I'm finally caught up after fast forwarding through all peacock scenes. Definitely too much screen time.

Finished and I loved this. I was watching so many other shows, but I put almost all of them on hold to binge watch this one. This is the first xianxia that I’ve finished as far as I remember. I usually prefer modern romance, but this one captured my full attention from the first episode. The chemistry of the leads was great and I also liked all their friends. Suying was a bit too obsessive and I normally fast forward such characters, but I actually watched most her scenes because they somehow felt necessary to the story and not just filler. For 40 episodes, this show didn’t drag at all which really surprised me. Glad I found this because I got curious about the two leads after starting their newer shows, Love Me Love My Voice and I Am Nobody.

I’m watching this now(on ep 31) because I just finished watching the actress in the very sweet modern romance Love Me Love My Voice where she plays a completely different character. I’m watching the actor in a fun series called I Am Nobody, but I haven’t seen much of him yet. I started that first; however, this show totally sidetracked me.

My dad was 32. Good looking and well paid senior engineer but very shy. Met my mom and were married in 6 months. It's less common today, but it's definitely not unusual in Asia.

It's because WeTV, the other official site, released an express package for the remaining episodes and Viki doesn't do that.

Love all three of these and am now also really enjoying Back from the Brink even though I've never watched xianxia before. I watched mostly because it's same female lead as LMLMV and was also curious about the male lead.

It's not that unusual in Asian cultures where dating just for the sake of dating, and not with marriage in mind, is still not super common. In the case of this show, when would he have had the time?

I'm completely obsessed right now with a show with the same lead actress as Love Me Love My Voice. It's a xianxia drama, Back from the Brink. I'm not usually into xianxia but am loving this one.

I haven't loved any of the new ones I've watched the last few months. Nothing above an 8 and I rate fairly generously. One that I enjoyed the most is maybe xiao zhan's Sunshine By My Side. I would have rated this 8.5 except I fast forwarded all the scenes with the annoying younger sister.

I can't watch scenes with the Peacock Princess. I really dislike that type of person in shows and real life.

Sounds like it may be more confusing and frustrating if you watch Ancient Love Poetry and try to tie them together. I didn't watch ALP yet and I'm enjoying this so far.

Those particular ones they were eating are supposed to be really stinky. I've been curious about them, but I haven't tried them yet.

I watched early this morning and I fell asleep, too! I didn't know counting sheep really works.

If you don't mind a bit of esports action, You Are My Glory and Love Scenery are both sweet romances without much angst.

I was only going to watch a couple of episodes today but am now on ep 13. The show has me talking to and yelling at my tv. I want to watch the new eps of Last Immortal, but I can't stop watching this one.

I think Dad was already shipping them after he met Dr. Mo at the meat pie shop.

I was about to say the same. I finished it, but it was a struggle. So many stupid misunderstandings

I’ve seen comments on here and TikTok that this lacks a plot, but two people falling in love for the first time is a perfectly valid and enjoyable plot. Having stupid misunderstandings, cheating, scheming third parties, etc. doesn’t make it more of a plot. Just makes things needlessly messy.

The back story episode felt a bit slow and I don't feel any chemistry between the 2nd couple. I was tempted to fast forward, but I plodded on.

Started this today and am now on episode 6. I got curious about xanxia dramas after watching the first 6 episodes of The Last Immortal. I may be hooked now. Both of these are so fun. I picked this one because of the rating, the leads(currently also watching I Am Nobody and Love Me Love My Voice) and that it looked more lighthearted.
