that might've been one of the reasons
but another one was definitely to give the ML and his crew a chance to interact more with him to gain more wisdom (for example, Chen JingDian saw a lot of growth and it brought back DouZi; ML was able to study for the exam)
I think another was to build up to the ML/FL break (they had their issues before, and this time ML really marinated on it but FL just took his odd behavior as stress from Manager Sun...and didn't realize until he brought up the break)

and yah ML's demeanor really did change a lot! although, I think they put that last bit in just for laughs (when they guy asks for time off and ML is like "wuat, y u again")

LOLLL I thought "engaged" in the summary meant like "about to marry" but its "brought in" in this context

seems like a melodrama though...(someone correct me if I'm wrong!)

yesss the time skip was so weirdddd it just says "1 year later" in the drama but it's hard to believe that ML became manager already
I think I came to terms with it, though, after remembering that the Manger Sun was out :(. So maybe they had a temp manager and Manager Sun recommended ML (ML probably took the Star Training Program...I think he mentioned way earlier that it takes half a year to complete...which probably fast-tracked him)

LOLL big RIP thanks for explanation

wait if they just started filming December last year (2021)...I have a feeling we won't see the turn around time that quick...looking at the quality of the poster

LOLL this sounds like a mashup of She is the One (2021) and Perfect and Casual (2020)?

Definitely!
that was just my opinion. I wrote this comment when I was starting to think he had no bottom line. Not sure how far you got, but when he kind of gave up (like at least gave her space) after the soccer field, I thought that showed that he knew when to stop, so my impression of ML went up after that

oooh just noticed the update to the summary. 10/10, matches the tone of the drama too. thanks whoever did that

and to explain more, the fansubs I feel like are only max a day late (as I'm typing now, today's eps posted 14 hrs ago have not been subed yet but yesterdays one was) ...which I think is fast for fansubs. and the translations are good too (some parts have explanations...not just idioms but cultural knowledge too) and I think they're pretty accurate...I've used them for the past 4 eps or so

there is romance, imo ML is pretty annoying/has questionable behavior towards FL at first but it gets good...at least for a bit....I'm still hoping he won't be such a simp by the end of the drama LOLLL but maybe its just his personality. FL has a good character, I'm liking her more and more

yah honestly I'm really not a fan of that couple...they're taking up a good amount of screentime and not really adding to the story

haha yah basically. But I think this drama is focused on self growth so if you are ok with waiting for his growth then I think it'll be worth it.

LOLLL I just started the 2nd ep
its total chaos...exactly what you imagine a 2015 fantasy to be...storyline, job descriptions, character decisions, just these characters' general synthesis of information (connecting the dots of what they see and what they understand) makes no sense but at least it's entertaining for now

nnoooo I'm so upset...I thought we could avoid the "trust is broken because of lies regarding position/power" trope. It was going so well when he was preparing to admit it at the soccer field. I guess we'll see what happens in tomorrow's ep

this is a really good drama: good production and acting. but ngl, if I saw the ML in real life I would classify him as a creep. Chasing a girl through her mom, he didn't quit his job because he realized he could see her once in a while and befriend her mom, continuously sending text messages even when she doesn't reply, his voice is shaky when she talks to him, he asks for a picture of her just so he can look at her, she keeps rejecting him and putting him down but he still thinks she is a goddess. wth is this. And he's good at serving others and being humble, but if he suffers enough, he bursts. There's more specific situations but I don't want to spoil
Forget a manipulative overbearing CEO. A spineless creep is disturbing too.

I do like how he's a good friend and how he genuinely befriends the aunties. But I can't imagine anything good coming out of a romance where he is in his life. I'm waiting for him to grow a spine and act more normal...which honestly will take a while. Meanwhile, the witty comedy and realism of reality versus dreams makes it good enough to keep watching.

LOLL I tried to watch he compilation but this storyline is all over the place
I like the camera quality and mostly good audio...but this drama is like reading the plot summary of a movie in Wikipedia...not very enjoyable/relaxing. So I ended up dropping 1/3 of the way even though its only 30 min LOLL

ep 24 & 25 my blood is fricken boiling from this side story...those unfilial grown-ass adult children stealing money from their own dad when their dad is such a good person

yah I'm definitely liking it more than I liked the poster (I thought it was going to be a melo-slice of life drama??) it is a bit slice of life, some light/irony/witty laughs. I don't think there's eng sub yet, which sucks because I'm not 1000% fluent. Soundtrack is fitting aight though, to set the mood of what is happening. I've only watched 2 eps. Pacing is great (although 2 eps don't say much)...if they keep it consistent, I can see it go for 40 eps
I also like the set up of the ML being kind and righteous (and his own business owner) and the FL being bossy and righteous (and not the CEO).

Totally agree!!!

subs on this link are not that good tbh (as of now)...lots of things missing. but if you understand at least a bit of Chinese, its good enough
thanks for the post though!
