It perhaps means more to you than me. I’m not Korean and I watch these dramas for pure entertainment. Unless it specifically says it is a historical drama or a fictional drama based on real events I don’t take them to be completely factual and totally accurate. Even nonfiction can get things wrong sometimes.

“Fiction does not have to be strictly accurate. Because fiction is a product of the imagination. Authors have the freedom to invent characters, settings and events. “ The drama started each episode saying it was a work of fiction. They apologized to quiet the ruckus. As for IU apologizing or crying, take it up with her fan base who is distorting all the facts. Finally, you need to calm down. It is a kdrama, not real life.

Fiction means fiction. It is not fiction based on factual events. It just seems to be a lot about nothing. The performances were enjoyable so I cannot understand why there is all this controversy and the actor was confronted to the point where she apologized and cried. Lighten up everyone.

On episode 18 and the hardest part for me is that the fl just graduated college and all of a sudden she’s taking an active role in these cases and seems to be an expert all of a sudden.

When reading the summary it sounds exactly like the movie Her.

I watched it until the end since there was not much to choose from lately and their relationship did change and she did mature somewhat. I found her friend also very annoying and very clingy to his love interest, the second lead female. I ended up rating it an 8 because I felt the ml’s character development was decent. The one thing I really dislike about Chinese dramas though is that many are dubbed and have voice actors, sometimes for the leads. This one did and I wonder how they really can be considered great actors if they have others speak for them, kiss for them. So it was okay but not worth struggling over it.

This cdrama was a true gem.

There are so many annoying characters in this cdrama that I’m limping through it trying to get to the end. Yang Yue is a wimp and he doesn’t know when to give up. Xie Xiao is so immature and self absorbed and makes one mistake after another. Shanggian Xi doesn’t seem to get the fact that Xie Xiao will never love her and pines for him. And Yuan Jin Xia keeps saying Sir Sir Sir a thousand times. The only character that is truly interesting is Lu Yi. He’s smart and steady in nature. I keep debating whether I should stay with it since I have already invested so much of my time watching it already or just drop it and move on.

Thank you!!!

I know that I am only on episode 4 but I keep coming back to the reviews here and noticing how so many really liked it and loved the acting. I am enjoying it except for the female lead who is really annoying to me. She is really obnoxious and immature and I hope that there is a lot of character development for her throughout this cdrama. She acts overly cute and really does not know her place in the scheme of things so far.

Thank you. I need to remind myself to not even begin any more cdramas exclusively thru iQIYI. I already pay for Netflix, Amazon prime and Viki. And many on Amazon prime are only free with a trial through another application.

I have tried several times to try to find the entire series on YouTube with engsub without any luck. Many are just bits and pieces. Anyone know where I might be able to watch it in its entirety?

Really very good and kept my interest throughout the 49 episodes but I found the ending just a teeny bit weak.

On episode 28 and I can’t believe how annoyed I am by a total work of fiction lol. The marquis trusted her when she needed him the most and yet she can’t seem to do the same for him. She actually took Scissors to her own throat to protect the sml and causes her husband to get badly injured. Now she’s crying like a baby and says she has mistreated him. No kidding!

I agree that this cdrama is far better than an 8.3. I’m on episode 17 and I’m really enjoying it immensely. When I started I was wondering if it was worth continuing and I was a little surprised by the actors they chose for the ml and fl. Throughout though I felt both actors were perfect for their roles. He is what you can refer to as a man’s man. He is masculine. Not all mls have to have perfect pretty faces. Attractiveness is not just physical. The fl is suppose to be very young but independent and smart. Men throughout history have been much older than their very young wives. I’m glad I did not listen to those who did not like this drama for whatever their reasons. I’ve learned to make my own decisions and give things a chance.

She thought of herself before her son. Not much of a mother. I agree that he forgave her too quickly and she only came around when he finally confronted her and in the end she found out the truth. Even if his father was guilty of everything he was accused of and even if he did kill himself I find her actions unforgiveable.

Loved it overall but have to say the last episode was fluff.

ML’s mom is a piece of work. She’s awful in my book. On episode 19 and I just can’t understand a mother like her no matter how much I try. There is zero justification in her behavior even with her soft voice and soft coaxing to make them one big happy family. Lol.

I know this is a fictional drama but come on. He has been accused of murder and now they know someone else was in his apartment around the time of his friend’s and bandmate’s murder. What a genius idea that the police need to be told who the earring belonged to! Wouldn’t you call the police immediately instead of waiting until the morning? It’s childish, immature writing.

Jane, so what? That is what this platform is for. That is why there is a rating.
