On my watch list. Thks

When time permits, I shall look into her works. Thks.

I am direct in my thoughts, so don't get offended and it is not directed to anyone.

I am a newbie BL watcher. My second time watching a CBL drama. The first was the 2017 Advance Bravely which I watched because I wanted to understand what was the director's and writter's purpose. I found it so mediocre that I never looked deeper into this genre.

The only BL movie I watched is Brokeback Mountains that is the best love story, to me, surpassing any love story of all times. And the only story that give me the crave to fall in love again. To be frank, whatever the genre, I am interested only in the production, music composition, the camera translating a palpable story on the screen, the interpretation and depth all actors are bringing to the screen and my intelligence not been taken for granted. In all I am interested in Arts in all its forms. As for whatever the genre, the fish kisses and the number of time main leads kiss do not arouse me. I am not a "voyeur" and most of the time I fast forward these scenes for even the music doesn't bring depth to these moments.

However, this AWSWTWISHD is really an exeptionally poetic story telling.

Thank you for your recommandations. Should I have the time, I shall look into one of them. Knowing that MDL is not a Chinese based site, I am surprised that cast and credits list is so poorly represented in regards to this Cdrama. I understand that, because of its genre, the production company is outside China but MDL shouldn't discriminate the creators of such a nice work. We, in the West, still have a long way to go to lay down our hyprocrisy.

Watched the 11th episode 3 times. Yes 3 times, and I am not over it yet.
This could never ever be turned into a costume drama.
How can a director translate such a script so emotionally and adapt it to the screen ?
Who are they ? Who is the director, the writer, the composer ? Why are they hidden from this MDL cast & credits list ? What the heck is that ?

I have movie claustophobia syndrome. Reason why I haven't reached episode 7 yet. I need some fresh air...thanks to my cat asking me the back door every 5 minutes 😹

Actually, I skipped some scenes I didn't find that necessary for the plot. Adding to the too darkyish ending was not adding to my desire to rewatch it before this airing season. This 2nd season appeals to me for William Chan and Joseph Zheng convo and indeed the veteran actors. I almost dropped it when sulky face Sabrina Chen appeared. Only that, dropped my idea of rating down to 2 numbers. But as of now, I've decided to hold my fort.

I contradict myself as I am not a 2nd season watcher except for Nivarna In Fire, Joy Of Life, Sword Snow Stride, for which I "grace" them my hours sleep 🤣

Back to the subject on hand. I have the same brutal idea in regards to Tientsin Mystic that took me 6 months to watch although it is a well produced Cdrama. Its other seasons are not on my "to watch list".

It's my take on all these.

He surely has an innate extrasexual tendencies. So his other senses (domination/greed/wickedness/visualisation, etc) are overstimulated because of his lack of physical masculinity. With or without a "pen*s" he would anyway have a vicious mind because his pen*s is only a tool used for a short time. But his vicious tendencies are always on alert. There are interesting books written by neuroscientists on that subject that I won't recommand anyone to read...too sickening

Your comment on William Chan is on point.

Episode 4
I enjoy watching this season better than the 1st.

I know there is a time gap between both seasons and technical camera motions/lightings have evolved since 2016 but it seems to me that the production team has the will to satisfy its global audience by inserting some more expensive "visual effects". Not to underestimate indeed the actors' years of experience.

I am watching a well written adaption for the screen that is not insulting my intelligence, as yet. It is still too early for me to give it a score.

He has a large written tatoo on his left cheek. I don't know why yet.

I've been waiting for this series for ages.
Played the intro in a loop for minutes on. It has to be listened with headset on. So much "trap" style of music with Chinese opera. So high class a sound. A little restraint though. Which is good otherwise might be viewed as Native American copy/paste style like Kpop unfortunately does. Chinese culture is very considerate towards others' in this matter - well this is my take. I should do my research on this composer.
I go back to this 1st episode.

GO GO GIRL !
CONGRATS !
Freedom and integrity will drive you miles !
Stay safe and healthy !

I like both main leads in Princess Jieyou. A pleasant couple in real life as that.
I am flabbergasted to notice that only 187 viewers on MDL for The Story of Her.

Thank you. You're an angel.

Is this episode a parody of the Epstein files and the 1977 Gabriel Matzneff's French Petitions ? It seems to be a way to say, look carefully at these perverts and never forget, so, history doesn't repeat itself.

Vincenzo was so good.

Was recommanded from a viewer to continue watching it.

And surprise ! A really pleasant surprise.
No more AI intro, that's a + !
Plot is not what I expected at all.
These families' dynamic is like a mosqitos' tornado. Each of them is playing durty tricks on each other.
I want some heads to fall like flies and no redemption.
I sound evil but who will dare throw the first stone at me.

Li Rong Zhang is a mysterious general.
Qing Yi's mother is so full of hatred, it is palpable. OMG, the devil wears Prada !
Jin Rui so brainwashed. Hope she'll crawl on her knees for mercy. That actress Momo Ru is creepy in this role. She is so good, I feel sick at every of her scene.
Nanny is already 6 feet underground. But that was too quickly done.
The old pervert in the wheelchair. Please writer and scriptwriter don't make his disappearance as swift as nanny's. Wish the Huo son will be the cherry on that cake.

I should take a break from this drama because the devil is taking over my soul and mind. I don't recognize myself.

Episode 25
MY COMMENT DOESN'T DESCRIBE ANY SCENE IN THIS STORY. I HAVE A THOUGHT TO EXPRESS, THAT'S ALL.

What I find pleasant in regards to costume Kdramas is that for both genders whatever their respective title, their bi/homosexuality are told and there is nothing to fuss about. There is one historical Cdrama that was true to homosexuality although that Cdrama was not romanticly shown (if I remember Growling Tiger, Roaring Dragon or The Advisors Alliance...which ever). Historical/costume Cdramas have put this reality aside. Now there are contemporary short length Cdramas that are given place to this genre but unfortunately they have to be under the cover of foreign productions. Understanding Chinese political convention in this regards doesn't mean that I bow to it. But it breaks my heart to read to often that these individuals are restrained in their every day life, in their love, their harmony, their soul, within their own families for some. When will come the day that leaders undestand that all united voices would make a nation stronger ?

Never without her and forever the best in Cdramaland.

She wants to take her brother-in-law down at the same time.
I doubt the veracity of her in-law's pregnancy. Might be another trick fron this evil woman.
