Aww thanks!💗I'll definitely post a full review on SOM and would love to discuss the drama on the page with you and others. I'm excited to watch it, SWL & ZJM gonna look so good together 🤩.
I know most of us are angry at Jin Zhao for being an abandoner while also being in love with Mumu but for a second…
Yeah exactly! The only thing that i'm unable to wrap my head around is the separation arc of 6 years!! They could have reduced the time in half when Jin zhao was already showing improvement when he was doing his rehabilitation in Thailand .
typical modern cdrama writer's behaviour 🤷♀️ Long separation arc for no justifiable reason at all 🙆♀️
for real, like i understand that the plot needs them to grow but 6 years feels logically inconsistent . Zhao was already working so hard on his recovery in Thailand and seeing results—why keep them apart for over half a decade?? Six years is just too much angst for my heart to handle rn!!!!
Just finished watching Episodes 21 & 22 and I’m honestly feeling so empty right now. My heart is just heavy for both of them; the acting was raw and the pain felt incredibly real today.
However, I’m feeling really conflicted about the 6-year separation arc. To be honest, it doesn't make much sense to me—it feels a bit forced and excessive. Zhao’s leg was already showing signs of improvement back when he was doing his rehabilitation in Thailand, so why keep them apart for over half a decade?🙂 They could have easily reduced the time jump and still shown their growth. Six years is a lifetime of missed moments, and it’s hard to wrap my head around why the writers felt it needed to be that long💔. Anyone else also struggling to justify the timeline !!???
The hate Esther is getting for Speed and Love is reaching laughable levels. People are mad that she’s acting... exactly like her character? A naive 20-year-old isn't supposed to be a master of romance; she's playing the role with perfect accuracy to the source material. Also, chemistry requires two people—He Yu is amazing, but he’s able to be that 'cool' because Esther is the perfect counterpart to his energy.
It’s time to stop discrediting her hard work and the crew's efforts just to be negative. And honestly, if you can't stop hating on her or if you just don't like her, then simply stop watching the drama. Go and watch something that matches your taste instead of spreading hate here. Life is too short to spend it nitpicking a performance that is clearly doing justice to the novel .
I have not seen any of He Yu’s dramas where he played main lead before this one, and he definitely blew me away…
I couldn't agree more! It’s so refreshing to see someone acknowledge that chemistry is a two-way street. He Yu is a revelation as Zhao Zhao, but you're 100% right—it wouldn't work if Esther wasn't mirroring that energy perfectly. They both bring out the best in each other. Let’s keep enjoying this gem and ignore the noise! 🥂
💯 but this separation hopefully will make their relationship stronger when they get back together.
Exactly! That’s the only thought getting me through these episodes! The reunion is going to be so healing. It’s just so hard seeing Jin Zhao go through this alone in the meantime. He needs her more than he realizes! 🤧
I’m honestly sad after Eps 19 & 20. The fact that Mumu has no idea Jin Zhao is struggling through leg rehabilitation is killing me. He’s sitting there feeling insecure, wondering if he’ll ever be the same, and that’s exactly why he’s ghosting her. He isn't just fighting a physical injury; he’s fighting the fear that he isn't 'enough' for Jiang Mu anymore! (·•᷄_•᷅ )
He knows Mumu would stay by his side in a heartbeat regardless, but his love for her is so selfless that he refuses to let her become his 'caregiver.' He doesn't want to be a burden, but little does he know, his silence is hurting her way more than the truth ever could!😭

We're going to have so much to unpack once this starts dropping .

Are you planning on live-watching the episodes or after they are completely released ??
