Ahaha I see your point & I agree that the production value (CGI) on ALP is superior than LAR & you're right it maybe just a matter of preference.

When it comes to drama, what matters to me the most is the acting & the plot which to me LAR delivered very well even from the get go (while ALP haven't) & more than I expected them to be, while production value in drama is rather not important & just served as a bonus point for me, hence quite explain why I dislike DOTS, tho it maybe consider as one of the most favourable/best kdrama with high production value for many.

Yes & a beautiful one, you can hear the sneakpeak here

Damn, I wish I could binge watch all the episodes!! Another 24 hr to deal with & with only 1 ep in Fri & Sat 🙉

Ep 21-22: Am really happy to finally see Qi Yan's smile with less burden (great acting from Cheng Yi!), why so shortlived.. 😭
I really love the twins, they have their very own charm & wise like their grandfather. I'm rooting for Qi Yan and both twins having HEA at the end, please!

WeTV shd hv translate the written handletters too tho, now I may never know what are those letters meant 😅

Read it somewhere that he hurt his waist too, twice & had to be piggybacking at times, gosh it hurts me to see him in this condition, hoping for him to have a speedy recovery 😢

Oh, back then I started the drama without reading reviews/ watch the trailer, so my assessment was pure coming from the drama only & imho, the drama is totally worth it, their love story are just epic.
Happy watching, hope you'll enjoy it too ^^

Thanks for the input :)

Love and Redemption, that one is excellent xinxia, great acting from ML FL, with a devoted & selfless ML character who raised the bar sky high, strong couple w/ great redemption arc & chemistry (very happy ending too).

Like you, am also new to C drama, rather bored with K drama too, haha.
I've been captivated by Cheng Yi's acting (one of the best actor) upon my discovery on LAR & been following his work since then, am currently watching Stand by Me (airing drama of his).

Only w/ this drama, 2 days waiting feels like a year or even longer to me.
Try a bunch of new dramas but none manage to hold my attention & all the other airing feel bland.

While waiting, am here's to dropping one beautiful sad song from Stand by Me OST

I felt that too, I've been countlessly rewatching LAR (even till these days, lol), & currently am also watching Stand by Me and got obsessed with that one too, Cheng Yi is just amazing, I fell hard on both character he portrayed.
I guess Cheng Yi dramas can only be replaced by his only, because I've tried many other dramas as well but like you said, everything felt bland & I just can't move on, lol.

Sigh, I think I've even watched every trailer, bts, spoiler of SBM, even including South Wind's too, anything just to see these two together onscreen 😂
Can't they just release the ep & their upcoming drama asap, just help this poor soul, please 😂

Yes could be. Ahaha, noted, I'll give Miss the Dragon less priority then 🤣 thanks!

Oh really? So it takes time to warm up then.

Given the 1st two ep, I find this one really boring like nothing is happening, on LAR we hv tournament & such, many interesting character & believable buildment of their relationship & imo better chemistry.
Here, I find the MC interaction rather unorganic since the ML is ice cold but easily change on first two ep only. I cringe when romantic song already happening when MC around, while the FL had daydreaming at the ML that instant 😂

I can only buy Tian Qi character & coming long way from Hao Chen it tells alot how he's a good actor.
The MC however haven't yet caught my attention.

LAR hooked me from the get go & getting stronger by each ep with their strong love, so idk if ALP will be able to come close, but I hope so.

Thank you for the feedbacks ^^

First two ep in:
- beautiful cinematography & amazing cgi
- boring story
- bland FL & ML character
- weak acting
- & I already got a 2nd hand embarassment

Such a dissapointment, LAR is far superior than this.
The only thing I like is Tian Qi character, idk if I shd keep watching.

Seriously, the wait has become unbearable for me, I've even started 3 new dramas just to distract me from all this waiting but I like none of them & might dropping it all .. 🙈 😭

I think the girl you're referring to is A Wu, but would love if you can confirm that too if you happen to rewatch the ep :)

The schedule (with 17th off) has been released before their airing date, so it's nothing like that, besides their viewership count is high on MangoTV and even reached #1 on various site so no need to worry, just keep supporting him & wish him all the best.

WeTV vip on Southeast Asia (Thai, Indo, Philippines)

It confuse me as well since there're two different calendar schedule (1 with 17th off & other with both 17 18th off), I really hope we'll be getting new ep like usual tomorrow #fingerscrossed

But, Xuan Ji also cheated with Hao Chen, so just call it even then 🤣

Lol, it's nothing like that 😅 there's Hunan TV annual music gala on 17 18th Aug and it's already stated on their calendar schedule since the beginning.
