Sound like the same story from the American TV series LOST. I didn't watch the TV series because it didn't…
Yup, if I ever suddenly inherit billions I am so bringing Dominion back! XD
As to the subbed version of the third novel - like you I'm waiting and hoping it happens. The current two adaptations are just so good I can't imagine the third being awful. As for the books - try Wattpad - translated versions of most Chinese novels are on there.

Oh I hear you on the cancellation. I used to ADORE 'Dominion' - cancelled. 'Almost Human' - cancelled. a myriad of others too.
I understand what you mean about Taiwan and China. I prefer Taiwanese to Chinese. I find the Chinese dramas VERY pro-Chinese authorities; whereas Taiwan, Korea and Japan are a lot more free about the overall structure and interaction with government agencies. However I did like 'Love me if you Dare' and 'When a Snail falls in Love' - both from China. I agree about 'When a Snail Falls...'; 'Love Me if You Dare' is from the same writer (he wrote three novels in all) and the same studio and scriptwriters have done both adaptations. I'm like you and prefer romance in dramas - but with 'When a Snail Falls...' (and 'Love Me....') it is there, but, as you say, very much secondary to the main story. They're both so good for that - the mysteries really draw you in. :)

Oh agreed - I rarely watch much tv in my own country (UK) now. I watch 'Humans', 'Killjoys', 'Dr Who', 'Librarians' and 'The Strain' - that's it. Everything else is online and Asian and East Asian. I predominantly like Korean and Japanese dramas/movies the most. I also like the Taiwanese and Thai, but I'm leaning away from Chinese stuff as apart from 'Cruel Romance' it's mostly sad endings for BL dramas; and a few happy ones would be better.

Not only that I think really that Kdramas and in fact most East Asian and Asian dramas have much better writers than LOST did. It was two guys writing as they went with no real end in mind. Yup, you dodged a bullet with that show that's for sure! lol! Nice that this will have romance as it's main plot or at least a main plot point. Thanks for the info. :D
I watched it recently and was so surprised at how different he was in the role - especially when you see a lot of the BTS of 'Falling for Innocence', he's so funny and goofy. But in Cruel City he was really hardcore...and HOT. Oh I've also seen him in a horror film called 'Manhole' on Netflix UK - dear God he scared me to death in that. He's certainly versatile as an actor. :)
So have you seen him in 'Falling for Innocence'? That was the first Kdrama I EVER watched and it had me hooked on them ever after. I even bought the (subbed) dvd. :) He was great in it and I have to say his comic timing is spot on; there were many occasions when I wanted to hug him but also punch him. lol!

I hope it's NOT the same as LOST - that series stole 6 years of my life for NOTHING. It's what made me wary of ALL dramas these days. ;) Hopefully though South Korea has better writers than two guys who clearly didn't know what they were doing.......me, bitter? Oh yeah! lol!
i freak myself when i realize i do same hand gesture as ataru when i try to remember something O.O
Me too; I didn't even realise I did it until my husband saw Ataru doing the hand gesture and said "oh, you do that when you're concentrating on something you're reading or watching or if you're really trying hard to remember something, it's quite cute." I just stared at him and he added with a shrug "didn't you know?" So am a little freaked out too because no, I didn't know I did it.....WHY do I do it?
Just give a me a drama special where they meet. A second season isn't necessary.
Yup agreed - if the studio is dead set against a second season because of the stupid 'netizens' then just give us a damn special. The fans deserve consideration too, not just miserable so-and-so's on the net!
i can´t judge other adaptations but L and Ren definitelly didn´t live up my expectations...and it´s…
I thought old L was okay - but new L drove my daughter nuts; she said he was NOTHING like the character in the mangas, not in the portrayal or looks....I have to say he didn't walk, sit or talk right either.

In fact - here you go! This is when a snail falls -
