yippy happy ending... it was touch & go…

yippy happy ending... it was touch & go there at the start & i really didn't appreciate Xiao Bao having to beg & plead with Su Yin for Huai En's life. but everything worked out on the best side & ironically neither the mains nor Xiao Bao's father lost their lives. but the part i most rejoiced in was when General Li threw some much needed truth's in Huai En's "father's" face, not just about what he did to the woman he supposedly loved, but what he did to her son - that so needed to be said. also happy Xiao Bao stopped Huai En from going to see him one last time - that f*cker didn't deserve closure. ************************************the end was very sweet, love the small family they created with the guards & Xiao Bao's sister & laughed out loud at her constantly cockblocking Huai En tha was so wholesome & sweet. promise of happily ever after for the whole group not just the mains. *********************************************************************************************************************************this was good, i didn't expect to enjoy it as much as i did, for sure a rewatch

f*cking depressing ep - i couldn't see…

f*cking depressing ep - i couldn't see Su Yin turning into the main bad-guy of this BL. that was cruel what he did to both the mains, cause am sure he stole that pendant from Xiao Bao. as even if he isn't ready to admit it, he loves Huai En so much that he can't hate him & even though he keeps rejecting him until now, it's more cause of everything that's happened & everyone around him warning him off Huai En. so Xiao Bao can't bring himself to tell everyone, he loves Huai En & doesn't care what he did to him or his family. so Huai En finally getting the last crimson flower to cure him only to be left for death is depressingly sad IMO. & weirdly the eccentric doctor Que Si Ming is equally cruel, cause he helped prepper the trap for Huai En. ************on the other hand i found it ironic that Huai En's "father" got backstabbed by general Li - but loved that he put his straight & told him that he was the one at fault for Huai En's mother's death. someone needed to clue him into reality. personally i always wanted Huai En to tell him that if his mother was alive she would detest him for how he treated her child. delusional moron got the audacity to use her son like an attack dog to avenge her - bish plz **************************************************************for a while now i keep saying i have a feeling this gonna be a sad ending & i hope i am wrong. there still hope & a way to turn things around - but have a feeling i was right all along & the mains gonna end up dead. another tragic periodical C-BL. ugh

Pei becomes a real CEO

For the first time ever, Tengda is underperforming and truly losing money. In this circumstance, Pei doesn’t want his people losing by doing their best and producing a good product. With Xin getting approval, Divine mountains and seas gets an unlimited budget to fix the problem. At first the staff was hellbent on revenge and they were getting more and more stressed trying to outwit Zhou’s sneaky tactics. Pei reminded them what their job really was—to make the game fun to play. So instead of trying to out maneuver negative ad campaigns and online blocks, they fixed what annoyed players and used their talents to make the game be fun with max reward systems worked in. I liked that Pei focused on them getting meals and taking care of themselves. He is not stressed by his salary and wants what is best for the company. He has embraced being their benefactor for the project rather than saboteur to gain income. They have become his work family and he wants them to do well. When Zhou wanted to know the difference between him and Pei, he saw it with a bunch of employees circled around Pei having fun and enjoying each other’s company. While Zhou had made definite improvements in employee workspace, etc he really wasn’t concerned if the game was of good quality just that it looked like it was. He spent to beat Pei, not to improve the quality of the game. He lost again to his temper and even the guy that has stuck with him for years isn’t friends with him. I am not sure if the grin he had was seeing the difference in work family attitude or plotting the next way to take Tengda down. He is at least accepting responsibility for his behavior so baby steps in right direction.

Wholesome and cute

I stumbled upon this show when it was first released, wanting a Korean dating show that didn't feel overly produced. The concept of the mothers being part of it is what made me choose to give it a try....and I was hooked from day one.The culture felt very similar to the one I come from, which is that we are supposed to listen to our elders, especially our mothers. When you marry someone in my culture, we often time end up living with the in-laws. I was excited for each episode, found myself laughing, crying and getting angry with them. It didn't feel, most times, like they were acting or putting on a show. While I never forgot that I was watching a dating show and it was being produced, I could also feel strong emotions from certain couples that made me wish the best for them.My two favorite couples were Han Gyeul and Eun Na Rae, I particularly loved Nae Rae's mother who was cute and very affectionate toward Han Gyuel, I was concerned about his mother since she seems more strict and traditional. Honestly, until the very last second of the season finale I was at the edge of my seat with this couple.My second favorite couple was Min Cheol with Jin Joo, they felt like the cool yet pure couple. I love the way they interacted and the mothers interacted with them. This couple as well had me at the edge of my seat until the end.Music was really nice and I actually enjoyed the commentary from the 3 hosts, it felt like we were watching it together and bouncing off each other's thoughts.Looking forward to season 2 and I would def re-watch this, also recommend!10 out of 10.

the King asked that a guard be attached to Huai En for his safety, where he at?!? what he waiting for? i would think he would've shown up when Su Yin stabbed Huai En, using Xiao Bao. & i get that Su Yin is gonna try & get rid of Huai En & make it seem like it was one of the others, that had come for the crimson flower. but still Huai En is royalty & higher ranking then him. so what if Huai En gave up on the position. he still the King's son - idk what Su Yin is thinking... i doubt he is motivated by jealousy, as he hasn't once looked or acted like he has romantic feelings towards Xiao Bao. so he just doesn't like Huai En?!??
