I am rewatching on Viki because subtitles are better
Well I wish I could do the same but just like Legend of the Female General, I just don't have enough free time to 🏴☠ watch and then rewatch the episode legally with better subs, so since I have to make a choice, I stick to my Viki subcription.
Out of all the legal platforms, Viki subs are always the best but my GOD sometimes the WAIT IS KILLING ME. Like LOTFG still hasn't finished... They've been releasing 1 episode a day since episode 30 and I fear given this series release schedule I'm heading for the same nightmare once we're past episode 20 or so. Right now, they have 7 episodes available... which means I'm bound to catch up tomorrow and then what do I do?
Of course I could start Moonlit Reunion and Shadow Love ( CHENG LEIIIIIIIIIIII) but I already have an overly long "Currently Watching List".
I usually don't watch too many shows at the same time... But what is happening with China! WHY do they release ALL the good ones at the same time!!!! I can't KEEP UP!
Sadly this show is too good. Should have been smart and waited for all the episodes to be released on Viki, but I got tempted by the high rating... That was truly stupid.
When a show is "too popular", people who hate it usually like to make their voices heard by upvoting the most negative reviews, something most would not do on less popular shows.
Give it a try and see for yourself.
PS: I'm sure you're gonna love that one given your profile...
I wouldn't commit again if I were you...60 episodes is a huge commitment and the FL is a brainless frustrating…
For people who's ratings is around the same number as mine, the main reason cited is most of the time the part in the human realm. Personally, it's not that I hated it ( well...not at first) just that I found it too long. But my main issue was the frustration I felt regarding certain characters which were given too much screentime given how irritating they were.
Anyway, it's all a matter of taste of course. There's no better opinions, just different ones.
I sent them a request telling them the drama is already finished but so far complete silence. Also on the front…
Nah thank you for your insight. I used to have an old account here since 2016 or 2017 which I erased to create this new one a couple of years ago and yeah for the articles...It's pretty noticeable especially this year, my God... I've started to avoid the front page altogether.
I'm of the opinion that BTS or any documentary for that matter shouldn't be added to the database altogether as well... but again... they even list ANIMEs on this platform which is just utterly ridiculous so BTS are nothing next to that I guess...
Can't believe I posted a comment a year ago about watching this as soon as I saw it available on Viki... and here we are a year later... Finally starting it... Time sure does fly... I wish Viki would warn viewers when shows are about to quit the platform because I never know which old show to prioritize watching...
It was a realistic ending - they woke up from the coma. This means that all the events in the drama were just…
Thank you for the recommendations ^^
LOTFG: Oh I adore the show ^^ After all Dudu is He Yan's husband but Cheng Lei is MINE. It's just that since episode 26, the romance has taken a back sit. Still enjoyable but I'm a sucker for this couple so I wish we spent more time with them being sweet together.
Prisoner of Beauty: I enjoyed that one but still rated it 7.5... Show was slightly overly long for my taste... As you wrote, basically for me the main draw was how they got together... after that it's pretty smooth sailing so from episode 17 to the end... If felt a bit like an overly long epilogue to me especially since I had no interest whatsoever in the politcs onscreen. I also hated the last 3 episodes for obvious reasons... I thought killing you know who was unnecessary and to be honest I'm still pissed they killed the most lovable, romantic character of the show. I mean the ML was though in love with his wife, extremely prideful, but the bubbly bearded lovesick puppy got effed for no reason but inflict last ditch trauma to viewers. Curse them!
The Princess Royal: OK. That will be the next Romance centered story then. Thanks for the recommendation.
The Double is truly exceptionnal. Truly deserves all the raving review in my opinion... But I can't binge it. I've got a weak heart and I can't handle the stress... This being said, there's some lighter moments as well peppered in the show so it's not all tense and everything... It's just that I am weak especially since I can't binge these days due to lack of time.
For SOOY, I never skip scenes in dramas so I'm still gonna watch the second couple's scenes... I've just decided not to care about the brother and that fake friend of hers and consider them as part of the background... Otherwise I'm gonna be irritated senseless.
Thank you for all the warnings though. Now I'm mentally prepared for what's to come so I should enjoy the rest of the show stress-free ^^🤗
Most popular reviews are always the harshest whenever a show is really popular... See Lovely Runner's page. This…
Well before the show ended the comment section was pretty active but most comments were overwhelmingly positive. It's only when the show got near the end that the tide turned and people who didn't enjoy it started to be more vocal.
That's cool. Hopefully this will calm down in a couple of weeks. I don't mind people giving negative opinions about shows I like ( we're all different after all)... but you know sometimes people might not give a try to a show they would otherwise have enjoyed had it not been for these comments. That's the sad part.
Personally I pay more attention to comments than ratings but this is one case were it's better to look at both because no matter how bad the reviews, most people enjoyed the show...
As for myself, I'm still watching it since it's still currently being uploaded on Viki ( they uploaded episode 31 today and they seem to be going for 1 episode a day instead of 2 episodes per day the preview weeks)... So I still come here from time to time but obviously, the overall mood is no longer the same.
I think most people are already gearing up for Cheng Lei's new drama Shadow Love which should start on Sunday.
I'm probably going to skip this whole insanity personally. I'd rather finish everything I'm currently watching than start yet another show but I can't say I'm not tempted. I've loved him since "My Journey to You" (He stole the show for me) so having him finally in major roles, I can understand why people are hyped.
It was a realistic ending - they woke up from the coma. This means that all the events in the drama were just…
Thank you!
Like... I was just coming here to check comments regarding the last episodes ( Just watched episode 6 on Viki and they've only uploaded up to episode 14 at present) and I kept reading about people being furious about the ending and whatnot.
I didn't know Time Travel was banned in China.. I mean Reset is a drama that is all about being in a Time loop but whatev'.
I'm glad I read your comment... Well that sure is ANNOYING... I'm not sure I'd have started this drama if I had known... But I've already watched a quarter of the series and I like the main couple so I'm just gonna prepare myself mentally but it sure is frustrating. That also means Gao Rui is dead dead then...
You know I was watching LOTFG... but the latest episodes didn't have as much romance as the first ones ( Viki is currently at episode 30). I started the Double, the drama is GREAT, but stressful and the romance is were I am (episode 11) practically nonexistent so far. I started The King's Avatar. No romance at all in that one...
So I had decided to give a try to this one to get my romantic dose... And it is very cute between the two leads... They're honestly the only draw, but I like them enough to stick with all the secondary annoying characters...
Well if you have a CUTE Chinese romance to recommend which doesn't flip the finger to its viewers I'll be very happy if you could give me a recommendation.
guys pls send link to read the novel with english. or is there a novel book to buy? just send me link for both…
Book is not available in English, but the novels have been published in Chinese. It's 2 volumes, 3 books per volume and you can buy it on Aliexpress or any other Alibaba equivalent.
It has its flaws but I loved it.My fav female character in years. Surprised to see so much blacklash (but I agree…
Most popular reviews are always the harshest whenever a show is really popular... See Lovely Runner's page. This K drama aired more than a year ago, plenty of time for the ratings to drop but it is still 9 to this day. Yet the top reviews gave it a rating of 6 and 2 respectively.
Just don't pay attention to it. There's plenty of very popular shows, that I personally hated and rated "harshly" but that's a personal take. Every opinion is valid but if a show is really loved, people tend to support more vehemently the opposite opinion when they're part of the minority when they wouldn't necessarily bother otherwise.
Why won't MDL allow us to mark this as "Completed"?
I sent them a request telling them the drama is already finished but so far complete silence. Also on the front page you get 'iQiyi love on' which is... completely stupid given it's basically just a collection listing a list of dramas that already have their own separate page. Every time there's a new show airing, the list goes on i.e this will always stay there and pollute the website. There's 300 or so viewers "currently watching" this and yet this is listed as most popular...
This is polluting the front page and prevents others from seeing shows that are truly currently airing. It annoys the hell out of me on top of all the gossip articles that have popped up recently on this website. What the fudge are they doing?
Just want to know what's the maths behind banning time travel or rebirth concept???😒
From what I know time travel is not banned, only the reincarnation thing.
The reincarnation thing is because you need to die in order to be reborn ( and there was a wave of suicides apparently in China at some point which led the Chinese Government to censor it on TV) whereas there is no such thing as death involved in going back in time.
Though in this drama, it's a bit ambiguous... You could argue they died... before being reborn in the past... But you could also argue that maybe the elevator sped up faster than the speed of light and went back in time or something.
Someone plz educate my confused ass but the whole dual cultivation was mostly mental right!? Like mental intimacy…
I haven't started this drama yet... but just so you know, in chinese NOVELS, when it comes to "physical cultivation", it's the "whole business". I would expect it's the same here, hence drama censorship means you only get the "tame version".
We can't complain, if we then have bad dramas, we'll have more time to watch the good one ! I was in holidays…
Are you wishing for bad dramas now?🤣🤣🤣 "A Dream within a Dream" is another one I need to watch 😆 Too many good ones this year... On the other side, K dramas have been terrible this year so most of the time I usually allocate to K dramas have been given to C dramas for the past few months.

In what way exactly is this drama "low budget"? It literally screams "money" from the very first frame...
I'm of the opinion that BTS or any documentary for that matter shouldn't be added to the database altogether as well... but again... they even list ANIMEs on this platform which is just utterly ridiculous so BTS are nothing next to that I guess...

It must be a psychological thing.
