Now why can't cdramaland take a drama like this as the gold standard in contemporary drama instead of churning out an endless stream of cringe-worthy idol-vehicle dramas? Delicious Romance is a hugely enjoyable, excellent drama dealing with all sorts of relatable and timely themes and concerns. Highly recommended.

This is only the first season but the ending has no horrible cliffhangers and is very satisfying.

😂 😂

All the 12 little ones or with every sword in the vicinity a la LCG? 😂

Well they're both by the same scriptwriter and I like them both. I think this ending is better because with such an ending one can watch Season 1 and feel a sense of completion/closure up to this point. Certainly it lessens the pain of having to wait for Season 2, whereas for JOL 2, we really needed to see it as soon as JOL 1 was over or at least pretty soon since it leaves us with so many questions. Oh well, will just have to rewatch JOL 1 before JOL 2 starts.

What a great finale - at least if we're going to have to wait for who knows how long for Season 2, Season 1 ended on a truly satisfying note with everyone showing up and playing a role. Excellent! Those dramas which leave us with horrible cliffhangers should learn from this - this is how you wrap up a Season 1 without leaving your audience gnashing their teeth and wailing in frustration. Bravo!

3 new episodes are on Netflix in Asia. Try using a vpn and setting it to an Asian country like Singapore.

Ummm Luoyang is a thriller/suspense drama - every episode ends on a suspenseful note. Whereas Sword Snow Stride is almost (currently) journal-like. Dark themes are explored but the whole thing is not done super heavy-handedly. Noice.

I think the pacing is fine since the characters and their interactions currently keep it interesting. Moreover, am liking this drama cos it doesn't take itself too seriously.

Indeed - what's the point of watching yet another c-drama churning out the same old same old, like they all came out of a clone factory.

Agree, so far it’s hugely enjoyable and the characters are really not behaving like the usual stereotypes. I also like the fight scenes - not sure why there’s so much bitching about them. After the angst of Pearl Eclipse and even the seriousness of Luoyang, this is a nice relief.

You betcha! ROFL!

Yes, that horse scene was hilarious but enjoyable.

Am just hoping YM isn't leading us on when she said that in the end there will be a sweet love story.............

Did you see the interview snippet between YM and WC where they are asked to imitate each other and WC immediately goes "Shifu!" with BIG eyes - LOL!

Major suspension of disbelief - as always - LOL!

Yes, it's a pleasant surprise to see his acting chops in this - so far this year he's been in quite a few dramas but always rather so-so. Obviously another actor who just needs the right script and director to shine.

Already did and feels so good without the toxic vibes :)

It's just misogynist really - as if women don't get enough flak without fossilized people making comments like that in this day and age. Olivia Newton John was nearly 30 when she starred as a teenager in Grease. And in general, Asian faces tend to remain younger looking than Caucasian faces - something we could be celebrating instead of being subjected to BS comments like these over and over again.

Great advice! Just cleared my feed of all that BS. Funnily enough those people are just shooting themselves in the foot/mouth since they just increase the number of comments exponentially.
