Turns out it’s airing on YouTube for free through Huanyu’s official channel:

I love Zhang Nan in costumes and this is the only show Youku’s aired this year that I want to watch so of course it’s region locked🫠 Youku never disappoints in disappointing me.😩

Every time I catch a clip, I’m really ready to scold Youku. Especially considering the crap they pulled when RoaTF was airing with the GMP clips. But on the other hand, low-key about to renew my Youku membership so I can rewatch SJFY again. It really does hit different. 😩 FSF is really a top notch actor and even though they cut PXR in the end, you can sense that the crew at least cared somewhat during filming.

It’s much slower than xianxia, I’ll warn. It might be a good watch after something heavy and sad because it’s quite simple and sweet.

Happy ending. There’s a break-up but it’s not a true breakup.

It’s completely different from the book, a very loose adaptation. The storyline has been simplified but the essence of the book - the female lead being an entrepreneur and the main characters building a relationship together- hasn’t been lost. I read the book and I prefer the overall feeling and themes of the drama.

Communicating, considerate, and cute - still the best couple I’ve seen in 2023. And, just like there are different ways to be a woman, there are also many ways to have a relationship; passion isn’t the only way. It won’t work for everyone’s tastes, but I enjoy seeing diversity in the way relationships are portrayed. Thinking of all the long term healthy couples I’ve witnessed, the ones with decades behind them, most remind me of the relationship Ji Man and Ning Yuxuan are striving towards in RoaTF.

Here to leave some positivity. A video collection MV of sweet moments between NYX and JM:

Me too. I hope she can work with production companies that respect her. This show, JJL, and RoaTF producers really messed up. If the producers had cared about Xiao Ran just a little bit, all three shows would have performed much better than they did.

I went to get the link and it looks like it got deleted…

I saw she posted in super chat too. I guess she’s back in Beijing. Did you see the leaked photo of her from Legend? It’s just her back but the outfit looks good.

Uh…personal preference? Some people don’t like anchovies and some people do. I don’t like house fighting. Seeing women fighting women over a man is such a waste of brilliance to me, but for some viewers it’s a draw. I won’t fight that but I appreciate a show that doesn’t go that route and wanted to highlight the point to other viewers who may also not be into house fighting.

Ngl, I went back to rewatch SJFY after RoaTF finished. Yezi had so much potential. From troublemaking outcast to queen sh*t with a sick husband and baby on the side. My heart still hurts. I can’t help it.😩
And, I just saw it’s been released in Korea as 25 episodes so the hope for the full version is gone now. A lifetime of ramen with no seasoning packets to the producers, editors, and director for how they cut her out.

Happy to see Jun Jiu Ling getting the love it deserves. For those interested, here’s a filter-less clip with the actors’ own voices:

Yeah, she definitely lost a lot of weight. Though she gains weight easily, I think she also loses weight easily if she diets or does high energy activities. I think she’s still training and thus hiding her IP. Otherwise , she should have posted on Weibo after all the fans cries😂

Hahaha,
Her wall is full of fans crying they miss her. She looks good though. I hope her training is going well.

Ugh, I’m so disappointed. I thought this was going to end my drama drought even though I dislike harem fights. I like He Hongshan’s costumes so much and it’s rare to see her as the lead😫
For risky shows like this that have been suppressed for so long , platforms really have to follow the route of The Wolf and just drop it all at once.

It’s sometimes translated as Thrush(like the bird) but I don’t believe it has one yet. There’s a strong chance there may not be an international push for this drama if the platform hasn’t taken into consideration the leads’ foreign appeal.

The new trailer is 5 seconds longer apparently and has more shots of Xiao Ran than the first version.
A reservation is basically just a button to click on to alert you to when the show airs but a lot of platforms use it to judge interest in a show/selling point.
