Cdramas are required to clean up the novels. It has to do with social morals.
And censorship. As much as I do appreciate the carnal nature of the novel (from what people have said) having them date is a bit more wholesome, and as a viewer I’m enjoying this interpretation in the drama a lot. Knowing the novel just provides additional context.
Just one observation, I wish the director and the editor could have been more clear about the time frame in this…
They lost some of the pacing with the cut. She joined in June 2012 and it’s been about 2 years. The seasons have changed as per the comments and she’s also had 2 Chinese New Years too. In the latest ep it there was a Valentine’s Day Poster. So somewhere in 2014. I don’t know how they’re going to fast track the next 2.5-3 years before the breakup lol.
I want to know if this drama is making married women jealous. My single ass wants a boyfriend, right effing now!…
I told my husband he was the one during our wedding speech because he is indifferent (aka in my mind supportive) of my exponentially growing list of hot guys. 🤣😭 Every year I discover new talent (c/k drama/pop etc) and add them to my mental list Buaha.
Hate to be the bearer of negativity but female lead can’t act! She remains with the same flat, Stiff expression…
I have only seen SQ in this and LSI1970s and she definitely plays that awkward character well. Perhaps the removal of the 8 eps also means that there isn't enough time/substance to their chemistry development. I somewhat agree that Bo Ran (and in LSI1970s Arthur), carried most of the chemistry and seems like they loved her more than she did here.
Other than the beach scene, and the first time she was drunk, really haven't seen her show him too much affection - partially because she's always afraid of getting caught.
I want to see if she gains more chemistry with him once they move the story to Harbin and she leaves Lime.
I love his little “punishment” too. 😭🤣
Toxicity aside, why are these two so cute?!?
