Gosh Liu Xue Yi oozes with charisma and enigma in Love At Night. Really wanna see him lead more dramas. Loved his acting since ALP.

dropped after 15 mins. Gosh FL's character is just soo cringey.

I came here for the romance but was awestruck by the cinematography instead. This has been a heartfelt journey with beautiful slow-burn romance that gradually matured like fine wine. I just love how the director pay extra screentime to highlight those emotional scenes, which were so soul-crushing and deeply engraved upon my heart. I'll come back from time to time to rewatch those. The leads were so endearing, especially ml, and the story was very eventful and filled with thrillers, as opposed to what i had expected initially. I skipped alot of propaganda scenes and side characters' parts though.

Btw, lol i didn't expect ml to turn into John Wick :v

i really hate it when writers make FLs into damsels in distress / bummers who spill and whine about their sob stories for no reason, especially when they and their male counterparts are not that close yet. It feels forced and makes me cringe, as if FLs were trying to fish for pity from MLs (¬_¬)

on ep4 and ML is so nosy and disrespectful (¬_¬) . Dropped.

female lead

gosh ML is despicably remorseless beyond redemption it's revolting to watch him. I'm glad FL didn't end up with this dirtbag.

A rare gem this is. I find ML so endearing and well-written, precisely because of is childishness, hot temper, and emotional vulnerabilities, especially when it comes to FL. Those flaws resonate with me a lot.

it's worse. Both production and dialogue are subpar. I prefer the Korean version.

I see, but my interpretation on this scene is totally different. I get a lot of viewers are sold by this scene, but I'm not one of them. I'm a sucker for angst and I'm against unequal sufferings, so when I saw that dream i found it so anticlimactic, as in my head i was screaming "Dude your future wife just died saving you, especially after you brutally broke her heart, while you're here frolicking and having a blast aka the best time of your life!" :v . I get that he was devastated, but it only lasted for like not even half a day, and then he was in bliss for another half, next he woke up teeming with hope. You see, unequal agony and no angst for me, only frustration and disappointment.

(irrelevant to this drama but I was traumatized by Love & Redemption because ML spat too much blood and suffered substantially more than FL. I hated it when Ye Hua in TMOPB restrained Bai Qian and went up sacrificing alone. I dropped LLTG because FL's past grievances were addressed by another grievance lol. So you see where i came from) ~(˘▾˘~)

Final ep but ML's acting kinda fell short (¬_¬)

On ep 26 and my heart actually aches for 2ML :< . He has more depth than ML imo.

on ep8 and eww. That chicken-flavoured kiss >"<

it doesn't for you but it does for me. Instead of the exciting, mentally stimulating feeling, the vibe between them has turned into something very tacky that made me cringe when they're together. I'm glad you enjoyed it, but this isn't it for me.

I totally agree that they just don't seem to be the type. I'm not saying he's not smart. I'm saying he's not fit for romantic dramas. The chemistry between the leads is very unnatural and stale. In fact i think they barely have any spark during their interactions. That's why i said i wish the romance didn't happen, cuz it felt so forced and so so cringey, and it ruins the investigation aspect for me. I'd rather have them becoming best comrades-in-arms. I also agree that they are reasonable. But when FL became subservient, she lost me there.

ML's look is so effeminate i might mistake him for FL lol

🤣

I know he was coping. The thing is, if he really was in denial, I would be swimming in the river of my tears instead of complaining here, nor would i be underwhelmed and disappointed. It's not that he refuses to believe FL was already gone; he truly believed that FL was still alive, and he truly experienced bliss instead of anguish. He was truly in blissful ignorance, and although he was unknowingly dying, he wasn't aware of his impending demise nor FL's sacrifice. By the time the dream was over, his momentary grief was also gone and replaced by hope. I know I should be happy that he's alright and that he recovers quickly, but in the back of my mind I can't help but feel it was unfair to FL, cuz the blissful dream took away the impact of her death, took away the opportunity for Dylan to show off his acting skill that pierced through my heart like his previous crying scene 🥺. That's why i said it fell short.

is this low-budgeted? I came here because of Dylan, but main characters have taken the term "annoying" to the next level lol. FL is such a bland and wishy-washy girl. The plot doesn't make sense to me, and dialogues are just downright nonsensical and cheesy. The only good thing is the chemistry lol. If you can turn off your brain and put up with massive amount of corny, ridiculous screenwriting and super forced and embarrassing lines that FL spews, then maybe you can enjoy this.

I see. I don't have anything against the duration, and I'm okay with the allotted time for the dream grief, but it tragically lacks impact. My point is that it's not about the duration. It's about the fact that they picked the wrong scene for grief. I mean, suicide by dreaming? C'mon 😆! ML is not Rose from Titanic passing away at old age. They had to use the most blissful way to portray his pain. The idea is more laughable than angsty. I can hardly feel any angst at all.
