Yes, Netflix is not stupid to buy license for shows that not many people watch, especially shows that are currently airing. There are several c-dramas are airing now. But Netflix chooses Hidden Love and this show - that speaks volumes

Ah, beauty and the beast moments in ep 8. I laughed so hard. Our heroine single handedly tamed the beast. LOL

Thank all for replying. The fact that the drama is coming to Netflix speaks volumes

And so I thought international fans were not that toxic like in c-drama and k-drama worlds. I was dead wrong. It’s kind of entertaining reading colorful comments. More often than not, these comments seem to try to piss people off, try to stir up fights, bashing dramas, attacking cast, sometimes at personal level. It seems worse for this drama as the rating dropped like a rock. Even though I never watch a drama based on rating in MDL, but this is so blatant. What on earth did the ML do that he encounters this much hate?

The OST is dope!

Ah, the dance scene – the cinematography and choreography were perfect. The beautiful dancers were like fairies. And the dance between our leads was unexpected and dramatically beautiful.
Some complained about the lack of chemistry. I don’t think we should expect chemistry at this point, at least not yet. ML has a soft spot for FL for sure. But it was because he was touched by her devotion toward him.

He really jumped down to rescue her, didn't he? I couldn't believe my eyes and laughed so hard. He landed like Captain America, but without the shield - cringe worthy moment.

Love the story. Love the FL. She's bold, direct but does not come across as cringy.
But, I feel so depressed every time after watching. All the leads are so miserable. The FL is a weirdo alright, having to remember all her damn past lives. The ML & SML rarely smile, having to carry the burdens, past traumas of their lives. The only one who is somewhat cheerful is the sister. And now there are 2 more weirdos.

Intriguing, captivating storyline, outstanding visual effect, outstanding acting from the leads. The ML is ethereal, mesmerizing, like an angel, like he’s walking out of a painting. The FL is cute, young, naïve but strong, smart, bold, and funny (no childish thank God).
Their first meet-cute – cute and sweet. Their second meet-cute – swoon worthy.
With 40 eps, what ahead may be up or down or draggy or whatever, still, borrowing a line from a famous movie I would sum up - “I will return, hungry for more”

The rain, the umbrella, the trip and fall into your arm, the staring… get me every time. Wish they could improvise a bit, something different but still classic? Anyway, I’m fine with just watching Jun Ho walking around in those fancy suits for 16 eps. Damn those suits!

Old trope, cliché at its finest, more entertaining than expected. Love Jun Ho's wardrobe, damn those suites!

Bruh, what's wrong with these K-dramas. Bad guys are either getting off lightly or getting away with everything. This A*hole cheater, you think he'll regret the rest of his life, think again. People don't change that easily. He may feel sad or regret or whatever the F for few weeks, at most few months. Then he'll find another mistress and enjoy his flying high career. The rest are a bunch of losers.

Another xianxia with young, naive FL. However, aside from smart and strong, she's cool, quirky, funny and doesn't act like a dummy 16 years old. I love her "no nonsense" approach.
Both leads have strong charisma and chemistry between them is undeniable from the get go.

Okay, What did love loss do to a man in C-drama land? For TTJ and YQY, the way they coped couldn’t be more different. One went complete psycho. Another looked lost and deadly calm as if he could blow up at any moment.
And when they faced off, we could see how agony they were. Oh well, don't mind me. I just read too much into these characters :-)

Have to say the chemistry between our leads and the 3rd couple was just too much to handle. It melts my TV screen LOL.
And the little Fox, she commanded attention every time she was on-screen. The way she was toying, flirting, pushing, pulling YQY makes my heart hurt for him, poor guy - "why should I love only one man while I can love more than one at once" LOL. And, last but not least, no word can describe their scene on ep 27. It was shot to perfection. I cried a river :-(

Probably an unpopular opinion but I wish the OST was better for a drama at this scale.
Maybe I'm used to sweeping epic OST of some Sageuks

I know, right? :-)

Back to the main leads’ chemistry. In the dream arc, even when they were fighting each other, their eyes screamed I love you. And back to mortal world, FL just gave ML a small kiss on the cheeck and he was like “wow, what was that? That was intense”
Just imagine if she gave him a real kiss, he would have fainted, lol

Agree, I didn't try to compare to big names in Hollywood as it's unfair. However, comparing to other leads, she was out of place. She was 2FL in a big production. If she was just a small supporting character, I won't care less.

Hate to say this again, but the acting of the actress who played 2FL is the weakest link out of otherwise an awesome cast.
In the dream arc, she played a prominent villain role with all ingredients for success. But she failed to deliver. I don’t expect a villain like Cate Blanchett in Thor Ragnarok. But c’mon, where was the murderous look, the look that kills, the chilling smiles when she was walking around killing people? In a spectacular setting from music to CGI, she was nothing but a walking beauty reading from the scripts.
20 eps in, but not too early to give her “Golden Raspberry Awards” for her acting.
