Toooomeeee

I know right….

That’s very interesting! Let’s hope there’s enough excess sponsorship to create a sequel…. although quite frankly this drama’s ending is so complete and satisfactory there’s really no bits left for a sequel. 🫢😁

So happy to hear that! It deserves better rating than 8.2. Thanks for the local news that most of us here have no access to.

Btw when was it aired in China? If it was only after the airing of the whole series that it became popular and sponsorship started to pour in, what can that sponsorship do to promote the drama if it has already been aired? 🤔 Was that why Mango tv got the leads to do that variety show? 🤔

That’s a shame. That was my 1st SWL drama as I’ve previously avoided his dramas becoz of poor reviews of his acting.

But I watched LFY anyway as I quite like ZJY and I was pleasantly surprised. Maybe it’s coz I had low or no expectations of him….but after watching SoM (abt halfway mark) I can vouch that his acting improved leaps and bounds in LFY.

And you are right too that there’s not much going on in SoM so it’s hard for actors to shine (no pun intended)

Anyway, enjoy your watchlist… !

You must go try Love For You. Same ML and a gorgeous FL. Nice story, great acting and stellar chemistry!

Yes yes totally agree….. an all round good production. So far my favourite for this year!

And yes, great pairing of the 2 leads…. Deep down inside, we all know the Truth - the real underlying reason why they love each other so much….is because they’re so gorgeous! Hahahaha.

Oic ic……😁 Well, good news is, where I’m at now in SoM, SWL has done a 180 degree u-turn and has become much kinder, ZJM is growing on me too….she’s very natural…and I think Watermelon’s taste in men is slowing veering towards the global consensus…. So all good……

Why r u crying pal? 🫢

Where to read the novel? Could you please share the link?

Yes I’ll have to agree with you on that even tho I’m a huge huge fan of this drama. I think the editing there was so weird it appeared almost amateurish. I’m actually ok with introducing the time lapse at that point but the execution felt a little too raw and disjointed. It literally made me sit upright and go “Wud? Wud’s going on here?” …..which shouldn’t be the case in terms of audience reaction. I’m a pretty seasoned drama watcher and have seen many sudden time-jump scenes but none achieved that reaction.

But don’t let that spoil yr viewing pleasure…just know that everything gets explained eventually…. this drama leaves no stones unturned……(except one between tuli n cenyu….)

Hahahaha any excuse to fit in kissing scenes this drama….lol…. Like that heated exchange between MJ & CY where they were arguing about her job being too dangerous and why he’s still stuck in the rut refusing to get out and out of the blue MJ says “Do you dare to kiss me now?” I was like “Wudd?! hahahaha” this girl can’t hold it in anymore.

Hahahah my sentiments exactly!!!

Thanks for the update of the C-drama review world outside MDL. So happy to know LFY is getting well deserved ratings and accolade beyond the measly (relative) 8.2 here. Well done LFY! Fighting!

I don’t get why SWL is so broody with ZJM. I can tell he seems to like her and is unhappy she can’t remember him…..But I don’t get why he likes her…..she’s very plain looking and got mildly bulging eyes…🫢 some of the girls around her look prettier. And ZJM’s taste in guys….. she can get awestruck with the 2nd ML who is quite meh looking….and yet has no reaction to SWL hahaha.

I just started on this…. It’s so interesting that employees in China have to stay in dorms.

Both of you have put forward very constructive and sensible points of argument. I can clearly see where each of you is coming from and how you stand on the matter.

To each their own — and kudos for using this forum in such a thoughtful, respectful way rather than letting it slip into negativity or abuse. It’s refreshing to see healthy discussion like this.

Hahaha okok I’ll take note of all the above points…. I don’t know any of the actors or other dramas you’ve mentioned tho…but sounds interesting. Thanks!

Oooooooh……. Thanks!!

In ep 12, CY mentions “Chen Li Bin”. Who is that? Anyone knows?

What a coincidence to be starting SOM today! Thanks for the insights…so helpful. Hmm….Rich circle of life, lots of fun & laughter….that sounds like an antidote for LFY withdrawal symptoms!! Thanks!!I’ll give it a go!
