Out of all the dramas, I really love Go Ahead. The drama held so much meaning and touched upon many social topics such as mental health and different types of familial relations and friendship. It's very heartwarming, and many say the beginning reminds them of Reply 1997. I especially loved the relationship between the 3 leads or "siblings". Be warned, some found it "incest" which I find absurd, but I guess it depends on the culture of that particular viewer. For e.g., I learned that most Indians found it weird for the leads to fall in love bc they started as "sibling" relationships and in their culture if they refer each other as, non-blooded, brothers/sisters then it's for life meaning there won't be romantic feelings evolved. But in Chinese and even in Korean culture it's different. "brother/oppa" can referred to as blood sibling, husband, friend or bf. I also liked the details and meanings/symbolisms from their actions or what they say as well as the use of background detail. For e.g., the pictures on the ml's childhood bedroom, the goldfishes (that has symbolism), even the shoes they wore. Although romance wasn't enough for me, but the kisses and hugs, sigh I really loved it. The way ml hugged fl was different from other hugs i've seen in other dramas. I won't delve too much in case you may want to watch and I spoil too much. Seven did wonderfully in Go Ahead, Steven as well. Song Weilong is still very much young and inexperienced but I can see the potential that has yet to be tapped into. There may be some awkward acting on his part, but there are some scenes that he did pretty well, I wouldn't pick any other actor to play LingXiao. Overall, I think the cast was picked wonderfully. Be warned, again, you may need tissues as this drama will bring you a roller coaster ride of emotions.

I like that ml gradually likes fl. It's a slow burn. I'd say skip the 2nd lead couple, they arr boring and not really important. It's a bit draggy, but overall not bad.

Affection perhaps in the last few eps of this drama. If you read the comments here most want to slap ml and some rather have fl stay single. You can try Under the Power, script/plot/cgi is mediocre at best but onscreen chemistry between the leads is on fire. It's really what carried the drama the whole way through and what got me watching the drama to the end. There's an english translated novel of Road to Home online, it's a quick read and I enjoyed it a lot, hence why I'm excited for the drama. it's definitely a bit of angst before sweet romance, but I feel like it makes the leads appreciate and treasure their love and find gratefulness. If you have watched My Sunshine, the mood reminds me a bit of it. I've watched the promotional video and it gives off a late 90s-early 00's vibe of kdrama like Winter Sonata.

I just reread the synopsis, after reading your comment, and I find the synopsis to be spot on about the drama. It basically got the whole gist of the drama. The synopsis doesn't really hint on anything about romance. It blatantly said fl wanted to be an investment director, which is really the main plot of this drama. Both ml and fl did dad personal growths and they did learn from each other. There's not much ups and downs in this drama, and definitely minimal on romance. Seven Tan doesn't take on romcoms anymore, she wants to change her image/career route, which I believe she's on the right track and doing pretty well. This may not be the drama for you, but defiinitely look out for Road to Home next year as it's a 100% romance based novel/drama by author MBFB, who is also the script writer for the drama. So I am pretty rest assured she will do her novel justice. Also, I find the ml in Road to Home more handsome than Kenny (no offence boy), so I am definitely much more excited for this particular drama.

not much romance. lots of banter between the leads, which I find the dialogue to be refreshing at times. Romance near the end of the drama.

I would love to know how realistic or the commonalities you see in this drama compared to your work life

I see that it's removed, that's good. Some were complaining that there's next to none of the romance when mdl tagged this drama as romance. I believe some viewers wrote to the admin to remove the romance tag. I guess it mislead some viewers and they were mad so they didn't like the drama. It's a self growth drama. Romance isn't the main priority in this.

Very well summarized!

Is that another novel based on mbfb? I dont think it's real. I think perhaps it's going to be a period drama

Is that the drama with Wulei? Isn't wulei filming a new drams right now?

Did you hear the rumored fantasy drama with Allen is now official with Song Zuer. I hate how they keep using 7's name to create hype

never heard that rumor with wulei

the fantasy drama rumored with Allen is officially with Song Zuer

I didnt hear about wulei. But yes i really want to know which is real

A new mellon that 7 will be in a new movie in aug called Fortress of Money

Same when it happened with wk and it actually became real!

No worries. Definitely no need to apologize! I dont trust yt videos, I've seen how fake and outrageous it can be. Honestly i dont think 7 would be in a support role in YZ's drama. 7 is working her way up and her status, in terms of scripts, is pretty good now. Nothing wrong with yz ofc. I'm just saying the only way she would be a support is maybe an S+ production like SSS for e.g. also 7 and yz are rumored to be nominated/competing for goddess award, so fan war will happen. I dont see them collabing anytime soon with the golden eagle shit. It always causes riots and trolling

Yes i have. It's a big big fl role. But there's anoyher rumor that 7 and lyf might collab. But they havent signed contract. And i think there's mellon bc fans want these two to collab so they use the two's hashtag a lot

His acting isnt too bad. Like he's partnered with A list actresses now. So should ve fine

My friend wants xukai after she saw them both on stage
