I hope for the best but so many dramas have good early episodes only to fail in the middle or the end, so it’s always best to be cautious.

Some more backstory will be told, but quality wise 3-6 are about the same as 1-2.

Haha… The Immortal Ascension has 8.3 so it means it’s 9.3 drama then 😁

Thank you so much 😊

It’s 3 per day, but I agree — lot’s of dramas 😳

Wouldn’t letting them “escape” be considered a huge error and would inevitably cause yamen to suffer punishment even if a local lord/magistrate was covering for them?

Okay, to make sure I understand everything correctly, are you saying that even possessing an imperial token, he can’t ask a local yamen to hold these thugs? Yamen will go, “Sorry, they are clearly law-abiding citizens. They just slipped on a tangerine peel and their swords accidentally tried to pierce you”?

Once I started to view ZZ as Batman, it made more sense to me, but I’m still struggling to understand why ZZ doesn’t capture & imprison thugs that constantly try to kill him. They try to kill him, an official who is performing his duties, so should they be placed in jail instead of being allowed to escape only to return later? Am I missing some important context? 🤔

Hopefully it will be released early in 2027 while there’s still snow ❄️ It has similar winter vibes as Amidst a Snowstorm of Love (not surprising because director is the same).

I think it was just the sheer quantity of making out in WDBTD that was very unusual. They obviously got away in a large part because of “dual cultivation” aspect but even other fantasy dramas like Love in the Clouds had to cut some scenes apparently. So major props to the director and cinematographer for coming up with smart ways to get around censorship (as a side note, the leads from WDBTD are shooting a movie together, so their CP shippers are going to be happy 😆)

Yay, this drama is finally on Viki!

It’s not even worth it to argue with people like that — much easier to block them and move on. Before this, the last person I blocked said that IU can’t act and can’t sing which is even crazier than complaining about Yang Zi’s acting 🙄

Best Choice Ever is generally pretty good and more like a typical romcom, but you do have to fast-forward through some scenes when her mom does annoying/hurtful stuff like trying to get her back with her to rich ex and the like.

To this day I don’t understand how creators of “When Destiny Brings the Demon” got away with the insane amount of intimate content. They probably got the censors drunk and then managed to sneak under the radar of all the haters who were too busy trying to get “Moonlit Reunion” cancelled (both dramas are from the same author and came out at the same time on different platforms, but Moonlit Reuinion is a more popular book and had more popular stars, so lots more anti-fans too).

Fair point. I think you will really enjoy Love Scout. It’s a much better drama overall and it has a more of a case-of-the-week format (they are HR recruiters, so it’s about finding a job for someone or finding a good candidate… it’s more exciting than it sounds, lol) with an overall plot of a battle between the good company (our leads) and bad company/bad people. If you do start watching it, give it 2-3 episodes at least. First episode is more of a background and setting things up before it really hits its stride. There is romance, but it’s more grounded & more mature/realistic than in this drama.

Uhh… most C-dramas are 30+ episodes long and have almost no intimacy, but I do agree that more adult-oriented/serious dramas are oftentimes underrated here on MDL.

I agree. Screenwriters are doing a typical K-drama mistake of trying to make things dramatic just for not good reason 🙄

They are continuing to show that ML is whipped by women — his sisters, his ex (2FL), and now FL 😁

This is a romcom, so romance is in here :) There will be more cases after ep. 4, but also it’s about leads trying to get together and 2FL and — especially — 2ML will play their part in it.

Definitely not making him out to be a sympathetic character
