Poor Li CongXin - so kind and sincere. Not only does he not get his love but he also gets schemed into a trap.

The father is a psychopath 😡I just want to wait for the express to drop so I can see him and the grandmother get what they deserve!

You’re right! 😁 everyone’s got blood on their hands!

So true - the leads truly have only each other

This is a stressful watch - so much scheming and the leads having to watch their backs all the time…but it is so good!!!

Just finished eps 20 and 21 - and my heart is bursting with romance. Beautiful couple and MZY looked so beautiful! And the ML is such a sneaky green flag 😁

This was a fun watch, but it did get a bit draggy after a while. At some point, it became tiring watching the writers constantly try to show how clever the ML was, with one plot twist after another where he manages to outmaneuver everyone by thinking several steps ahead.

Overall, though, I enjoyed it. The face card was definitely a plus—and thankfully, they can act too!

Fun way to end the show and I love the way they resolved the conflicts. Bo Na is lucky to have found someone like Tae Song and he's lucky to have a great friend like Dong Jin.

I just finished it and like you said, there was a nice turnaround story. I just wished that the MIL actually did get over the general prejudice against orphans but even though it was not addressed directly, I still love that she became the FL's biggest fan :D

I agree with the others - this show is so underrated. The actors are doing an excellent job and the story is engaging and interesting. I am just finishing up ep 9 and I cannot believe the mother-in-law. It's so hurtful for Bo Na, and it's sad that prejudice against orphans and adopted children in South Korea is deeply rooted.

Excellent watch! I almost want it to have more episodes so I can see Film and Bua deliver more angst. They both are so good with emotional scenes, and talented actors overall. The supporting cast did a great job too, especially the actors playing the younger versions of Yai and Ran. As expected we have the evil shrieky mother and clingy nang rai but given the short length of the drama, they weren't too irritating. Overall I would recommend.

Thanks! I am grateful that the streaming platforms are airing more Japanese dramas especially the older ones. There's definitely a different flavor to the Japanese ones which I enjoy :)

Finally finished this one after getting distracted by a few new shows along the way. I liked it a lot, although it did drag a bit in the middle.

It has so many of the elements I love in a good Xianxia drama—the unspoken words conveyed through actions, the angst, the sacrifices, the unwavering commitment and devotion, the fierce and sometimes blind love, and so much more.

Ni Ni was amazing, and Chang Chen was perfect as the GoW. The supporting cast was also excellent and added so much to the story. And the OST definitely deserves a mention—it complemented the drama beautifully.

Overall, a satisfying watch in the end.

Thanks! I figured I should have watched the series to at least understand the characters and the dynamics between them. Luckily Netflix just added all 7 seasons so I can catch up and revise my rating later.

It is pretty ridiculous but I gave it a decent rating because I liked the actors.

Maybe it's just me but I like this pairing - Film and Bua have always been great at emoting quiet intensity and now that there are more scenes of them together in eps 5 and 6, I am enjoying them more. I don't think this show is only 10 episodes. Seems like there's more to unpack.

Love the leads’ story—Gang Uk simply showing up, using his skills, supporting and understanding Yeori, and being exactly what she needed without trying to make himself the hero. Unlike the creepy SML, who literally created the crisis just so he could swoop in and save the day.
Watched the preview for ep 10 and I understand why people are irritated but I still have faith in this show. Hopefully the final two episodes will not fail us.

Guess I was in the mood for a simple but action-packed movie because I really enjoyed this one. Like others have mentioned, there wasn’t much in the way of character or plot development, but the cinematography, directing, music, and acting were all great. The fight scenes were especially well done, and JOJ really made me believe that a petite girl like her could take down all those men. KJH was sexy-creepy in the best way, and as brief as his scenes were, KMY pulled off that villain vibe so well.

Perhaps I needed to watch the series first but I didn't really get this show. It was a little bizarre for me but I did like the female doctor. She was brilliant, quirky and outrageous in a good way. Would I recommend it? Not immediately so I am going to take the easy way out and say, try it and see if you like it :D

It's ok - not sizzling but not bland either.
