Exactly, I really enjoy the articles on MDL. Shows and movies that I am usually reluctant to start, I end up jumping straight into if recommended through an article.

Amazing article. Will also make sure to check out Part 1.

I've been holding off Us and Them ever since it came out. I saw the trailer and it looked like the type of movie where I would be bawling my eyes out for most of it. I'm still reluctant to watch it but will give it a go.

I actually just finished the Italian version of Intimate Strangers because of your article. I think I definitely liked the Korean version more (maybe because I watched it first) but the Italian version opened my eyes up to little details I probably missed in the Korean one. The idea behind the movie was great, especially because of how confused I was with the ending and just the overall message. I also really loved the quote at the end for the Korean version which was "People live three lives.. a public life, a private life and a secret life."

Yess, I loved Waikiki and have been eyeing The Fiery Priest for a while, contemplating whether I should watch it or not. I probably will now that you've recommended it :)

Oh really? That's okay not everyone may like it. I usually don't like medical dramas either but the comedy and friendship in it was gold.

Also Hospital Playlist as well. Anything from the director and writer duo who produced both these dramas are super good and funny.

Haha I get you, I didn't see the need to go back tbh. She was doing soo well by herself. I do hope there is a s2 tho. It was quite popular so maybe.

Yes definitely, I liked this better than Twenty Your Life On but they both have their own charms.

Yup, if you watch the last episode, you'll know.
Remember when she meets Zheng Xian and he basically asks to get back together. Instead she says you still haven't changed and walks away happily back to her friends. I remember this scene very well because it was so powerful for me. I reckon watch it again if you forgot.

Like Maggie's character in Nothing but Thirty.

Part of me wanted Xixi to not end up with anyone at all.
I kinda wish it showed more of her growth as a person instead.
I feel like this would have been very refreshing like... (Spoiler for Nothing But Thirty below)

I am absolutely in love with this drama too at the moment, and I'm glad that our thoughts are quite similar.

Duan Xu and Xixi are my favourite couple at the moment, I absolutely love how they bicker all the time haha. I also agree with the part where you mention that some aspects of their relationship is quite realistic. Their completely different yet that match so well together and I love seeing that. Also I lowkey do hope that Liu Ke realises what he really missed out on, his also beginning to show signs as the episodes progress. Initially, while I also didn't quite like Xixi, I think as the story progresses, I ended up liking her quite a lot. I think that while she does seem quite innocent and naïve, that's the most charming thing about her. As the story goes on, you begin to see how optimistic she is and because her character is so different to all the other girls, it makes her stand out even more. Plus I like when she uses her logic and wit to fight back whenever her and Duan Xu are arguing and he isn't able to say anything, it's just hilarious.

With Ru Xue, I think she has become one of my favourite characters in any chinese drama yet. She has the best quotes in this drama and has so much wisdom and you begin to realise this through her blog from the start. I adore her and the chef but I agree when you say that because she is so clever, she will start to realise such problems.

Throughout the whole series, I also never really shipped Hui Qiao and Vincent. I think that while they had the love there when they were younger, it just isn't the same anymore. It also makes it harder being in the same field and even the same company because there is so much competition between them at all times and this makes it hard to really distinguish between their personal and work life. I just hope that she actually ends up with the new guy and that she doesn't end up using him because she seems like a completely different person with him and I adore that.

As for Xiao Yang and Du Jiamu, I'm not particularly interested in their relationship. It seems too much work to think about what these three have going on and where it will end. If anything, I hope nothing ends up happening with any of them.

While watching this, I based their age off the assumption that it was around the same as their real ages. They haven't mentioned it yet but I think their real age matches well with their age in the drama.

In terms of friendship, even though it is about the 5 girls. I see it more as 2 separate groups, so Xixi, Ru Xue and Hui Qiao (as the three are much closer) and Xiao Yang and Qi Yue (as their best friends). The only big factor is that they live together. However, within their individual stories, they are closer to the girls within their separate groups. Plus Ru Xue and Xiao Yang are sisters.

This article was amazing, I really hope a part 2 will be coming along soon. I've been contemplating on Hot Stove League for the longest time and decided to give it a go because of your article, really glad I did. IT WAS AMAZING!

Slowly making my way through Diary of a Prosecutor and Dear My Friends :)

Oh true, highly unlikely Eric would be the second lead. But haha still hoping for some sort of miracle. Either way he always does a great job in all his dramas so I'm sure he will land a lead role soon.

I mean technically he is playing the current husband for Yoo In Na right? So in that sense he will be the main lead, but yes I also hope that he would be offered more first male lead roles.

Probably because it's still on-going sub wise. If you look at the schedule, I think certain members on iQiyi get to view the episodes earlier.

Suree, I'm sorry if this isn't in like very heavy detail because I've only seen previews of it. But in one Yi He hugs him really tightly somewhere outside and it's so cute. Another one their in their car and their hands are intertwined and he kisses it. Another one I think she's drunk or maybe not and he runs his hand through her hair and I think is about to kiss her, not too sure.

Haha, I've watched so many things just to find their scenes so it'll all come up soon. And I know these scenes sound like normal romantic scenes but considering they don't even have that many romantic scenes together, I thought they were adorable. I'm pretty sure she also finds out about the necklace bit too later on.

Yeah same I saw that he confesses on Ep. 32. Yes we only do get 4 episodes of their relationship but hopefully they have a lot of scenes together so we don't feel too sad. I've seen some spoilers after they become a couple and the scenes are so adorable. So dw it'll be worth it hopefully.

I completely understand what you mean. I think they will officially break up in Ep 25 from the previews I've seen. If there's one thing I don't like about Victoria's character in this, it would be that she gave Sam too many chances and doesn't realise that feeling insecure in a relationship constantly is not the way to go.

Haha ikr, I was searching up his other dramas as well. I think his a new actor and he pops up quite a lot in this drama so their probably trying to expose him a bit more.
