After such a long time I am coming back here because I am yet to find a historical c-drama better than this. This…
I highly recommend A Dream of Splendor, it's historical but it doesn't have any magic or jiang hu martial arts. It's a beautiful historical about regular humans, and not royalty and how they overcome challenges, develop a mature romance. Features independent women who do not act like elementary kids, and there is a pop of random comedy here and there that is cute.
The budding attraction ML & FL has in ep 5 with ML in the boat staring up at FL in the balcony (my absolute favorite): https://weibo.com/2020237375/LwFJy2WGk
I don't know if anyone shared this behind the scenes yet, but it's the scene where the FL is on the floor at the court house about to get punlished, but suddenly she sees the ML holding the yellow umbrella to rescue her, but his face changes to Chen Lian's face suddenly, confusing the FL for a moment.
AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO DIDN’T KNOW THAT THR FL PLAYED MULAN IN THE LIVE ACTION ONE??!?!!
Oh there is that one scene where she is outside the boat in ep 2 or 3 before they spot her friend floating - her styling there looks similar to her Mulan character. It's just that one moment though.
Everyone forgave Bai Lang Hua way too easily for almost killing Bai Feng Xi. BFX was pretty much dead without…
I really liked her character up until that point... I wish that scene was not there... If I were BFX, I would have been too hurt and would feel betrayed....
This was the first time I’ve seen Yang Yang in anything and he was amazing. I’d like to watch more of his…
Another commenter shared already but I want to also recommend - You Are My Glory - I highly recommend it! YAMG is one of my top favorite modern dramas. The overall drama atmosphere is on the comfortable slower pace, but it's worth the time to get into the story. I didn't really get into the story until after a few episodes and it picked up. He has amazing chemistry with Dilireba and they just look like a match made in heaven.
We are not sure, but I believe most of us would agree that the rating should be higher, as majority of the viewers love the drama and there have been very few unfavorable reviews, if any.
Also, many people haven't rated it yet since the drama is not finished. I hope everyone who loves this drama can give it a good rating! :)
The leads in this drama are not idol actors so they also don't have a huge int'l fanbase that is hyping up the drama or rating it high for their idols on MDL. The rating for the drama in China is excellent and that's ratings by tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people, verses just a few hundred or few thousand on MDL.
I love this drama excpet maybe the slow pace and Iil scenes before the confession. I think maybe the editting.…
I love the pace of ADoS, it's quite comfortable and the conversations are so fun and real. The romance is more mature. When I rewatched some of my favorite scenes, I could appreciate the director more and more. I enjoyed WRTW also, but was not into the politics and too much screen time for villains, but loved the romance and savored the scenes with the main leads! I'm savoring ADOS scenes as well, especially the romance and friendship.
Almost every girl around me are watching it! It's sooooo interesting and popular. I cannot wait to know the end…
The female director knows what makes a strong FL and ML, strong friendships, and could deliver heart fluttering romance. I love that the leads have such quality screen time together too!
The other two dramas listed above are good too, but ADOS is my favorite of this year!
