Why would I want to watch 20 episodes of pure nonsense with absolutely no romance whatsoever, where the male lead turns out to be a serial killer and an evil character? What a stupid show. Awful.
Why are they ALL men??? Are there no female villains? Are female villains not worthy? Does this post show signs of discrimination or is it simply an injustice where women don't get the luxury of triggering second lead syndrome? Outrageous.
season one and two was good, but I dropped this season
Why? Because in this season she pursues him instead and that she has to compete with another female character for his attention? Because that's really the only difference.
I'm really confused about the timelines in Season 2 and I was hoping someone could explain this to me.
As I understand it, there seem to be two different timelines/parallel realities. In the first one, which is essentially what we see in Season 1, Xiao Tan travels to the past, meets Mo Lian Cheng, they fall in love, and eventually she returns to the modern world. At the end of Season 1, Lian Cheng follows her into the modern world, and we see them together, so presumably they are happily continuing their relationship there.
But then Season 2 seems to follow a different timeline. Lian Cheng also comes through the vortex into the modern world, but he arrives roughly a year before Xiao Tan originally travelled back to the past. He spends that time searching for her and eventually finds a version of Xiao Tan who doesn't know him or remember anything about their relationship.
This is where I'm confused. If Lian Cheng and the Xiao Tan from Season 1 both entered the vortex together, and Lian Cheng ended up in the modern world at an earlier point in time and then found a different/earlier version of Xiao Tan, what happened to the original Xiao Tan from Season 1 who entered the vortex with him?
I understand that the Xiao Tan in Season 2 may be a different version of her from the parallel timeline, but then where did the original Xiao Tan from Season 1 end up in that second timeline? Did she go somewhere else in time or space, or is this simply something the drama never explains?
Basically, I'm trying to understand whether Season 1 and Season 2 are actually following two separate timelines that split around the end of Season 1, and if so, what happened to each version of Xiao Tan after the vortex. Because the ending of Season 1 shows Xiao Tan and Lian Cheng together in the modern world, whereas Season 2 starts with Lian Cheng searching for a Xiao Tan who doesn't even know who he is. Am I understanding the timeline correctly, or have I misunderstood something?
This is bullshit. This has nothing to do with her. She didn't even know about her family's past history, her grandfather's history, and all that. Maybe she was simply told that her great grandfather or whoever was a brilliant doctor, and that's it.
Why would she go on a reality show and brag about her family history if she actually knew about the bad things they had done? She wouldn't have done that if she was aware of it.
I just want to see more of her. She's very good, and I loved her in My Sticky Love. I don't care about all that other nonsense. I just want to see her in more dramas.
Overall, the drama was pretty good. It sort of felt like it had two halves. The first half focused more on the ghosts, with the typical case-solving stories where the ghost helps the main characters solve a case so they can finally move on. Then the second half shifted more towards the corruption, the family, and the dynamics between them. There wasn’t much ghost involvement in the second half, which was fine. I don’t think it necessarily has to be one or the other, it can be a mixture, like it was here.
Although, I did hope the male lead would have more visions of the ghosts, like he did in the first half. When he touched the female lead’s hands, he was able to see ghosts, and I thought they were going to develop that more and show the two of them working together with that ability. I felt like that storyline had a lot of potential, so it was a little disappointing that it didn’t really progress much.
As for the romance, it was okay. I just thought it could have been a bit better. It didn’t give me quite enough romance, but it was still good enough to keep me interested and make me want to finish the show. In the end, I finished it feeling happy and satisfied with how everything turned out, so overall, I’d say it was a pretty good drama.
So, I'm on episode 11, but where are all the ghosts? I haven't seen any since halfway through the drama. It's like a different show. Where's the Spooky gone?
Garbage. Well, very good up until episode 30, then garbage. Just too many lies, misunderstandings, and conflict/angst. We already went through all that in the first half of the drama, and then they make us go through it all again. Rubbish. Beautiful leads, good chemistry, just awful writing ruined it.
She thought the reason he didn't want to study abroad was bcs of her so she decided to do that to make him go
Not dating another guy doesn't disqualify it from being a love triangle. By definition, a love triangle is a situation in which two people both love a third person, regardless of whether that third person has feelings for one or both people. The show also emphasises the interactions between the FL and SML. It's a love triangle.
