I read comments such as yours before I watched. This is why I watched the scenes with Yi Yang carefully and I did not see any red flags. She made it clear she had a boyfriend and not once did I see her indicate she might be interested in him.

I was watching Rising With the Wind as it was released and I don't like waiting or episodes so I just stayed with one new drama. Then I wanted to wait longer so I watched another drama nobody talks about and liked it. I plan on starting Story of Kunning Palace. Come join me!

Just the thought of her...ugh. Hidden Love was beautiful. I don't want to tell you how many times I watched it. LOL! I tried to stay away from HL so I can have a good rewatch in a few months.

Delicious is a good word! I enjoyed it too. Some of it was draggy but I simply enjoyed it. There was always something in between the draggy parts that made me smile or laugh.

I had to laugh when she was texting her uncle telling him the other guy was more proactive that he was.

I started to pity him. She was really tough on him.

I think reading all the comments prepared me. LOL!

I watched FOMH and went deep into it. I even liked the brother so many disliked because I could understand his feelings for the FL and what they shared growing up with the controlling mother. I watched HL which some might feel was all light but I found it had emotional depth and I could see the contrast in the ML's childhood to to the FL's and how she helped him.

But I can also watch OFL and simply enjoy it. It is true that there is a lack of depth but it was enjoyable. And okay. I admit. Dylan Wang dressed in black leaning against his shiny black car waiting for the Fl was sweet to watch. LOL. It was also something to see this "cold" CEO cooking in the kitchen and being a much better cook than the FL. It was also great to see the interaction even if it was just the looks they gave each other. Sometimes it was just a quirk of the Ml's eyebrows. The FL was an accomplished finance reporter and quite smart. And she was pretty and attractive, but not too smart with her personal life, and relied on the advice of her best friend who was not too smart in the relationship area either.
I can see what you are saying and totally respect that. But in between all the different couples and all the different scenes are these little things each character did that made me like them. There were little things that made me smile or laugh. Therefore, it was enjoyable and okay if it lacked depth. If there is one complaint it was that the cheating ex-boyfriend was terrible casting. I know he was supposed to be a handsome guy she met in college but he didn't look it. Who is going to believe he once had two women to choose from? His personality was weak and totally lacking. But the good thing is that he played a minor role.

Next watch for me is Story of Kunning Palace thanks to your recommendation. I will let you know how it goes!

I feel the same. But I will admit watching Dylan Wang made me quite happy. I wish more dramas will have longer endings and not just end as soon as the couple get together.

Shi Yue was adorable. I loved the way she became Shu Yi's biggest supporter.

I enjoyed OFL and I absolutely loved Hidden Love. The first time I heard of AvenueX was when HL came out and she blew the age difference out of proportion. The show was not about grooming young children. She is ridiculous. I never watch her. That was my first and last time going to her youtube page to see what she said. After that, never again.

She looked upset everytime she saw other women around him. Then she acted tough as if she didn't care.

Shi Yan's little sounds I don't know what to call them, said so much. I loved hearing him!

I felt the same and felt bad for Shi Yan. But that was her guilt making her act that way. I almost skipped to 30 but wanted to see the other couples.

Sounds great! I am going to start it tonight and not bother with WOL for now.

Do you think maybe she didn't trust herself to love Guan Ji because he was a playboy? I wonder if her own insecurities made her give Shu Yi bad advice.

Glad you found it!

I think he felt she might have changed or realized she was wrong. I don’t think he had feelings for her. He might have wanted to help her earlier because she reminded him of the FL or he felt sorry for her. But after what she did to him, I cannot see him being attracted to her in a romantic way.

She told Shan Shan she wanted to tell him but Shan Shan talked her out of it. I am curious to know what made Shan Shan so wary. I wonder if it is in the book.

Many of us felt it should have been part of the ending. But it was better than nothing. The cast was beautiful. I actually liked the niece. She started out frivolous but she ended up wanting to learn from Shu Yi and became her biggest supporter. I almost fast-forwarded to ep 30 but watched all the episodes and there were some sweet scenes. And of course some of the later episodes were great once the couple got back together. If you are still watching SOKP, I will see you there! I didn’t trust it not to have happened one of those open endings that seem to be the trend this year, so I waited to start.
