true, it's toxic mindset at this point

Ofcourse this is not Hidden Love, its title is called The First Frost. It only shares the same universe as HL and the ML Sang Yan is the older brother of FL Sang Zhi in HL, this is the only connection the two have otherwise they are both completely different. This drama leans more to slow burn romance and has more depth and maturity. Whereas Hidden Love leans more on fluffy romance which is easy to watch casually while this drama might be slow, it tackles aspects that hit on an emotional level hence the storyline has more depth to it and is more compelling. I get you might not like this so to each their own, but if you come here thinking this is HL then that is the wrong mindset.

I am rewatching atm 🥺😭

yes, glad we agree on this!

Yes there was a specific area where they keep their shoes in, but they don't wear it all throughout the house. I have visited my friends house who is chinese before and this type of thing is normal, we bring our shoes in by the same shoe area then change into slippers. It's actually not just them that does this, am asian as well and in our household we have this as well.

TFF is the most popular novel written by Zhuyi, this is her first actual novel and it's known domestically, also Sang Yan's character is the most popular character written. Many had anticipated this drama because of this. As for HL, yes it did become popular internationally so it does have some influence especially for those who aren't novel readers and only followed the drama but you can't deny the fact that TFF has its own popularity separate from HL. It wasn't all HL drama work that made TFF popular, that's a discredit. Like you said yourself, respect all series then you should know HL is not the only basis for TFF's popularity.

I noticed this too and it hits so much harder, what I found even more meaningful is how Wilful ost by Mayday was used in the proposal scene and Sang Yan is the very embodiment of being intentional so it suits him so much.

this is actually pretty common in modern cdramas, they always have that space where they keep and wear their shoes on 🤭

ikr it's so romantic, you're welcome ☺️

true🥺

ikr I just hope it stays

right 😭

I hope it refreshes later 😭

I'm glad it's finally back to 9.0 🩵

it clearly didn't match up no wonder our rating fluctuated, hopefully others can rate the individual episodes too.

in early airing of the drama it's expected to have low episode ratings as there were users who were downrating it even when episodes have not yet been released, after drama ended and more users rated the drama the ratings for each episode was supposed to increase as well but yeah it is lower than before because some were obviously downrating it

true 🤭🤣

yes, that's because some downrated so it remained low instead of increasing

true but still hoping it does because this deserves it

encouraging everyone to do this in order for us to stabilize the 9.0 rating, our episode ratings are quite low and are being downrated hence the constant fluctuation in the rating.
