The results weren't that good in China and I am worried that because of that some actors would not want to film the next season. I hope it is a needless worry.
I am a bit scared that with the results it got in China it will be difficult to have the same cast for season 2... But let's not lose hope. 🙏 The wait will be long anyways so let's stay strong! 💪
My take is on the FL she couldn’t put her foot down ,move out of the house and have her own life without her…
It is as the FL said in about ep 11. Her mother is like a beast tamer, the beast is so shaped by both love and beatings when it is young that even when it matures and gains strength it still doesn't dare go against the beast tamer. That's actually what I really appreciated about the FL. That she is aware of her situation (real-life and psychological) and that she has a plan, that she talks about these feelings (the adult her) and not just creates unnecessary misunderstandings with the ML even if she cannot solve her situation by herself and is not brave enough to be with him in the beginning.
I really liked the case and how even the audience was in the dark for a while and even when we knew the characters had their suspicions and were unsure in a very believable way. One of the best cases in dramaland in my opinion. One that makes us think and most importantly makes us able to reach a conclusion based on the given clues, trace those back, and not just telling us how it ended up. However, there was really just that one big case as every small one was connected to the main one which I can't decide if I'm ok with or not. It makes both the bureaus seem not that busy, lol. But I understand that this was a story about that particular case so even if they had others it was not necessary to include those in this story as it could even seem fillery. What I give a big minus point for is the acting, or rather, the choise of actors. I couldn't feel any chemistry between the leads (and what was that little amnesia trope at the end???), the sister and her man were only acceptable thanks to the guy's acting as the sister only ever had poker face. I could actually feel more tension between the maid and the ML's buddy. However, not one episode was too boring nor heartbreaking so all in all a lower 8* from me.
I really don't get the hate. Sure it's not the best drama, however, it's not at all bad I really enjoyed it. An average 8* drama for me. The story is interesting, the characters have some depth. Even moments which I found really ridiculous at the beginning had a clear explanation later on (except the ending which was there just to make a HE). And the couple was really lovely and the character development was done just right. In my oppinion it is better than some dramas with annoying misunderstandings and breakups. Especially if you like one of the leads don't sleep on this one because of the bad comments, they're great here. The side characters are also interesting. Sure , maybe not the best way to write a fantasy story but as a romcom I really liked it. I really don't get the low rating, it should at least be around 8*.
It was really great and I just love the ML! ❤️ But somehow the series did not make me too invested even though I finished it in a binge watch and the story was great. Maybe because the caracters were too transparent and most of the plot was quite predictable. Even so it was one of the greatest dramas this year. Recommended. 8.5* from me.
I'm almost to the breakup scene and dreading five episodes of them being divorced. The breakup probably will bring…
Right? How much better would it be had he talked it out with her and together they decided to plot against the bad guy even maybe fake a divorce, that would be a nice plot twist (not a new one but I like those).
As someone who has watched a lot of chinese historical/wuxia/xianxia/other fantasy dramas I was shocked at first…
Ok, at least the ML has somehow longer hair which for me makes it more natural with their clothes and the "historical" era they live in. The first ep kept me engaged and apart from the beginning there weren't many disturbing moments later on (just to explain a bit more, it's because I'm used to the way the chinese do it.. not that the chinese effects are at such a high level. I would never dare claim that LOL I've seen too many bad sets and effects for that). Anyway, for now... to the second episode! 🤩
As someone who has watched a lot of chinese historical/wuxia/xianxia/other fantasy dramas I was shocked at first as I thought I would not get through the quality of the effects, the fights which seem too staged and the modern hairstyles... All of those are such a put off. However I will continue for now because of the comments recommending it for the comedy and story. Don't know how far I can go like this... Let's hope the good parta make me forget the disturbing elements otherwise I'd have to drop.
Really good until ep 35 where it went downhill. ML created a drama for no reason as continuing being happy with the FL would make no difference... Well that way he just wouldn't hurt her. I was almost furious that she forgave him that easily or more like they didn't show us enough of his repentance, the leads didn't talk it out but just got into kissing... I know a kiss can help a lot but I just wanted him to suffer a bit more for the completely unnecessary behaviour. Wanted to give it 8.5* but for the ending I scratched that half. 8* If I ever rewatch I'm gonna stop at the end of 34 and just imagine that the political situation solved itself and this is the happy end.
I have a theory about the no kisses , Wetv had to promise Iqiyi no kiss scene so they could use their cast ensemble…
And with the ML being a writer there is no doubt about the next series to watch... Moonlight rewatch begins now and I won't stop until I watch 100% of their kisses.
Overall, this was a pretty good drama to watch. The one thing that irritated the hell out of me was Ren Min’s…
I get what you mean. This was my first drama with her but I just cannot believe this is how she usually talks. It felt as if she was intentionally trying to sound more demure or sth 😅 But it came out to be so unnatural. Especially in comparison with other actresses who spoke with quite a pleasing tone.
