Can anyone recommend me another Chinese drama similar to this? I am mostly Kdrama viewer but god after completing…
My Fated Boy, only in that one it's the ML that's younger with a big since-childhood-crush on the FL. It's not as good as HL, but it's very similar and also very good. I'd give HL a 9.5 and MFB a 9.
So far all the complaints i'm seeing was LX being arrogant and jerk, so lot of people don't like to see those…
I just thought it was boring. If the whole drama had been like the opening scenes, I would have liked it a lot more. They show you a badass ML, then yank him away and replace him with a boring nerdy ML. I don't care how sexy they try to make computers and coding, it's not a sexy subject. ML was sickly, I don't go for that either. 2ML the "rival" was a whiny pain in the ass psycho. And the FL rubbed me wrong, like she was too self-righteous. And the time-skip sucked. We're supposed to just pretend they dated for three years without seeing ANY of it??? That made no sense whatsoever and just broke up the drama into two separate parts for no real reason.
I’m more into kdramabut i see rating here is 9if anyone here is watching kdrama more than cdrama do u recommend…
It's the best of it's sub- genre. Whether you like it will depend on if you can handle this subgenre (simple, fluffy, chinese romance), but for what it is, it is hands down the best, there is no question.
Still can’t find another drama with a similar ML and amazing chemistry (and HE) between the leads despite all…
I hope screenwriters and producers take notes on this.... this drama put its finger DIRECTLY on what it is the Dark ML-loving audience wants to see. We need more stuff like this.
Xue Shu has such an annoying smile!!! ugghhhh this actress did her job well, can't stand this character 😖
It's her nose. She has a weird hook-nose. And an odd smile too, double whammy. But I have to say, on the third rewatch (not the second lol).... I started to feel sorry for her.
I looked at your watchlist... for k-drama, I would recc Come and Hug Me, The Smile Has Left Your Eyes, Crazy Love,…
yeah i thought Alchemy of Souls was pretty forgettable. This leads to another problem with k-dramas.... the hype lots of times isn't justified. With C-dramas that doesn't happen as much. It still happens sometimes but nowhere near to the level it does with k-dramas. So you could "hear it was really good" and then it turns out it's not. Like this one. And it's hard to figure out which ones are actually good unless you slog through a bunch of crap first, because no matter what you look at watching, there's a gaggle of teens out there raving about how it was just so good even if it's awful.
Costume dramas ----> yeah k-dramas leave really slim pickins in that department. Joseon era clothes are just not as cool as historical chinese and wuxia clothes. I wish k-dramas would break out of their box more and try new things, but they're just not big risk-takers like chinese.
I used to like k-dramas better, but now I like c-dramas better, and it's generally because they create more realistic characters that have more intricate and true-to-life inner psychological makeup. K-drama characters more often are doing stupid things to further the plot, that no normal RL person would do, and they're not as believable. Just in general. Not always of course.
No disrespect to anyone who loves this drama but unfortunately this was not my cup of tea. I felt so frustrated…
I looked at your watchlist... for k-drama, I would recc Come and Hug Me, The Smile Has Left Your Eyes, Crazy Love, It's Okay Not to Be Okay, My Roommate is a Gumiho, Oh My Venus, Devilish Joy, and Love To Hate You.
It's hard to go from C-dramas to K-dramas, especially lately because c-romances have really stepped up their game in the past few years, whereas K-romances have gotten worse. But there ARE good k-dramas out there, and My Demon is NOT one of them, it's one of the worst I've seen. So perhaps resist the urge to judge the entire genre by one extremely bad drama. Maybe try again later with something that represents the best of it's genre.
Even then though, the best k-dramas are just not quiiiite as good as the best c-dramas. There is nothing like TTEOTM or SoKP or TLB in the K-drama world. But they are still pretty good if you find a good one.
I have the same problem with j-dramas, I've seen many now, and even the best J-drama I can find is nowhere near as good as a k-drama or c-drama, just imo. Maybe I just haven't seen the right j-dramas.... but I'm not a fan of the way a lot of j-dramas are concluded with an open, vague, "artsy" ending or some kind of unhappiness or tragedy. Some are really not bad at all, but i have yet to find one that I think is outstanding.
Hmmm. Yeah idk.... I made it to ep 20something and I'm not feelin it between those two chemistry-wise. He is so superfine, but the two of them, I just don't find myself really shipping them a whole lot.
Seems like a painfest. Lots of crying and frustration and crazy bitchness etc etc.
I never thought I would drop a show for a haircut but I'm really close...
Because of viewers like me who think it's completely adorable.
And on a practical level. When guys chronically can't afford - or FEEL they can't afford - a haircut, they just buy some clippers and zoom-zoom, instant haircut. And this character grew up poor. Even after he's in college, he still is scrimping his money, you can tell. So it's a style that's realistic to the character he's playing. I know some serious hotties who have rocked that haircut too. And the best part about it - to me - is how SOFT it is. For real.
I like it on many men as a style because it's honest. There's no stupid head-flipping that comes with having bangs or a longer style or dreds. They can't hide behind their hair, and cover part of their face when they're feeling self conscious. They can't hide the flaws on their face or their head or their ears. So in that sense I find it very alpha. That this guy doesn't have any affectations or pretenses, and doesn't hide from anybody and doesn't give a crap what you think of it.
I've seen An Yu in other stuff with other hairstyles, and it looks good in everything else I've seen him in too. So I'm not saying this is like my favorite hairstyle, I like all different kinds of hair. But just sayin.... this cut is also cute. At least to me.
From ep6 to the end, it's really bad, even the worst ever.Any hate for this drama is justified, even recommended.
> good luck with stalking me so you can post the link to your screenshot😂😂
> I’m still waiting for your actions
your reading comprehension is sorely lacking. What you're doing is called "strawmanning", you can look it up. Youre a bully, and you're still at it. Get called out and you start projecting. lying, strawmanning, playing the victim, and spouting off garbage ad hominems, just like any other bully. You really don't like being called out and held accountable for your intimidation tactics.
