oh they hate her frfr. I hope her mother is actually heartless to the core. I hope they don't try to reinvent her halfway through the drama or something.
there's another mini drama that really has nice costumes called Fateful Love. like this one its not very good either, but the wardrobe dept really tried
the FL character had this unbelievable arrogance that was like whew! anyway, we love seeing a woman in a male dominated field. that and the cp's chemistry are the only good things this terribly written drama had going on. watch if you like the actors, but I would not really recommend
watched this a while back, but went back and rewatched some parts bc I really like the ost and this is what mini dramas should be about, well almost this - the non cliche parts. experiment! also their little moments in that lil apartment were to die for
but why have her flirt with him in every other scene then shrink back whenever he flirts back? who wrote that? silly. I hate me a fake sensual fl edit: I spoke too soon, there is some development in ep 10
I really adored the way Chen Siche portrayed her character, it was the main thing that kept me watching till the end even though I didn't think she and the ml had much chemistry. very few actresses can walk that soft yet steely thin line, I look fwd to seeing her helm more dramas. I've seen the ml cai zj in a few other dramas but he still feels a bit too green, or maybe that low-key eager vibe that shines through all his roles is just part of his aura. anyway yes would recommend this one. shout-out to the ml's 3rd bro actor, his arrogance was🤌🤌🤌
he should have told her about her family much earlier, its such a big deal and there was really no reason for him not to. if she too had been smarter with her murder attempts and general scheming, he would have feared and respected her enough to quickly come clean
once you've seen someone play a villain supporting role perfectly, its very likely they're gonna eat in a main protagonist role, like this lead actress. I wanna see more and more actors like her get more opportunities
I watched 5 eps and its just torture, torture and more circumstances to create more torture. no attempts to move…
I watched until ep 14, the torture stops around ep 9 when the guy suddenly decides he deeply loves her again but that's it. the meaningless confusion just went on and on. it's so bad I actually feel bad for the poor writer, they must have been so confused too lmao
when 'man written by a woman' strays too far, women in male dominated fields>>>>> the FL desperately wanted to rule over her family why? they hated her but she still cared about them deeply. none of her reasons for the things she did and wanted were very compelling which in turn made the ml (who I thought looked like chengyi) following submissively behind her look like a fool. I liked it a bit but didn't finish it. you'll like it if you like watching stuff where the woman says come here and the man immediately obeys
I looked for the angst in this drama for so long (bc y'know repub era) that by the time I realized it was just a simplish romcom, nearly 18 eps had passed. smitten ml, serious fl, 'gay' bestie, goofy possibly bi 2ml, adorable kid and crazy 2fl all rolled together to form an easy story. I got bored at some point but would recommend. also see the way they added their mandatory propaganda at the very end like a sprinkle of salt? that's the way it should be done, very rousing.
I watched 5 eps and its just torture, torture and more circumstances to create more torture. no attempts to move the story fwd, start making characters realize things or resolve the obvs misunderstandings just oohh let's have him keep torturing her while he carries out his secret genius plan, and also show her meaningless kindness so the audience doesn't completely write him off. how's any of that interesting? I do really like the drama's moody lighting though and the low-key sets, story aside its really soothing to look at.
edit: I spoke too soon, there is some development in ep 10
