Ahh I see. I just remember her doing some nasty stuffs in the drama and forgotten about this part. Thansk!

Sometimes, I enjoyed reading drama reviews from someone who hates it. But sometimes, I even wonder if we even watched the same things. But mostly all the description above are spot on though. X'D

I think the worst review/comment I read comes from YouTube. Probably because the age of those who watch it there so their interpretation of the drama is totally different from what the writer intended to. Its like they interpreting from their own POV and totally disregard other plots of the drama to fit their wrong narrative. I was mindblown lol

I agree. They dont make dramas like this anymore. :( I would love to see dramas with the same vibe as Negaboroshi or Summer Snow but for some reasons, Japan didnt make this type of dramas anymore...

Ahhh I see. This makes sense as well. He is probably good for nothing guy at the start of the novel. Then his growth will be a lot slower in the novel unlike in the drama. But the motivation to continue reading to root for such a guy will be harder I guess. :P

lol I guess that is just a façade he is putting to fool everyone. Earlier in the drama, he seemed to be that type of just wanting to play around (that is my first impression of him) but it turned out as the story get revealed, he actually a person who care tooo much. All he wants is a happy life with his siblings but he ended up having to take this big responsibility of leading a country to bring his siblings together again.

But I laugh at all the motivations that you wrote though. He really seemed like a good for nothing guy. He released the water guy just for fun? Doesnt learn martial arts because its hard? This is so funny lol

Even Zhang Ruoyan also said they are like 'bestfriend' lol. I was so surprised when he said that haha. I guess he also didnt feel the chemistry. He surprisingly has more chemistry with literally anyone else (male/female combined) other than Jiang Ni.

Avoiding Joy of Life is a big mistake since I personally feel its as good as Nirvana in Fire. I rated both 10/10 and its the only Cdramas that I give a perfect score. Joy of Life is lighter and funnier and while I love Mei Changsu so so much, Fan Xian will always be the most special character in dramaland for me since he is that iconic. After watching him, you will miss him whenever you watch anything else since he is so refreshing character wise. I thought the person who made the character is a genius since there are so many layers to him that he will keep surprising you again and again.

lol I knew it will be harem in the novel. When watching the drama, I was like 'okay, this will be his 2nd wife, 3rd wife and etc lol.

The fact that the Dad loves it when Fengnian calls him with his real name is an added plus. Its like when Fengnian call him 'father' then he knew something is wrong lol

What do you mean by motivations? For an example?

I think a lot of dramas watered down characters so that it will appeal more to the public. Audiences like to root for white characters instead of grey ones so scriptwriter always wrote to cater to this type of audiences.

I watched 'You Taught Me All the Important Things' decade ago and I still remember how frustrated I was lol. I just realized Haruma is only 21 at that time. Erika is young as well. But I love the airport scene when he is running toward her -- that some powerful scene. :P Or the cute ending scene where she see him off to work and he took her hand to keep walking with her (https://pics.livejournal.com/tsuyoi_hikari/pic/0004gw91). Somehow, those 2 scenes kinda make me forgotten how frustrated I was watching the drama. 8D

What make sense? I totally forgotten all of it. His action made sense later? In which part?

Like she said 'women... are stupid' and it hits me like no other. ;_;

This explained why many cant go out from abusive or toxic relationship despite they are aware of it.

I watched this drama like 10 years ago so all I remember is how hateful is Takei Emi in this role. What did Hikari did that you consider as she did so much for him? How she try to make everything better?

This is so true. I grew up watching Jdramas and I grew up watching the actors in various stages of their career. Now you mentioned it, I just realize it happen more often in Jdramas. In Kdramas, I can only name a few actors with the likes of Yoo Seungho or Yeo Jingoo but Jdramas has tons of them.

Which young J-actors who get adult roles? Would love to check them out.

Definitely Sato Takeru. He gonna ace this kind of role perfectly♥ :DDD

I would love to see they remake Flower of Evil though! They did awesomely with Maou which is seriously super amazing and I'm sure Flower of Evil gonna be glorious as well.

I think this is probably you watched their high school / romcom dramas where the over-the top acting is actually a thing (partly because the story is based on anime). I cant stand those either. But if you watch their serious dramas, they're really amazing. Some of the best acting I've seen is from Japanese actors.

Yes like ZZH's case. He's just hit it big with WoH and now he finished. :(

Yes I agree! Those confidence, how can they get them? I was in awe lol. They act convincingly as adult men so when I checked their real age and I was like 'what?!!' haha

Yes I envy those actresses. Such baby face despite they are in the late 20's. I think only in China those works since we seen more dramas with much older actresses and young actors unlike in other countries. When Korea/Japan do this kind of pairing, it obvious its a noona romance since the actor actually look their age.

Zhaolin is like an annoying little brother off the screen lol. He is like 3 years old when the camera is not on roll and all those noona actresses seemed to had enough of him and his antics. X'D
