Your review expressed my sentiments exactly. ! I thought I was the only one questioning about the lambo and the glaring plot holes! They are trying to make an intricate who-done-it but ended up convoluting the story. Even the climax wasn't a climax. I also FFwd Scenes with Xin Tang as I think she was just in the drama to shed as many clothes as possible.
I'm struggling to finish this drama but will keep watching since I've made it this far though skipping through half of it. I'm not a fan of over-the-top campy shows, and didn't realize this would be one. Oh well.
Edit: after reading all the comments, I've decided to just rewatch the movie and thats it! Id rather be heart…
Exactly!! I still have to find a BL sequel that justifies their existence! I've had to drop most, if not all, second installments of a drama/movie because they could not live up to the original work and this is no different.
I hope the initial panic and hysteria from some fans about what's going on with Teh and Oh-Aew's relationship…
Exactly, and a realistic ending does not always mean "happy ending" and "happy endings" do not necessarily mean "happily forever after." People only see "Happy endings" when a chapter of a person's life, "ends" happily, but we really do not know a couple's ultimate ending until they grow old and die. Snow White may end up having gastric cancer from eating all those apple pies; Cinderella may end up having swollen feet and painful calluses from wearing those goddamn glass slippers all day; etc. etc. Having said that though, I still do not get why they need to go down the cheating path; because relationships hardly ever fully recover once you lose someone's trust. Hence, I dropped TWM:NC despite my love for MaxTul because I couldn't justify adultery as a test of strength of a relationship. Sometimes, a better "ending" would be the realization that your best friend may not necessarily be your best lover and vice versa. TBH, I'd rather have a resolution that fits the narrative than a forced conclusion just to satisfy the audience's appetite.
I have watched half of the drama and so far so good. KMY's POV on fairy tales sure can be controversial but they ain't wrong either. They could be interpreted in so many ways and we can't say which POV i right or wrong because they are all valid.
About 3 episodes in, I think I've already guessed what happened to KMY's parents and Gang Tae's mom. But that's why nobody wants to watch dramas or movies with me as most of the time I've already predicted what will happen to the characters by just watching a few episodes and reading a few chapters of a story but that doesn't mean I won't watch this.
What bugs me though are those scenes where a young Gang Tae is together with an adult KMY or vice versa. Creeps me out more than those eerie scenes with KMY and her mother. They should just either stick to adult versions in the same frame or their child versions.
Great cast. Poor script. The Chinese version, “In Time with You,” is much better.
I loved the original Taiwan 2011 and Japanese 2019 version. Did not watch the Chinese 2018 version as it was too long for me, especially to watch 4 versions of the same story.
She isn't brainless so far and yes they end up together....good ending
If you hate idiotic FL like ISWAK story lines like I do (genius ML/dumb GL), then maybe you would have a problem with this. Honestly, that's why I did not watch A Love so Beautiful, disliked Boss & Me, dropped Good Morning Call and avoided all ISWAK remakes.
Sure, the FL here gets fooled quite easily but I did not hate it like those ones I mentioned above. In fact, for me this is closer to how I feel when I watched PYHOMS.
I may be the only one who found it funny/ironic that after all the effort they put into faking their deaths, TanBun just shows up everywhere before the real perpetrators are even caught (seems like not caring that one of these people who saw them alive after would snitch). *Face Palm*
Like Jay said, I think it's nickel too. Like how many people have a nickel allergy. It's not as common as pollen,…
But the thing is, even cell phones and keys contain nickel, so how he is supposed to prevent an allergic reaction if it was so severe that he had to use them in the shower? Btw, it was weird AF seeing him bathe with black gloves. Gave me BDSM vibes.
the ONLY thing bothering me is how that one boy who is basically a puppy was kicked out right away but for the…
I guess you have to throw logic out of the window when it comes to a lot of rom-coms. I have had to suspend my disbelief many times and drove my friends crazy with my questioning of every single part of a drama/movie. Just as we can't explain why a some superheroes wear their underwear outside, same goes for this question above. It all boils down to convenience.
I'm sorry but I hate Yong Jie's mother more than I hate Yong Jie. She has let him get away with so many things, excusing his bad behavior that no wonder he doesn't know there are limits to what he can or cannot do.
I totally understand Yong Jie's father as I would be more disappointed with my wife who kept such things from me than my son who was struggling to keep his sexuality a secret.
I'm also pissed at how Mgr Gao had the gall to threaten payback for his transfer. He should be in jail and Li Cheng and Mu Ren should have exposed his rapist ass instead of letting him walk all over them.
Growing up watching numerous C dramas, I expect people dying in most of it, so I wasn't even fazed that characters drop off like flies. For me drama wasn't complete without one of the protaganists dying, so I wasn't used to production companies releasing alternate endings to dramas like what they did to quite a few (WOH, Killer & Healer, Go Princess Go, Irresistible Love, etc.) just to make some audiences happy. I think tragic endings justify some dramas if the progression of the story calls for it. Like to revive Trinity in Matrix for me was utter nonsense and dead people should stay dead. Similarly, in K&H, the tragic ending becoming a dream is a cop out and unnecessary. But here, ep. 37 is befitting as ep. 36 ending the way it did, for me, was too abrupt.
But the question I still had in my mind all throughout this drama was, if they are ghosts, shouldn't they already be dead and can't be killed? Or is Ghost Valley just a name but they aren't ghosts?
I've gotten roasted for saying something similar. The series is a major disappointment. I skip through most of…
Yup. The trailer (Mork/Pi plot) looked promising but it became more cringey after each episode. Just watching it mainly for Mork's character and his quest for a happy ending.
Licheng asking Yong Jie for relationship advice and pointers? And Yong Jie saying Li Cheng's methods are too aggressive??? What in the Twilight Zone???

At the end of the series, he better be locked up.
