in chinese culture, adding "a" to the beginning of a name is a form of affectionate or informal address, this…
Yes a bit similar to Japanese "chan" or "kun", whereas "A" is not hierarchical or gender specific in chinese. "A" is used as a friendly prefix to a single prefered name, usually the last given name or sometimes the surname. E.g. Li Zan is A Zan, Song Ran is A Ran, Sa Xin is A Xin. Sometimes they may be called A Li, A Song and A Sa if we only know their surname which is common amongst neighbours to refer by the household surname.
Shipped Magistrate Han all the way with his great performance. ZZL is surprisingly lousy here since I originally came for him. Interesting from the start and always anticipated more eps. Unfortunately lacked or lagged in the last quarter that I delayed finishing the final 3 eps.
Never have i cried so much in recent years for a show. Enjoyed chasing new eps weekly but delayed watching the final 3 eps for a surprising neverending cryfest. Didn't expect the writers would make the seniors go to jail. Still glad for sweet happy ending Heartwarming family drama where senior actors get to shine their craft with screentime as much as juniors.
He peng (magistrate) is such an amazing actor! Never noticed him in previous dramas.
He Peng indeed is an amazing actor to be able to make me think he’s handsome despite being not handsome. Searched him up but no I haven’t watched anything else from him before. Will lookout for his future works.
Came for ZZL but progressed into team magistrate. First time watching He Ping who is neither cute nor handsome, but here he’s very handsome in character, well suited for FL.
The only excellent series amongst kdrama n cdrama drought. Lee Joon Hyuk here reminds of Bae Yong Joon craze from early 2000s. Been a long time since we had such passe romance with swoonworthy tender mature lead.
Only reason i'm watching is because its got some of my fav actors and on Netflix. Was looking forward to an original new genre, but sadly its not imaginative, interesting, entertaining or addictive, plus lacking in romcom.
First of Dylan’s series I’ve ever completed. Hv liked him a long time n watched most of his shows (since Meteor Garden) but never ever completed any. Unlike most cdramas, Dafeng is fast paced n best of all romance is kept minimal, whilst still excellently entertaining.
Episode 1: A Weak Start with Forced StakesThe show kicks off with a dramatic but unconvincing scene: a guy with…
Not c-romance fan hence title a put off. Started for thriller mystery genre. Ep 1 had some bomb detonation excitement. Then managed to skim 6eps for the leads but quickly losing steam without suspense. Where’s the serial killer plot? Hope it sets off in the next eps or it’s a bummer to drop this and wait for more Under The Skin.
Came for ML but fell for FL. at first sight. Just started ep 1 and so in love with Sun Qian’s scruffy look. Watched her in other dramas before but only in this show does she really captivate me, although not the average Chinese idol actress standard of pretty. Sun Qian here somehow reminds of Tang Wei, simply beautiful without fake-ness.
