netflix is picking up alot more cdramas these days.

Legend of Zang Hai is also pretty good imo. If following both it means you get 3-4 eps pre day

if you liked Hidden Love and The First Frost then check out When I Fly Towards You, it's based on a novel by the same author.

other notable dramas I'd recommend
Joy of Life
Reset
Meet Yourself
The Long Ballad
You are My Glory
Crossfire

you should like 17 and 18

They have toxic beauty standards and idolize their plastic feminine flower boys.

I'm also waiting on TPoB and LoZH. So many good dramas. We are getting fed well this summer.

Song Zu Er has a record for Sad Endings too.

that's not Xiao Qiao. it's Wei Yan's maid.

calm before the storm

this is what I thought too. to bend waist means to bow.

I like the drama, but Zhang Jing Yi's dubbed voice caught me off guard. I wish they would use her own voice to dub.

basically the same role as the one he played in joy of life

it was scheming by WS's mother to make it look like XQ damaged WS's precious box. the misunderstanding was cleared up fast so don't worry.

it starts out pretty serious, comedy gets added in later when the chemistry between ML and FL heats up.

to make sure he won't go to war against her family. That was the purpose of her marriage after all.

The FL is not as innocent as you make her out to be. She is whip smart and her greatest strength is knowing how to manipulate people and interpersonal relationships to her will. She is acting like a teen with a crush because it is the most effective way to gain trust from Wei Shao.

you never know tho, I've watched 3 historical dramas with Song Zu Er as female lead. All are supposed to have HE based on the source material but in all 3 dramas the scriptwriters went full retarded and changed to SE.

in ep17 she explained it when the ML fell asleep in her arms. (around 17:30 mark) She's trying to get closer to him so he'll get closer to her. It's not like she suddenly transitioned to a lovesick wife but she is trying to turn up the heat to get him to like her more.

Ya, I've watched her in 3 dramas up to now. The Demon Hunter's Romance, Novoland: Eagle Flag, and The Dark Lord. All 3 dramas are supposed to have happy endings based on the source material I believe. However the scriptwriters all made them into sad endings. I was so pissed.

Now that I think about it, none of the Song Zu Er dramas I've watched have happy endings. Even when the source material has happy ending, the scriptwriters went full retarded. I really hope this drama will break the curse.
