I think surely we will start seeing that shift soon as the previews show Chunsheng will go to the military finally. What I really like so far is the way she is quietly taking care of him. Everyone relies on Chunsheng to solve their problems but no one really helps him but she’s there quietly taking care of him 🥹

I don’t think she’s being wasted…she’s slowly coming into Chunsheng’s life more and more which makes it more natural.🤷‍♀️

Felt so bad for Chunsheng today 🥺 Xiaomei was the only one willing to tell him the truth. But rolling when his father came back to his senses. He was so contrary 😅

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.
