There are projects that strike you from the very first moment. Those that touch every tiny part of your soul. Those that bring solace and peace. Love between lines... you are such a jewel to me, one I will carry in my heart for a very long time...
Everything worked here: from the directing, editing, cinematography, script, dazzling soundtrack, and even the two main actors. Lu Yu Xiao and Chen Xing Xu are a revelation for me, but bringing them together in one project turned out to be something unimaginably incredible. Such chemistry and naturalness is a once-in-a-million occurrence, and they raised the bar incredibly high, just like the entire project.
Hu Xiu and Xiao Zhi Yu – you became a home full of love and respect for each other, you showed me how to love and be loved. I will miss you terribly. 🥺
I think the only positive element of this series was the cast—the main actors and the rest. They were truly lovely to watch, but that's about it.
I love the fake relationship/marriage angle in shows, but they didn't live up to even a shred of their potential. They were in a fake relationship that didn't deliver any plot—there was no shared apartment, which I think should have been. And the scenes at the house were completely wasted, which hurts even more because the house was the main storyline.
The second couple could have been a great alternative to the main characters, but again, the plot was dragged out by the infatuation with the main character.
I have a feeling I was watching the show and something was supposedly happening, but in reality, nothing happened, because even that love is hard to believe. Maybe if the mascot angle had appeared at the end, after they'd already fallen in love? For me, the only reason they were together was because they met as children.
I'm enjoying watching these incredible court cases, which (for me) aren't obvious, or at least differ from those I've encountered before in TV series.
I'm enjoying the little nuances in the main characters' relationships, and I'll say it again – I love the subtlety of their approach. If we stay like this until the end, it will be a fantastic journey for me, especially since I wasn't expecting any innuendo at first.
Oh, these episodes fly by like water; I don't even notice the minutes. While the case itself might not have been so gripping, I'm proud of how her ex's ass gets beaten every time. The guy needs to be fired if he keeps losing, and it's actually interesting that they've decided to put him on the other side again. Interesting move.
The ex-wife issue... until now, I've been hesitant to side with her, but the line about him still being with her would have been his child is an unacceptable blow to me. I hope he understands that there's no point in dwelling on the past and that we need to move on.
As for the main relationships, I love the scene where the attorney calls her. The whole process of learning to argue, pointing out mistakes, and fixing them—I admire her.
The subtlety in this series is incredible, in every aspect.
Netflix doesn't have a romance tag, and I can see here "co-worker's relationship," so this might just…
I must have been blind when I watched the trailer, because you can really feel a different energy there. I didn't care about the tags, but... I don't know, I was convinced it would be something like 'Good Partner,' but as a woman and a man, a mentor and a student. And basically, from the first episode, I know how wrong I was. But it doesn't bother me; if they do embark on a romance, I seriously doubt it will dominate the plot. The legal matters will remain at the forefront; I just hope they continue to surprise us with them.
Besides, I don't want to say that if they don't embark on a romance, it will ruin their chemistry. Right now, I really like their chemistry, and this relationship is built on their fascination and weakness for each other. They don't necessarily need to be in a relationship to grab attention.
It's fiction so I'm not bothered per se (Love Scout is a fave and I'm currently watching 2 other age gap dramas…
Oh, Love Scout will remain one of the best series I've ever watched. ✨
Hmm, for me, an office is an office, and it doesn't matter that it's a legal drama. One thing that's certain so far is that they have incredible chemistry; the question is how they'll utilize it and which path they'll take.
I'm amused by the arguments that they shouldn't have a romance between the boss and the employee... hello. Every show with an office romance ends with that, but this one seems to be a problem for others. I'd rather everyone admit that the potential age difference bothers them, not a scandalous workplace romance.
Not to mention the fact that we're still unsure about the relationship in future episodes. But apparently, that was mentioned at the press conference, right?
I'm currently watching a few series, but none have stirred emotions in me like BTB. I think the last time I felt…
Oh, I saw the viewership increase, wow. These are going to be interesting weeks.
Besides, the series has been a hit on Netflix since the very first episode. In my country, it's rare for a Korean series to be in the top 10, but here it's been on the list since last week.
I'm currently watching a few series, but none have stirred emotions in me like BTB. I think the last time I felt that way was when I watched WTPR. Oh, definitely.
BTB has that certain something. It's a legal drama, but more... human? One that hits you right in the heart. So far, every case has left a lump in my throat. Initially,
I wasn't sure what the main characters' relationship would be like, but damn... I'm hooked. They're definitely not building a mentor-student relationship; there's something more. This fourth episode showed it. The chemistry is fantastic, I'm surprised. I haven't been this excited about what happens next, their stories, their relationship, and the legal cases they'll pursue.
unfortunately i don't know. Viu is probably available in several regions, but i don't know the details. i noticed that when it appears on Viu, it also appears on Viki. we'll see how it is here.
