I just finished episode 18 and I'm a bit confused. during the fight why did loud, shrimp, cao da and accountant…
When the group ran out of the gate, there were flames and more fighting behind them. I thought that place was toast. There was no way it was safe inside anymore. They need to escape. So when DW finally woke up, I was like, "get up, girl. run! get out of there!"
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better crier than ZLS. When she sobbed on the bed it hit me so hard. It wasn’t…
lol 😆 finished watching epi 20's aching confrontation between DW and YZJ around midnight too, kept crying and then saw the lollipop vid, that had me cackling. BF was looking at me weird, so he had to sleep on the couch last night. 😂

Yes! I feel the same way. Zhao Lu Si really nails grief in such a raw and real way. Some viewers might expect those big, dramatic outbursts—screaming crying, flailing—but for me, it's the quiet moments that hit hardest. Like DW sobbing on the bed as her grief comes crashing down on her. Those soft, painful sobs that start in the back of the throat, whimpering and gritting the teeth, trembling lips, almost like she's holding it in but can’t quite stop. The way her shoulders curl in, like she’s trying to protect herself or hold pieces of her heart together before it completely falls apart. It’s those little, almost imperceptible movements that make it feel so true to life. It’s grief not as an explosion, but as something quietly, painfully enduring.
I have to say, I’m still emotionally wrecked from DW and YZJ's grief in episodes 18-20. Just thinking about their heartbreaking scenes makes my eyes well up all over again. DW's devastation at the time of Shrimp's death was gut-wrenching. Then the stillness and those silent tears really captured her shock and trauma. Then, when her grief finally hit full force, and she broke down, I was right there with her, sobbing. Zhao Lu Si’s acting just keeps impressing me.
Then the double whammy. YZJ's deep sadness as he loses hope for a future, the tiny defeated smile. Then the silent tear, the tense jaw, and that painful swallow as he resigned himself to the idea that she might hate him. Watching him watch DW and hear her crying in the rain—I was yelling, "run back to her you *****!". Liu Yu Ning’s performance was so relatable.
I think that grief, especially when tangled with complex emotions like shock, guilt, regret, or resignation, can be difficult to portray because it’s often a deeply internalized and subdued experience. On screen, this subtlety can be lost in the subjectivity of the viewers' point of view. Since grief often manifests as silence, stillness, or small gestures, it requires a delicate and nuanced performance to be impactful through a screen.
I believe, ZL and LYN really nailed their scenes. My tear-stained, swollen eyes definitely agree.
Let's just argue because we like to, ha!Intentions are always good and fine, but intentions can hurt more than…
Agreed, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions". YZJ's unwavering determination to shield DW, though rooted in noble intentions, clouded his judgment. His desire to protect DW, along with the thought of his imminent death, blinds him to the bigger picture, and in his struggle to do what he believes is right, he ends up creating more emotional harm than good. DW’s own stubborn, fierce courage, full of grit and self-reliance, clashes with YZJ’s protective instincts, making his actions seem not just misguided, but almost pointless.

LYN sarcastic reply: " yes , I am married to her with three children. One of them is about to reach her height" 🤣💀
