Favourite actor from Love Has Fireworks. She has a great on-screen presence.

yes yes and yes

she is the one that jumps off the building as she mourns her mother's death. the ML has a premonition of this so he prevents the accident in ep 1

so real you saying this for this drama <3

1. It is an extremely unique story.
2. Sci-Fi elements actually explained logically that blow your mind.
3. Has some really amazing moments and scenes (ep 27 god of poetry for example).
4. Super super intelligent storyline and how it pieces all the parts together towards the end.
5. Cool fight scenes
6. Funny banter between characters (eg. Hai Tang Duo Duo & ML (later half)
7. Acting from all actors is great
8. Mystery and suspense trying to work thing out
9. Cool characters
10. One of the best C-dramas of all time.

22 eps in and it's a real dumpster fire of a drama. These two female leads are two of my favourite actresses but this story line is straight up bad.

Ai Wei goes to divorce her husband and the husband convinces her to throw Jiang Zi under the bus with abuse allegations, since the physical abuse by Ai Wei's husband was leaked to the media. The two FL's fall out... and honestly can't even be bothered to write all the lame things that happen after that. I think this doesn't even live up to the quality of a vertical/micro drama, which is crazy. No depth of emotion, no real lessons being learned, just a waste of film reel. Ugh. Dropped.

P.S Yang Shou probably the best character yet such a background/side character that he doesn't redeem the drama at all.

i dare say you'll be fast forwarding a lot of stuff. completely agree about your IQIYI comment haha

haha valid

Wan Qian is an amazing actress but for me she doesn't save this drama. Can't speak for whether you will like it, but I didn't personally enjoy the first 18 eps. Bit too heavy with the melodramatic aspects of a broken marriage imo. I think someone would have to LOVE some of the actors to push through a lot of it (or skip parts). I was thinking whyy did they bother to make this drama of such mediocre quality when these actresses could have been actually staring in other quality productions. Ah well

If it were a Thai drama of course that would have been possible but this is a Chinese drama from two very famous actors so it's going to conform to all the societal norms.

i've watched up to ep 18 and hard no to your question. The story focuses on Jiang Zi's journey as a blogger. She develops a romantic relationship with Luo Xin (ML) and there are scenes of their romantic journey.

Ai Wei's problematic relationship with her husband is a big focus of the story but it's more about her inner world not being ideal compared to her polished public image. Wu Han seems to be the love interest that will bloom after ep 18 for Ai Wei.

Jiang Zi helps Ai Wei but in a strictly plutonic and non-romantic way; so no GL sorry.

haha absolutely valid and fair! :) thanks for your response 🙂

Who Rules the World definitely - smart ML, at times fun and great drama (last 10 eps dragged and i skipped most) but for me up there with SSS and JOL. See it's on your PTW list, and personally would say it has a pretty good vibe and COULD appeal to your likes.

I think everyone should judge dramas for themselves. what appeals to xingye might not appeal to you, and visa versa, you might love legend of fei (like I did). we as humans have 20+ years of personal experiences and what touches your heart is going to be completely unique to you, so I'd recommend giving legend of fei a go - so what if you "waste" 40 min on an episode. you'll understand if its a drama for you or not from how you like the characters! :)

I really liked your comparison to JOL - absolutely accurate.

Li Chun Gang was really the GOAT for his character growth. It was a beautiful scene when he overcame his trauma from his past. <3

i gotta resound with your sentiment and found Season 1 actually far superior in so many ways. It's really surprising to me how many people have liked S2 more.

HOOWW is Vengo Gao not the ML with Xin Zhi Lei?! Would have loved that combo! Still look forward to this immensely!

I just watched him on 'Hello Saturday' (kinda like a gameshow) and his voice is a lot higher intonated when speaks. It's still the same voice (as he doesn't have a dubber attributed to him for this role) but I think he has intentionally spoken in a lower range for the role and I'd also suspect the production studio have enhanced the bass aspect of his voice for the drama.

have watched 4 eps and enjoying it a lot. FL and ML are a joy to watch as are the fight scenes.

an enigmatic actor. big fan. <3
