Megumi-H

I really like Gu Man’s FL, Strong, witty and smart, empathetic, a great character!. Zhao Jin Mai acts well and portrayed the emotions so well, esp. ep 8, Nie XiGuang’s conversation with Lin YuSen.

This is author’s idealistic fantasy of romance…”what if a man fall head over heels for a girl at first sight…and story unfold that even after 1.5 years later he still really really likes her”. lol! Maybe every women’s fantasy to have such man in real world😅.

😍😍😍These dialogues make me feel fluffy. ML is so slicked. lol!

I watched them, I like her acting and the story, but just wasn’t very convince with the CP pairing…lol. It’s just me😅.

👍🏻 Good spot. Gu Man’s subtlety in connecting her characters😍.
I am going to guess he will so the other story can be successful too.

👍🏻That’s a great one for winter re-watch, love that CP’s moments. After that drama, I was for a moment determine that I cannot see ZJM with another pairing, then we have this…so excited to see how her pairing with SWL develops.

🎉🎉🎉It’s great to hear that a fun and good series can be continued in many seasons!

Case 2 - Delusional ideas get passed down through genes…cant really blame a perpetrator with mental health conditions😓😓😓.

As @Aya and @ Pytheos, this year has to be WoF.

I realised answering this best ‘actor’, I should include the ‘best actress’ for 2025: Li Landi, Song ZhuEr, Maggie Huang, Wang YingLu and and Liu Dan🤩.

Ah…I saw the trailers, didn’t catch my attention, the story seems so familiar but because of ML, FL and Wang Duo, I may try a few ep😜.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. What you said does make sense.
For me this style of storytelling will soon lose viewers interest😅. But the pre-release trailers and this CP OST, are good and shows their chemistry, so that can keep viewers going with their slow burn🤩.

I agreed. The first 4 ep could have focus on present time and those school period crush could be done as a flashback memories. The director is trying to follow the novel sequence as novel readers shared. But to me its show the inexperience of the director doing a romance drama, as I comment earlier, this director is not known for this genre. I am still watching to see how it’s like when the actual leads get together.

As mentioned below that it’s the director’s original work and his first XianXia. He wrote and direct well for ‘The Knockout’ which is a major success. Just not sure how he will do fantasy/XianXia…we shall have to watch to figure out. There is already a leak mentioned that it’s an open ending, what does that even mean. lol!
Yup, agreed, the trailers wasn’t very captivating.😓

As a music lover, I would say this show is like soft rock and The Vendetta of An is metallic rock. I didn’t pick up Silent Tides yet😅. Love how every cases have a mini closure and the writing is pretty creative.

which one is that?

Yup, he is not very likable. Just me wondering, I see some of this youth dramas, they always show guys picking on girls they like, as that’s their immature way of seeking attention😅. But his insecure, inferiority complex just really doesn’t make them suitable for each other.

Ah thanks for this info. It’s validating my observation on the drama, interesting that this drama is better after editing😅. Let’s see how the leads’ romance when it happen.
Personal bias, always felt that female director can capture better romance atmosphere 🤩.

Absolutely agreed that the characters do drive us insane. lol! Watch on, hopefully you get to see FL’s growth arc, the last 7 ep was not easy for her.

I agreed with this 💯. Song ZuEr’s drama are pretty decent in 2025, but yet not much hype. The Prisoner of Beauty and Demon Hunter with RenJiaLun, both deserve more viewers.
