Sometimes, I adore timid and awkward characters but I guess it isn’t the case with Lou for me rn. I don’t hate the actor but I definitely dislike his character. Anyway, at least.. perk is I get to reduce a bit of phone screentime as I skip his scenes. Lol

E11: This episode showcased the wit and bravery of FL. She literally turned into a war strategist — calm and collected — holding the fort. I’m stanning real hard!

Yes, I get it but I guess I really just dislike his character. Nothing against the actor too because it’s prolly just his makeup and styling? But yeah, he looks like way too much of a kid for me to enjoy watching him get infatuated with CSS.

Yep! Being lead girl for a Zhang Yimou production is a brand itself and that title itself is enough for her talent to be sought by other big productions. In a way, she is lucky too but if course, ZYM won’t even choose her if he hasn’t seen any potential in her so obviously, the skills is there already for her to begin with. One of the younger gen that is critically acclaimed now is probably Zhou Dongyu.

Aside from the mother, the only complaint I have in this show is that Lou kid. I understand that the characters are technically still teenagers but the actor is really looking like he’s a 12-year old kid. Whenever I see him on screen, I don’t know why but I can’t take him seriously and it’s honestly making me cringe. I probably sound mean but it is what it is for me! 😭

Yep! I get what you are saying. It’s not about downplaying other celebrities at all or even overpraising Ni Ni’s talent but it’s a fact that what she has right now under her name is something anyone would want to have. Also, even if she ain’t liuliang or at times, even labeled underrated (especially by international community), she is actually doing very, very well in their industry. Even her fashion resources say it all. Always on the cover of top magazines. Always wearing haute couture. People might think she is not that popular but I think she has enough influence and recognition in China not to be bothered at all with having not the biggest fandom — it’s because with or without the fanbase, it’s the brands and productions that seek for her.

Would prolly skip those scenes too then (like I did in E9)!

E9: Such a wholesome episode! Would have been a perfect one if not for the screentime of FL’s mother. Anyway, I like Old Madam Wan’s character so far. What a wise woman befitting of her role in her family as their pillar! Can’t say the same for the Cheng Family having such a grandmother like that and FL’s mother being an unreasonable control freak. Meanwhile, I’m happy to finally see the leads interacting. I love their moments this episode fr! Like, the whole time, I was just literally smiling as I watched their interactions.

That got me thrilled when I saw it on twitter, ngl! She was insane in those cuts!

Agree! Not to mention, not everyone could be a movie actor in China. It’s hard to star in a mainstream series (main drama) but someone told me before it’s even tougher to enter film industry there. With these things taken into consideration, it’s not that Ni Ni doesn’t get as much resources but she actually just has the luxury to take her time on choosing her next roles.

Not really a fan of GJ but I’m so gonna watch this for my Mimi (+omg I just saw the posters and they both look good in those — but Mimi extra good in those posters).

Jeon Yeobeen was supposed to cameo here alongside Uhm Tae Goo but she wasn’t able to because of her schedule. It’s a pity really (and having awareness of that information saddens me as a fan lol)! :(

Zhao Lusi has been a familiar face for me. I’ve seen her in some of her roles — as supporting and main (mostly the former... but I have yet to really get that one character from her to adore). One thing is for certain, I have always seen the potential in her acting! Her portrayal in Love Like the Galaxy is definitely an instant love for me though. Finally, I have a work from her that has me enthralled! She’s doing a great job fr! In conclusion, I’m thrilled to ‘re-discover’ her this year!

Is the second part gonna be out immediately once the 27 episodes of Part 1 are released?

This is literally amazing! I watched this without any expectation (didn’t even watch the trailer but the promo still cuts piqued my interest) and now, I regret it because I have to wait weekly until 27 episodes are fully unlocked. I adore the FL so much! My poor baby deserves the world! Wishing her all the love she could receive!

Just read that she’s getting married this November! Congratulations Hwang Bora!

Some actors (especially other idol actors) would prolly want to have a filmography like his — it shows range and not to mention, he’s been working with A-list hallyu and chungmuro actors.

I’m gonna watch this for Kim Minho! Hopefully, it gets subbed!

He was such a scene stealer in Swing Kids!

E8: This was such a disappointing episode to watch! It’s clear that Babi got swayed by the girl’s confession and I just felt betrayed for some reason. Anyway, I just hope the best for Yumi! I did want YuBi to be endgame but it isn’t looking like it would be them after watching this episode where his world got shaken by the confession of another girl. My girl, Yumi, deserves better Mr. Babi and if you can’t be that, then we (her cell village and I) don’t want you too!

But really, it just sucks to see a parallel in the dialogue of Yumi and Daeun when they thank him for everything and then, we only see the activity of his cell village as he reacted on the latter — even if that gratitude wasn’t the main reason of that earthquake, it still leaves a bitter taste since it was the onset of the whole confession.
