Yes! I also have all the songs on their own Spotify Playlist. That's how much I liked them. Tbh a show needs good music and good ost songs that will drive the plot forward and they can add more value to the emotions shown on each scene. By the way I agree with the I wish for you, it's a shame it's only on YouTube and I can't enjoy this with the others on Spotify. lol

Lmaoooo true

I'm rewatching it and dear God ALL romance dramas need to hire the music director of this show bc the OST songs were pretty incredible. I can't think of any other modern romance drama I've watched this year whose ost songs weren't at best mid. LBL really did the damn thing on all fronts!!

3rd mention of the crying and begging. If I don't see it happen I'll be very annoyed.

As someone that has lost my father from cancer that whole plot with what Wan has gone through as a child and 18yo with such a shitty mother.. I'm just annoyed. Also annoyed for the male lead 's past. We're talking 2 extremely traumatizing childhoods that would normally need a long period of therapy to help them overcome it as adults. sigh

On ep 16 and that birth mother is just such an evil person. E V I L. The woman doesn't deserve a good day in her life. Smh

You're welcome! I hope you enjoy that, I remember I felt butterflies watching that bc the chemistry and ost songs were giving. lol I hope you enjoy all dramas that you try out though. If not, luckily there are so many dramas out there. hehe

Tbh the ones you mentioned even as the most popular they didn't impress me much with some aspects that's why I recommended the 2 dramas that I actually really liked. On another note if you like historical ones, try out The Guardians (2025) which is a Republican one and its so far the one cdrama that has impressed me the most with everything, directing, plot, acting and editing.

There are a lot of good modern cdramas. I think you're in for a treat If you try them. Meet Yourself with Yifei is one of them, it was added on Netflix 2 weeks ago and it was really wholesome and Love Between Lines that was earley this year was super buzzy.

I'll be honest. I personally still find her acting lacking here. A lot of her really deep emotional scenes didn't hit that much for me. I'm not saying she did bad, it's just I didn't feel that immersed in some moments. Zhou Keyu visibly had better immersion in his character with more facial expression than Bao Shangen. However if they're both improving from their past performances good for them! It shows they have the right mindset for this profession.

One thing's for sure up until ep 14. Zhou Keyu is ACTING. I'm impressed. Good for him, I didn't know he could showcase a role so well. His future is bright.

I really love the Sunburn Ost song. Up until ep 13 they have played it 3 or 4 times. Its really a perfect song for the heartbreaking moments. I don't really like the other ost songs but with this one they really made a great choice! It adds so much emotional value to all the scenes they've used it! 10/10 song

By the way, sometimes I will start a costume drama but some of the acting will feel flat so I then go and re-watch Yuxiao in MJTY so that I get reminded how it is to be mesmerized by an actress's delivery of a character. lol

I love her so much! I've watched countless movies and shows (Asian ones and just as many or even more non Asian ones) but I've never cared for an actor on a deeper level but something about Yuxiao turned me into a fan the moment I discovered her as an actress and as a person. She is talent and light, I'm really excited for her upcoming projects and I can't wait to see even more people fall in love with our girl and become her fans.

The only time I wish Korean ent was like C-ent where they will cast the same main leads to a 2nd drama if the 1st is a hit. What I'm trying to say I'd love to see another drama with these 2 main leads as a couple with some other plot. Nway I'm fully content with the drama and how it ended. The most important point is when the actors are talented they can elevate a show from good to great! Were there plot holes? Probably. Did I care? One of the rare times I didn't.

Thanks!

Did this drama get viral? I've seen it doing super well on Netflix and it has crossed the 30k viewers here pretty quickly. That's impressive!

Which drama is AOUAD?

I've read Duling is known as an actress with one of the clearest pronounciations too, so it only pisses me off more that the production would do such a criminal thing to an actress that can carry on her own her role and is the only one that can showcase the character as its supposed to sound. These production teams should be ashamed for this type of decisions. I'll try again with this show though.

Can someone tell me if Duling will use her own voice later on the show? If yes I might try to persevere the annoying younger voice version, if not I'll just have to sadly drop watching it.
