Nahh, the percentage of good kisses in cdramas is way higher than that—I’ve seen plenty. I don’t need Yoona/Junho kisses—they were so gross. I just need a bit more than what we got here.

They weren’t that good either. But, the sweetness was definitely there.

I’ve seen better in cdrama—The Best Thing, First Frost, Falling Into You, You Are My Hero, You Are My Lover Friend, Sniper Butterfly, I May Love You, Prisoner of Beauty, the list goes on—all passed review. This wasn’t a censorship issue. It was a directing choice.

Not necessarily

I watch for both.

It would have been better to have zero kisses instead of a dozen bad kisses. The chemistry was strong enough to stand on its own. These bad kisses bring down the momentum and I have adjusted my rating accordingly. Overall, very good drama though.

All of the above 😆🤣

Agree, this FL is one of my least favorite. Her overly innocent, skittish vibe is off-putting. So, I liked seeing her more assertive here. I was very surprised to see her do such a hot kiss scene. I enjoyed “CEO’s Arrange Marriage” which she was in, but mainly because of the charismatic ML (Liu Xiao Xu, I believe).

CXX’s smile at 10:52 ep 20–There are moments like this when he himself, the real person, seems so into LYX. He smiles so much in response to her throughout this drama. Makes me wonder—Are these spontaneous smiles wherein he’s truly feeling the moment or are these deliberately executed nuances for the character, ie, just acting? Because if they are deliberately executed nuances, then he is one hell of an actor. He’s good. Or, is he really feeling her?

“Were” there, I meant to say

“Were” I meant to say

We’re there any good kisses in Rattan?

Which production company is this—Youku, Mango, iQIYI, or Tencent?

Which is your favorite from 2019?

Warning ⚠️ Controversial opinions:

Lu Yu Xiao is charming, but I think she isn’t skilled enough yet in kissing to deliver a good kiss like Bai Lu or Zhao Lusi. Also, Chen Xing Xu is not a good kisser either, like say, Cheng Lei, Wang An Yu, or Zhang Ling He. CXX is a good actor, but not a kisser who gives you butterflies. Overall, though, the ep 19 kiss was not too bad. It was better than what I expected from them.

Same. Overall, the chemistry is great. I love them as a couple. But, the kisses aren’t giving me butterflies 🦋 🦋🦋 yet.

I love Xie Wei. What do you mean though? The forceful kiss? CXX has his charms, but I’m afraid he’s no ZLH in this respect. The kiss in ep 19 was just okay to me. But, overall, I love this couple’s chemistry.

The Chinese expression seems to be similar to the idea behind the English expression “I’m falling in love with you” or “I’ve fallen for you”—which is stronger than simply liking someone and is the step or feeling that comes before saying “I love you.”

I too am impressed with how sophisticated that VR game is—the numerous storylines and characters and the square footage of the venue. It’s massive, like a theme park. That was a very expensive project for XZY and his business partner, Gong, to undertake.

Ahhh, that makes more sense than the translation I saw on iQIYI. The subtitle said, “I love you” not “I like you.” It sounds like the idea is ‘I’m falling for you, I’m falling in love with you’—a progression of feelings, still getting to know you, still getting stronger.
