@Taehyung Kim: it's ok to hate on JX for a few episodes coz her character was kind of maybe not well taken/understood but on or after ep 34, her character development grows and she realized that HT did the right thing for JC, and so it will all be a happy ever after type of ending!

Just little pieces of it, here and there, not the entire ep. One of those was a clip where he was telling a joke about a snake being caught by a former and it was put soaked inside an alcohol jar (that's how the ancient chinese used to keep the snakes to maximize its so called health benefits when they are consumed). So then one Spring day, everything got reverted back, so the snake was free, and then the snake said 'I too am drunk'. (Of course coz it was soaked in alcohol within a jar all this time). I thought that was very funny... the way everyone was looking at him and the way he (XK) said his joke was 😂 hilarious!

OK, I've got the data from Vlinkage on GE S6, ep 3. It's #1 Web Variety show on Aug 15, index at 71.57 vs the #2 ranked which is at 69.28. I don't know if XK is participating in this week Random travel or not...this latter one is the #1 TV variety show for August 15, index at 65.48

No. XK didn't star, i.e not paired with Seven Tan in that drama. It was Jin Boran who was the ML. What some of the commentators said was that they thought that Seven Tan and Jin Boran in the drama "The Road Home" had a very good chemistry and i thought that some of those commentators said that the CP of Seven and XK in ABAY exceeded that of CP in The road home. I didn't watch ThebRoad Home, so i don't know...but I can tell you XK and Seven in this drama, ABAY exceeded far beyond what i thought they would. They are match from heaven (almost 😀)

It is an excellent drama, it will get very interesting as it progresses especially when the FL breaks up with her bf on ep 9 with funny scenes amd what not.

Very wise says I may add!

Oops, my mistake, so it should have been aired ep 3 on Wed's China's time (Each Th at noon). However, the ratings for ep #3, when I went back to the Vlinkage site, I didn't see it posted. I thought I saw that, I was mistaken. So, I guess, it's been #1 and #2 spots (07/31, 08/7, and 08/15). So, the #9 spot was on August 12 which was 4 days after ep #2 was broadcasted which is understandable...I did say it was a team effort (a team. of scaredy cats)

Xu Kai on Twitter is asking his fans to watch ABAY on VIKI or any other of his dramas such as Best Choice Ever, etc. I did download the VIKI app on my macbook and rewatching it some...

Agree 💯

Agreed

The count of 25,493 is the count of the number of people who reviewed the drama...it doesn't mean the number of views (I may have misunderstood your point)

Yeah, i like the actor Zhou David (Da Wei)...I thought the pair was fun to watch and give the drama some comedy filled moments. The gal, I wonder if she's a singer or whether she really sang her songs in the drama coz she was very good at them.

Yep, that's the reality of filming...it carries risks...I wish they'd use more stunts but they try to save up their budget so the actors to gain favors in the sight of the directors they'd do those actions themselves I suppose.

Or it might also show that he (Chang He) values her very much whereas the other guy (HT) that she's been in love all her life has been rude to her and not giving her any consideration or whatsoever...quite a contrast though😄

Wow, the wedding drawing, the one with both on the sides are like a photograph, it was drawn so well...I also like the other wedding drawing, her holding him. They are really cute drawings! Thanks for sharing them here!

👍Enjoy

They all ended up together and doing so well, even building an international standard type of hotel in the remote village of the mom's... the leads will eventually get married...so what else do you expect to improve the end to make it better?😀

This drama is a family genre. The leads have very good chemistry, i love them. The mom had quite a big screen time. The story is very good but if you're waiting for an usual love story then it might not be your cup of tea. This one keeps you in suspension about how the leads fall in love with each other, which to me was keeping it interesting. It was a very good watch for me.

Probably so

@Rich, there are 2 types of dramas: short dramas literally they are classified as such whose durations are up to 24 episodes. The other standardized type is between 31 - 40 episodes. ABAY needs the narratives of its characters development and i thought they aren't long enough for me. I like large number of episodes, don't like movies so my preference is long dramas coz I like the narratives of the people involved. ABAY is an excellent drama with good stories but if you feel it's too long for your taste, there are many shorter choices for you, so go for it.
