Nothing hits like Xiao Jiu Jiu buaha. It gives me Only for Love vibes haha.

She explains it in ep 4 during the convo with her dad. In the flashbacks you can see her getting bullied in high school. So to avoid the stigma she doesn't wear it, despite only being able to hear on her right side.

LBL was one of my favourite Cdramas of 2026! That said, there is some overlap given both released this year and LYX filmed both in 2025. Though her characters are polar opposite. Eg. bubbly and straightforward vs socially awkward.
I do think the build up isn't the same vibe as HL or TFF but the youth connection is there. It's interesting to me cause FSZ is meant to be the 'most handsome' out of Duan Jiaxu and Sang Yan but I prefer the other two over LY. lol

TFF does start off a little dark too.
If you continue the eps, it’s good. LYX is really quite endearing as YL.

In episode 3, the ML’s nephew, the one Yun Li meets at the airport mentions Sang Zhi, so there’s the first reference there.

In HL the ML has issues, the FL matures and shows support to him to overcome his trauma.
Both HL and TFF have varying degrees of trauma, will be interesting to see
How both leads overcome theirs in WIMTM

There are diagrams online of how ML is connected to Sang Yan. Might be like in TFF where the characters are mentioned but different actors play them. Ie the mentions of Duan Jiaxu.

Sub par cinematography, direction and CGI/AI use aside, I’m coming back from Lament of Autumn, and I think I actually prefer Overdo more. LOL. Perhaps it’s a nod to the republican era, but this show was severely less toxic, exhausting and at least Qingyi was less of a red flag (if at all).

I say do over drama for our main lead couple please 🙏🏼

Express release on YouKu on the 3rd. Netflix will air one per day until the end...

That trope is fine...until it's not.
He went from strong and supportive to clingy and supportive. I know this is a 30 ep show - the first half focused on the identity crisis and the second half on palace politics. But seeing Wei Rao's shift to actually love Lu Zhuo would make it more convincible. We see TINY glimpses of it - but it would nice to see more.
It's like he has to go off to war and almost die for her to realise she truly loves him, and not a solar eclipse. lol

It's the eyes and the slightly softer features. But yes she does resemble LYX a little!

Who in the Gen Z is doing subtitles for this!?
Ep 28: " Why did you bust your ass to marry her? "
"You're not shooting blanks are you?" buahaha

Oh my thee republican era busting Yu Changxuan's chops for not getting any action LOL.
This man is clearly obsessed, but patient in his own weird way lol.

From handsome man, to handsome man, to handsome man. SWL ATE Love for You this year (I was actually skeptical of his acting until I saw that drama). Now I am just waiting for him to spit blood at TXW mentioning divorce or a break up buahahaha

Thanks <3

Do we know the airing schedule after ep 21 tomorrow? Assume a few more days and then express later this week for the remaining 9 eps?

He’s helped her from the start, and him knowing her is also the very reason why he loves her.

Finally! Under the premise of an alliance but we got flirty, scheming skinship and I’m all for it haha

The scene with him carrying the sticks, I was like LOL wth why is he topless?! 🤣

A dream within a dream vibes 🤣

They’re drip feeding until ep 21 tomorrow and will likely drop express later this week
