I'ts taking so much time to get through the rest of ep 19. This is so heartbreaking.

Yao Yuling needs to be smarter than that if she wants to be a golddigger. She should have waited longer, if things still look grim after a long time she can drop the boy 🤣🤣

Fastest relationship award 🤣🤣.

Wang Xin likes Yao 😲 i sense chaos in that courtyard.

I love Wang Xin, Yao and Dali love triangle, he is always unintentionally blocking Dali. Dali is a crazy funny character "Yao is mine don't steal from me " 😅. Someone needs to inform Yao 🤣🤣

You're welcome 🩷

The chicken episode was too funny 🤣. I'm still in the early eps but its been incredible so far.

They do a lot of stupid stuff but they are kind, brave and have camaraderie, so its a good group of characters.

yeah the drama does a good job showcasing their journey, so i'm looking forward to their growth.

In all eras teenagers will always have that rebellious and arrogant nature, thinking they are invincible and know better than adults. I'm just facepalming me myself with so many of their decisions and actions, like Fenghua signing that contract 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️.

I watched a few eps and its so heartwarming🩷 Bai lu probably had a lot of fun filming a tomboy character. I remenber one of first dramas i watched from her , was Arsenal Military Academ, and she was disguised as a man. The 2 characters have different period settings and mannerisms so they are very different.
I laughed when she said she wanted to hug Chris and leave a lasting impression even if its uncomfortable. Thats sasaeng tactics 101🤣 Wanghe needs to thank his guardian angel because i'm not sure how he is alive after all his shenanigans.

I didn't notice my mistake, thank you for pointing out 🫶

Ok sounds good to me. I just watched 2 eps of Northwards and its super good. A real heartwarming start, i think you will like it.

Actualy Story of Minglan is my favorite chinese drama, how could i not even mention it ? btwi'm adding Marvelous Woman to my ptw

Depends on the genre you like.
📌If you want slice of life in the chinese economical reform period: Romance in the alley ( late 70s to 90s) Always on the move ( late 70s) Wild Bloom ( 90s) The youth Memories ( 70s to 90s)
📌For crime dramas with interesting plots: The bad kids, The Knockout and Drifting Away.

📌 For mature romance, divorce and relationships in general: Delicious Romance ( this drama also has covid protocols shown), Nothing but thirty, Alliance ..
📌Meet Yourself and To the wonder have super pretty cinematography and show chinese ethnic minorities

📌 Scifi : Three body problem and Reset

These are dramas that i watched and enjoyed and none of them are typical idol dramas .

Youku will be cutting a lot of dramas going forward. I think 23 eps for a modern drama it's fine, but i just hope they don't butcher their historical dramas.

I'm still in the vibe of chinese 70s dramas so i'm starting Always on the Move. The sisters father and Ms Liu are also in this drama🩷. I'll probably put more dramas in this genre on my watchlist.
