lol reading some of the comments here again and having a chuckle. yes that's right - no "quite" - i AM biased to lakorns. :) what are you going to do about it? stop me from having opinions and acquiring taste? and most of all, last i checked, this is my PERSONAL list and i'm not claiming to be the voice of authority?? i know leaving comments on the internet is free but come on.
otherwise, thank you everyone else who did not leave mean comments and are nice. you're all very welcome. love you all <3
watched this for zhu yi long and stayed for the sweet, delicious melodrama. what great popcorn. it has been some time since I watched this and now I'm unashamed to say I enjoyed it a lot.
Hi i am that commenter before who's been restraining herself to watch this while airing. AND NOW I ALREADY FINISHED…
agree, the last few episodes were off in tone - not the most desirable - but i don't think it's fatal especially when the story had its own fulfilling twist eventually. the leads acting and chemistry are really what made the drama - if that's what you're in for, you won't be disappointed ever
hi everyone, I've started subbing some Lin Yushen interviews which he did during Dating in the Kitchen promo period since I learnt from some people that they didn't seem to be subbed yet. do check out if you're curious :) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZsQ1WuX5NOV7H0zWaNeweC60CPL69ryF
(not sure yet if I'll be subbing everything, especially not if they're already subbed - if anyone knows if any of them have already been subbed, feel free to let me know!)
It's almost guaranteed that Pupu and Yan Liang both died - pupu died because ZDS did not bring her to the hospital…
Thanks for the real long comment haha. I've read some of these interpretations from Chinese commentaries/reviews too but I haven't really came across speculations on how Yan Liang died - cool, I learnt new things about the show again. Yeah absolutely, if anyone examines the little loopholes in the "fictionalised" story that we SEE, we'll find that a lot of things don't match up and we will discover the truth beneath. But if you overlook all those, it's also entirely possible to just get away believing in the "fairytale" and think everyone's alive and well, choosing to believe in what you want to. That's something I really really appreciated about the drama - leaving room for interpretation and imagination and there were so many carefully designed details too.
I still question if the kids really did survive. I keep getting the surreal feeling as if the ending is what they…
Oh no, you're right. That's the interpretation I read, and according to the novel as well. It was heavily implied that Pupu and Yan Liang died in the end, with all the imaginary scenes - Yan Liang in the hall full of students but only Chaoyang was aware of his presence, Yan Liang blowing the whistle at the group of dancing elderly but only Lao Chen noticed him. Also, we never saw Pupu again despite being told by ZDS she survived and is in the hospital.
When I was watching the ending, those happy scenes did feel a little off but I still took it that they were alive and everything ended well - I would prefer to think so. I like that the show is opening the audience to different interpretations - we could totally go on believing that what we saw was the truth, but if we cared to examine closer, we'll realise everything might be a lie - especially when you know this might be Chaoyang's fictional recount of what happened and he might be concealing his evil nature/doings. It's really cool!
