π―ποΈπ€Nothing like in the reviews, honestly the infatuation of FL dragged so much and completely ignored…
no but real. i like the show but it did drag. like ok we get it... you want SML to be happy. but GIRL LOOK IN FRONT OF YOU. ML is a hottie and he wants you ππ
I really cried on the 'almost confession' scene (when the tourist was missing then they were searching for them…
no but i agree!! he was so kind and amazing... i wouldve been trying to date him sooner if i was her. we were robbed of their relationship. but i also think that the whole point of making her take forever to realize her feelings is bc she didnt want to lose him as a friend. i mean she didnt confess to SML for fear of him not liking her back and losing him as a friend as a result. i think she knew that ML liked her and she had some feelings for him, but she didnt want to accept them bc of that. i mean if it doesnt work out then awkward for them all. and i think thst became stronger when she saw her bestie and the MLs bestie relationship crash and burn when he cheated. i wish we had more eps of them dating tho. they were and jusg are so cuteeee.
no but fr. their relationship IS the plot. this wasnt a show that was going to throw shit at the leads relationship and have them persevere everything alone. like this wasnt a relationship full of drama. its just a simple, straightforward romance and relationship. thats why i loved it so much. its so real, bc not everyone has a relationship where its only you and your partner fighting against everyone just to be together. this is just a natural, easy going relationship where everyone knew they would be together bc they were meant to be.
also, whats w the comparison to hidden love in the reviews... if im being totally honest, the shows are the same, mostly focusing on the romance w no real plot or struggles for the leads. theyre both really good bc they just focus on the leads relationship, with a few problems here and there that get solved rather quickly. these shows were made to feed fans w delulu relationship scenarios ππ ngl a lot of cdramas are like this... its not new imo, but theyre still so addicting to me lol. cdramas are for romance, kdramas are for plot like revenge or thriller and everything else is a mix of everything.
i think you make some sense w his comeback. but like others have mentioned, he trained daily, and kept up w the game even when he was retired. which is why he knew who yin guo was before meeting her officially. i think its insinuating that hes always wanted to go back but had no real solid decision of if he should or not, so he trained as if he was. i mean in the first few episodes he best a champion to win money to take yin guo on a date. i thought it was a cute drama tho lol
i think some ppl are more opposed to kinship than others. not only that but PDA, which yiyang wanted a lot lol. i thought it was weird too, but then i thought, if it were me, i wouldnt want to be all up on my bf in public either. and in private moments, i felt she was just shy bc of what it could lead to. after all he is older than her, so he may not be shy whether he has experience or not, but she is shy bc he is overly loving while she isnt if that makes sense. i liked it, it was so cute. but i dont think they only interacted w chinese ppl. yiyang had many friends/acquaintances there, but i think most international ppl tend to find others they can connect with from their home country. im the same, i tend to gravitate to ppl who speak spanish bc its comfortable for me, but i still interact w locals when i travel.
afaik not based on a real story stop making up thingsi watched and i'd describe it as it is presented, hopefulness…
its not realistic to stay with someone you truly love? this plot wasnt the characters hoping it will get better. its the main leads loving each other and wanting to stay with each other despite hardships. even if they have hard times, whether its work, school, family or money, theyll be fine as long as theyre together. why? bc theyre both willing to make it work, and theyre both willing to provide time, energy etc into their future...
its not that they didnt want to have happy moments, its that sometimes happy moments dont seem happy in that moment because of other worries. ML was stressed about wanting to give FL what he wanted to give her, but FL just wanted to be happy w him. FL was happy and had happy moments, but ML was focused on the future. i think it shows how sometimes you have to live in the moment rather than worry of the future.
Bei Shan could have just gone to the police and said, "I wanted to get back at her for what they did to my girlfriend.…
the thing is he didnt kill her. chen nian did by pushing her off the stairs. he added dramatic charges like gRape and redrum to the story so that it would be solid, and never get to chen nian. he said it himself, he had nothing going for him but chen nian did. all he wanted was for chen nian to live the life she wanted.
the ending can be unrealistic but also not. since they both did time for it, and given the circumstances (bullying) its realistic. some places do allow criminals with a record to have good jobs if they have shown improvement. since chen nian was a model student and killed her bully, its probably that. lots of places are lenient to minors with records.
