does this drama have any lesbian romance? i didn't see any lgbtq tags but if there's even a little i'm definitely…
Hopefully someone more knowledgeable can elaborate on this, because I'm also curious. It does seem like it was originally produced and broadcast in China. AFAIK When We Met was also produced in China as is the ongoing YouTube series Who Knows Girls L and they're both explicitly lesbian with proper love scenes. Maybe things are changing? Sometimes government suppression leads to exaggerated self censorship.
A very good series even though it's short the ending was so touching
Agreed. My only criticism is the format. I wish they would re-cut it into a short film. Having the story constantly interrupted by 5 mins of beginning and end titles is infuriating.
when they kiss in a chinese drama 🥳but it’s a kill your gays trope🥲🔫
I'm not sure I'd fault it for the dying. Cancer gets us all after all, straight and gay alike. At least she found love and died happy next to her girlfriend.

I just finished it and I'm still in tears, and yes no doubt about the wlw romance. We even got a love scene. I hadn't realized it when I first posted, but He Lei is also the lead of When We Met:

Homosexuality is illegal in China, so you will seldom see any sex, or even kissing, in Chinese LGBTQ media. That being said this series is overtly gay, the leads boss is in a relationship with another woman who runs their local lesbian bar (called "Her", with the tagline "Where women meet" 😄).
I was watching The Secret of Girls and thought she felt familiar, turns out she was also one of the leads in When We Met. A rising star in GL for sure! Keep it up He Lei! :D
I've watched the first 8 episodes and so far I think it's great. The 8th ep ends on a real cliffhanger. For a Chinese series this is fairly explicit in its gayness, but I don't have high hopes for any love scenes.
This is one of those little gems that prove that you can make something special even on a shoestring budget, as long as you have good actors and a decent script.
I find it quite interesting. The first episodes are the weakest, but it gets better later on.
I like that the main characters are so ambiguous. They are basically really good people that still can't keep from hurting each other. It feels more realistic compared to many other dramas. Also, all the love scenes are surprisingly steamy.
Especially Dalan's fantasy in the bathroom with Lalin in episode 9. This is one of the best sex scenes in any Thai GL so far IMO. I mean, it actually looks like they are doing it for real and enjoying it, their acting really sells it. The setting also helps since it explains why they keep their clothes on. 😄

The production values can't hold a candle to When We Met, but the actors are good and the story is well told and very touching.
