lists are there for me to keep track of things and sometimes it takes a while until I update them. :-)

It started out really good, but the last episodes were rushed...the story began to feel disjointed after he was framed and they broke up.
All in all it is a good drama. I loved Zhang Han´s acting. He really "was" the character he portrayed. I might rewatch it with good subs, but I am thankful we had the option of the machine translation.

I remember not liking the Weit version so much, but this lakorn is even worse..besides the female lead, I dislike and despise every character..the relationships, if you want to call them so, are not healthy at all. I kept fastforwarding with the hope of redemption..but this is one of the rare dramas, that I would love to rate zero or even in the minus margin.

After watching the first 8 episodes, I can say that it is not a drama that totally "wows" me, but I find it interesting and I am curious to see what happens next. Some people have mentioned their problems with the actors use of English, personally, it doesn´t bother me. The mixture of Chinese, English with an accent actually makes this drama more believable. Not everyone speaks another language perfectly. They only speak English when necessary. They didn´t study to become translators but a medical profession. What annoyed me in some dramas was, that one person spoke eg Korean to one person, and this person answered back in English...which doesn´t make sense..you either communicate in the same language or someone else has to translate. So, I´ll continue watching this drama.

As I haven´t watched this drama yet as I was waiting to see if this drama has a BE or a HE, this is nice to hear, as I dislike switching from one actor to another in the middle of a drama. I have watched some Indian dramas where this happened and it didn´t always turn out well. I am honestly suprised that they chose to invest the money and do this. I hope this this turns out well for KBS.
