TFF's timeline was actually wrong. SZ should be in college during the video phone call. Because she never contracted…
It's probably when he is in Yihe working, and she is preparing for her exams in Nanwu. At the time they were in touch. He was sending her gifts. Correct me if I am wrong?
Yes, they are a good drama. From acting to the setting, I think it reflects what happened in Song dynasty life.…
Oh wow, I didn’t know this before—thanks for sharing! It’s really interesting how the drama stays faithful to Song dynasty culture and values rather than incorporating modern ideas. The caste system dynamics you mentioned add so much more depth to the story than I initially realized. And that detail about Kang Ning and Chai An’s marriage makes a lot of sense now!
Also, A New Life Begins is actually one of my favourite dramas! I guess that explains why it feels so different despite being a costume drama.

I completely agree with you! The drama does a fantastic job of portraying the complexities of its characters and the era they live in. While it might not fully capture the harsh realities of the Song dynasty, it still gives us an engaging and layered depiction of life back then. And yes, their flaws make them compelling, and that’s what keeps the story interesting. I’m glad you appreciate this aspect too!
The complaints don't make any sense. These characters are grey, and that is what is unique about this drama. Isn't it nice that they all have flaws? That's how a story should develop, ultimately better positioning itself to create good character development. Give it some chance before thrashing it!
I now understand why the start of this drama had us laughing so that it could leave us crying at the end of it. The last two episodes were intense!! I am impressed. My rating from 7 jumped to 9! I hope S2 is coming soon.
The ending of FOF was such a bittersweet mix of emotions—it had me crying nonstop, but I loved it. Knowing the trio find their way back to each other somewhere down the line made it all the more satisfying. Honestly, this is one of the best C-dramas I’ve ever seen.
I didn’t always think C-dramas could hold their own against the storytelling in K-dramas or J-dramas, but FOF completely changed my mind. The writing, the emotional depth, and the way it all came together were just amazing. Every moment kept me hooked, and I really hope more people discover this gem. It deserves to go global!
Huge respect to the actors and the director—they absolutely nailed it. Everything about this drama, from the acting to the storytelling, was so on point. Definitely one I’ll remember for a long time.
