Reset is the only Chinese drama I've watched. I liked it because, in addition to its sensational plot, it perhaps…
Who says china is not a democracy? Maybe not in Westerns paradigm, but for popular interests to be practiced by government is much more possible in China then in western countries, and not for a pompous choice such as who will be the president, but in other important political decisions, since the government is not controlled by their industry, it's the other way around. Besides, no dictatorship in the world could keep almost 1.5 billion citizens subdued by force, as you seem to assume. You should really study more about China and their political system. As to police surveillance... that's honestly western right wing defenders' most wet dream, I really don't get where you're coming from...
I really think Namhom was not the most toxic character. She should be more sincere and honest, indeed, but I think people just had unrealistic expectations towards her and no one really accepted her for who she was. I don't see it as a bad thing to want to be with several people. But people would only really love her if she tried to be someone else... I think Fon and Bua were the toxic ones. Oh and wow I didn't think about how Fon was overcompensating, makes so much sense!
to be honest, I wish they showed more of Palace intrigues and our FL acting out. But we only got to see her doing the right thing... PS : is it that hard to actually stablish a romance between Xuening (FL) and the princess? instead of all the insinuations and dog whistles ...
This caught me and I was mesmerized! The plot was great, with such twists and turns. I had so much fun and enjoyed the heroine's journey so much! it's a delight to see such bold productions.
