Goodbye My Princess gutted me but for me a happy ending in that instance would not have worked because he killed half her family so I could not see her living happily ever after with him and having that at the back of her mind. Which is part of the reason why I think she did what she did, she loved him but hated herself for it. I haven't seen the other dramas you mentioned and probably won't watch them unless I'm feeling especially masochistic

If you insist lol. Basically all the good characters except for the FL die in, "I Will Never Let You Go" and the ML makes a miraculous resurrection in the last 30 second. So it was a double whammy of "let's unnecessarily kill off everyone and then bring someone back with no explanation as to how".
Goodbye My Princess I went in thinking it had a happy ending (I don't know why considering the name) but I came out heart broken and traumatised but I still absolutely loved it.

Exactly, l completely agree. The other thing that gets to me is when they kill off the protagonist and all the good people but then the villain and evil schemers live

For me it depends on the circumstance. I can think of a couple of dramas (I won't mention them because I don't want to spoil it for anyone) that they were better imo because of their tragic endings. On the other hand, there are some dramas with sad endings that were unnecessary and ruined them, and felt like a complete waste of my time.

The Untamed was my first adaptation from a BL novel I'd seen and it was also at a friend's insistence ( I can't thank her enough)

Yep, same here, LYX especially. That one crying scene tugged at my heart in so many ways and that's when I truly appreciated his acting.

Prince of Lan Ling was the very first one I saw but I didn't watch any other cdramas until Ashes of Love years later and that's what got me hooked.

Next year or later works for me, that's better than what I dreamt 😥. I don't have too many nightmares but hyx has been on my mind lately so maybe that's why I dreamt about it.

I just had a dream, a nightmare really but because my dreams/nightmares never come true, hyx will definitely air and hopefully soon.

🐧... did you hear that? We are waiting

I was holding out on reading 2HA until after I watched the drama but now after yesterday's news, I have given up on waiting and given in to reading.

Some of these are masterpieces, some not so much lol. I can give you a separate list of dramas I think are really good, which includes some on her but also others.

It is low budget and can barely be called a drama because of how short each epi is but was my guilty pleasure for a couple of weeks when it was airing. Don't say I didn't warn you lol

I feel the same way, for example, most people seemed to love "Ice Fantasy" and I tried 3 times and failed each time to get passed episode 13 (I'm starting to see a trend here lol) but sat through something like, "The sweet blood" without complaint

I am currently watching it and by "currently" I mean, I am on episode 13 but I started watching it 2 months ago. Since then, I have completed 18 new dramas, re-watched 4 and I'm in the middle of 3 others. I cannot exactly pin point what my issue is with it but for some reason I just can't get fully immersed in it yet. The costumes are pretty, the acting is good (Zhou Dong Yu acting is really cute and she pulls off the part of a spoilt goddess well and I love Liu Xue Yi character). There are definitely worse dramas out there that I have completed and in a more timely manner so maybe I just need to set everything aside and focus on this one. So in short, for me so far it's good, just not great. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a proper review but If you do watch it and get ahead of where I am, please let me know if I should keep going.

I go to bed nice and cozy, wake up and everything has gone to sh!t. Why China? Why?! 😭😭

The Lotus cakes and now this!!! The torture is real 😭😭😭

I wish I could watch this for the first time all over again!!! ❤️❤️❤️

My take away from this is, I need some KFC Lotus Cake sold near me 😂

Agreed!
