3. Never Too Late
Chinese Drama - 2023, 37 episodes
by a stroke of luck, i have stumbled upon another work of bai jing ting.
i'm not saying all of his works are great, but i haven't watched a bad show of his thus far...this show has an interesting premise, aright plot development.
wish it was 40 episodes long so the last 2 episodes didn't feel so rushed :la lot of comments mentioned that the last 7 or so episodes wasn't fun to watch and i agree.
it felt way too different compared to the rest of the show's lightheartedness. -
4. Become a Farmer Season 2
Chinese TV Show - 2024, 50 episodes
-
5. Ping Heng Da Zuo Zhan
Chinese TV Show - 2024, 4 episodes
feels more like a giant advert than a reality tv show tbh...
activities in the show felt awkward, the 4 hosts feel like they haven't opened up with one another/the camera either.
which is weird as i have seen three out of four of them on another show and they were far from this awkward!! -
6. Mystery in the Box
Chinese TV Show - 2024, 10 episodes
-
7. This Is My Island
Chinese TV Show - 2024, 10 episodes
-
8. Shining for One Thing: The Movie
Chinese Movie - 2023
ah, a new parallel universe story that's unrelated to the previous parallel universe.
i'm not sure if i enjoyed this parallel universe setting as much as the drama, perhaps because there's less time to set up the story and their undying love for one another.
the jumping of universes by ML here is also a bit messy at times..didn't enjoy the plot hole where FL suddenly didn't go back to her original world after hearing ML's name at the end >:(
i do like the end quote of "for every unrequited love, there's a happy ending in another universe" though!! warms up my hopeless romantic heart
