i only watched the first episode of EF and it has the same rom com, fluffy light romance feel as In A class of her own so you might like that one too

i rated it 8/10 but it wasnt for SWL i don’t think i would have liked it as much / rated it so high probably a 7/10 bc it was entertaining enough

its a cute fluffy light romance historical drama to watch in between dramas and the plot and story was interesting throughout the drama.
JJY’s acting is meh and it came out a long time ago (2020) so depends if thats your cup of tea!

I’m watching this for SWL

i didnt realize SWL & JJY was acting together again in this

i just watched their older drama together (In a Class of her own) not too long ago! I feel like main leads rarely act together again especially for same genre (both historical dramas) so i wasn’t expecting this

who the heck randomly has a small parachute handy in their room?!?! (ep 16)

i saw a comment online on a clip of Ye Li (Bai Lu) looking at the camera while talking to Qing Shuang

they called her “modern day dora the explorer” and lol’d

if this was real life…. he should be jailed for stalking LOL
literally following her on a quiet street in a car 3 meters behind her …. 😂💀

why is shit always going down in this drama 😭😭😭😭

only 24 episodes???? im not used to such a short full length costume drama 🥲

i know but its listed here that its on iqiyi but its not

i already pay for a subscription bc i like the convenience, high quality, quick release time & supporting the actors 🥲

i can’t find it on my iqiyi (canada) 🥲 why?

i missed these chaotic plot twists so much 😂😂😂😂 i died watching ep 1

this drama got me searching on google “what is traditional ink made of and is it edible”
I WAS SO FREAKING CONCERNED

Why did they eat the ink?!?! they fully put the ink brush in their mouth to test it????? wtf is going on LOL

I don’t know when The Oath of Love (2022) was filmed (before or after she left HR) but she ruined the drama for me. i watched it for Xiao Zhan & would’ve rated it higher if it wasnt for Yangzi 😔 but i def see her growth in more recent dramas

i absolutely hated her in airheaded roles … and she had so many of those roles in the past. flourished peony changed my opinion of her. i think this drama deserves at least 8-8.5 at least from the first few eps. we’ll see!

whys this rated so low? the first 6 episodes are pretty interesting so far!
it’s not a romance (-heavy) drama so don’t expect it if you plan to watch this drama.

i actually have prejudice for the main FL actress from her previous work but her acting has become less annoying recently. im glad she’s taking more mature roles with more depth. i watch a lot of cdramas and this cured the recent decent/good cdrama release drought for me so far!

stopped watching this drama at ep 33
im coming back to comment after a year bc i started another drama with the same FL actress.

when i watched this drama, there were so many negative comments about her which i brushed off bc maybe it was just 1 role or unnecessary hate. I started watching her older drama “Find Yourself” (with Song Wei Long) and honestly most of her roles are a mix of bad acting & terrible script; bc she’s been getting so much hate for that role too…. every role she takes everyone is ‘annoyed/fustrated at the FL’

i’m literally only watching her dramas for the ML’s at this point but she’s the reason i drop them in the end… sigh

one more comment
why does every evil character have a comeback era in this drama
it felt like propaganda to push people to be a good person / samaritan 🥲 i just wished karma took its course on those people and left it at that lol

this drama is actually such a hidden gem
finished 40 episodes in 3 days

only complaints (?)… i rarely get angry at characters from dramas… but the amount of times i wished the evil mom would just die off…. was a bit too high lol

and the character building just for shit to hit the fan every single time 😭😭😭😭

rating this drama a 9/10. romance and action keeping me on my toes the full 40 episodes. highly recommended!

ok i read online that it might be LHC’s preference or in her contract

i don’t hate the drama bc of it but definitely the missing piece to this drama … especially for a drama called “passionately in love” but no passion 😅

is there a reason why they cut all the kissing scenes? :/
