Before I started, I was worried that there are 59 episodes in this series. Too long, I said. Now we're already half way through and I'm still intrigued by the storyline, and my heart goes all out for Si Feng.
This drama had such a great start, but i hope it does not go into the direction of a full blown love triangle.…
"..... so they are indeed ¨real¨ brother and sister, eventhough they are not blood-related." - Then you don't truly understand Chinese families. It is indeed quite desirable to marry someone you know all your life. They believe in continuation, in sharing everything from young, to old, to death. Quite a departure from western and other thinking. Therefore, it's not unthinkable to turn brother/sister into lovers :)
The difference between Ling Xiao and Zi Qiu is, Ling Xiao doesn't get a girl friend because he only wants Jianjian; Zi Qiu doesn't get a girl friend because he doesn't really know what a girl friend is. Both the fathers know this.
When you can accept the change from 'bro' become something else, then it'll be an okay episode :)It's a fun eps,…
Right! The confessions from both and the reactions from Jianjian are simply so hilarious and adorable. As it is, I can't see any heartache coming forward when one has to be rejected. Yes, the writers have done it brilliantly.
I find him really promising too. I have tried all those dramas and initially thought it would be promising..In…
Yeah, you're right - they've turned him into a wimp. What we're watching now is all flash back. In episode 1, it does seem he's turned into a teacher or sort. I really like how he looks as a general. Let's hope this wimp doesn't disappear into oblivion again.
Yes, an absolutely adorable episode. Hope viewers don't condemn it.
Many viewers don't want to see platonic love turns romantic. They fear it may ruin the relationship hence the story. Many viewers also fear a love triangle which I'm pretty confident there won't be.
I agree with Shreya...they aren't siblings.lijinjian just call her " big brother" but they are not have the same…
In the Chinese culture, it's not a taboo for marrying your 'brother' or 'sister' as long as they don't have the blood relationship. In fact, even with blood relationship, many cousins did marry each other because Chinese like to keep their children by their sides, what's better than to marry them off to someone within the family?
couldn't watch Episode 30, because again Si Feng was injured in order to protect Xuan Ji
Yikes! It's obvious that Hao Chen is in love with Xuan Ji but his love is toxic and one feels suffocated under such possessiveness. My heart always aches for Si Feng, all the pain he is enduring so willingly.
Honestly, by watching all those clips I am pretty sure that this will not turn into a love triangle. ZQ and LX's…
You have put it so beautifully.
Yes, all these characters are so lovable and deserve happiness in the end. Ming Yue plays an important role in making Ling Xiao come forward sooner as he doesn't want her to misunderstand his feelings; in fact once he clarifies his feelings, he wants the whole world to know. That's the sweetest things and I love how the writers do it because many other dramas would have this dragged on and causing unnecessary angst to the viewers.
I love Ming Yue because she's a very sweet and compassionate character. She always just wants to be herself. She doesn't look for materialistic success and prestige. That's how beautiful she is.
Zi Qiu is a very mature boy in terms of being a dutiful son, but very immature romantically. The way he treats Ming Yue in high school is expected because, at that time, apart from basketball, he has never thought of anything else, let alone a girl who fancies him. And I feel Ming Yue understands this so she moves on. At 27, he still has never chased any girls. He will eventually grow up and this is the gist of the story.
