Ha, you remember that? Yeah, I loved that drama. And as I said more than once, it's the drama that made me doubt the ratings on MDL. That I should trust my instinct and the reviews rather than the ratings.

I'm with you here! Amazing, unique drama and I have to say that Angelababy does a good job here. I wasn't convinced with her acting in "EL", but here, she is rather good. Maybe she needs the right role to shine?

I think her country and his should fuse or marry! I mean, his has an elected king, so it looks like a proto-democracy and he is in favor of women leading and being offered the possibility to be whatever they want to be and are good at.

Hers has talent for trade and therefore is wealthy but women, even the talented ones, are forbidden in business (the FL has to disguise as a man for her family business). Both countries becoming one would be a powerful nation.

As I said, a man of his time. Do you expect Ghandi? He didn't kill her even when he thought she was a man. And the nations of this dramas are at war. And he is a war leader, not a scientist or a doctor in the drama. Oh my, a war chief who kills, that's so shocking.

Worse things could have happened to her. At least she is alive, and he saved her more than once. He is even keeping her secret while she is on his turf because he knows what would happen to her if he revealed she was a woman.

21rst century morality doesn't apply in past times, whether in real life or in dramas.

I just watched the first episode but so far so good. Both leads are intelligent and can think fast under stress, especially the FL. She is clever, and seems to be working with her father creating weapons. I wonder if her talents go beyond weapons and if she is also an inventor. Who knows?

The ML is calm, and a man of his time, I would say. Violent when needed (to fight) but not cruel. Clever, too and intuitive. The actor has great screen presence. Many say that he is a bad actor but so far, I don't see that. I had seen him in a sci-fi drama and he was scary as hell in that one so I would say there are roles where he excels and maybe others where he doesn't?

Wait and see but as I said, I'm pleasantly surprised.

Oh, ouah, I didn't know depression could cause all those symptoms. Poor girl, it looks like her body was screaming at her that something was wrong but somehow, she thought that it might just be medical issues?

Well, she had medical issues, too. But it looks like a combination of medical issues, tragic family news, depression and abuse from her company.

She was so frail, so thin, so weak that her body finally collapsed. It couldn't take it anymore. Maybe it was like a brutal nervous breakdown that caused aphasia and paralysis?

To be so young, so pretty, so talented and to be so abused by people in this industry that she developped mental illness and physical symptoms is just horrible. I fear she is not the only one abused in this way. I hope Lusi's story will wake up the industry that they have to treat their artists well.

Oh damn, that's serious. One of my colleague's mother had aphasia after a stroke and her mother was only 47 years old. She recovered since she wasn't alone at home when it happened and she was treated quickly but it still took a few months for her to recover.

I hope for Lusi that's not the case for her and it's just exhaustion.

According to her friend, she wasn't even able to speak. SPEAK! That she has lost too much weight, it's obvious but it has nothing to do with the actress you worship. All artists in China are starving to please a mad audience.

It's because of crazy fans that actors, actresses, singers look like they could break, and also their managing companies pushing them to starve themselves to present well to the fans and sponsors and medias.

But not being able to speak (on top of not being able to walk) seems to indicate a serious illness that is not linked to her not eating enough but something neurological.

Be a decent human being and send your best wishes to another human being who is sick. If you are not capable of even that, you should leave this page, instead of showing what a despicable human being you are.

And look at that page, I'm never here because while I know this actress and I have watched some of her dramas, I'm not a crazy fans following her. I'm just someone who loves to watch Cdramas, depending on the summaries of them, not on the actors so don't even try to accuse me of being a "crazy fan".

I'm a normal person who feels sorry for anyone in her situation.

I haven't finished yet, no time for now, but what about the ML's sister? The baby who was switched at birth, did she die or was she adopted by another family?

It looks like it's another actor with the same name which is 5ft 10in (I googled it and the pic was not the same guy). On another site, with the right picture in front of the name, it says "189cm".

Thanks, that explain a lot. I'm glad there is an explanation. Sometimes, it's just jealousy of a successful son and I don't like that explanation. At least here, it makes sense.

Oh, so the mother we saw in episode... 3 is not Song Mo's mother?

Can someone answer: I'm starting this drama, why does SM's father hate him?

I would like to live in the same Pollyanna world as you.

In my realistic world, fans of idols actors are the same. I don't know why you target this actress's fandom in particular when it's spread all over the fandoms .

Are you kidding? Have you seen the horrors posted on the Lovely Runner MDL page??? hell, many haters went to WRITE AND POST bad reviews. They didn't just downvote the drama, they wrote reviews about it to show how much they hated it.

And the comments, yeah, right. It happens everywhere. In every fandom. As long as a drama is successful and the actors are idols actors, there's drama.

Where can I watch it, once it's available? the teasers looked so much fun. Like, the actors playing a reality show but at the same time, it's the characters from the drama in the modern world.

I wonder if we will ever know the truth about that crazy ending. But one thing's for sure: something went wrong, dreadfully wrong, with the people in charge of the drama (director, writer) to come up with that sh**** ending.

I don't know if somehow, they were angry with the main actor (although I never heard of him being a pain in the a**** on set) and they took their revenge on him this way? That would be so unprofessional.

But we all can say that nothing feels right, or normal about this ending. Like something happened behind the scenes. It just doesn't fit the type of drama, the healing feeling, the light rom-com that this drama was.

It looks like a fraud, yes. I mean, he signed a contract based on a scenario he liked. Sure, things can be changed along the way but the ending is the crucial part of a drama. It can make it or break it.

And apparently, the ending he signed for wasn't used in the drama. Instead another ending was used without his consent, or his agence/manager's consent? Ouah, that looks like some serious stuff going on.

We can see here that it litterally BROKE IT. Over here on MDL and in China.

He wasn't told the ending? Or he shot other scenes which were supposed to be the real ending but he wasn't informed that those scenes wouldn't be used and that the director would go the crappy ending???

Yeah, my favorite ending would be this. Like, all the characters had at some points been brought into the book and some have been present for longer than the FL and have mostly forgotten the real world.

Or... the book is in fact the story of a magic parallel world and the book is the entry door. Once they reach the ending, the characters are able to follow the FL to the real world.
