OK, I'm on 15 and how many balloons can he fit into the trunk of a sports car? That's like physically impossible.
If he pulls the trunk and back seats down, the balloons can go in the trunk and spread all the way from the back to the front of the car. We’ve done it before.
This is my second Chinese drama filmed in Thailand, and both are airing at the same time. To My Shore is a Chinese BL drama filmed and aired in Thailand, which makes sense because BL dramas can avoid Chinese censorship by filming overseas.
But then there is Speed and Love, which is a straight romance drama and was also filmed in Thailand. That made me wonder, is it common for Chinese actors to go to Thailand to film? I understand why To My Shore was filmed there, but since Speed and Love is not a BL, why did they choose Thailand instead of filming in their own country in China?
Is Thailand really that hot? Jin Zhao is always sweating 😅
I’ve been to Thailand twice and I’m going again in a couple of weeks, and let me tell you, Thailand is extremely hot even during the cool and dry season. These actors were filming in long pants, in a foreign country, without knowing the Thai language, and still delivered such incredible performances. I’m already sweating just wearing shorts and a T-shirt.

Just one more question. Jiang Mu learns from her mum that Jin Zhao is not her real brother. When they reunite in Thailand, does Jin Zhao already know that Jiang Mu is not his blood sister and that he’s adopted? Or does he not know yet? If he doesn’t know, then it wouldn’t make sense for him to develop feelings for her. Did he always know he was adopted, or does he find out later in the series?

Thank you so much for the prompt response. I’m starting episode 1 and I’m so excited. Thank God they’re not blood-related. I’ve always loved the childhood-to-lovers genre.
The f**king puritans in the comment section are really getting on my nerves atp. Firstly - has no one ever taught…
I agreed with you and I said this many times on other series.
Watching dark or controversial content does NOT mean we support it. No one watches a serial killer movie and thinks, “Wow, I want to do that.” Fiction is a space where we confront uncomfortable truths. It lets us explore trauma, redemption, and the darkest parts of humanity, not to glorify them but to understand their weight and impact. That’s the purpose of storytelling: to create tension, challenge empathy, and hold up a mirror to society’s ugliest sides.
If we only accepted stories with flawless morals and perfect characters, we would lose Breaking Bad, Dexter, Joker, The Godfather, Scarface. Entire genres would vanish.
They are adopted cousins and not related by blood. But even if they were biologically related, watching a story that explores incest does not mean we support or normalize it.
Consuming fiction is not the same as endorsing the behavior it depicts. It means we understand the difference between fiction and reality, something some people in these comments seem unwilling to separate. Millions watch Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, or The Handmaid’s Tale, which are filled with rape, murder, assault, and worse. Does that mean all those viewers “support” those acts? Of course not.
Storytelling has always tackled dark, uncomfortable, and even controversial topics. If you cannot separate fiction from real life, that says more about your perspective than about the show itself.
For anyone who’s read the novel, did You Shu Lang actually sleep with the escort he ordered in episode 10, or was he just trying to anger Fan Xiao after discovering the hidden cameras? Did he really sleep with the escort, or were they just in bed pretending and waiting for Fan Xiao to burst in?
Most Chinese dramas are like this. They usually do not have their first kiss until episode fifteen or sixteen.…
Fourth rewatch, so you watched the drama four times without skipping a single scene? Wow. I can usually only watch a drama once, especially with so many titles waiting on my watchlist. I also noticed you dropped Fated Hearts. For me, Fated Hearts is actually better than this one.
Can we confirm this on iQIYI? I don’t always trust the MDL listing.
Also, why are they dropping 5 episodes at once?
Time for a break now.
I can’t wait for the next episodes. Thank God we get two new episodes every day.
