Genuine question—was it ever explicitly mentioned that she can only report from outside her country and not from within?

Yeah, I remember now—there was that smoke and ruins behind her in EP1. It might truly be a production oversight. As for the scene with Li Zan diffusing the bomb in the car, I have to agree, hard agree. The focus was mostly on the car’s explosion, but the surrounding area wasn’t really shown. To be honest, the explosion itself didn’t feel all that impactful. It seemed underwhelming. 😂

Yes, exactly! This is such a flaw in the MDL system. Several recent dramas I’ve watched have faced the same issue—haters bombarding it with low ratings before the drama has even finished airing. They really should allow people to write reviews only after at least more than half of the episodes have aired.

Wait, so you're saying the road she was walking on after the bombing in EP 1 was the same site that was bombed? I didn't quite catch that... 😳 I remember the background of the destroyed part of the city, but I didn’t quite recall the road itself.

They watch the first five minutes of the drama and suddenly act like they’ve figured out the entire plot or how it’s going to end. It’s honestly insufferable. 😂

I know, I know. Just kinda want to mock to those people.

Hahaha that’s not what I mean maybe you’ve read my original comment wrong 😂

This narrative is getting way too overused. Just because a drama gives off a certain vibe doesn’t mean it’s a copy. I’ve watched DOTS and read The White Olive Tree’s novel, and honestly, there’s nothing similar.

For those who’ve rated episodes 7 and beyond, where exactly are you watching the rest? I can’t believe iQIYI playing favorites and letting you guys watch before everyone else 🙃🙃

If she had been portrayed as a crybaby from the start, it would’ve made more sense. Even though the ML did see her cry several times before, that scene at the hotpot restaurant was just hilarious 😂

Probably a pretty severe case of love at first sight for the female lead. Though yeah, I personally think it would’ve been better to see her upset about him having a girlfriend rather than crying like she did. Kinda funny. 😂

The part of the city that was bombed was likely just a small area, maybe a district, and not the entire city. I’ve never experienced anything like that in real life, but I imagine the rest of the city has to keep going despite the terror. In the book, there are also several more attacks to come.

Supposedly, Jiang Lin. During the closing song, there’s a glimpse of the male lead visiting Jiang Lin’s brother—who looks both furious and sad.

I think not yet

“Each episode was a cliffhanger” HAHAHAHA, what kind of cliffhanger do you expect after watching just two episodes? Next time, maybe hold off on writing a negative review for a drama that just aired less than 24 hours ago.

Take a deep breath—no one’s chasing you or even asking you to change your mind. However, your arguments are all over the place, and I can’t resist calling it out. What a child. Bleeee.

The ending of the book was a mix of both. I think it’s kind of realistic because as the story progresses, it gets heavier and darker, eventually focusing on survivor’s guilt and PTSD.

Shen Bei likes the male lead, but I think it’s mostly physical attraction since she doesn’t really know him—at least not beyond his name and occupation. If I remember correctly from the book, Shen Bei won’t play a big role in the story, as the focus isn’t on a love triangle.

That would be lovely if I could make money out of this, but nope. And as much as I wish it were that simple to be the happiest person, like you said. But well maybe I’ll cut you some slack—because apparently:
- You dropped the drama but said you’d watch it again. (Sounds pretty contradictory—or maybe you just don’t know the difference.)
- You just recently got into Chinese dramas, which is great, but maybe dial down the audacity to trash a show when you’re practically new here.
- You mentioned high expectations but can’t even name one. Too bad. Rubbish.

You being a Marvel fan has nothing to do with this—cause comparing a Chinese drama to a Marvel movie isn’t even fair to begin with. If you claim to have high expectations, then what exactly are they? Even if you’ve read the book, the drama has stayed faithful to the original story up to episode six. Yet, you watched only two episodes and called it a disappointment. There’s a fine line really between a fair review and just saying, “I had high expectations, but now I’m disappointed.” 👾

But anyway, it’s very telling how your reviews are pretty much rubbish cause you said you don’t like Gen-Z and guess how did you rate it? Hilariously, a 10.

I have no idea where they pulled all those paragraphs from when I’d bet they haven’t even watched a minute of the drama. Try asking about the plot so far—let’s see how much they really know 🙊
