I guess they want to attract everyone and inserting this romance is suppose to draw in romance watchers. I'm mainly a romance watcher but I don't care for it in this. The main triangle and the boy with super sonic hearing are what's interesting to me. I didn't mind them in small doses, but now they're just taking up too much screen time and their scenes make me cringe so hard that I have to step out of the room. Can't fast forward because I'm watching it with other people lol. There better be a good purpose as to why they're going into the cave while Wu Xie and Pang Zi were left behind. My only consolation was that Qiling is also in the cave.

I've been eliminating one by one scenes that are shown in the opening and ending to predict who Xiao Guo will end up with and so far all scenes with little brother have been shown, with him finally confessing at Ep 21. We have half a drama left and I guess it will be her romantic development with her boss next. But I ship her with little brother so hard that I'll be so disappointed if they're not end game T . T

That's a good possibility, though it doesn't entice me to want to watch anymore of their scenes together.

She’s only mute, not deaf. She told Keanu wannabe this when they met.

I'm the opposite, I prefer Sun Joon's personality over Cheng Jun hehe. It made him a little more dimensional, whereas here Cheng Jun is kind of flat and boring in my opinion. Though admittedly, I do not mind looking at Wei Long's face for a long time so I don't mind it lol. The characters acknowledged it a few times that she's pretty and girly for a guy so I think inside they do think she looks like a woman. Since in those times, it's a major crime for a woman to do something like this, it never crossed their mind that any woman would dare do so. So I give them a pass for not making her look "manlier" and everyone just accepts that she's a man.

I read that they bought the copyright to the manhwa that Sungkyunkwan Scandal was based on so this isn’t plagiarizing.

The reason she changed her mind after and tried to get expel is because she heard it would be a beheading if she was discovered to be a female infiltrating a male school.

Oh nice!

That solo Qiling fight scene was worth putting up with the cringey romantic parts. I hate it whenever they have alone time together. I don’t like how they’re splitting up the focus and giving so much screen time to those two.

I wish they'd release the episodes on a more daily schedule. Waiting 5 days in between new episode release is truly torturous for this kind of suspenseful drama. I highly suggest anyone who hasn't started to wait until all episodes are out.

Same name

Lol they definitely don’t know what Mary Sue means. It’s a natural progression and good reasons why these guys all fall for her. It’s definitely three with the team captain too now lol. The ending of Ep 16 had me laughing and smiling because it’s cute and hilarious at the same time how Zhenyu mistook the gifts as hers.

You're welcome. Better to support the dramas at their official sites because the other sites are just pirates waiting to take their subs, that's why they're slow.

Have you tried watching on iQIYI’s official app or website? They release 2 new subbed eps everyday for non VIP members.

Agree. The fact that she actually went after that girl to get back the money she borrowed definitely doesn’t make her a Mary Sue. Mary Sue would’ve probably played a saint and let her keep it because she “needed” it. I really love the friendship development between all the girls. Liang Shuang and Jia Bao might turn into a really good “sismance”. All the guys they’re being paired with seem really sweet as well. I’m rooting for Xiaoguo and Bao’s lil bro rather than the CEO.

I'm actually watching Joy of Life just to see what the hype is about but I'm still snail pacing it for some reason. I was on the fence about watching Ancient Detective and Miss Truth so thanks for the recommendation. I will definitely check them out now since I have similar taste to yours :) Will try out Under the Power and Handsome Siblings, too. I just remember loving Jimmy Lin and Alex Su's version of Handsome Siblings back in the days so I wasn't sure about watching this new version.

I’m in the middle of watching JoL so I don’t have an opinion on it. I will say the fact that he’s essentially telling the story from a book is keeping me from fully immersing in it. Also hesitant to finish it since we have to wait years for the next parts.

We're in such a drought. There hasn't been any more truly excellent costume Cdrama(wuxia/xianxia) in what feels like years. I'm so nervous, but really anticipating the new Return of the Condor Heroes remake.

My exact thoughts. I would’ve been happy if he’d only lived those six months like it was said and then Yun Luo can carry on with their kid. I feel let down after the initial high. Need to go watch NIF again.
