MMH's original work is not a webtoon, but a web novel. The webtoon you're talking about is not the original MMH.
Given that the drama creators themselves are using the webtoon character images to promote their show, I think it’s safe to say that they are indeed adapting the webtoon. So they obviously failed with the ML casting.
I’ve finally finished watching it. I really loved the drama. I found almost all of the characters endearing and their journeys meaningful and relatable. I definitely recommend it. Granny Xie is my most favourite character, she’s awesome ❤️
At ep 16, he’s absolutely in love with her. Her understanding and support of his aspirations is what any man would want from his partner. I think he wouldn’t be able to forget a woman like her… ever. Even I would fall for her were I in his shoes 👍👍
Just watched episode 34. It’s getting better and the leads are finally talking to each other and acting sweet.…
Modern drama My little happiness. Insane kissing scenes. Period Drama The Legends with Bai Lu and Xu Kai, they had some crazy kisses in that one (they did date though). Ah, Falling into your smile and You are my Gloey had crazy kisses too.
The 34th episode followed the book to a T, with a tiny exception. What Shuyi wrote to Shan Shan about Shi Yan not having his way with her. It was a bit naughtier and incendiary in the novel. Otherwise, it’s perfect. Ah, of course that annoying extra guy didn’t exist in the novel, but it’s not that big a deal in this ep.
So far, it’s a masterpiece. I pretty much watched every single second of it, no skipping because the drama is so heart warming and full of wisdom.
I also moved from London to the countryside and feel blessed every day that I took that decision. This series is exactly my cup of tea ❤️
