I’m only through episode 31 and this should have been no more than 24 episodes. I’m sick of the waffling about feelings between the lead characters. I think this is rated appropriately.

I agree and I’m using FF for all of his scenes. He and his parents add nothing to the story.

Honestly, this could have been done well in 12 to 16 episodes. Now they’re just dragging it out to 20. Finished 15 and have decided to use FF for the rest just to finish it. At this point it’s only 8 stars in my mind but could end up as 7.5 if I finish. I will usually give any Cdrama a chance with over 7 stars.

Yes! I was surprised at how good it is. The rating here is too low.

I started skipping his scenes too. Way too annoying! He’s as bad as his ex.

The last 50 episode drama I watched was The Real Has Come, and I was disappointed in it. This is giving the same vibes as that after one episode. Going to watch it slowly and we’ll see if I finish it. I really like the ML and FL.

Not too bad for a Jdrama. Full of tropes but at least they weren’t dragged out. Hated both mothers but really liked how the leads didn’t let others get in the way of their relationship. Best part was last episode and how it gave a good message and tied it all together. Sorry, not going to add any spoilers.

She was a terrible person in the webtoon also.

Do you even know any bipolars? She is not exhibiting any bipolar symptoms but she has been diagnosed with depression! I know what it’s like because I lived with a bipolar man for over 25 years and I also have a few friends that are also bipolar. She is no where near manic from what I can see on the other side of the world.

Thank you for at least wishing her to stay calm and heal. This is what she is trying to accomplish by deleting the Weibo account.

She didn’t “sleep” with him. That’s where I draw the line.

It’s back on Viki now in the US.

It was watchable but it still took me almost a month to get through it. Esther Yu was good but almost saccharine at times. Her judgemental parents were ridiculous, especially the mother who acted like she never had any hardships or made any mistakes in her life. Really enjoyed Lin Yi in this role and his story. Probably won’t watch it again, although I’ve seen a lot worse.

I finished this a while ago but it did really get a lot better after episode four or I wouldn’t have given it 8.5 stars. I guess you just have to be in the mood for these tropes or like Miles Wei as much as I do. :)

Where did you watch this. I didn’t have a problem on Viki.

While I didn’t care for the mother, I thoroughly enjoyed this drama. Usually Jdramas are hit and miss with me. This is one of the better ones and I think it’s underrated for its genre.

I started this three times before I could get into it. The first four or five episodes were hard to get through and then it picked up from there. I kept trying because I really like Miles Wei.

While I loved the tv series Kotoko, this actress managed to capture the essence of the character without being as over the top like in the manga. It’s just a different interpretation of the same character. This Naoki is also good as that character is supposed to be unemotional. Nice, short version of the original series.

I just started it for the seventh time tonight. It’s one of my guilty pleasures.

Thank you! I had set this aside at episode 12 and came here wondering if I should pick it up again. Will continue!

It was on YOUKU but it’s not there anymore. 🤨
