OMYGAWD!!!! I DROPPED that drama which got me so excited (the fantastic Ep 1) BECAUSE of that final FL actress. Eeeeeesh!!!
HOW I"D HAVE LOVED for the SCARFACE actress to continue!!! WITH the scarface!!!
No I cant stomach her .. But now that I know LXY is in it .. Hmmmm... I am wondering if should hold my nose and give one more try.
BTW I battled with LBFAD for more than a year .. sniffing .. dropping .. one spoonful and spitting it out ALL because of the FL in it who makes me do U-turns however great a movie is .. (am I stepping on your toes? Bhauwisa!) I SO SO SO wanted to watch Dylan Wang do his THANG in it .. And then I FINALLY held my nose and dived in. She never grew on my .. but I learnt to tolerate .. and there was relief in the scenes she is possessed by Dylan character .. there I can handle her a little better ..
“Choice A or Choice B, live life without regrets” is the message of the drama that the writers executed perfectly…
@justjacky
Agree on all the Pros .. About the 2nd lifeline .. yeah some find it difficult to dissociate the FL arc that goes to Shanghai with the FL arc that stays in Leshan ..
THEY are two different stories altogether .. PLUS .. how is it unreal to fall in love a second time when the first one doesn't work out?
I think this issue troubled a LOT of Viewers in DOUBLE also .. a Married Woman in deep love with her husband (shown intimate scenes and kisses also in that) falls for and kisses the ML (ROFL that too ZXY tee hee .. many bust a vessel for sure)
Yeah we can't judge it........in ep 8 she kissed deeply a guy.....then ep 11 she kissed another guy and in relationship…
@Popcxqueen you should scroll up and see one of the emo-riddled high 'triggered' comment ... prolly was traumatized and took 'sick-leave' from DramaWorld to recover Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Yeah we can't judge it........in ep 8 she kissed deeply a guy.....then ep 11 she kissed another guy and in relationship…
:-D
It was a 10/10 for me too. We are probably the only two?? LOL Although the 'silent likes' to your comment shows there are MANY more out there who didnt want to wade into this muddy pool

He had a similar life experience I believe. His mom needed Kidney Replacement surgery .. and he was relieved that by then he made enough money for that. Otherwise his relationship to money is JUST as in this Drama's role
Don't judge a book by it's cover or in this case don’t just the drama by its low rating. This drama is not everyone’s…
How LOVELY to encounter you here saying what you said ;-D
I was not wrong in finding a strong connect when I 'friended' you on MDL
It's like being in a city full of upset aggrieved strangers and suddenly seeing a face that's smiling and you realize OMG it's someone you know from your part of the world
Two of my favourite quotes from the drama:“We should cherish the happiness we have, even if it’s a little…
@ justjacky Adding another one : "LIFE IS JUST LIKE THE WATER WE DRINK. ONLY WE KNOW THE TEMPERATURE inside out"
~ this line will now replace the hackneyed "only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches" UGH this falls so tattered and poor next to the poetic water - life comparison.
Yes, that's how the drama ended. Happy ending in both timelines. With different loves.
Just finished .. havent mAAADly binged a drama this way in AGES!!! 10/10 for me . I hope I get down to write at length at all the stuff that led me to 10/10
ok but I hate the Leshan ML's mom. They literally play off a scene where she replaces the FL's prenatal meds with…
LOL .. I think you will find a sample of such Mothers in ALL races - societies - classes - regions of the world .. Jewish moms - Italian moms - Asian moms dominate as the most popular stereotype ..
So prolly not fair to direct this as a query to ONLY Chinese Moms LOL
Highly EDUCATED TRUST FUND families have matriarchs and mother in Upper Manhattan - Boston (who interfere in their clans and families .. maybe not with pills like this .. but in far more sophisticated ways :-D
And there are WISE mothers to be found in neglected corners of the world doing the best they can for their children.
There is a poignant moment when this Leshan Mother found this LOST piece of Singapore Lion token from a trip that she took once .. SHE DIDNT EVEN remember she had been .. she sits down in a rocking chair .. the only time we see her mind drift off .. that she can lay down her burden of worries and anxieties .. and recalls a different era in her life .. It made me curious to know who was her 'other' self that made a different decision at a fork in the road that led to an arc in another lifeline different from this one.
Only a few episodes in, but so far I'm enjoying the drama pretty well. I really like the concept, and I think…
LOL
I plunged into the drama knowing very little .. the V.O. was so CLEAR .. the two timelines are very clear .. the two versions of FL begin to look so unique, very quickly, as their parallel selves trace their separate arcs moulding their characters even as their basic core personality stays of the same essence .. HATS OFF to the SCRIPTWRITER.
Most Drama watchers aren't familiar with a wide range of cinema-movies styles that are out their in the wider world of screen ent .. so a little experimental touch can completely throw off the traditional expectations .. leaving many lost and irked.
You know what to expect when you walk into a MacDonalds .. you don't get your standard fare or at least some recognisable variation you can feel irritated and cheated .. LOL
Bad analogy .. but couldnt quickly think of a better one
I finished the drama. It's quite good! A typical slice-of-life plot-wise, but the parallel storylines make it…
PHEW!!!
The praises for this TOP GEM of a drama is so sparse .. the view on it so bleak .. Good to see this
I binge-watched it 20 eps straight .. last night (and day).
WAS MIND-BLOWING .. complex and riveting .. beautifully woven tale between the TWO possible paths taken, from ONE point of decision in FL's life that led to two different arcs for the FL in the future.
One needs to see it in a multiverse way - each decision moment splits off into parallel universes where a different arc plays out and they are actually therefore different people at that point of departure.
Lifeline 1 FL and Lifeline 2 FL are TWO different people .. in two different space-times at the point of decision (get off the bus - stay on the bus versions play out their independent arcs that NEVER MEET AGAIN or REWIND).
I DROPPED that drama which got me so excited (the fantastic Ep 1) BECAUSE of that final FL actress.

AWWWWW!!!
HOW WE HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH LXY!!!
I know what you mean.
That would be a 3rd timeline heee heee
@Justjacky
Touché
HATS OFF!!!
Thank God as I scroll down I am not only finding folks who 'got' the drama BUT also them getting "silent LOVE" in clicks from SO MANY

So with @DD_rules or with @justjacky @ThomasLin
True!
240 Volts of AC current rippled through the bodies of many viewers because "the FL KISSED 3 MLs" (even drama world fills with 'fake-news' fluff)
ROFL!!!!
who I am tripping on since seeing him in KMLM
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
you are a riot here
@justkacky .. this is going to be one HILARIOUS thread
Ha haha ha ha ..
Love your response ..
It was a 10/10 for me too.
