he had a lover who waited for him for 3 years but died in an accident and now is slowly falling for the FL? no grief process time? i know this is a twisted series but i feel bad for his late lover
Drake is trash. Alys might be dramatic and clumsy but at least she’s nice. Tripp seems to be a great guy and is inevitably falling for Alys. Their chemistry is more natural and believable. Can we throw drake out of the equation and make it a tripp x alys story. Drake doesn’t seem to appreciate what he has. Dumb airhead.
In the preview, she comes for a date and he asks “why are you here” for the nth freaking time. Is she your girlfriend or arch enemy you idiot. And the noob is a big yikes nickname
Ngl as much as I love their relationship, I kinda feel bummed out by how Yan Chi said he doesn’t want a lady who lives in the inner chambers, applies makeup, and relies on him. That’s basically most of the ladies of that era, it’s not their fault, it’s deep rooted patriarchy. Even if they wanted to get out and make a name for themselves, they’ll be shunned or face so many obstacles. It’s not easy to accept being social rejected.
Shen wan is also indirectly implying I’m not like other girls by saying she’s not gentle, virtuous, or a noble lady. She is in fact gentle, with her love and affection while being fierce when it matters, she’s so virtuous, and more noble. These words are usually implied in cdramas as women who are doormats and just let their husband or family do whatever they want but I wish Shen Wan gave a different aspect to it.
I loved how after the first case was solved, Shen Wen corrected that it’s not about the gender when Yue Ning said women should just stay single as men are so fickle since Song Rou died trusting the man she loved. I hope the keep such progressive thoughts in mind.
The author of the novel but be so awesome to create such a properly paced green flag relationship. Slay to the cast and crew for bring this story to life too!!
I loved how Yan Chi didn’t say he fell in love with her first sight. He told her exactly how a good relationship actually forms. She definitely caught his eye at first, he admired her, respected her, he came to trust her, and then he fell in love. It’s so natural. He had a crush on her for the person she is, trusted her as an accomplice and trusted her judgments, kinda knew her past and what she went through, and then fell in love with the whole of her. Plus he clearly communicated his thoughts and feelings. That’s exactly how it should be, a love built on admiration, respect, vulnerability and trust
Then people would call it a filler ep. I get you but I love the balance. I want them to be so in love while not…
Rightt but also, she’s in danger most of the time bc she’s still vulnerable while solving cases, she isn’t Yan Chi who can command troops or Yue Ning who can fight fiercely but Shen Wan wants to get to the bottom of things always so it’s inevitable that’s she’s in so much danger
Shen Wan was jelly and asked Yan Chi about where he was at but once Yan Chi explained, she said sorry and turned it into a light hearted lovely conversation. he cleared the misunderstanding as well. I love how this couple screams green flags, and are so mature in their communication. No matter what stage of relationship they’re in, they command respect and deep love for each other
“I treat you as my brother so I wouldn’t let anyone insult or mess with you. I see her as my wife for life, I wouldn’t let anyone insult or mess with her.
NOT even you!” 👏👏
YAN CHI THE MAN THAT YOU ARE OMGG
Like he stood up for her against his cousin even if it was just a joke. I’ve seen people put their kin before the woman they love irl and damn this was so refreshing. He didn’t sit by, let it slide as a joke but clearly drew the line. No one messes with his people, and Shen Wan is his person, his ‘wife’ now omg ❤️
Why can't there be a single episode where Wan'Er isn't in danger and they end the episodes with her life hanging…
Then people would call it a filler ep. I get you but I love the balance. I want them to be so in love while not forgetting the show’s other aspect, solving cases together too
For SML, i don't think it's a problem. Seems there is another woman for him. He will very soon forget FL, or ven…
I'm talking about his kid. SML will be fine but he shouldn't have given his kid hope or call someone "mommy" knowing there's nothing going on between them yet
Would've been better if ML & SFL were a fake couple before, but now the ML is just an insensitive jerk, cheater, and the FL is a two-faced homewrecker. Big ewws. The SML is crazy for giving his son hope by making that little kid call FL, "mom", while SML knows that something is going on between ML and FL. So sad, this drama has awful characters.
Now, really, isn't this just the same, but reversed, in pretty much every other K- and C-drama?The male lead is…
When it's reversed, it's usually the FL with an ex who cheated or FL hanging out with SML (being overly nice) or being forced by family, but here, it's clear that the ML wasn't ambiguous with SFL and it was his own decision to date and choose to marry her. He made her his fiancée (a big big decision) and just treated her like she was invisible the moment he met FL again.
It's not about the genders, I'd call out anyone for being such a douchebag under the guise of love
FL didn't date for 10 years and waited around because of a 10-year pact until which she wouldn't get with the ML, as his mom had asked her to stay away from her son, the ML, and work for their company, offering to pay FL's mom's hospital bills.
FL didn't have any other man in her life while ML went sleeping around and dating while still not getting fully over FL. He proposed to SFL abroad, and when they came back, he stopped getting intimate with SFL (SFL mentions this) after seeing FL. FL gets drunk, cries, and asks him how many women he has slept with while she barely had a love life. ML dumps SFL and then runs after FL. How disgusting. He's a cheater. A total jerk. Yea, FL and ML broke up under weird circumstances, but ML shouldn't have toyed with SFL or the feelings of other women he has been with over the course of a decade.
I just want FL to move on with another man and ML to just leave. Oh well, they kissed in the recent ep on the every night of his sudden break-up with his fiancée, SFL. Eww. They're just red flags

She’s so level headed, mature, grieving, loving, all while not forgetting her purpose and carrying a deep scar in her heart.
QUEEN FR 😭
