Oh yes, you're right ... I forgot to mention the red lantern. It was shown in "Farewell my Concubine" (I plan to watch this, even if it's a bit older).

Yeah ... KaHolics to the rescue.

But our poor KaH maybe cannot compede with these ... :( ... Guardian fits soulmates, too.

mhh no ... KaH definitely has romance. I mean there are so many scenes which just scream romance (these red beans, the title of the drama, CYZ reciting the clearly romantic poem just before he tried to sacrifice himself for JYL) ... all these hints like for example in WoH, too (even if I dropped it the cutsleeve in WoH is clearly a reference to romance for me ... I learned about that story from the novel of The Untamed :)

Ok, one of you make a soulmate list if you couldn't find one ... with just one drama .... KaH ;P.

Nah joke aside, I will shift bromance to soulmate ... it's way stronger.

Ok, I can understand.

I think KaH is also about friendship (but not just about that) so for me it fits....and KaH is the best drama in every category ... (my in no way objective view :).

And another dilemma. I'm fine with every decision you make... in the end it's yours alone :) can you share the link? I will vote for KaH for sure.

Sorry, spam alert. Another list I've found which is fitting for KaH.

Best Bromance/ friendship drama (this time I wasn't the first, KaH had been added already :)

You can wait. When I've watched it then I can tell (don't know though when I will be able to watch). For me it is totally ok to be conservative. I see myself also more on the conservative side but if it's reasonable I can bear with adult scenes 'til a specific point. If it's just for the show with no meaning then there is no point at all in watching them.

I didn't know. Please add them (KaH at first... please ;) share the link then here.

Ok. Alles klar :P

... and even if you want to complain you have to do it in German ... or Chinese! XD

I think I know what you mean with surprised. After watching KaH I read some stuff about MZJ and in my opinion he's at first an artist and will take on the roles which catch his interest. Even if these roles will cross boundaries I think he will take them nonetheless if they are compelling to him. If my impression of him is right then he won't think much of the expectations of others (fans, critics). So expect the unexpected. If scenes are meaningful in an artistic sense or for the story and not going too far then I'm ok with them.

I'm waiting for subs. Hopefully it doesn't take long after the first airing. I don't think that you will see too much adult content... not sure though.

You mean "Revenge of Flowers" from Tencent?

CCC ... crowded crying corner ...

Honestly, it's the first drama where I already started another rewatch. And it is in no way boring. The atmosphere, the settings, the acting, the music all just feels a little bit like coming back home (even if Jing Cheng isn't my preferred place to live). I've said all this many times before. This show is so well made it never annoys me to watch it allover again.

One huge advantage is that I got to learn more chinese the more I watch scenes again I already know. The best way of learning if you have something like KaH that keeps you motivated on a really high level.

I honestly thought that the scene where JDC asks CYZ if his relationship to Chu Ran is not innocent and then if his relationship to JYL isn't innocent was a fan made edition of that scene. It was so bold in my eyes that I didn't expect it to be the original.
