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.

I orginally though Yu Tian would be one of the leads for Yi He but I also love the bond they share so I don't mind it staying like that.

Kinda sad that this Sam business hasn't even ended yet. I thought we would get this over and done with earlier on so Chen Nan could pursue her earlier on but guess not. I just hope they don't drag it for too long as this drama is only 36 episodes.

I'm shipping Ren Ran so badly with the guy who likes her at work, I already pretty much know she won't end up marrying Lu Hao because of spoilers so I really hope her new romance starts soon as well.

Out of all the girls, I definitely admire Karen and Dingding the most, I feel like the are the most rational when it comes to love and the relationships around them and they know when to end it. Overall, more than the love stories going on, I really admire and respect the strong friendship they have going on, I'm always attracted to these type of dramas which represent the strong bond between friends.

(Btw damn that doctor is really handsome, I would also stay in the hospital just to stare at him)

The first episode was really good!!
The OST so far is killing it and I love Victoria's voice when she narrates in her dramas.
Hope this is similar to Nothing But Thirty because I got great vibes off that.

Not confirmed but the ending does say to be continued by the characters so I assume there will be one.

A SEASON 2??? I'M SO EXCITED. I honestly can't wait, this drama was sooo good and I can't even express in words how much this hit me and how much I learnt from it. AN ABSOLUTE GEM!

Tbh I was the opposite and I like Nothing but Thirty more (from previous comment). However, I really like this one two. I think especially watching them both at the same time, you really learn the different realities of those both in their 20's and 30's and their both wholesome in their own way. I really recommend both and even I dropped Nothing But Thirty before picking it up again, so maybe you'll like it if you pick it up again. More than anything, I'm just glad that we got two really amazing dramas at the same time. Usually I never find many good ongoing dramas that stay just as great from start to finish.

Thanks :)

Tbh I really liked it myself but I did drop it at Ep 6 when it was airing. I can definitely say it's a drama that really makes your blood boil (or for me it did at least). Sometimes it's a bit crazy as well as in there's so much going on. But I do recommend it, at least maybe give the first 5 episodes a try. You can also always look at reviews to get a better view of what others thought as well.

Wow, I'm so glad to hear that it is popular in China too. I don't know how to check such things since I'm an international viewer.

Very surprised by this 9/10 rating, usually most chinese dramas don't get such high ratings on MDL. Hopefully it sticks through until the end.

I agree, they were both at fault. Especially within a relationship, you cannot say that only one person was at fault. A really important quote Gu Jia mentions to Xiaoqin is how "One doesn't ask and one doesn't tell", something along those lines and it's very true. They both failed to communicate with each other and that's very important within a relationship.

If they do get back together, I hope they actually tackle all these problems on such as communication and other things otherwise there's no point. If not then I think they will learn a lot from this relationship which hopefully allows them to be more understanding in their new ones.

Oh sorry, I realised that I didn't make it clear enough but I mean that I wanted Ni Ni to end up with her Ex Barista Boyfriend, not the other one. And I totally understand what you mean with ZZ, I was watching her facial expressions especially when they were in the car together and was laughing because she seems so uninterested in him.

For Gu Jia, I really hope they do divorce because it's unforgivable that their cheating and the girl full approached him knowing well that he was married. Maybe I've been too absorbed with "The World of the Married" that I feel like she might not divorce and her son might end up getting badly impacted whether she does divorce or not.

YES DEFINITELY, I'm also watching both and I dropped this for a while but the ratings spiked up on MDL so I decided to give it another try. Might even like it better than twenty your life on.
