newbiefan:
10 modern Chinese romance dramas where the mother doesn't rule the roost, isn't manipulative or overly concerned about their main lead, child's marital or job status. She is allowed to show concern, she is a parent and it is only right to be concerned about your kid, but she can't be the stereotypical, overblown control freak.
BTW: - the lead actually needs to have a mother that has more than a bit part/passing scene or two in the drama.
more likely to win the jackpot than this happening.
The amount of times i've dropped c drama cause of controlling,annoyings parents or the usual tropes of working FL having exactly the same work problems every time,tire me.
Like i get it,it happens but i've already seen it 100 times,nothing is different from the other 100 dramas.
with that in mind
1.Love Is Sweet
Edit:just saw the BTW,i dont remember the parent's screen time so i will add a bonus
Bonus:Legally Romance
