So far, so good. Love the drama -- fluffy and light drama -- with some seriousness in it too. Both leads are quite strong in this drama. Happy to see Miles on-screen again.
Interestingly, I don't understand why the kid's name (actor) is not listed as a cast member here on this website. Doesn't make sense. He's considered to be almost a main character too -- cause most of the drama literally revolves around him -- and his special condition that he has (I am referring to his character Xiao Bao). Therefore, please add him here too on the list!! He deserves to be recognized as well -- since he's on the drama poster too!!
Totally love the drama -- I was surprised at myself -- that I really enjoyed this drama till the end. Though the ending was slightly rushed... :P But still all good! If you haven't watched it yet -- I suggest you do & don't forget -- do not skip the beginning -- because that's where you'll find some parts of the story will take place before the "intro trailer scene" before the actual drama!
Another awesome season for this drama! Loved how the story went and how it also connected back to Season 1 & 2 of the drama itself. I do hope that there'd be another season or two for this drama b/c there are still quite a bit of "loose ends" that aren't completely answered or fulfilled. Especially in regards to who exactly caused the soul suppressing orb to be activated again in this season. Plus there should be more ideas on what the "Xuanling Continent" is all about too. And hoping that they will show what will happen to their son Yu'Er who inherited the soul suppressing orb. It'll be cool if they can go back to the present world (where they first met & started in Season 1) for the next season if there will be any...*hoping & wishing that this can come true*. I mean this ending of season 3 went well too (a bit too fast ending) - but I feel like there should be more to come...from the hints at the end I caught in this season....
I finally watched this drama many years later after it was aired -- partly b/c I first saw clips of it on FB. After watching this and the TV drama special of it (a TV show looking back at the drama itself and almost all the cast members were present) -- I realize that this drama is more than just a drama. Ppl may complain why there's not this or that. But you got to understand that this drama was supposed to depict as real as possible what schools in S. Korea was like. Cause the director wanted to bring out the truth that S.K schools struggle - what students/teachers/parents all really struggle in real life. Yes, it may be acting & all - but the story was told in as much truth - related to reality as much as possible. Yes, schools in any country has school voilence/bullying/parents that have unrealistic expectations of their kids/students struggling to live/survive/dream, etc. So, when I watched this -- I can sense how truly close it was to reality. It brought me tears where it supposed to have in it and all the actions that happened (by the actors/actresses portraying their characters) -- really resonates well with me too. This drama also reminded me of the Japanese drama series -- Gokusen 1-3 plus Gokusen Movie too. Both this one and Gokusen shows how the homeroom teacher of each of the schools never gave up on their students despite their students' difficulties -- backgrounds, etc. Both series also inspires/encourages me to be the teacher that should be there for their students no matter what -- to encourage them, support them, love them unconditionally, etc too. So, in many ways thank you to the director for producing such dramas as these and to all the cast members of this drama - thank you to y'all too. Good job! Well done! You all did well! Fighting!
If you're a big fan of romance dramas, then I would recommend sticking with this and not skipping any scenes,…
Thanks for the info too about this part too! I have been a bit lost in watching this drama at times. Thankfully I am still watching it. Just getting confused about the 2 main characters and some of the supporting characters.
yes it seems that way -- but if you pay attention to the very last second -- where the "pendulum balls" are swinging continuously --- it felt like a cliffhanger than an actual complete ending --> is it real for them all or are they in a game?
I'm a bit confused too. the pendulum balls...mean they were in the game the whole time...?
Actually I feel exactly the same thing too - @Tina12345678 and @catastrophicQueen -- the super very last second of the final episode -- 36 where the "pendulum balls" were still swinging non-stop...have me wondering at they in the game still or is it truly the actual reality of them all gathered at the table over a meal? I think the director did that on purpose -- to let us think if it's real or virtual reality. If there was an extra episode of them getting married or something more -- that allow us to have complete closure - then we'd know if it was a game or reality from it. But there isn't any --- and so it's up to us viewers to guess the truth behind the "pendulum balls" continuous swinging. I noticed it too when I watched the last part two times...still no idea what is real or fake.
This drama thus far (based on what I've watch so far with Eng subs) -- it has me on a major roller coaster...as many said -- what the synopsis of the drama is completely not what one is expected to see only...it is a drama full of many plot twists that makes you long for the next episode to come -- wow...you would think it would go one way and then it throws you into another direction and would catch you off guard. I love all the main leads (the Y4 Lover Boys) + the 2 main FLs...they matched very well...as well as the others who support them along the way/that they can trust. You can say it does have romance -- but that's not the main focus of the story...as when you start -- from the beginning to where I have stopped right now at ep 33...it has got me super on the edge throughout the whole drama. So, if you are looking for some unique storyline, give this drama a try...I guarantee you won't regret watch it!
After watching the last 3 episodes -- wow...these 3 episodes are full of plot twists/roller coaster rides I can't even believe it!! But I made it through and so glad that I watched it till the end! Surprises after surprises... a bit shocked by it all. Anyhow do take time to enjoy the ride!
After finishing watching this drama - I love to give it a 9.5 to 10 points. Why? Because this not only delivered in romance/bromance side of things...but it also includes friendships, family and co-worker relationships - ones that work and one that doesn't. As well, there are a lot of life lessons learnt in this drama - esp about the editor not giving up on their writers from beginning to end -- that this relationship too in the publishing world -- must last for a very long, long time. As Chu Li said in the drama many times "As long as I'm working as an editor, I will never give up on any author. That's why I became an editor in the first place." She demonstrated this many times over and over again throughout the drama -- while many of the other editors either gave up or ignore the writer's true feelings/passion for writing stories in the first place. Not only is "trust" important in this story but also "respect" must be given to everyone and not be taken for granted. From being an author, to being an editor, to being a director to being a good son/daughter/father/mother to elders too and long time friends too. Respect is something that we need to truly understand and grasp in any shape or form. Without it, things will spiral out of control. So, I really appreciated that this drama took the effort to show that many times. Anyways, if you want to watch something different - this one is definitely worth watching for sure. OSTs, acting, etc deserves a round of applause! Great job everyone!
