Anyone know why many Cdramas stick the landing better in the second half than Kdramas?🤔 SO many 16 Episode…
In gymnastics, the Chinese win more Olympic gold medals than South Koreans. Sticking landings in real life carries over to sticking landings in dramatic life.

Chinese harsh to themself for some reason. Douban reflect of that. Currently Xianxia and historical dramas do…
How dare Chinese people voice their opinions about Chinese dramas!

They should ask foreigners like you how they should rate their own country's dramas.

Because you obviously know more about Chinese language, history, and culture than these "no life" Chinese fanboys.

It's all relative. Generally speaking, Chinese citizens are tougher on themselves and the products and accomplishments…
Hopefully...

Technically 4.123...%, but who's counting?

Your response is mildly entertaining and "decent."

You should rate it a 10.

By "give back," you mean regurgitate because you don't have any original thoughts of your own. But you cannot help being unoriginal.

:"Now, I also don't know or care why you were 'triggered' by my replies to you, but I will also be gracefully exiting this 'bizarre' exchange."

Do you have any original thoughts of your own? Or, do you enjoy regurgitating the thoughts of others (nearly) word-for-
word?

Xianxias and idol dramas in general rarely get a high scores from Douban. The Douban audience is very picky and…
Exactly. "Idol" dramas tend not to be as well regarded (as "prestige" dramas) by Douban voters.

What is it about my posts suggests that I did not see your "almost" qualification? I discreetly and literally stated that I did ("Yeah, I noticed"), and you're accusing me of not reading properly? Seriously?! Aside from the fact that "decent" doesn't correlate to an exact number, I emphasized that I was making a (possibly poor) pun.

Here's the thing, if you want to keep arguing about this or that part of your unorthodox rating system, feel free to do so. But I'm not that interested. I made an off-handed remark that a 10 is more than "decent" (which it is no matter how many 10's you give). Why you got triggered by that I don't know or care, which is why I'll gracefully exit this bizarre exchange.

You're generous. That's a good thing.

Yeah, I noticed. But you did give one drama a 6.5 and a "decent" (pun intended) number of others below 10.

You gave it a 10, so more than "decent."

Chinese OSTs really hit so differently. They have a way of drawing out feelings and evoke deep emotions 🥹
Chinese OSTs resonate much more with me than those from other countries. Aside from the music, the Chinese language is very poetic. Because of this, a lot gets lost in translation, but they still move the listener.

One reason doesn't necessarily preclude the other. Unless someone polled the Chinese audience, it's mostly speculation anyway.

The Long Season is probably more of an acquired taste that requires greater (insider) background knowledge and understanding of contemporary Chinese culture and society. (I'm guessing
because I haven't seen it. )

Regardless, you obviously have different tastes than the Chinese public. What's there to know or don't know?

Guys question, Is Douban ratings really reliable? I'm curious because all drama that hit and my favorites are…
It's all relative. Generally speaking, Chinese citizens are tougher on themselves and the products and accomplishments of their own people than outsiders. This includes their dramas.

It is this chip on their shoulder that helped motivate them to lift themselves out of crushing poverty into developing the 2nd largest economy in the world within a couple or so generations. Look up "Century of Humiliation" to get a better idea of the origins of this phenomenon.

As for Douban, a 7+ rating is considered very good to excellent for the Chinese fanbase. Falling into Your Smile's rating is sort of an anomaly. It had more to do with the realism (or lack thereof) rather than the quality of the drama. Apparently, disproportionately high numbers of the Douban-voting netizens have gaming experience and weren't convinced by the gaming aspects that, to be fair, did take up a lot of the drama and its plot.

All this is to say is that Blossoming Love's rating is more positive than it may appear at first glance.

Last but not least, your opinions may diverge from the consensus opinion of either the Chinese or the international audience. It's ironic and possibly hypocritical for you to complain about Blossoming Love's low (to you) rating when you give Moonlight Mystique a 1 (out of 10) MDL ranking.

I want to remind this to all of you that Vin Zhang is the Male Lead in this drama, And Wang Duo is only a sidekick....Don't…
I want to remind this to you that Vin Zhang doesn't need you to defend him. He doesn't even know you exist.

If Vin Zhang is gold and Wang Duo is silver, what are you? Aluminum foil?

Thank you. Thank you very much.

You gave all of the other popular C-dramas currently airing: Flourished Peony, Moonlight Mystique, and Guardians of the Dafeng 1 (out of 10) ratings.

It's fairly obvious that you have some kind of agenda. Why don't you spend more time supporting your dramas and idols and less time putting down others? At the very least, change your username from "Lovers" to "Haters."

Too many men in this drama have extremely punchable faces and gochus.
That means the actors are doing their jobs of portraying their characters.
