im so curious about the backstory behind xie yudi, the roommate (i forgot her name 😭 and just realised she is not listed among the actor here) and zheng yu. the roommate herself seems to have huge admiration and love for zheng yu ☹️

even from the novel i never see when i meet the moon potential, people only hyped it up bc it is part of nanwu trilogy, but if they actually read the novel, the quality is very subpar compared to those two novel.

when i fly towards you novel is also not as good as the drama, it is saved by the changes made by the screenwriter, director and the whole drama team

going through old post and realised this, anyone knows why it change to iqiyi? https://x.com/dramapotatoe/status/1790557097471447281?a=9sf_l_izmCiYazTz1XI&s=19

the last point will forever baffle me. she has live for like 20 years? (idk her exact age), i'm 27 now but i can still use clothing i have when i was 14, be it's blouses, skirts or pants. plus, she lives in china, where fashion is huge, and surely there are thrift shops or affordable clothing options. it's not far-fetched to think she could buy herself 2–3 new pieces of clothing each year either

ray of light, stand by me (2023), go ahead. not necessarily similar but all of these have beautiful message and stories imo. you can also try always home, really cute youth series with lovable leads

same and i love their potrayal in their previous drama, but i still dont think they are strongest actor out there, not even my faves.

strong actor i can think immediately is chengyi, nini, jackson yee, zhao liying, liu yifei.
hence i have no complaint towards chaoyue & winwin acting, they are not the best or strongest out there, but they certainly can act and deliver as per script request, and that is what matters to me

but it wasnt bad either, it serves what is required for the script. they are not stiff and i can felt the emotion they were giving, i def dont think they were the strongest actor out there, but that was also the same for many drama. even for veteran actor.

sometimes they impressed me, sometimes i just accept the perf they giving eventho it doesnt move me, bc it is not stiff and i can see the emotion & variation. as long as the acting is not cringe or giving me strong ick neither it was monotonus, im generally fine with what was given

and when the grandma were scolding her to yan zhou but suddenly smth happen in kitchen, kinda like she may have misheard them

my theory is the mother already get her memories back but is pretending

so where can we watch their variety show

both of them were idols. chaoyue was in girl group 😊

probably bc lots of the viewers have seen him in other drama so we kind of get used to it 😭

i already know i would not be liking when i meet the moon, bc the novel itself is boring, i personally dislike it and couldnt even be bothered to finish it, HL novel has it's charm and the first frost novel is so good, both is very enjoyable read, when i meet the moon on the other hand.... i just remember feeling angry and not liking it

ngl i feel like youth cdrama has always been superior, for the longest time i have always preferred youth cdrama bc many youth kdrama is centred around bullying (nothing wrong with it, i just prefer healing slice of life more)

yup!!

same, i dont think she is the best out there but far from the worst, i have always vibe with her crying scene from love you seven times, tho i never watch chongzi so i cant comment on that

i think it is more than one neighbour, isnt it related to the sorting waste stuff his mom was doing

when zheng yu said that living a normal life is a form of fortune, and questioned why he couldn't be more patient with unfortunate people, only for the camera to pan to his son, i immediately bawled.

that hit so deep. we truly never know what struggles other people are going through, and that serve as a lesson for both zheng yu & me (mins before i was judging him 😭)

jiang mian & gao xing actors have 3 years age gap irl, idk if they will go down the route of them having love line, but im grateful they cast young actors to play the roles, sorry to jiang mian actor but i really thought he is at least 20 😭🙏🏼

the writing is beautiful and im loving all the new character introduced to us today, truly kudo to the writer
