WOW! Have you read it? Is it worth it? I started reading both the book and the manhua (the art was amazing!) but then the translator put it behind friends' wall and I never got to go beyond chapter 20. I am probably never going to read it : books are too expensive and the chances of finding this in my local (non English) library are zero. I was looking forward to the show but it seems to be stuck in development hell...
So right.. What made this series so popular when it was first released is - one, the insane chemistry between the actors and two, the number of BLs at the time (very few!). Word to the wise: do not watch the sequels (they are even worse than this) and try to avoid anything written by MAME (she made series out of all her books and they are just going from bad to worse!)!
I hate the articles titled like this: it is not the actress making a choice, it is the character she's playing. Can you get some journalistic integrity (if such a thing still exists!) and try to be accurate in how you title your articles. Please?
Ep. 1 So are we expected to suspend our belief completely? Or is the FL such an airhead that she does not see that the "fashionista" is a transvestite: as pretty as he is, his voice and his neck are a dead giveaway..... Anyhow, I could not finish the first episode, the second hand embarrassment (i.e. the cringe) was too much for me to bear. These cutesy j dramas are not for me!
I dropped this during the first episode just because of that: the little one annoyed me so much. I had forgotten about it and came back here to see if it is worth changing my mind....I am not convinced!
What were the responses to your question about her not going to med school? Were they all from young girls?If…
I guess the responses must have been from young girls, romantic and dreaming about the perfect man. Just like the FL in this drama (or at least the first episode). They came down on me like a ton of brick for not finding this romantic! I thought that wanting more out of life and not only attracting attention of your teen crush, to be more important and would give a positive spin to the said crush. How silly of me! ;-) You said it, it is creepy and I don't understand the appeal. But then again, I am not a teen, so....
Does anyone know where I can watch this that is not the overpriced app? I cannot find it anywhere: they are good at controlling their products, at shoretime!
Nice review! You lasted longer than I did: I watched only the first episode and could not see the appeal! The drama was recommended to me as a cute romcom. I found nothing cute about it: the stalking obsession is not cute. And then I dared ask why she went to nursing school instead of med school in the comments and I was trashed. The whole hell broke loose.....
So....It was racist, right? Not cut for length like everyone else! But racist because the winners are of Asian origin. Right? Let me get this straight, if you are a minority i.e. not White, you should be allowed to speak for however long you wish, otherwise those who stop you from doing it are racists, in spite of the predetermined programme schedule. (this is sarcasm, for those of you who cannot understand it!)
Nothing Thai? Or Filipino for that matter? They don't do women centric films or series? Why? I know they are less known : therefore the accent should be put on them even more...

Oh, grow up!
Actually, this should be good! The director wrote also some great shows already: The Gifted, MuTeLuv and Peaceful Property....
