I am currently watching this on HBO Max (U.S.) fully subbed with English subtitles. I am on episode 15 and really loving the storyline and all the characters. The actors and costumes are beautiful and so far, I am excited for each new episode. Looking at other reviews on this page, it seems like there may have been problems on HBO Max with subtitles, but it seems perfectly fine so far so maybe those issues have been corrected. I am totally shocked that there aren’t more viewers, and much better ratings. I will add comments as I get further into the drama (“Legacy”).
I just finished watching ”Blossoms In Adversity” with Zhang Jing Yi and it is amazing! I am already re-watching it. You should check it out if you haven’t already. 10/10
Good drama with realistic relationships and situations. Main leads had good chemistry. The Actors all did a great job and I liked the range of family involvement from the younger siblings to the grandparents and friends. There were some very sad moments, but overcome by good moments. Definitely worth watching and I would watch again. I rated this drama (“Will Love In Spring”) 8.5. PS watch past the credits of last episode for a little added surprise ending.
Seriously wished they had casted just about anyone else for the ML. He was so stoic and cringe in his acting.…
I really don’t understand some of these negative comments. I thought the male lead was perfect and amazing— Seriously! And that definitely includes the female lead! I really love this drama overall. I’ve added it to my list of favorites and I know I’m going to be re-watching this one—More than once. I rated “Blossoms In Adversity” 10 /10.
Awesome drama! “Winter Begonia” is such an intriguing and fascinating drama. I am so impressed! I learned so much about that era in China (1930’s) and about Chinese (Peking) Opera that I would never have expected to like before. Such a surprise with a great storyline, actors and directing. I already miss this drama and I have started to rewatch again! 👍
How is the bromance compared to the romance?? The tag says soulmates. The soulmates are CFT and SHR right?? Then…
While the two main male leads definitely develop a very strong friendship, they become true soulmates and there was never any (b)romance between them (although you wonder sometimes)—only great respect and strong brotherly affection. I have added “Winter Begonia” to my list of Favorite dramas and I have already started rewatching it again.
I usually love Chinese Bromance, and watched a bunch. This one is also highly recommended so I decided to give…
It takes a couple of episodes to realize what’s going on and really get into it— at least it did for me. But I have to say, the quirky, funny lead was so good. It’s all about integrity and soulmates. It opened a new world for me. I finished 49 episodes and I miss it already so I’ve started to rewatch it again.
I stopped at 10 episodes. I like time travel and historical dramas a lot, and there were really good well-known actors so I was hopeful. It started out pretty good for a few episodes and then went downhill with a slow, boring and somewhat confusing plot. I really wanted to finish but just couldn’t get to the last two episodes. Not sure why/what went wrong but I’m sadly moving on to something else. BTW I just finished watching 49 episodes of “Winter Begonia” (cdrama set in the 1930’s) and I highly recommend it. It was thoroughly fascinating and I’ve already started rewatching it again! (not time travel.)
This was a really good xianxia drama. The story and actors were interesting and fun.. Even at the length of 40 episodes, it kept me entertained all the way through. I already liked the actors from other dramas and they didn’t disappoint. I can’t wait to see more of their upcoming shows. I watched this on Viki and I have to say that I am Very much impressed And pleased that they finally waited until after the last episode to show all their credits. I really appreciated that. Thank you. The translations were very well done.
Cute drama. I watched it years ago and felt the same. It’s short and it was fun to watch again. The only disappointment for me is that I watched it on Viki, and they are still ruining the last episode of all their dramas by displaying Subtitle credits across the screen (also throughout the show) and ruining the mood of the endings because it is very distracting. It doesn’t look like they are ever going to change, so every chance I get I watch it on a different channel/streaming service if possible (even though I have a paid subscription). Sorry to say, but it’s true.
