Title The Last Princess
A prestigious family or a predigested family? One is definitely better than the other!

Title A Piece of Your Mind Spoiler
I'm at ep 7 and from ep 3 nothing really happened. I'm not even sure if I want to know whar the secret is. Should…
No. It's not really a binge kind of drama (although I did) so come back to it another day.

Title A Piece of Your Mind
This is not the drama I thought it would be. Somewhere, I'd gotten the idea that this was a creepy techno kind of drama and instead, it was full of love and grief and found family. I didn't see a single character that needed cutting or a plot point that didn't make sense. And while the romance was fairly hands off, when the leads hugged or kissed - they totally made you believe they loved each other. Such a good story!

Title Ancient Detective Spoiler
Considering the reveal at the end, I doubt there will be a season 2. But yeah, the show was awesome! Everything…
The reveal of the killer or of the mysterious person in the Forest? I think both of those are potentially clues to a second season but the show didn’t do well in China at all so I doubt it. youTuber Avenue X has some comments on it: https://youtu.be/ItWn75MO5KE

Title Chef Hua
It's eleven o'clock at night and I just finished the noodle-making episode - gosh, I'm hungry.

Title Our Little Secret
Hmm, I'd like to see Han Dong as a lead again . . .
On Ancient Detective • Jun 15, 2020
Title Ancient Detective
A pleasant surprise - along the lines of an Agatha Christie "Then there will be none" mystery - wrapped up in a wuxia storyline. I really enjoyed this and will hope for a second season. I've read problematic things about both this drama's reception in China and of the relationship between the screenwriter and the director but - it'll be in my dramaland prayers!

Love those ears!

Title Lost Romance
I love dramas and novels where people discover they are part of a novel!

Title Castle in the Time
This is the book synopsis: An encounter that brings a paleontology student together with an established actor…
Except that in the novel, it starts after her father's death. She hasn't seen her mother her entire life and she only goes to to borrow some money for her senior year's tuition Her mom didn't care enough to contribute anything to pay for her father's treatment and final death from liver cancer. She meets the actor in passing - in fact, I'm a quarter of the way through the novel and he's not the lead yet at all.
On Miss Truth • May 27, 2020
Title Miss Truth Spoiler
I went back and watched the last few episodes again (they had iffy subtitles the first time) and I'm wondering how they plan on another season? Is this pursuit from beyond the grave by Su Fu part of the novel? Also, wouldn't it be easier for the Emperor to keep Xiao Song happier in order to keep him working for him? An unhappy Xiao Song is like keeping a loaded and cocked pistol at your side . . . Otherwise, I liked how the stories wove together and how the different characters developed. It had the feel of a real mystery - not just an idol drama with mystery wrapping paper. I really didn't find it boring at all!
On Dr. Cutie • May 26, 2020
Title Dr. Cutie
I don't know why I put off finishing this drama for so long - it just really had a giant dragging hole in the middle. Even more than most Chinese dramas! It could have easily been a 20 or even 24 episode show. I did enjoy the endings, though, especially how the FL didn't immediately forgive everyone. Give people some time to recoup! So silly and lightweight cross-dressing romance plus unexpected revenge twists.

Title Dr. Cutie
Mixed feelings after finishing it. In general quite enjoyable series with cute laughs and great OST and ML's costumes.…
I'd say yes to every point here except - I found the FL extremely cute. However, on levels of attractiveness, all main characters were way out of everyday life good looking!
On Extraordinary You • May 24, 2020
Title Extraordinary You Spoiler
I think I need a refresher on the young character of Baek Kyung's half brother - the one who is always trying to make him happy. Is he also a character in the Palace drama portion? I saw the Dried Squid Fairy there but I'm not sure where the "brother" was.

Person Jin Yuan Yuan
I was surprised to see how many of her dramas I liked. I guess I'll keep an eye out for them now.

Title Honey, Don't Run Away Spoiler
OK, he found the crystal, opened the coffin, saw himself & "himself" opened his eyes. And...the point of this?…
It means they should have a second season!

For the people who want to see the episode with eng sub: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UX_X5cQUaBY Have fun
It was fun - especially nice to know the other gamers' stories.

I know, I’m saving it for a special occasion.

Title Gank Your Heart
It must be Yibo fans who rated it high cus I could’ve sworn this had a 7.6 or 8 or am I trippen
Nope, I haven't watched anything with Yibo yet (I know, I know) and I've really enjoyed this so far. Generational problems, work problems, interesting gaming scenes, romance, bromance - I was really impressed. It reminds me of a far longer weekend drama compressed into 35 episodes. FL is innocent but not that much - more like she hasn't had much of a chance to date in her life yet.
On My Love, Enlighten Me • May 17, 2020
Title My Love, Enlighten Me
I'm enjoying this but - I am dreaming of the day when leads don't have to have funky vision or face blindness or crazy memory. Determined, hardworking, ready to work through a grudge are all great habits of a lead - he doesn't need a medical reason to be the way he is. I guess a girl can dream!
