i think they just dont include it here bc i certainly knew this is an adaptation before this drama was aired, and ofc i got that from the news?

it's late but i find LLTG boring like i really dont care about shaoshang family and the early ep kind of centre around them (i stop watching at ep20) and ling buyi annoy me so i had to stop watching

TTEOTM just dont stick to me like i dont feel sad or anything im forcing myself to watch the show which i later drop also it could be bc im not a huge xianxia fan and tteom falls on more complex side, so it's hard for me to understand or get interested

SOKP...I LOVE IT but it cannot hold candle to LYF. especially it get uncomfortable watching through the end of the show, but i still rate it high bc i really enjoy the show although i think i'm quite unsatisfied with the way they developed ml & fl relationship

so overall, for me among these list, LYF is no 1, SOKP no 2, LLTG no 3 and TTEOTM no 4

the movie name is better days, and it was nominated in 2020. she didnt work in hollywood, it was a chinese movie. if you often look for sad chinese movies recs, you might stumble into some of her works because her specialty is sad movies.

if you never heard of her you might never heard of ml in better days either. he too is very much a movie actor, a very successful one too, a member of tfboys (if you knew them) and very much popular in china, more popular than any chinese actors you might knew from drama and a very talented actor. so i do strongly recommend watching better days, just for their acting :)

or you can watch us and them, she play alongside jing boran. If you knew the korean movie soulmate, she is also the actress for the original chinese movie of the same name and she play alongside with the girl who act in you are my hero! all of these personally are my personal faves of her work

that's literally bc she is more a movie actress than a drama actress. if you would just go to her page you can see how much drama she starred in compared to movies.

she has won countless best actress award for her movies. one of her highly praised work is better days, which is probably also her most popular work internationally, and was even nominated for oscar.

she does act better lol she is literally known for her acting

need motivation to start this, is the ost as good and heartwrenching in ALP? ALP ost is like one of the best in cdrama imo

no. falling for someone is something you cant control regardless of who they are, the thing is if you fall for wrong person (forbidden in this case), what one should do is avoid them and not to act on the feelings, THAT is something within one control.

but i seriously think it's ridiculous if a couple have broken up for years and still think they have hold over who their ex dating, or get angry if they friends date the ex (im saying this in general).

It could be bc their ex was trash and the friend stupidly still date the ex, they can get angry for that and still be friends but just let the friend learn the lesson themselves

OR

It could be that they have broken up for years and still had some attachment or feelings towards the ex, so they felt betrayed when their friends date the ex, but in this case they no longer have this right bc the relationship has already end.

lmao i already forgot about this show but just bc he think he did something wrong doesnt mean what he did is wrong.

surely his guilt towards sou is bigger than aoba i guess (i dont remember anymore) and so what?

tysm! cant wait to watch more ep altho im quite struggling with the subs rn

thank you!

does she have instagram?

can anyone explain to me is this a propaganda drama? i love ep 1 and will continue to watch and i dont mind if it propaganda show but i will like to keep it in mind while watching. i am aware of china taiwan conflict (tho not understanding it) so i just want to know is there anything i need to keep in mind while watching so i dont brought those information to irl

anyone know where is the filming location for this movie? barladian is a fake country, right? i'm curious bc i saw my national language there and i wonder which country barladian supposed to refer to

i enjoy it and he fei made me so angry but i still think the whole thing is impossible to plan and it's like a plot holes, did they like plan it within just 15 days? including the whole fake hospital building? is that really possible? but the story is engaging! the fake li muzi make me so angry janice man is such a great actress and of course nini never disappoint

try watching sweet teeth, i think ZXW will able to potray the sweet 'soft' xielian well. when i read the novel i imagined xie lian voice to be very sweet and i was so excited when they announced he will be Xie Lian actor for LA (altho many kind of disagree at that time) bc he has that same sweet voice.

due to the censorship, the reincarnation felt a bit unclear to me. so she was reincarnated (modern setting) but she wrote the drama based on her past life? so when she woke up after showing glimpse of her first life she continue writing and it entails the story after her being reincarnated again and fix her mistakes. later when the story ends, she met again with xie wei (reincarnated). or do they both just writer and editor who share the same name as the characters in her novel? sorry if this is a bit confusing 😅

but technically in the novel there is no modern setting right? she was just reincarnated after she died, make amends and marry xie wei

hahahah true usually i can ignore but this drama just seems to ignore all these details so it's glaringly obvious but im tolerating it as i really enjoy the drama!

thank you. i do understand him it just frustrating at first seeing that, and now i'm all over him.

finally caught up to episode 7 and i'm scared to watch ep8 bc i dont want to see ranjoo and mokha fight. did it happen? (PLS SPOIL ME) i hope we can see mokha morae and ranjoo together being friends and having good senior and junior relationship pls they are all so cute. and, i dont want to see president lee and morae manager face again UGH i rolled my eyes each time they appear on screen.

ANYWAY, before i start watching i heard criticism about park eunbin acting and that make me hesitant to watch (i don't like her acting in attorney woo young woo but i like her in do you like brahms so this review make me scared to watch for fear that i will not enjoy her acting here) BUT, she is doing fine and there's nothing wrong or cringe in her acting nor her voice imo. chae jonghyeop; personally it's my first time seeing ppl saying they not a fan of his acting. i have always thought he is so underrated and love his acting in his previous drama but oh well, i guess it wasnt for everyone. hankyeon has improved a lot from the drama cheer up and i hope he will get more lead roles in the future!

oh. i mean by leaving her alone like after she was rescued from the island. if not for woohak bringing her to their home i wonder how her life would be bc he seems very much not aware she is living in their rooftop at first, so it feels like he is not even keeping an eye on her from afar when she was in the shelter. don't get me wrong i love him but it just annoying to see that after all the searchings throughout these years.

but ofc i havent watch ep7 so my thoughts might change later.
