hollywood is not what it used to be, its better she work in kdramas or K movies for better roles and quality output

this drama deserves much higher rating !

i took me some time warming up to Sun Li as well. but i totally love her performance now

True! there is so much to learn from this series , esp from Man li and Wu Ya. I really love Wu Ya listened to her parents and broke up with Xiao Zhou. It might come across as a very cold decision , It is apparent she had internal conflict with her own decision but realises she needs to make that decision , this is where Man Li lost 10+ years of her life spent on an ungrateful person , the only positive outcome of that bad decision is her Son. what a wonderful son she raised.
In a later episode Man Li reflects on similarities between her and Wu Ya's life trajectory (similarities between her ex husband and Xiao Zhou) and remembers Wu Ya's words on why she broke up with Xiao Zhou)

it would be interesting to watch if Xiao Zhou learns from Man Li on how to lead a better life ..

thanks for the recommendations , will checkout

actually am enjoying the drama. not original story line - but there is something charming about the drama. not a bad drama to watch.

Not a fan of lu yu xiao. I didn't like her in 'My Journey to you' , and couldn't appreciate her as a main lead in perfect match and dropped the drama . for some reason I thought she had a body language of antogonist and not main female lead. but she won me over with this drama. am enjoying her as main lead for the 1st time..

hmm.. interesting start to the drama ... definetely made me go immediately to ep2 .. what the FL's father has done is outrageous, and every reason for ML to misunderstand FL but ML could have explained whatever he wanted to say more politely given their background , and not with disgust ..., I hate what her father attempted , nevertheless i feel very bad for her. .. such a beautiful , talented girl , and smart enough to know she shouldn't force anyone to do anything against their wishes..at this point am Team FL

Man Li is the medicine that Xiao Zhou needs to make him wiser.. if he learns .. Her husband didnt learn anything , though .. and instead started hating on her and her capability . Hope Xiao Zhou turns better

Man Li does more than people deserve for people she considers her own. still she is considered domineering and arrogant by the very people benefitting her. I think her and Wu Ya are similar where it comes to their loved ones , its just Wu Ya's parents made her see reason and got her off the opium called Xiao Zhou. She did all she could for Xiao Zhou, and if he were trying not to self sabotage himself and others and carried himself more wisely , she could have supported him/ but he is too much a noble idealistic idiot that it was pretty much sure he would have dragged her down and some day when she took matters into her hands to better their lives , am sure he would called her domineering and arrogant just like Man Li's ex husband did.. WY and XZ's life trajectory was going same way as Manli and her Ex's .. good that her parents saved her

hmm.. this is the first Sun li drama am watching .... saw few snippets of her dramas here and there , but this one totally captivated me . She is such a brilliant actress - will watch her The Ideal City now..

i dont know but it would be interesting if the writers take the romance route. they have to be very creative to make 2 very different people -who dont match in any way to fall in love , and to convince the audience of its genuinity , .. that would be fun if they could accomplish it..

i didnt think i will like this show. but this will remain one of my favorite shows that I will watch again and again - for sun li... what an actress

xiao zhou seems equally bad , atleast till ep16- no appreciation of her talent , or see that underneath all that supposed arrogant personality lies a warm person who deeply cares about people she meets , even if they are relatives of her scum bag ex . wonder why her niceness is not evident to her colleagues , ex or xiao zhou

Man li is really a super woman - with no great academic credentials , but to rise in such a competitive field , and ace it , what a talented woman!- am surprised there are not enough people on the show who are appreciating her talent or success - her son and father are the only ones who are her genuine admirers . Her Ex , though a doctorate , may have reached pinnacle in his area of study and a rising star in his field , netherthe less he is nothing before her.. if thrown in a desert , she will make kimchi out of cactus and not just survive but create an oasis for people around her. Her ex, will just wither , wont survive even if left near an oasis..

FSF was 44, JT was 34 and Z Y R was 22 when they filmed this .... ZYR falling for JT 12 years his senior ..and FSF and JT has a gap of 10 years .. thanks that it is a good drama that reels you in tightly ..

at this rate only zhuang siyang will survice this drama

consort miao's death - really ! zhuang siyang claimed another smart and noble lady ... i wished till the last moment there will be some way she will be saved.

watching ep24 , that tiny snippet of xiwen made me realise what a fabulous actress she is , and her voice is so surreal-
