Haven’t started watching this drama yet (waiting for more episodes to drop before I do) but I’m surprised…
Yea same same, I was surprised too! I actually didn’t watch any drama by these leads before so I had no idea this drama was going to air. But to my surprise, I was hooked and it impressed me more than any other 2022 drama so far. It’s not perfect, as no drama is, but it is seriously so soothing and captivating, just such a treat that I can’t find myself fast forwarding scenes the way I usually do for most dramas. The main leads conversations are so interesting that I don’t want to miss a word!
As much as I enjoyed WRTW, I find A Dream of Splendor to be one notch above WRTW. I think it’s the sizzling…
Yea, WRTW could have been an even better drama that it was, it had the potential! ADOS does have beautiful costumes, and they chose really good cast members. All side characters really fit well.

I work full-time and have 2 kids, but I still make time for this. ^^ I'm rewatching my favorite parts at night after kiddos go to bed. I especially rewatch Ep 5 scene with the boat, the scene with the FL looking for the ML after the court issue was resolved with the ML's help - that was magnificent with the yellow umbrellas and the screen that separated the ML and FL... this director is amazing...

Agree! I enjoyed WRTW also, and mostly watched it for the main couple. Their scenes were lovely and they were equals, which I loved. The villains were too headachy so I ended fast forwarding many villain scenes. Hehe. ADOS is a drama where I don’t want to miss any scene!
My favorite scene in ep 5 where the ML is riding away on a boat stealing glances at the Fl on the balcony - this scene was explained by the director on her Weibo account!
First time watching a Chinese drama featuring her and I must say she is really a classic and natural Chinese beauty with so much grace and elegance! She has so much chemistry with the ML in the The Dream of Splendor so far!
That’s right… I totally forgot about his dad for a moment. Glad the villains don’t take up too much screen time so far! (WRTW villains had too much screen time for my taste!!) curious to see how the ML here will navigate through rough waters!
