really dont like the way the segment with ML’s mother’s sister Liu Niang was concluded. did not feel earned. that woman’s actions were to easily swept away and then they have tea like she didnt utterly hate him????

mother figure, not mother. sorry perhaps i couldve been more clear. so she has no other history?

like he is genuinely what you want from someone who loves the FL but truly respects her. he confesses relatively early on, she kindly rejects him and from then on he is just minding his own business and never plotting against love or wishes her in any way. in fact he doesnt break any boundaries even when the main couple are in conflict. he is just truly someone who loves her and wants her to be happy. not like situ ling who claims its love but its selfish self serving entitled obsession.

i know 🫠 what a shame. bring back secondary male love interests like in BLOSSOM IN ADVERSITY

omg oh noooooo I HATE SITU LING type secondary love interests

hey fans, im behind on this drama, only at ep 14, but will definitely finish. HOWEVER I HAVE A QUESTION: is there more backstory/mysteries to the female lead? of is her history done as of ep 14?

(im not trying to jump to conclusions but it definitely seems so with the assistance provided by the ML to her mother/leader figure)

ok past the halfway point and yeah this is a gem. if it sticks the landing i see it being a fave.

my goodness this is a great start. at ep8 and WHY DID I THINK I WAS GOING TO HATE THIS?!!

just starting it after avoiding for some reason, and the first episode reallllllllly impressed me. its got me more excited than anything i’ve seen lately

second male lead had entirely too much screentime

man “Im hurting you to protect you” stuff is really difficult for me to appreciate.

mannnn i hate and despise the second pricess. what a pathetic person. (not character, she functions well in the plot but so infuriating)

cant answer everything but male lead is super powerful but not arrogant, he is kind and reserved.
there are many action scenes.
female lead is obsessed with male lead, utterly devoted.

im not caught up so thats all i can say so far.

how can SUCH a pretty person’s acting be so lackluster

no reason to hate the actor lol, he is just not good at acting. but the character for sure!

lol i guess it was that obvious 🫠

god his dad is hatable and also the worst actor in the show. does he only know how to squint to varying degrees???

also googled a bit, her rep in the industry seems mixed at best. her performance are often described as flat, but some are praised. generally it seems shes considered competent but nothing special. thats kinda how id describe her currently. again, ive barely touched the surface and ill definitely keep an open mind!

alright i accept that you didnt meant to saw we are wrong outright but that theres more to this than one drama can conve. i think i understand your intentions and they are good ones! i am truly excited to see more in large part because she has such a passionate defender as you.

i see what you mean, but i think forming opinons along the way is also valid, provided you are open to changing your mind once presented with more information. so these opinions might seem definitive, and maybe its appropriate to caution people to be open and encourage them to try to explore more of an actor’s works, but to say they dont have grounds for their is getting into debateble territory. im sure more of is will awknowledge these are observations in progress more than set opinions and judgements. and we all have a right to share our early observations.
