Cute but not remarkable. I feel the FL and ML could not match in chemistry, leading to a rather dry show. Comedy wise, there could have been so much more the writers could have stretched the script.
Overall - ok watch but neither your heart nor your brainwaves will flutter.

"Knetizens would have cried if someone would have make weird/unclear/inappropriate/misunderstandable reference to the jeju crash but for victims of other nations in an ongoing genocide apparently it is ok"
- Apparently its always ok if brown and muslim people are killed and then somehow blamed for their own murders. This is what propaganda does and I don't care how many people whine "but its just a drama1! lulz just dont watch it thennn~~". It's not just a drama. For many people it's their reality. People on MDL really need to mature up and go look at exactly what is happening in Palestine and how many journalists have been targeted and killed for speaking the truth for 75 years. Every single person here pretending this isn't a big deal lives a very very sheltered and privileged life.

100% Amazing!

Free Palestine foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Nooooooo not my Lusi :( I hope she takes a break and just focuses on getting better.

That is how propaganda is done though? You make the names sound similar enough, show people of a certain race/religion enough doing bad things and people start unconsciously building connections in their mind. It may not strike you as a connection but it clearly has to many others, which means it is a form of propaganda. Esp one that is twisting to show the real life victims as the perpetrators?

thank you for the warning.

I'm not arguing that the plot is bad, it's the script that is weak. That means the adaptation of the novel from the drama script writers wasn't great. Also great that it won awards but my opinion is mine so it still stands? Not sure what you're trying to argue here....?

I can't remember their names but the guy with the red hair and the daughter or the super rich dad.

100% agree on the cartoonish villains. It completely destroyed and belief I had in the show. Not even lovable bad, just bad... When the fake Cui Lin just walks out after revealing he is evil now,,, I was done with this drama. Plus the ML's actual dad and brothers...the writer just needs to learn to write stronger scripts and the secondary characters need to not over act as much (but I'm not sure it's the all the actors faults given the script).

This could have been so much better. The ML was really the strongest one holding the drama together but at ep 21 I just couldn't force myself to continue. It's really draggy, too many filler scenes, too many pointless villains who add nothing to the story. And finally unfortunately a FL who is actually great in the fight/strong scenes but really stiff and unnatural in the emote scenes. There are so many scenes where should have been overjoyed or really felt betrayed by other characters and I saw nothing but stiffness.

The dialogue is also not strong so half the time the characters are just repeating themselves. I swear the ML talks about the same story about growing up about 3x.

I read some spoilers of what happens in the last 20 episodes and given how repetitive it already was at 20 and continues to be for the next 20 it's not worth continuing. It's so hard to find a happy ending with so much romance in cdramas this year, I was hoping this could be a strong contender.

But after watching half of this I will definitely be on the look out for more Xu Kai dramas as I have skipped most of his other works for one reason or the other.

None, It's purely platonic. There's a sub sub plot of romance between 2 minor characters but basically this a non romance drama. But even for romance junkie like me it was a great watch (you have to be in the mood for no romance though)!

Not really, it's very friendship focused.

Same! And not always but sometimes it is really helps me find some true gems!

Hopefully he doesn't need to spit out blood in this one! hehe

I was looking for something to fill my time and usually I need romance in a drama to keep me watching. When I picked this up the 1st episode was a bit hard to get into but then then by the 3rd I couldn't stop watching it.
This was soooo amazing, the cast, the production, the cgi fights, heck even the slapstick comedy was amazing. The FL was brilliant and really was in her character. I was so impressed with her acting. But the main star is really the ML who played Chulan. Everyone talking about Wang Ye (who is great don't get me wrong), but the effortless switches between emotional scenes to comedic ones was something that was so great to watch. Peng Yu definitely deserves all the praise for being so talented.
The story gets quite complicated towards the end and I presume because there is a season 2 there will be more clarity for the 8 superpowers? I didn't really understand what happened and what exactly is Chulan's superpower Qi Apothesis supposed to be? Can he pull people in for help as needed? I just need to know what's it all about!

If you are looking for something to watch, this is a goofy but heartwarming action drama with an amazing cast and production!

Nice list - saw a few of my favs in this, esp Healer. It's my feel good drama to watch, probably watched it around 20 times already ( and I don't actually rewatch dramas)!

I would add Love Like the Galaxy for great characters, script and amazing cinematography & Love Between Fairy and Devil for amazing everything.

Cute but got boring. ML was too stiff in a lot of scenes, and his voice was so soft in parts that needed a little more emoting.

First half is definitely better than the second. I skipped to the end from ep 24 onwards based on the comments below. A meh watch but watchable.

Also....really hated the cigarette ppls in the first half. Since when did broadcasting allow smoking to be advertised so freely again...

At ep 8 and struggling with this one. I loovveee SMA and Kim Young Dae is quickly becoming one of my fav MLs in kdramas. But the writing here just sucks. Everything else is good, the direction the comedy, the chemistry (though a little lukewarm) but the writing sucks. SMA character here I found to be quite similar to Home-Town Cha Cha but there because the writing was better you could warm up to her cold character. Here you just can't.

It's sad cause I realllly wanted to love this, tried going back to it 3 times but reading some of the spoilers below of the last episode it isn't worth struggling through.

I agree the the writer and CEO story line is way more interesting. I hope the leads next dramas will be better!
