watched 5 episodes in one day and I absolutely love it. It’s so enjoyable to see the beginnings of two very young new actresses, Yu Ji Ahn and Seo Su Min. This is their first drama, and they’re doing such a great job.

When are the episodes coming out? Does anyone have a contact who worked on the drama and can tell us everything? Two episodes of Neo Hou are not enough. I can’t believe we only have 28 episodes… 😖

Dino’s OST is incredible, I can’t believe it. It’s amazing. That’s it, it’s going to be playing on repeat in my headphones now. This is it — these are the kind of OSTs we want to hear.

Good grief… that last kiss was seriously HOT 🌡️🔥. I don't think we've had a scene like that in a drama in a long time.

The soundtrack for this drama is absolutely incredible. I’ve found a new favorite song, performed by Xin Liu.

Min Ji is so cute. She reminds me of Kim Da-mi.

I can't get Neo Hou's name out of my head. I'm so thankful the heavens blessed us with a Neo Hou drama this summer. Honestly, aren't we having one of the greatest summers ever? We've got the World Cup, tons of amazing Korean and Chinese dramas... This is legendary. We're being absolutely spoiled.

I'm starting this drama a bit late. I have so many C-dramas to watch right now, but I saw the amazing ratings and reviews for this one, and honestly, I'm really in the mood for this kind of story. I hope I'll enjoy it and have a great time watching it.

I'm reading the synopsis, and it's probably the 400th "reunited as adults" drama at this point. We literally get this exact kind of storyline every single year.

Korean writers genuinely have zero ideas for dramas at this point—it's getting seriously ridiculous. It's always the same damn clichés on repeat whenever it's not an office drama.

And then there's always the same setup where either the ML or the FL has become successful while the other hasn't and spends the whole time dwelling on the past. Over and over and over again.

Will the songs sung by the FL’s ex be released or not? I really like them.

I'm so confused. We're in 2011 in the drama, right? Or am I getting it wrong? Then why did Miao Jing's phone say 2007?

Sometimes it's honestly hard to follow. The show jumps from 2011 to 2007 without any clear transition, so it's easy to get lost.

Episode 17 was absolutely insane. This is hands down the best drama currently airing. Chen Yi and Miao Jing, I love you both. A solid 10/10, no debate.

And the soundtrack... every single song is perfect. I never would've expected Song Weilong and Zhang Jingyi to have this kind of chemistry, but they're absolutely electric together. Holy fucking shit, their chemistry is unreal. ❤️🔥

Well, the release is just a few hours away! Now it's time for predictions for one of the most anticipated K-dramas of Summer 2026.

What do you think—will it be a success or a flop?

I'm specifically talking about its rating on MDL, since a K-drama that gets a low score there can still be a huge success elsewhere.

The poster for the drama is stunning—easily one of the best we've seen in a long time.

The wait for Episodes 9 and 10 is way too long. When you watch the episodes as soon as they're released, it feels like you're waiting two days for the next one.

Anyone else getting tired of all the drama? I'm starting to get fed up with all of it.

Is it just me, or does it feel like Chinese dramas are much less filtered these days? You can actually see the actors' skin—their pores, little pimples, and even uneven makeup. The makeup in this drama isn't particularly good, either.

I also noticed what looked like two small holes in Neo Hou's ear. Is one of his ears actually pierced, or did I mistake them for moles?

Put the bottle down. Alcohol isn't water, you know.

The fairy Huang Xiaoyun never disappoints—her voice is absolutely magnificent.

Neo Hou was ill at the time of the dubbing in April, so they agreed to use a voice actor instead. AiMi is also dubbed.
