I should have watched a s1 recap. I appreciate the tiny one at the beginning of Ep1 but they barely scratched the surface. Hard to jump back into political maneuvering...
I thought it was odd they released two Xu Kai dramas that looked similarly flavored so close together. Also, definitely just my opinion, I felt he looked miserable in the promo stills for BCE.
Watched this after Hidden Love and was worried about connecting with Chen Zhe Yuan. I needn't have worried because he absolutely carried this! Not that everyone was bad, he was just that good!
When I read the description it reminded me of Jun Jiu Ling so I was pleased to see it in the recommendations! I really liked that story so I will definitely have to give The Double a go soon.
I do have some criticisms but overall really enjoyed this! Definitely a solid 8 but I'm going to bump it up to 8.5 just for the sheer fun of it and best use of music.
2FL one of the most toxic characters ever? Are you serious? Did we watch the same show? And if she was toxic,…
Not interested in Penthouse because it just looked like a dramafest. Lol!
But yes I think a woman that cheated, then ran off with the other man to another country with like no warning, then coming back and declaring she wants to get together but only sorta, then is enraged to find out her safety backup boyfriend has feelings for someone else (*who could blame him cuz it isnt like she considered his feelings ever and she JUST got back*). Then she used the feelings of her latest ex to try to leave again only she chickened out AGAIN! she only came back to her main because she had no one and then she was pregnant which she ruined by not taking care of herself or the baby at all.
I get that she had self esteem issues but it doesnt make it ok to make everyone around you miserable and expect them to understand.
ML is the sweetest! He adores her and wants to keep her close because she is pure sunshine to him but he is terrified of frightening her. In the end it makes him a cute buffoon or dark, broody, sexy, babygirl 😀
