We still have 16 episodes to go and I’ve been looking at the stills in the end credits and BTS and I can’t see much of YS. It looks like DL has plenty of scenes with JJ though.
So depressed. The OTP on screen are what I live for. I’ll watch it for sure but without YS there’s a strong possibility a lot of fast forwarding will go on. YS for the win.
I'm addictted this drama. Yuan Shuai is really freaking adorable, handsome and elegent. I can see his 10 years…
He really is excellent! I also noticed he is elegant, I think it must be because he’s a dancer he has great posture. You notice it with Yang Yang too.
He also seems mature, so he’s believable in this role. Also, I noticed he and Bai Lu don’t seem self conscious about their onscreen kissing/flirting, their actions are natural and believable. Lots of Chinese actors are so self aware during intimate scenes that it looks awkward. This drama is the best rom com I’ve seen by far.
Urgh, catching up now in anticipation of Sunday and the second couple are beyond awful. Their background music! Her idiocy! Her behaving like a 12 year old! His boring personality!
I just saw an Instagram video which had ‘MH is involved in her dad’s death’ on the screen in Chinese - it’s either a spoiler or guess. But then there’s a scene where Du Lei’s sister said that Jiang Jun has only herself and MH to blame for her situation (translation is more like end of the road/dead end).
I really hope they don’t mess up the end and separate our leads!
Pretty sure that they're finally gonna meet their 'perfect match' from Xiao Chuan's dating app and Jiang Jun is…
From the trailers, where it looks to be a happy ending with YS using doggy to propose, I get the feeling that the angst is fairly minimal. I see that she slaps him, but that could be a minor blip since there are no scenes of either ML or FL dying of misery, which in a kdrama you would see previews of by now.
I find many modern C-dramas are happy to forgo the noble idiocy trope and just serve up lots of episodes where the main couple learn to lean on each other and face life’s problems together. By the end, they’re normally so deeply in love that marriage is imminent. Hopefully that’s what we will get here. I think we will see JJ face trials professionally and grow with YS’s help, and that they find in each other enough love to make up for the ten years they have been apart. Rarely have I seen the childhood friends trope used so believably and effectively. You really feel like they belong together and they are only truly themselves in the others presence. God, I love this drama.
As an aside, I’m not up to date, but is the only drama for the second couple that his app says they’re not compatible? I mean, they have no chemistry, no real personalities and now they have a nothingy storyline too? Wow. Just how did that happen.

In summary, Luo Yun Xi is amazing. Haha
Thank god their screen time is minimal.
