ShouldBeSleeping

This was a sweet show. Life changing of course not but fun as the title promises.

I havent been watching kdramas lately. Almost exclusively cdramas but this one got me. I did wait to binge and i am glad i did. I did like ML. I do wish middle sister and COO got more screentime especially after he confessed. Teenagers got too many scenes, while they were sweet it was way much time one them.

The romance all the way through was 💋 perfect. The lingering glances, Zhang Linghe( director knows the best lighting, angles), that bathtub scene. The first episodes is the village were by far my favorite.
The supporting cast was great. The little sister was cute and not annoying like most child actors, the thugs turned army brothers overall were great (Mandi).
The villian brothers were also nuts but also fun and semi-sympathic and psychotic.
The younger sui brother that dimple...that ending for him.
The ending with the treason and politics was convoluted, maybe it was a translation issue but even after watching it twice i am still a little confused about why wei yuan motives, whtmat what with FL dad and why they ended up dead.
On the rewatch list but i think it will be first part and then skipping around to just to their scenes in the latter half.

Started strong and then felt like it started to drag but then i might be a somewhat me problem. The court politics stuff does tend to bore me.
FL felt like a Mary Sue. While i am all for a strong empowered FL, she just came off a little too all knowing and not just in a rebirth kinda way.
ML was a green flag but i did want to see him more with the grey hait.

I knew the reveal about the ancestor happened way to late but come on. That late.
The father and brother never got better.
I know that the ending was disappointing but again seriously.
Everyone forgets except FL and i guess ML.
ML gets to live out his entire life alone WTF.
They get the standard 1 minute meeting back in the real world ending which i am tired of. Can we get something more. How long have we been begging as fans for an episode or two once they are back. What is every couple going to break up when the real world gets involved?

A more mature couple. I did enjoy the relationship between FL and ML. The actual headhunting stuff was boring but the office stuff was cute and ML was the total green flag including the best single girl dad.

Everything felt rushed and half baked. The crush is barely included. The smarter, prettier twin sister is non existent. Even the relationship between the FL and ML is lacking with no chemistry. The plot with ML' parents is just tossed in with no real comclusion. Maybe it would have worked as a short series but they tried to set up a lot of storylines and then did nothing with any of them. Even with how short this is 2 hour movie as opposed to a series i still watched at 1.5 speed.

I liked it overall but i dont know. I mean yeah there are people who can have a depressive episode and they can get better but it just does seem realistic and yes it is a show but if you are going to take on depression and ptsd and it should still be somewhat grounded in reality. I got a boyfriend so eveything is great. And i liked ML in his more serious moments his happy puppy dog thing just isnt for me. It was okay and fit his character better in Strong Woman but just felt out of place and yarring here since he is also supposed to be going through it.

Its more open ended i guess. They will be reincarnated but we dont get to see it.

I think the premise was better than the execution. The first couple of episodes had promise but didnt deliver. It was cute but i dont know if i would ja e watched if it hadnt dropped all at once and didnt watch at 2x speed.

A slice of life drama which not my usual. But i really enjoyed this. I was initally not going to watch but so glad that i did. It is sweet and charming. No battles or magic or fantasy. An innocent kind of love story with a well deserved happily ending.

She dubs herself. And from what ive seen on like variety shows it seems like that is pretty close to her actual voice. And i think they dont just replace her with voice actor is because her dad is super wealthy( so nepo baby)

Honestly, the romance was in the first part but i think it falls off once she finds out the true and it does always feel like he is more in the relationship than she is. I finished but i finished at 1.5 and 2x speed.

Do prefer historical? Fantasy ie power? Seems like no modern.
Historical
Prisoner of beauty
Fated hearts
Legend of the female general
Modern
The first frost (which was the one that really reeled me in)
Love between the lines
Mr. Bad ( transmigration 2022)
Mobius ( time loop little romance, action, mystery)
Fantasy
Love in the clouds
When destiny brings the demon (transmigration)
Guardians of the dafang(transmigration comedy)
Love between fairy and devil ( 2022)
The starry lover
Tried to thrown in a little bit of everything. I am also pretty new to cdramas.

Cute simple comedy. Did like how ML was so impressed by FL and wanted her to be her and not change.

Ugh fan edits. Watched 38 episodes of political/court/palace intrigue for barely any romance. I wanted the romance. Thank god for 2x speed. Love me some red flag zhang linghe

Cute moments. Could have done without 2nd couple, forward through all of their scenes. Drama had a lower budget for sure but CXX and WYW are a lot of fun. Ending "explaination" was beyond weak.

I feel like this went under the radar. It is fun and funny. Sure it is a turn off your brain and enjoy show but thats what makes it fun.
More yan zi xian in every show doing just all of this please.

Fan edits made me want to watch the for the demon third prince but taner quickly stole the show not that i didnt love the third price still. Both couple were great. Im not going to lie but CXX was not my major focus even though he did play 4 characters ( i think it was the voice honestly that bothered me) but i hope with love between the lines and my page in the 90s this gets more attention.

So over the top but i enjoyed every moment of the ridiculous ride.
