I've been watching c-dramas for the last 3 years but bad acting and baby voiced FLs is something I can't get used to. I will not lower by expectations even for my fav actors, they are paid to do the job. So better learn it off camera instead of using dramas as acting school.

Exactly! Ryan is not the best out there but even in front of him she looked weak. This is why I normally don't post my views on MDL coz fangirls will pounce but sometimes one just can't... The moment I encounter a blind fan, I stop engaging. Far better things to do in life lol

Thx for understanding :)

Tolerating this only for Richard. The FL can't act and the dubbing artist makes her sound like a 5yr old which is very disturbing. Richard needs to bag better and bigger roles in good productions.

There are good c-dramas where grown up women talk and behave like a grown up woman should. So do not miss them, also there are very good chinese actresses so not everyone is bad.

Bad actors should go back to school and learn and only then get lead roles but we know how it works...

Yea there are blind fans who think their favorite is perfect and can't digest any criticism. All they can do is shout hater and run away lol
Most of such fans are youngsters and will understand once they grow up :)

I agree with you. Our expectations and the level we set for how good an actor should be is different.

I'm on ep 36 and sadly she still keeps pouting with the same voice. I know as usual it's the same child voice artist coz no normal grown up talks like that.

The acting of the actress improved a bit in these later episodes but such girls get cast coz of their face. It is even more evident when it's Ryan she is acting with! A better actress would have done wonders...

I've come across so many dramas where the ML doesn't deserve a happy ending and yet the woman is so easy. Wonder why writers come up with such stuff and we're told it's romantic!

oh no! I haven't even started 'only friends'. I've decided to start any drama once all episodes drop.

I started a c-drama 'love you seven times' coz of Ding but the story feels weak and the actress is the weakest. Her voice n body language is so childish. Many c-dramas have this problem with their FLs, but fans claim it's to show a FL is so innocent and I'm like wonder why other countries don't make grown up women walk n talk like a baby -_- lol

I also watched 'red, white & royal blue'. It's not the best but much better than thai BLs we're getting recently. You might like it...

It's not a normal voice, add it to the body language and it becomes childish. Her acting makes it even worse.

If only there was a feature where the audio would mute every time the baby voiced FL would open her mouth.

I started watching BLs coz of thai ones and I'll give them credit for showing other countries that this is a huge market.
When I watched Untamed I was sure china would defeat everyone coz they have such high quality and good actors but I forgot that this is china we are talking about.
Then arrived KP and I thought now thai BLs will seldom create bad BLs but I was disappointed once again. Korea needs to create long form BLs coz they can do it.
After watching Heartstopper, I can't digest bad BLs even more. But I know most fans(girls) will accept crap as long as the drama has gud looking guys kissing each other lol

ah ok, thx :)

Have they released only the 1st episode on YT coz MDL shows that 3 epi have aired

Like most lakorns the FL is stupid, giving many scenes where she embarrasses herself. She is scheming and rude. She tries to act over smart, marches in to help the villagers with no plan in her head. I wonder if a lakorn would ever write a ML in this fashion. Even if they do, they'll make him 'cute'.

FL even tries to kidnap her nephew but is easily fooled by the ML, is rightly kicked out of the village but is shameless enough to wonder how her actions were wrong!
She knows how her dad mistreated her brother for marrying a village girl, and yet she behaves just like, fooling the villagers, taking advantage of their kindness, trying to buy them with expensive stuff and pizza. When they don't wag their tails she snaps at them.

All this till 8 episodes. I didn't have any patience left so dropped it. Though I must say, the ML was not toxic at all. So many lakorn lovers might not like him.

Happy to warn a fellow drama lover lol

Heartbeat started off very well, it was really nice and funny. But then it went downhill and I skipped through the last few episodes so that I could finish it asap. The ML wasn't strong enough, and it got boring after a while :(

Seems like a young girl wrote this. The mediocre acting didn't help matters as well.
Not worth watching, there are far better dramas available.

Glad u found out :)
32 episodes is too late. I finished a k-drama just now 'heartbeat', the leads didn't get together for 8 epi and this is a 16epi drama. Then suddenly they are in love and I'm like 🤔😂

Once again, I didn't trust MDL ratings but went thru the comments and was prepared to skip the episodes in order to finish this. The romance wasn't there for the 1st 8 episodes and then suddenly was thrown at us, so I was never invested in it.
Seems like 2 different people wrote this drama, it started off so well and then...

Sorry, but I have no memory about this drama. I watch so many dramas that this totally went out of my system lol

I didn't want to mention but yea I meant Thai BLs, I'm struggling with them a lot.
We are in the minority though, I see loads of fans loving these BLs so why would makers try to improve. China would have given them a tough competition but it's almost out of the race lol

I would recommend Heartstopper, watch it if u haven't. I loooooved it so much!
