Do short Cdramas get different censoring boards? because i am pretty sure I saw something during those kisses…
Beyond major full-length c-drama vs short web drama, there is another *huge* difference between short cdrama kissing and Affinity. I mean, some are a tad into this direction but.. just a tad y'know.
Watch this when you want a stupid vertical, but on a bigger screen, with a substantial amount of 🔥 or spice or 'kilig' or whatever you want to call it. I'll just dub this a horizontal.
Don't watch this to critique character motivations, evaluate plot point plausibility, or form opinions on whether the FL ever consents to being randomly grabbed & forcefully kissed.
The premise is kind of a copy of Mysterious Love, but the plot isn't as bad and disjointed.
The OST is randomly copied together (as in, it's blatant plagiarism), but most of the comments here still find it substantially adds to the enjoyment.
Some of the production is incredibly sloppy (audio, continuity, other things), but that doesn't mean you shouldn't watch it in 4K for scientifically analyzing you-know-what.
The only actor who is good from start to finish is Jesse Ren. Fang Jin is quite bad at the very start, then gets to an okay level with some outages here and there. However, she's not here to convince you of her emotional range or expression control, but to somehow be put into peril, before being rescued (and ravished) by Jesse Ren.
(There's a second couple, who are totally unnecessary yet mildly cute, but unlike the leads they didn't bring their intimacy A-game, perhaps related to their age difference. Might view them as in the wrong show. Beyond that there are various gangsters and office workers and office workers that are gangsters too, but none of these stand out much. I'll only keep a look out for future roles of Liu YuYang, ML's sidekick.)
ist an open ending in someway, i would recommend it though, some scenes repeat themselves but i didnt mind, watched…
Only open in one aspect; two of the six specials give you a lot more after-content (the others are BTS/commentary/interview/etc, but still interesting too).
Ep1 and FL is already annoying. Thanks for your mini review, saved my time. The ML won't save a stupid FL for…
I always have a mild problem with her acting (here, and before in Sinful Marriage and Queen Of Darkness), but I still very much recommend this show. The first episode had some particular production quality issues that weren't really there later on, or were less impactful.
So basically the real Xixi (An Yue) had a 50% chance of developing cancer so the dad tried to make replicas? Somehow…
(Prolly don't care anymore but..)
- Yes, essentially the plot is that we made some clones just to have a backup if the real kid developers cancer, but then the An lady ran away with the real kid while pretending the fake one died and labelling the actual fake one the real one. So it was An, FL's "mother", and ML's father only knew when FL 'was already 8 years old' (or so he claimed towards the villain).
- When ML sneaks into the study, FL covers for him by keeping the father on the live stream, which lets ML and his remote hacker gain admin access to the evil lair's computer system.

Oh, and watch the specials!

Yes, people are dying here, but first, and more importantly, a word from our sponsor...
