I think it's on my plan to watch list... I remember skimming it to see if I might want to try it. I'm not usually in the mood for republican era type stuff but idk. Right now I'm halfway through "New Life Begins" and so far it is really not bad. Not the greatest thing I've ever seen, but very very funny for a c-drama and sort of like "the good kind" of fluff. There's even a cute little dog in it awwwwww!

:P

Yeah our lists do line up on a lot of stuff. Anyone who didn't give Vincenzo and Weightlifting Fairy a 10 already immediately has my attention, ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Because you asked a public forum whether this will continue to trigger you as you watch.

Everybody should watch Secret at least once.

yasssss..... new stuff to watch..... tysm

When that chick was getting ready to whoop FL's ass, I actually said out loud to the screen "Woooooo.... daddy's gonna be PISSED!"

Damn, he was such a great ML, so perfect.

Rainie's hair was on point and Mike was ROCKING those bobby pins!

I just started a rewatch of it, and I totally forgot how rockin the OST is. If you watch it and like the theme song, it's Chou Nan Ren by Yida Huang.

1. Xie Wei
2. Tantai Jin
3. Hao Du (2ML from The Long Ballad)
4. Chae Do Hin (Come and Hug Me)
5. Gong Ma Sung (Devilish Joy)

I also really loved the ML's from The Smile Has Left Your Eyes and What Happened In Bali.... but both of them ended BADLY for their FL's, so they don't have the protective quality I would look for in the ultimate ML.

As far as is it popular because it's a LuSi drama, no, definitely not. I'm not a LuSi fan... to me she's hit-or-miss... so if a drama has her in it, it doesn't make me want to watch or not watch it, I'm neutral on LuSi. I just think this was the best acting I've ever seen from her. But yea I wasn't drawn to this drama or favorably biased toward it because of her.

I LOVED come and hug me too. I never really made that connection, but you have a good point.

I don't think it's overrated, but I also don't think it would have been a hit if it was cast with another FL. That "little girl" thing that the chinese females do sometimes is usually jarring or disturbing, but LuSi was so phenomenal... she was cute and not annoying doing it, unlike many other c-actresses. All their performances blew me away, LuSi included. It was perfectly cast, and I think that's a big reason why it's better than most dramas, because of the talent of that cast.

I agree, the last year or two they've really been stepping up their drama game.

You could try My Fated Boy or Falling Into You

It was so good... makes you wonder what he could have done if he had decided to stick around longer. So much talent, a really rich clear voice with beautiful range.

I'm sorry, I don't talk to people who gave SoKP a 3.5 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Yep, this is Korean George Michael, holy shit. So so good.

Whoa that voice is really a lot like George Michael's. So talented holy cow. Great recc! Now he shall be missed just a little bit more.

recc me a song!
