it seems like you're more looking for the mystery/thriller vibe? That starts around ep 16-17. If you don't like the slide-of-life comedy/romance, then maybe FF is a good idea?

Groveling arc is ep 27-31, with them getting together at ep 31

I'd say end of ep5 is the first inkling of feelings. Ep 7-8 is when ML2 shows up, and there is a bit more tension. Ep 11-16 is where affection deepens to love, Ep 17 is the tonal shift to revenge mystery as FL regains memories. Ep 23 is the big breakup moment. Ep 27-32 is my favorite groveling arc, as ML tries to win back the FL. It's super hilarious and oh so sweet. I'd say pick you fav and start there and see if this show is your cup of tea. It's mostly light-hearted and fun throughout the show, and the plot is predictable enough that skipping around probably won't spoil things too much.

this drama is definitely a slow burn. If the pace is too slow for you in the starting episodes, you can always play on 2x speed.

Yup, the drama will deviate quite significantly from this point on. I personally think it's much better than the novel. I'd recommend just taking the drama as it si.

I actually really hated the pregnancy plot line in the novel and am glad that they got rid of it in the drama.

Cui Xing Zhou is a lot better in the drama.

The drama does deviate, but I think it's in a good way.

I'd say so. It's just starting to enter the most intense part of the storyline.

Yes, there will definitely be a revenge chapter. The ML kinda deserved it. haha.

LMT regains her memories in ep 17 according to the official broadcast schedule.

I think it's natural for the audience to hate on the ML at the current stage of the plot, as he really is in the wrong here. I will say that the drama should do justice to make our ML suffer for his sins.

It's actually the actor's own voice...

it's definitely a slow burn drama. Some folks don't really like the comedy, which is understandable. We'll probably see a tone shift soon, as the conflicts are starting to come forth.

I love their scenes together.

this will come. I promise =)

more like 14-15

In the drama, it'll be around the 2nd quarter.

it seems to get better in later episodes. It might be that they're moving slowly more due to that stranger awkwardness b/t them

don't worry. it's he for sure. the boy needs to pay eventually for his lies ;), but there is a good ending
