This was such an AMAZING AND EMPOWERING SHOW, I WISH MNET WOULD DO MORE OF THESE SHOWS?! loved the emphasis on teamwork, i think it's great that now mnet is moving away from pitting girls against each other ala unpretty rapstar and now focusing more on these kinds of uplifting GIRL POWER shows. each member showed amazing growth, esp Sleeq and Yeeun. Sleeq was such a powerhouse - despite others judging her in the early eps, she showed how flexible and adaptable she was as an artist.
The performances were all so strong and memorable, especially WITCH. I hope we can see more performances from these girlies at upcoming year end music shows. It's so beautiful to see how the girls got closer and at the same time, show their artistic growth. This is what shows should be about!! Clap clap for MNET
I'm on ep 10 and thinking of dropping? Maybe I should have watched this before nothing but thirty but finding it hard to care about the girls' arcs and kind of find that the obstacles and challenges they are facing are so trivial lol. I guess this is what it's like to be in our mid 20s but now that I'm entering my late 20s, I find the storyline and female characters more relatable in nothing but thirty.. On the plus side though, the guys in this drama are nicer and more likeable but the girls a bit more flawed and sometimes immature (even though understandable considering their age).
This Lin You You is so greedy and is definitely a psycho. She wanted to enter Gu Jia’s apartment by all means.…
That Lin You You reminded me of fatal attraction - I think psychologically she is unstable and something must have happen to her where she felt like she could just waltz into Gu Jia's life like that. I'm glad in the end she left the city but jfc good on Gu Jia for slapping the shiz outta her hoe ass
Ive watched first 10-13 eps for real but it never changed a bit it was just so depressing and gloomy. I waited…
I mean yes everyone is entitled to their opinion but I think that you should have stayed and watched the entire thing - the ladies experience a lot of growth with their identity and also with their relationships. The reason why it may be 'depressing' is because that's the reality of life - marriage is hard and you're gonna be faced with obstacles thrown your way. But I agree with @mazmariam that if you prefer more fluffy love stories, maybe stick with rom coms rather than mature dramas about life and marriage
The one thing XHS could have done for Gu Jia was sign thendivorce aggreement before telling her about the factory…
I agree! XHS was so selfish for not signing the divorce in time but I'm glad in the end that that he decided to mention divorce as he rots in Jail. As for Man Ni, she's such a confident and courageous woman!!! Proud of her and also proud that rather than living a comfortable life back home, she is eager to see more of the world and went to study in Europe. BTW i dont kno why chinese netizens hated her character so much, i loved her (they kept calling her Wang Money)
Just finished this amazingly well written and empowering drama and I feel so EMPTY. What do I watch next? I have watched them grow and battle so many obstacles and it felt so real - as if I was watching my own friends/sisters living their lives in Shanghai. Now that it's finished idk what to do with myself cricri
kind of wondering if i should continue, i'm on ep 6 and it is just SO melodramatic and over the top.. i know it's supposed to be a melo drama but you really have to suspend your disbelief bc some scenes are so unrealistic??? and also the characters are so tiring
An impeccably shot and extravagantly made movie that had me thinking about even days after I finished... this is an example as to why Korean Cinema is so strong these days. The love story here is sublime, cinematography is stunning, and the acting is amazing. It's not only a quality film but one that is a win for LGBTQ viewers
this movie was so moving, it was very interesting to see how the changes in china had an impact on the main family. i felt so bad for gong li though, she had to suffer so many tragedies :(
omg months after this drama ended, i still CAN'T find a drama quite like this. like, this set new levels of drama expectations and i'm crying cuz i want to find a show AS GOOD as this but i can't! can anyone help me out omg
I just finished this amazing drama and I am at a loss of words; it was SUCH a crazy emotional ride and now I have major withdrawal symptoms - what do I even do with myself now? I can't even call it a drama - it was an EXPERIENCE. The depth of the characters and the acting made everything feel so real. The writing was impeccable and the directing was sublime. Out of all the dramas I've seen, this easily comes out on top! I honestly feel HONORED to have been able to view such a drama and I hope that tvN continues to deliver dramas of this quality. Now I'm going to run off to a corner and cry because the drama is over :(
I loved this drama so much! Good acting from the old AND new casts, natural chemistry between the 6 besties, and a nostalgic story of friendship, love, and dreams that everyone can relate to. Honestly, I have not enjoyed a TVB show as much as I have with this one in ages. As a girl, this show is easy for us to relate to. Reminded me of good old days with my friends in school too lol. Anyway, watch it now! It'll make you laugh, smile, cry, etc
Absolute masterpiece; story is fast paced and unpredictable, full of psychological twists and turns, intelligent script, 3D characters that undergo plenty of change. acting is impeccable, there is a reason why these actors/actresses became so famous overnight. directing: beautiful, they actually shot in the forbidden palace, everything looks real, gorgeous sets and costumes.
if tvb can make shows as complete and timeless as war and beauty; they'd be set for life. it's shows like this that makes me realize that yes, despite tvb's recent flaws, they are able to produce such a high quality production.
this drama was just too fucking amazing i can't even describe it. not only thought provoking and well executed - direction, acting, script was on point - but it was also entertaining and so addictive ;~; i could go on but its one of the best dramas i've seen
The performances were all so strong and memorable, especially WITCH. I hope we can see more performances from these girlies at upcoming year end music shows. It's so beautiful to see how the girls got closer and at the same time, show their artistic growth. This is what shows should be about!! Clap clap for MNET
