and re-watched again. I can’t get tired of “tan tai Jin “ and “ye xi wu”. absolutely not going tired of just that name being spoken by our FL. torture - but the best.
IDK about the father but she was not a girlfriend but just a friend who his brother thought of otherwise.... he…
ah, true, thank you! So I guess his brother wanted to keep his one girl friend when he had the discussion with him for the sake of getting along with her and being friends. makes sense, thinking about the scenes you mentioned. Thanks again! :-)
maybe someone can help me out please? yes, I was crying most of ep 15 and 16 but: why did his dad suddenly seemed like he heard the comments of his former band in ep 16? Was (I don’t want to mix up names) the girl who traveled back not the girlfriend of ML brother in 2023? and ML tried to break them up for the sake of studying? what now? and if her future changed, then where was she until she came back at the exact day of that concert? overall I really enjoyed this drama and dragged it on myself to finish because I didn’t wanted it to be finished ;-)
I haven’t watched much but I surely agree that we are having massive 2nd ML Syndrom so far.(don’t know if he gets around trying to kill her in the end). also agree: mom and grandmom have way too much screen time. ML is just there as a pet or something. again, I agree: FL behavior of a 13 year old. as someone stated already: it doesn’t matter where you grew up (ok- leave war parts in war and complete poverty out), you shouldn’t behave like a child and this is what is happening here but also gives the whole show at least a very little bit of charm. whoever saw strong women dong will immediately downgrade this show. me included. but I am trying to see it completely unrelated. so far: behaviors =cringe songs = cringe couple feeling= cringedevelopment of all characters=cringerealness = not given (I know it’s fantasy but could you please protect yourselves at least once?!)storyline = actually Interesting for meacting=good I think. they all do what they need to do. really don’t know why I am watching this when I am bored instead of searching for stuff I would like more but hey! that’s the beauty here. we can find so many dramas we actually like by searching on tags etc.
episode 7. how did they cloth mom and grandmom in pink and made mom later on wear lime green to match red hair? though, the hair colour seemed a lot darker than before. and yes, that was my take of that episode ^^ red hair with mismatching cloth colors.
I'm glad you decide to keep continue watching this drama. Yes, it's the best so far!!!😆
I agree! what a surprise! I am really blown away on how good these 5 first episodes have been. I will try to squeeze in the next episode in my lunch break ^^
Romance is already starting bit by bit...! 😍 Yes you're right, this is a mature story of people achieving their…
absolutely right! I am so glad I have picked this up (by accident while reading a review on another airing c-drama which I was exited about but truly is a let down atm.) .
i have just finished episode 5 and so far: this is the best c-drama, matured - no college / school stuff, history or Fantasy- I have seen in 2023!!! comments below are positive so I will continue watching this. no romance,yet but really liking the acting and OST.
You should check out Rising with the Wind with Simon Gong and Elaine Zhong. I found it more enjoyable than this…
glad I saw that review and the comments. „rising with the wind“ is indeed so much more interesting after watching „only for love“ for 8 episodes . I am quite frustrated because I absolutely adore Bai Lu and it feels that her normal acting was put behind bars and never to be released again (in those 8 eps.). thank u all! but also, because of this review I started watching „only for love“ - I thought to myself „naaaah, can’t be bad“. well … ;-)
i was so excited about this drama. I absolutely adore our FL. and then I watched 8 episodes on ff…. everything takes at least 10 more seconds than it should have. really, every action - let it be drinking, looking at the phone, polishing eyeglasses … everything. maybe the director wanted all to be more esthetic but for me this became really boring. sad to say that I will drop this now and only watch as a filler.
i liked this one. the most none toxic, Mutual and healthy relationship which I was seeing within years!
unlimalety I wasn’t going to watch because I only completed one drama with the ML and found him very stiff and unnatural. but in this drama it’s like a complete other person. I really loved his „hmm?“ , „yes“, and „silent laughters.
The FL is great as well! if you get past her forced „I am doing everything for the client“ first episodes then you will really like her.
Insaw comments which were outrages with the evil SFL but honestly - this is absolutely nothing on what writers did come up in other dramas.
The ex from FL had no purpose at all. I don’t really understand why he was there in the first place. he appeared - tried to seduce/get back with FL, got caught and then disappeared. all within 2 or 3 episodes. (Not telling you what he tried or how to avoid spoilers).
second couple was hot! I really like the actress! kudos!!!!!
a pitty is to not know if the third couple ever got back together :-/
Also, ML mom who was present a lot was nowhere to be seen in the last moments.
all in all, I would recommend it to watch if you want a light, fluffy, mature and healthy couple drama. btw. their kisses are hot 🔥;-)
When i first came here the first time i really thought that the airing date was wrong and this could not end in…
well, I don’t think it was the actors deciding this. Thinking positively- maybe this is also a good thing to keeping watchers on their toes. ultimately- no one’s fault but the channel itself because they have to air that sport shows. *BUT* to decide once a week is a bad move already. so, the schedule is actually once a week (if we haven’t being interrupted with sports).
Please feel absolutely free to watch it in January. I wanted to do that myself but stupidly watched 1st,2nd,3rd and now 4th episode and I really want to stop watching it before it is finished , so now I am addicted 😭
oh gosh, why? I am having an earworm of that song and I actually muted it sometimes within the episodes because I don’t really like it and now I am humming it!!!!! aaaaargh!!!!
anyways- rewatchable? for me, no. was it interesting? - yes! was it confusing - for me yes. I even mapped it out for myself to get who is who. and one plot hole I still can not figure out. chemistry? - yes. happy ending? - yes, kind of. let your imaginary play. better than the OG? - I can’t tell. I only found the OG in very bad quality. almost not watchable so I skipped it for this one. love triangle? - not really. SML (whom I really want to hug) steps out very fast for still being a friend for MC. realistic of fiction? - actually I found the behavior of all and even the story very, very realistic.
overall my suggestion is to watch it! for myself, I won’t rewatch this ever again because it is too much for me. It is a drama about a very depressed girl and in the mids you will forget that fact but it will haunt you back in the end of the story. I absolutely fell with the girl and if you follow the first episodes you will recognize that. what broke me was when she was herself and everyone asked her why is is back to her former selfe. :,(
again, absolutely recommend it but everyone who takes depression to heart should stay away of it because her “cure” sentence said by the older FL is not a cure at all!
Are you talking about A good Day to be a Dog? The airing schedule for that is wild.
hahahaha, exactly, that one! and yes, super wild! so I just hope to not cross another drama with such a weird and wild schedule. I am so dissapointed in myself by thinking “hey, let’s just have a peek into it” - bam- disaster.
usually I wait until all is aired before watching but lately I started watching more c-dramas because they are finished a lot faster and I am somehow bored and can’t find something I want to watch.
For this one, I am intrigued though, a lot of past life k-dramas have been aired. (ok,ok,to be fair, I only know of 3 currently from the last months). ;-)
