Currently re-watching this and it is even better than I remember. From filmoghraphy to editing, osts, flow of the story and of course the acting prowess of the whole cast is top notch. After seeing countless dramas from the same genre this one still comes out as a top tier one. I want to see a drama at this level again, (sans couple of dramas) looking back at 2023-22 or even 21 nothing was that eye catching for me, although 2024 has a slow start I hope we'll see some real hits this year. Fingers crossed.
Okay, what the hell was that ending? I mean the umbrella and milk? Did I miss something... Btw props to her for finishing the game over a weekend ahahaha, you go girl.
Comment section down there is hectic XD I watch everything that PMY puts out there but dang this looks so cheap, even her makeup looks a bit off. People are trying to get a hold of this relic but does it really worth it? I get that its ZZH's comeback(?) so to speak but still, idk. I wonder when this was even shot...
I've seen a lot of dramas and steeled my self through some awful ones just to be not a quitter but I no longer do that. Annoying female lead, pass, abusive male lead, hard pass, no chemistry between any of the cast, hard pass. As someone who now drops dramas in the midway just like a hot potato was able to watch this drama like a breeze. This was fun guys. I mean plot was kind of lukewarm but the tiki taka between the characters was entertaining enough to mask that all. I did fast forwarded at some point, third couple arc was just bleh, but the scenes between Syu Yi, Shi Yan and Shi Yue were smooth, don't expect an oscar worthy performances and you'll be having enough fun if the CEO genre is your cup of tea.
I saw so many bad modern c-dramas that this one felt great compared to those, and for a reference point I was trying stomach the first episode of the cute programmer but gosh that was a mess from the get go. Anyways after SoKP I needed a piece of mind and OfL was perfect for that :)
p.s. I might be a little bit biased towards Bai Lu as she can make me watch almost anything and her scenes with Dylan were fire.
This was just so damn satisfying, although I'm left heartbroken due to death of someone dear I simply loved how every stake was as real as it would get and as a viewer their struggles, happiness, heartbreaks and everything in between was conveyed beautifully. I am sad to send away this drama but I'm also beyond ecstatic that we could have such a beautiful farewell instead of a rushed and bad one.
I really wanted to watch this but male lead cheating on his current girlfriend is too unpleasant for me in a romance fantasy drama. So, those who are actually watching this, him being a cheating bastard is as distasteful as it sounds or something that we can get over somehow?
I'm f*cking mad at myself for watching this before it's completed. This drama is up to par with a whole movie franchise, it is that good. Just be kind to yourself and wait until it's over.
I thought the ending was perfect, and here I see the comment section is on fire. This was a mother-daughter relationship focused drama from the get go, it never tried to take away from that so the ending was a cherry on top for me. It made sense and it was a nice feeling to see both of them taking that leap of faith in the unknown.
Everything aside I'm so freaking glad that all the lead characters were actually good people after all. And I love how all the women characters were written, aside from the dowager as she was a total insufferable nut job.
p.s. Now I realize there were no overly intimate scenes and that was perfectly fine as I never felt that their emotions were lacking. I might even prefer this type of no intimate skinship as long as we get a real connection through development of the characters.
This was such an easy watch, despite the iffy age gap. I really liked their natural awkwardness through the progression of their relationship, I really appreciate a gradual intimacy rather than inseparable lovers trope after a glance. But everything aside the real mvp for me was Sang Yan, I loved every single thing about him. Plus, albeit it was familial Victor Ma's Lu Si's chemistry was on fire. I'm not particularly supportive of calling grown man/woman cute as in babying them but bickering Sang Yan vs Sang Zhi duo was damn so cute.
Does the Government take volunteers do the censorship reviews for the upcoming dramas because I totally volunteer…
that is smart and I think I want that job, think about all the masterpieces that got butchered by the censorship, they've seen the original content, how lucky and damn them :D
He is not that bad. Tomorrow, YH will not easily give up on him if she’s not under influence of someone else…
Actually, if you love someone and that person stabs you right in the middle of your heart, umm, being wise, patient and understanding is the last thing any sane person would be. Greater your love, greater the disappointment, rage, sadness etc. Your rationale should make you distrust that person even further not fortify your trust, and when it comes to love, your love should make you even more anxious. Of course this is only my point of view and I am no master of emotions and if you can trust your *almost* partner in that situation, props to you.
