He's not managed by anyone. He has his own studio and is the executive producer of this drama. Perhaps he chooses to work with ppl he's familiar with.

Is she another vying for ML again?

This was already filmed so it's not like they film as we watch. There are too many jealous whiny ppl in this one. Women mostly, and one stalker dude.

I'm on 22 starting tomorrow and I legit fast forward through all of Xue Ling's scenes especially with his mom or her dad. Please tell me it gets better at 30!

So 14 episodes of all enemies and rivals happy and then the equally cliche getting back together in 45?

Does anyone else fast forward through Xue Ling scenes? I'm on 22 and I can't deal with her crazy ass anymore.

Congratulations on publishing! That's an amazing achievement! I've only published one book and it's poetry but I do other genres too and they are copyrighted for now. Currently working on a historical fiction. I'm the same way with American dramas. I stopped watching all but 911 which is on a winter hiatus anyways lol. It is the cultural thing but also the old school factor that we just don't see in dramas or series anymore anywhere not just the states. You should try writing your love story. Never say you're not good at something until you try. :) Thank you for the compliments.

It's cdramas, I'm on episode 13 and they've already used several cliches lol. I can't imagine to 45 what it'll be. The entire thing ends April 8th so we only have like a week left. I'm hoping for a miracle where all the creepers get their comeuppance at the same time with one giant hurrah! Wishful thinking I know lol.

May I ask if anyone here is over 35 years old, knows 80s tv, and can tell me if this series gives off "The Thorn Birds" vibes? Only those folks will understand the reference.

Slow burn romance is better then no burn. Or burn out.

Haven't even reached the 20s in episodes. Can I be a spectator? I love spoilers so please spoil away! :)

I love LOVE your assessments on these shows. So awesome! I've never gotten into KDramas, don't know why. Started very randomly with cdramas back in November of 2019 with Princess Agents and followed Zhao Liying into this rabbit hole. CQL is still my favorite costume drama as that thing deserves at least one Oscar, but I also love Pillow Book (speaking of hot men, Vengo Gao is one fine chunk of change), and modern dramas thus far I only really like Boss and Me and Gank Your Heart. I really want to see Oath of Love, but I think that's a majority of ppl. I usually watch for actors I follow as there's a plethora but once in a blue moon it's the plot that fascinates me here. Ironically I'm all for plot and character development when I write my novels so I'm really tough on the scriptwriters in my reviews if the thing bombs with plot and/or character development. But an attractive man does go a long way as long as his character can grow appropriately too.

I do actually like them. I have just taken a break from them for a while after watching three in rapid succession (The Wolf, Legend of Fei, and Duolou Continent). I'll watch this then "You are my hero" don't know any of the actors but the plot looks interesting and return to costume dramas with "The Long Ballad" as that's premiered today. I'll have to check out "The Four", thank you for the recommendation!

LMAO! He seems to have gotten the short end of the stick in this drama with all these idiot characters. Quality for Boss and Me is poor because it's back from 2014 I believe. FL here has grated on my nerves since day one. She's brilliant as a designer but dumb as rocks everywhere else and apparently was born without hormones lol.

You both should watch "Boss & Me" if you haven't already. He's the best there plus the FL is Zhao Liying and that's never a loss. I think it's literally his best work on modern dramas. I'm only watching because of him and only on episode 13 so I have a feeling I will be smacking a lot of these characters with chairs before it's all over. I do hope it's a happy ending though. I do skip a lot too. Hate whiny women and sleazy men. I love how you guys said it went from a love quad to a pentagon; guess that's better then a pentagram lol! These extra morons need to exit stage left ASAP!

Premiering the 31st according to Tencent.

Lol I'm taking a break but will watch tomorrow. I heard the sister of SML returned on her own volition. And to think there's 45 episodes. How many times will they break up and make up? And other shit lol.

I do hope SML and SFL get exposed as I think they were the ones who sabotaged FL's dress in the competition. Plus hope ML learns that SML took FL to see his mom and told her all that stuff. Seems that SFL is one obsessed person which makes her the perfect combo for SML, equally crazy.

Thanks so much. I really do want to hit them with chairs though. Lol

I'm on episode 12, can someone plz tell me when these two finally reveal their feelings to each other and let that biz partner chick know and what not? Like I'm ready to hit them both with a chair.
