Lol, cringy crying to me. And not emotional at all. Like shes just throwing a fit. But give her a chance, she…
Yah it wasn’t even that she cried, but the way she went about it was just oot and ooc. I kept wondering the whole time if she was faking it. She’s more tolerable for me in the more recent episodes, but I’m still not emotionally attached to her.
I have been waiting for this drama for quite sometime. So far it's a decent watch. Bai Jing Ting is the star of…
I agree, which is surprising since I found her likable in Joy of Life. BJT is the one carrying the couple for me. Production value is very great quality though and eps 9-10 seems promising.
Good to see it's actually 40 eps again. It has a touch of New Life Begins feel to it. The sets are beautiful and that wedding ceremony was wonderfully filmed. I also like that they've kept a lot of the natural background sound effects, as well as using the actors' real voices. They could lower the bgm though. It's a bit loud and distracting sometimes. Bai Jingting is definitely carrying this show at the moment as far as plot and characters go. However, my interest peaked when Liu Xueyi showed up. I completely forgot he was in this. I'm intrigued about his connection to Gu Jiusi. Also, iQIYI heat index passed 7,000 on premiere day.
Just finished first two episodes :( Waited so long for it, and now I don’t like it :(((( the scenes are cut…
I agree, there's something off about the direction and editing of scenes. It's all so stilted and doesn't flow naturally. Like you can see that it's staged. Cinematography is beautiful and I love that there's no skin filter on the actors. Seven is great as always.
I can't stop laughing in episode 9 and 10 for negotiation scene... and buggy jumping scene... love this drama..
I died when they got to Xiao Bai and he was nodding along like he understood their logic but he really was so lost 😂. The actress surprised me with this character. Made me like her so much more now. I almost forgot she was in LBFaD too. So this makes it her third time working with WHD that I’ve seen.
'love him too. Sad but funny how invisible he is - the camera actually made him invisible when he nearly got caught…
I feel like he’s also a nod to all the reserved, introverted people in the office environments. The quiet ones who might go unnoticed because they don’t have much presence, but usually are the ones who are the most efficient and get the job done.
It has a sitcom format. I kinda like it for the moment. As an international viewer, I feel like some jokes/references/puns…
The jokes definitely get lost in translation. The most obvious example was that text message scene at the end of episode 3. I cracked up so much because I understood the original phrases, but the English subtitles conveyed none of it. It's a shame. I'm really loving the dynamics between Zheng Kai and WHD's characters and also the little 'easter egg' scenes they insert into every episode.
The formatting of this drama reminds me of an American sitcom show. Every episode is a mini arc within an overarching plot of the three main leads. Zheng Kai's character wanting to become the team leader, CYQ's just wanting to do the bare minimum at work, and WHD's trying to prove himself without the influence of his family's background (ironically he still got the influence of being mistaken as the CEO's nephew 😅). It's an easy and entertaining watch where you could pretty much just watch the episodes in any order and it would still make sense. Kind of like watching random episodes of Parks and Recreations or The Office. The 8 screens flip phone like an ancient memorial to the throne scene and brainwave typist at the end of episode 2 had me dying 😂
Update: It's now at 6,500.
