Daffodils

Lee Ha Nee acting was outstanding, her comedy timing was perfect. You may not like it but she was highly praised during the broadcasting of Knight Flower. By the way, she also received another nomination in the film category. Everybody cannot be wrong about her!

We know Song Ha Yoon from Marry my Husband should has been there as a winner or nominee at least but in Korea people are so easily cancelled even if nothing is proved yet and incidents have nothing to do with her acting skills.

They have some of the "ingredients" sound actors and good CP visuals but lack in basic ones, bad script, and bad rhythm; the actors are there but not the "ensemble" It feels forced, and clichés all over the place. Overall not believable and not good enough quality.

There is no a proper explanation on why hurting him (e.g. ignoring him) will actually save him or improve the chances to save him. It looks only scripted like this for melodramatic effects. Myself and my friends were discussing this.

This is so repetitive, that it is no longer enjoyable. I started this and absolutely fell in love and recommended it to my friends but also some of them just can't cope with it any longer. She does not learn at all, coming back to fix things is the most useless exercise, and she keeps hurting him "to protect him" and not grasping the real motive of his death. I know I am going to receive hate because of this comment. Could you please don't do it. Some of us are simply frustrated with exactly the same behavior at whatever time she returns, her facial and bodily expressions as well always the same. It is ep 9!

They have the same employer since they were kids so they trained together often before they were separated in their J Pop groups

These actors are so honest in their performances that we can feel like a Peeping Tom. Their kisses are beautiful and genuine. It all feels very heartfelt. Much better than other bigger budgets k bls.

Ep 3 - Finally, 15 minutes into the episode we have proper Boys Love, Shirasaki telling Hayama "you must be sleepy, go into the bed" was delivered with so much warm and tenderness, and the moments of them hugging in bed really heartfelt, but that's all, in 3 eps and the preview is not convincing enough that we have more emotional loving moments with another character in the mix. Taisuji Niihara (Shirasaki) has a very sunshine-warm personality outside cameras but the role does not suit him most of the time. Kiita Komahine as Hayama is always on point and the main reason why I am watching this BL. He is indeed a very very attractive actor, not only for his visuals.

I only watch this for the CP (the two psychiatric doctors) they have lots of chemistry, look good together and there is a very sweet and warm undertone in all their interactions despite not being a couple yet. The rest of the characters are so unattractive and frustrating to watch and the storyline lines are weak and unconvincing. Some of the performances as well as are not good enough. This is why I fast forward all these characters except the interaction of the CP.

sweet home alabama, I don't know what it is but it sounds funny :-)

My Chinese friends in China have told me this. Everybody in China knows that directors/scriptwriters build a "bromance" subplot in all hetero dramas. I have not invented it. Whether blood relatives or not, it does not matter. Audiences like the interplay of two beautiful male characters, it does not have to be erotic/romantic like e.g. The Untamed which was a "bromance" with romance built in. As you may know in China BLs have been forbidden in mainstream media since 2016 and after World of Honour, the adaptation of BLs as bromances are also forbidden hence why some productions have not seen the light of the day e.g. Immortality.).

Many thanks!

Many thanks for sharing your experience too. Do you have a link for the series/films that you mentioned?

On FL choices - I am sure a good number of us, she/he/they, who populated this forum, have had to make the same choice in our lives, whether is international migration or internal migration, we could not miss "that opportunity". In my case, and in the case of all people I know, we who left, even a good romantic relationship like myself, did the right thing and we are better off than those who stayed. Of course, this is just my "anecdotical evidence" but there is a reason, most of us did not leave to find another good romance, but because the life we were living was not expansive/enriching enough for our soul aspirations and we had the opportunity, the resilience and the support to do it. I believe we were the lucky ones. In the case of the FL this has a superlative meaning considering all that she had to overcome. I had an ex-colleague who had an almost equivalent life story to the FL. Having said this, this series pushes the narrative of long-distance relationships. These relationships are quite common and they work. I know lots of people in Europe that have a partner working in another city or even in another country and no drama. They keep travelling backward and forwards to meet.

Lu Yu Xiao and Cheng Lei alluring performances and super chemistry stole this show when it was first broadcast. Now in my second viewing, I can relax and appreciate other positive aspects. Zhang Ling He and Esther Yu were a good match but Esther's performance was lacklustre though I applaud her for trying a different role. ZLH did well, he had great chemistry with his funny sister and best friend but his character was a bit spineless. Jolin Lin was amazing as the sister and had a great rapport with his CP but her comedy moments were few and far apart. As we know, every hetero drama in China has a bromance (Chinese BL) subplot to attract more audiences but Cheng Lei looks forced as Tian Jia Rui big brother and I could not see the appeal. I think the fact that most of us were obsessed with his romance with Lu Yu Xiao character somehow make his rapport with Tian Jia Rui character annoying. When I watch this series first time I found it super boring at moments but now I just keep going and I enjoy it somehow. It is a dry series, not enough spark, plots points not well explained, and a silly overuse of the blowing machine! but I still gave it a good rate.

I think so, they have not been released

A few minutes into the 1st ep and I am already annoyed with all the characters. The premise is absurd, it is not even funny. The narcissist character is unwatchable. I fast-forwarded practically the entire two episodes and there is nothing there for me. It looks like the secondary couple could be interesting and only appear in the last second, so we have to wait to see if there is something redeemable about this BL.

Many thanks for the summary, really interesting and complex

Do you mean the 21 episodes? I was asking because sometimes they are released in a Chinese streaming services in raw format

all the episodes?
