The restaurant thing made me so MAD. Like you’re supposed to be his best friend and you’re just being spiteful. Chunsheng deserves better 😒

If you go near the top of the page it will tell you when the next episode airs in your own time zone. But it should be 7:30 pm China standard time. In my time zone it’s 5:30 am

I love him in costume as well. But he would look so good in republican era. He would look good in a garbage bag 🤷‍♀️

Lol I dig the republican styling. It’s the boots, I reckon. Would love XZ do do a republican era dram.

I think AMA was set in the 1910s. Honestly, China in the 20th century was just mental all around so much change and war and lawlessness. Just wild.

My understanding is that Mao was starting to lose influence and other people wanted to be a bit more “progressive” so he roused the rabble against intellectuals and bourgeois that were “infecting” the country. Like hundreds of thousands of people were killed in all of the ensuing events. “ In 1981, the CCP declared and acknowledged that the Cultural Revolution was wrong and was "responsible for the most severe setback and the heaviest losses suffered by the people, the country, and the party since the founding of the People's Republic."

I was actually reading about that yesterday 😅I only had a vague understanding of the CR before and wow the atrocities committed 😳 What a terrible time period.

Them all wearing similar clothes, I feel like it promotes the ideology of everyone being equal or the same. How terribly boring 😬 Still, Zhan Zhan manages to look good in that silly hat 😅

I’m Canadian and the only 70s history I remember is the FLQ crisis. Was reading about the Cultural Revolution yesterday and dang…Mao Zedong was legit the worst thing to happen to China and the Chinese people.

Felt like Xiaomei was more active in eps 5-6 today.

I feel like the set where HHL is playing the violin in the classroom was Bai Lu’s characters Beijing home in AMA 😅

The vibes of this drama really remind me of Dr. Zhivago 😅 not the story line but the narration, BGM and exterior shots all against a communist backdrop 🤷‍♀️ I like it anyways. Looking forward to seeing how Tong Xiaomei and Xiao Chunsheng wind up together 🫣HHL can go now

Watched the first two eps so far. XCS is cute, a bit of a rogue. Looking forward to see where this will go. Just so happy it’s finally here 🥹

That was my understanding of the situation. Just a stupid misunderstanding ☹️

Well, that was rude 🥲

Also haven’t finished ep 21 but I’m so mad at Ye Xiwu-no matter your personal feelings you have a mission you are trying to accomplish! I don’t think Tantai Jin was wrong in the actions he took.

I think Bai Lu can carry the makeup. I don’t think she’s wearing anymore than Pian Ran actress. Chen Du Ling cannot carry all that make up tho. No hate, everyone has different skin and makeup sits differently on everyone 🤷‍♀️

It’s more the way Tian Huan killed her family-she was just doing it to punish Sang Jie for stealing Ming Ye from her (tho he was never here to begin with). At the beginning of the drama the two of them don’t know each other and he’s just the big bad and they (Immortal Sects)were in his way. It’s not the same feeling IMO- it’s not a personal grudge 🤷‍♀️

I’m honestly enjoying this dream arc because of all the links to things we have already seen 🙂 and the visuals are so amazing like in the fight between Ming Ye and the Devil God 🤩
