C drama "film" cuts!

Short Chinese "films" I find on Youtube which are on MDL! These mainly happen to be FULL LENGTH SHOWS that they cut down into an hour or so long video lol! Hence me naming them "film" cuts!

  • The Sweetest Secret

    1. The Sweetest Secret

    Chinese Drama - 2021, 24 episodes

    Film? COMPLETED

    Show? PTW

    I was surprised when I discovered this was on my PTW. This cut I found on YT brings the total length of this 24 episode 33 minute each show down to just 1 HOUR 23!

    This cut makes the main couple in the show seem like the side couple, and I get why it seemed like the "main" couple of the film seemed to have so little to their relationship but the "side" couple had so many flashbacks thrown all at the end.

  • My Girl

    2. My Girl

    Chinese Drama - 2020, 24 episodes

    Film? COMPLETED

    Show? Probably PTW

    I paused halfway through because I wanted to see if it was on MDL. Surprisingly, it was. I think this is one I'd watch the full show of! It was such a wild ride and I loved it for the silly drama! This cut I found on YT brings the total length of this 24 episode 45 minute each show down to just 1 HOUR 24!

    The film cut felt quite unresolved, and unless the show has it differently, for ML to get back with FL for THAT reason without telling her? Eek!

  • You Light Up My Life Again

    3. You Light Up My Life Again

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

    Film? DROPPED - 3mins 51 seconds in. TL;DR - The dubbing is so jarring that I'm dropping this one very quickly.

    Show? absolutely not watching it! If I can't stand the hour and a bit film cut, how would I survive the whole thing???

    This cut brings the 12 episode 35 minute show down to just 1h16! The title made me laugh so I started it, but I don't feel like I'll care for it enough to persevere through this. What's worse is that it's labelled 01, and the next recommended video has 02, meaning there are several parts to this "film" jazz. Presumably they just combine a few of the episodes into one "FULL" film.

    The thing that made me suspect the rest of this show would be generously dubbed wasn't the fact that it was based in Bangkok, but rather the music. I realise that Thai BL has some very... unique sound effects, which aren't a bad thing, but they helped me look closer and confirm that the two Thai actors who were obviously dubbed over were probably speaking Thai. Maya was the first person I noticed was obviously dubbed, and she appears quite early on. I ain't got the energy to deal with that.

  • Go Go Squid!

    4. Go Go Squid!

    Chinese Drama - 2019, 41 episodes

    Film? PTW

    Show? will see once i watch the film!

    This cut brings a 41 EPISODE 45 MINUTE show down to 1h16. I am highly daunted by the episode count, and I've also heard of this show. I think the rating can speak for itself! ALSO FL IS A WOMAN IN STEM!

  • Don't Mess With Ex-Girlfriend

    5. Don't Mess With Ex-Girlfriend

    Chinese Drama - 2022, 20 episodes

    Film? PTW

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O21aTb6zaQs - this is actually about the same length as what's listed on MDL for once! 20 episodes of 8 minutes in a film of 1h48

  • Ready for Love?

    6. Ready for Love?

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 30 episodes

    Film? Watched a few mins then started the show.

    Show? CW, but am considering dropping as apparently they throw in lots of twists to prep for a season 2, and that S2 seems to have a different cast. i don't get the point of sequels with different casts.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0cffQNpwF8 - 30 eps of 9 mins cut down to 1hr6
