yui

When I first saw the trailer I thought this was an adaptation of the webtoon You At First Sight.

Kind of similar character but it's been a while since I read that and now I realize the differences lol.

omg thank god they added it to netflix, I was like why isnt Youku updating the episodes and I just renewed my youtube premium to watch cdramas SKSKS

nah, I'm more interested in romance genre tbh so I haven't watched that. I like the blend of romance and sports otherwise I would probably get bored very easily haha.

I did notice there's not much tennis live actions which got me interested bc I used to play tennis so I took a look at the POT drama trailer but the ball looked so CGI edited i was kinda put off LOL. They do a better job blending it in this drama

Does anyone know why there are so many chinese stories with speed skating LOL. I feel like this is the fourth one or something. Did it become popularized because Skate into Love was such a huge hit? Though I see some of these are also based off novels and idk if the publish dates are earlier or later than Skate into Love's novel. Just curious and interesing to see haha

I think your explanation adds more value to the script bc it really shows there are some genius talents out there and Song Sanchuan is one of them!

I just finished and it's the only cdrama I would rate above 8.5 stars. Idk why I just really liked it haha. I feel like China does pretty good with sports dramas. I also watch anime and I have never been that into sports animes but I have watched and liked a handful of sports cdramas lol.

And I have to say I wouldn't classify any Wu Lei drama as an 'Idol Drama' as Wu Lei isn't like your typical pretty faced idol and hes been in the acting industry a lot longer, he definitely has more skills at least! I really look up to him and how far he's come in his career.

wow thank you! I might just read the novel for myself later haha

that's what I wasn't sure about either. I think they are in the same sword though bc there is only one sword. maybe bc the mirror heart technique was performed near that circular thing on the platform (i forgot the name) that helped them reincarnate as a sword spirit together?

o gosh i died laughing reading the novel for this and hoped it would be adapted to a drama. I hope they make it funny still but not too cringy haha

well they died but if you watch the epilogue they're technically still alive as a sword spirit, but im not sure if they remember the past or not. But I agree i rated this 7.5 only bc of the decent level of production but i feel like it wouldve been better if they cut out half the nonsense. I didn't read the novel but I blame the author for dragging it on (sorry author lol).

true, that's kinda why I wish they stuck to the novel character setting. BC based on the novels between these two DFQC is more heartless to FL (bc in the novel there was no regaining his emotions part). But I wonder how the drama will portray Sima Jiao.

Dunno if the cast is confirmed yet but after Dylan's amazing performance as DFQC I would love to see him play Sima Jiao bc his evil dark lord acting was hot HAHA

that's good to hear! I am so tempted to start watching it rn but I want to read first bc watching is easier for me to do than reading so I might never get to reading it XD. I also remember reading go go squid novel once I heard the drama was being produced and then I watched the drama and it also followed the novel closely (the novel was lowkey more steamy tho haha!)

This time I hadn't heard any news about this drama for some reason so I am late to the game lolol. I guess we can always count on the drama adaptations to MBFB's novels!

Now that this drama is out I can finally motivate myself to read the novel which I have been putting of bc the last MBFB novel I read almost put me to sleep and kinda put me off on reading more of her novels.. TT

I've heard such good things about this though so I hope I'll like the novel and drama equally as I did with Go Go Squid!

honestly I agree. I am a bad romantic tho so I'm glad the novel ended on a more 'amiable' note but it's true he really didn't deserve her or repent enough for what he did to her. I kind of wanted the drama to portray what Ji Man went through in the novel though bc like @BearFightingFanBackAgain said I loved the novel for showing how strong Ji Man was depite all the sht that happened to her (and I suppose from a historical standpoint she won bc she got the man and kept her position as the main wife. or she could've ditched him and left the dream LOL)

But this drama version is definitely better for viewership and I've only seen clips so far but it looks promising!

Wow, I read the novel for this and its one of my favorite novels but the drama looks completely different. I liked the melodramatic undertone of the novel but I guess it would not be very popular for tv viewership following the current trends since the ML was a huge scumbag lol.

I'll definitely be watching this for PXR and Ryan though haha

I am so excited for thiss.
Tbh I couldn't really see Dylan as Shi Yan since I read the novel and was expecting someone a bit older/more mature looking (like lowkey wei zhe ming reminds me more of Shi Yan), but I'm sure he will do a good job and make the character his own.
And I'm glad to see they kept Shi Yan's glasses in the drama haha

Also I see everyone cursing MangoTv LOL. I suggest reading the webnovel if you want to watch this drama when it airs, might help with comprehending the scenes at least. I personally really liked the novel (it even made me cry but i also get emotional easily for fictional stories oop).

i just saw a clip online of the airport scene and I am emotional TT
I can't waittt!!!
Also Zeng Li will act as her mom again!?? That's awesome

I just watched Seasons of Blossom and then this.
I wasn't expecting to cry so much in one day damn I'm heartbroken
