This drama is not Polyamory, it's a harem. The men are pretty much faithful to the girl who is having multiple relationships.

And in Polyamory, everyone gets to have multiple partners, it's not a harem. Meaning, the partners can have multiple partners.
if people don't see the immediate danger in that scenario, they are being blind.

Let me ask the question again, when a person is getting married, would that person reveal their past to the one they are marrying? People who have these kinds of relationships don't usually do. The reasons are obvious. The consequences are also obvious.

In a utopian world this would not be an issue. in the real world with new diseases popping up very frequently, this goes beyond the moral issue.
Case in point is the spread of monkey pox which is going around now. Guess how it is spread and which group of people are most affected by it.

Stopped watching it around ep10,

Do they ever get lost in Kunlun mountains as the title suggests?
At ep 10, the story was no where near these mountains.

Men or women should not be in relationships like they showed in this drama.

NO, it's nothing to do with moral reasons but more to do with health reasons.
World wide children as young as 14 are catching STD's.
a huge population of world suffers from one or other form of STD's.

While these relations on TV and movies seem cute, romantic and modern, in reality, some one in these kinds of relationships have much greater chance of catching and propagating STD's.

Just check stats for General Herpis in western nations & just think what could be the reason for it. Over half a million people are infected with Herpis every year in USA alone.

The stats are mind boggling. While the idea of drunken one night stand is shown as comedic in Asian drama, in reality, people who do this would run to a doctor for a health check up.

Last point being, people who sleep around don't necessarily share these details with their partners or the ones they are marrying. There are reasons for that, Once people harp on these reasons, the right choices automatically will be made.

This show looks like it is telling people to actively create and propagate STD's.

Another episode and another girl kicks her boyfriend in the face and the drama shows it as funny.

The drama is very good even without this sort of perverse take on violence.
It's not cool when a man hits a woman & the vice versa should not be any different.

is the writer of this show a woman with man issues by any chance?
The show takes a delight in beating up men.

Yet another Cdrama where the FL is crying over a man & the ML rushes in to save the damsel in distress.

This sells.

These dramas have that many men loving the FL sells the drama. The more men having cute and romantic interactions with the FL the better the ratings for the drama.
Conversely, you never see ML having any romantic interactions with any other girl than the FL, because that does not sell.

It is all about selling the drama and a large section of people who watch these dramas like their FL to have lot of men around her and ML to have just the FL near him.

It's basically a drama about a Mary Sue and her Dildos.

Thats basically every Cdrama.
All the men eventually fall in love with the FL.

agree to your points,
taking their age etc etc, it should not be an issue

but, this one particular instance has the guy practically raising the girl since she was born & then developing feelings for her. in the world the story is set in, this could not be an issue but in general, it should be bothersome & may be thats why I was bothered by it.

You are getting the story mixed up.

they were already in love when FL dies first time.
In the next life FL reincarnations falls in love ML's 'reincarnation'. In fact it becomes one of the sad parts in later half of these 2 reincarnations losing their identities.

The final pairing is the original ML and FL.

Even if we take what you said is true, by then the relationship between ML and FL was already established as romantic but the story pretty much shows clearly the identities are exclusive and plays into the angst that follows because of their identities.

ML and FL have zero interactions before the FL is a full grown woman.

FL and Tian Qi pretty much knew each other since she was born and he is involved in raising her.

It is pretty clear what their relations should not be based on that.

If ML and FL had interactions since she was a child, I would pretty much agree with you. They don't and since they are immortals, the age gap pretty much does not matter.

The only thing that mattered was the Tian Qi being part of her life since she was born, which makes their dynamic very different.

I find the character of the pupil turned father in her second life a lot better. The sacrifices he makes are much more impactful & he was like her real dad, no nonsense & very protective of her,

Tian Qi minus his romantic inclinations towards the FL is not bad but just can't look at his the same way because of the reasons mentioned.

It really does not matter, all the reasons and excuses etc etc...

For all practical purposes, he was one of the people who raised her.
He was in her life actively as a toddler and every day hence forth, not as an outsider but as family.
if that is not enough to imply what their relationship should have been, nothing ever will.
It's like a step-dad falling for his step-daughter, who he raised since she was a toddler.

Cdramas tend to make these kind of creepy relations very often in their dramas. This is nothing new. Have seen dramas where the brother of the ML actively goes after the FL even after the ML and FL are together.
the 2ML who many find cute, I often find them creepy as hell. It just may be my taste,

Like I said Tian Qi could have been a friend or father to her and the story would have been much richer with him showing similar emotions, concerns and affections for the FL. But since that is not the case, he comes across as a pervert who pretty much tried to groom a girl he knew since she was a toddler.

Must be in minority since I felt Tian Qi in ALP was creepy.
Tian Qi knew FL when she was toddler. He fed her, she played with him as a toddler, as a child and as a young woman. He was for all practical purposes a father figure to her. This made all that followed from him very very creepy, especially after FL made it clear how she viewed him and how he still kept persisting.

Remove that romance fact and let him remain as a father figure and close friend of the FL, the character would have worked better. His affection for FL would not have diminished just like how the pupil turned father in FL second life went about it.

With a father, brother and friend, there is unconditional love. A love without any expectation, which sounds a lot better than the creepy love Tian Qi had for FL. It felt like he was grooming the FL from when she was a toddler.

Cdramas don't do 2ML well. That's because Cdramas think they 'must' have a 2ML in the story. Many times it backfires for various reasons.

Thats the worst part, beating to generate laughs.

We would not laughing if it was the ML thrashing the crap out of the FL.

the FL does not bother me at all in this one.
She is shown as flawed person and it is that. All dramas do not need perfect ML and FL's. Having varied characterization of leads brings a different vibe. The leads as far as I am concerned can be very flawed and eccentric.

The only thing bothered me was the casual violence FL does on ML. It was 3rd or 4th drama I watched in last month on so where the FL is shown to be beating the ML with zero consequences or FL reflecting on it. It looks like these dramas are normalizing ML getting beaten by the FL. That was the only issue. Anyway, the drama does address this for a minute or so through ML but still..

It's a Cdrama.
It's always a harem.

It was for couple of minutes but it pretty much destroyed their romance.
I have seen this trope played out many times in Asian dramas & now a days I vomit a bit seeing it.

If it helps, their love story is pretty pathetic.

It's the usual asian drama trope....FL crying over another dude & the ML getting hots seeing the wailing FL and confessing.

Forget the romance, the story is very intriguing and the ML is giving a stellar performance.

In some close up shots of the FL face, it's pretty clear there is lot of work done there.
The eye brows especially look out of place.
