I think this was based over a decade ago. china was much more unsafe and corrupt during the early 2000s. imo long ballad is probably the easiest dilraba drama to get into for a average cdrama viewer

Seems the pacing and plot after ep 22/23 is kinda meh. There was like hints of antagonist plots but they went away quick.

I don't think its really propaganda its just these genre of Romance that takes part in some hot chinese industry or professional field. If they going to use it as a plot device, they obviously need to make it positive and not some degenerate thing to get pass the censors. I learn to FF most of it though since its all irrelevant to me.

them playing with the fire extinguisher was a national scandal

he started on 8 imo

zx wasn't even a villain lol he is just some young former poor Chinese guy living life for the first time

IRL, that guy is kinda red flag too. He stalked her for 2 years and moved to be her boss. As the viewer, we can't be sure if his plot was originally for revenge until the misunderstanding was reveal (since its a "nice" cdrama, we know it wont be that). It could of been since he had immense guilt and took off. LOL

The only snake is Rong. The other got caught in the drama crossfire and Silang's issue with XG was resolved.

SML was basically waiting for everything to line up before chasing after the FL. Unfortunately they both went on different timeline. Likely if they dated, they wouldn't work out anyways. I don't really agree with all the hate he gets. Both SML and FL had some normal but unhealthy "obsession" or "crush" with the other. SML got fed outdated information and decided to try his last effort in ep 30. So far , its pretty tame compare to like kdrama love triangles lol. Now if he becomes a villian....

How long has it been from the new year meeting to today's episode in the show?

it was probably just puppy love on the FL part

i just skip the kiss scenese. doesnt do anything for me and i don't remember that many dramatic kiss scenes in the drama i normally watch

she already know he is the grandson from ep11?

um sml wasn't even that evil though? just a dumb 22 year old

it's because of all the "rich CEO marries poor foodstand girl in contract marriage but find true love" that is pumped out by the 100s monthly

I read the regulation was for the addictive short dramas.

we see him knocking on the door and the next scene she is in the dorm. how much time was btwn that

for something different, reset is really good

it started to get slow for me after the confession too. I guess I prefer the chase 🤔

kinda confused with the timeline. did fl meet sml because he was the cousins tutor or because dorm mates childhood friend? at what age did the crush start?
