Uhm, yes, but there is still one unresolved situation that they never commented on in the last episodes. And it kind of bothers me, although I guess I will now be severely criticized for my opinion 😅 Remember ep. 3, when SCC came to the company for the job interview organized for her by her elder sister, but was accidentally mistaken for the mysterious beauty TQ saw before, proposed as an ambassador for their new product and made everyone look for? TQ looking at SCC in a state of shock, saying to a colleague 'It's not her!' and then, further worsening the situation, he said something like: 'Do you really think I would have proposed HER as a model?!' I don't remember the exact wording, but for me that scene was more hurtful that the scene with beer and makeup... Even his colleagues looked at him with disapproval. The reason for TQ's words in the beer-and-makeup scene was somehow clear from the beginning: it was obvious he was referring to the poor quality of SCC's makeup products, he just failed to convey his meaning, and the insecure girl thought he was talking of her appearance in general and mocking her. That was indeed an 误会, a misunderstanding. But in the office he was really, really rude. I mean, yes, we all understand that you are feeling disappointed, that the girl you had hoped to see didn't come, and the girl you had hoped to never see again came in her stead, but, man, you really do not have to be so harsh in your expressions. Saying it was a mistake (and saying 'Sorry' to SCC) would have been perfectly enough.

Same here! I really like SCC. Yes, she has made several major mistakes so far (some of them were not even her fault), but even that doesn't change the fact that she is a kind, sincere, caring person who just often gets into problematic situations. I'm sure she will find a way to make everything right. And I really enjoy LLD's acting, she has nailed this role ❤️

Yes, but imagine losing color vision all of a sudden. It's not about not being able to read the traffic lights, it's about the state of shock.

Why do I have a feeling that in the final moments of ep. 12 Tang Qi was finally beginning to realize something...

Depends on what you're looking for. For me personally it's a 10/10.

😁😆😂🤣🤣🤣

I couldn't agree more. Tan Jianci's acting skills are indeed incredible, he literally puts you into this fictional realm and it becomes your reality. And the characters that he portrays -- they all become real living people, virtues, flaws, and all.

I will, thanks for sharing! Maybe I'm being biased myself 😅

Anyway, I hope my opinion will change as I progress in watching the drama: TQ's character is bound to evolve, and I'm sure it will be a spectacular transformation.

TYSM for your comment! You've got a point! But, actually, the fact that TQ perceived SCC's innocent behavior during their school days as bullying, kind of, characterises him too, right? Besides, Su Miao literally physically assaulted him, but somehow he didn't hold a grudge against her for knocking him out and leaving him on the floor of the store room 😂

A lot of people here are commenting on how ML 'did nothing wrong' and is 'criticised for nothing.' I haven't watched today's episodes yet, but judging by eps 1-6, Tang Qi is... well, way too partial. No one forces him to fall in love with FL if she is not his type. No one even forces him to be especially nice to her. Even his occasional rudeness can be excused or at least explained. But allowing his personal preferences affect their work (when he ignored her messages, in which she asked for some data for her project, but responded immediately to a casual text sent by Su Miao) and even his social behavior, -- that's not cool. I felt sorry for the FL when Tang Qi got all agitated because of Su Miao having broken her leg and asked Lin Yuan to take good care of Su Miao, etc., -- while FL was ALSO there, and her leg was ALSO broken... It would have been a mere formality, a sign of politeness to wish her recovery as well, but he didn't do it. And THAT is what makes this character -- at least at this point in his development -- not very attractive, but, I'd say, totally realistic.

Thank you so much for posting this 🙏🏻 I totally share your opinion and really hope that the fandom will support this drama no matter what. It's extremely sad when a great production is downscored by the fans who had hoped for a happily-ever-after, but got disappointed and so decided to express their bitter feelings through low ratings. In some cases, thus lessening the value of all the efforts invested in the project is just sad and unfair. But with Justice in the Dark it would be a plain betrayal. This drama and its crew have gone through so much, so we really must support and cheer them ❤️

Well, this drama is surprisingly addictive! Lovin' it 😍

Well, I'd say it's not unlikely that the ending will be different from the one in the novel. Personally, I somehow prefer sad endings if they are properly motivated and seem more likely than forced happy endings, so this doesn't avert me in any way but even makes me more eager to finally watch the drama. Hopefully there are others like me who won't downscore this masterpiece because they wanted a disneyesque finale.

ur welcome! happy watching :-)

There are supposed to be five major arcs, and the first 8 episodes _kind of_ cover 2 of them (the second arc is _almost_ finished, but, as Noel said, there's not a massive cliffhanger, -- meaning, if you haven't read the novel, you probably won't even perceive there is one). However, if I were you, I would probably still watch the first 8 episodes to see if the drama is for you and is worth the wait.

- So, how many times have you rewatched this?
Me: Yes.
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻

Thanks a lot for an elaborate explanation 🙏🏻 I am getting the connection now, thanks to your comment.

Hi, guys! So sorry if this question has already been asked and replied to earlier, but I don't get how exactly is this drama related to 'Ancient Love Poetry'?

Yes. Yes. YEEEEEEEEEEEEES! Please let this be true 🙏🏻
