It may seems overreacting and exaggerating but the ML background story was one of the worst, useless, pathetic guilt trip that writer to paint. Seriously when ML past was revealed, I loathed the writer, and the whole curiosity and thrill that they built over the episodes and his behavior, it was unrealistic in every way.
Such empathy can only exist in novels, thats why it felt, cliched, cheesy, thats the only thing I wish I could change, the rest of the drama was pretty nice.
I had feared already for what happened to GXF. Ma Li will be her destination, it is unfortunate that it will take her too much time to realise he is the one. Poor Ma Li, sometimes I feel, he truly need someone who can love the way he loved GXF.
I don't know may be the past 3 episodes are filler, as there is significant absence of both male leas.
To ZJ,
"ZJ, why you are an uncontrolled beast? Can't you control and keep yourself grounded forever for the love you want? It seems like you are trying to be with her, trying to walk with her, but in the end you will fly away, as I know you are not someone who can be constrained. But in doing so you will break her heart, what have you been doing all this time? toying with her....her feelings and emotions? So what if your love is true, if it doesn't rest then it is not love, if it makes you restlessness, anxious, then you are not a right person for her. You appear for a sec, create stir in an ocean and then disappear. Isn't it better for you to fly someplace where you find the likes of you? What do you actually need? what do you lack? attention? family? friend? you can have all this, as you know how to seek for help, but if you show ambiguity in every action of yours, then people will take you for granted, just as you have taken LQQ for granted. Words alone aren't enough, anyone can have passionate childhood love, but there are numbered people who can get to have their childhood love fulfilled. You have a chance now, so what stopping you? Is it because you think you are wild? you will ruin her? Well if that was the case, then you shouldn't have appeared. You should have just let her pass away as memory in time that you once cherished. If you have too many issue to solve, just don't add other by listening to your heart, because you will not be able to solve any, if you continue like this."
It genuinely deserves higher rating, but I think this is usual MDL homophobic agenda that won't let any BL or LGBTQ+ theme content rated higher than 8.5. There are so many good such series that can easily get a rating higher than this figure. But it is clear they won't let it go further.
I can't blame Yai for not protecting Jom or standing by his side unconditionally and openly, and the future also seems feeble for them. It was an era where such things, let alone being left unspoken, were impossible for anyone to say or expect to be understood.
So no matter how mad I am at Yai for making Jom feel insecure, angry, anxious, vulnerable and dragging him to this mess without thinking, when he was weak himself or stand for anything he don't believe in, it is a loss and pain for Jom. He suffered in present, and now he is going to suffer in past even more.
I just have to go with it without complaining, because no matter how much I write or vent my outburst, it was time in history that could not be changed, so you don't expect that 1920s would understand gays, lesbians and all sort of this stuff.
It is even clear from the future, that their story sank with their fate. So, Jom will return to future, and will find Yai reincarnated and then they will reunite. It is the best possible guess, if it has a happy ending, which I read, it is, as novel readers say it is.
Let's see how it goes, as their suffering is set to begin from next week onward.
among other KBL, this was a let down, I don't know but some scenes were sudden, there wasn't lot of main lead presence, also, the conflict seems shallow, and instead of guilty part getting angry innocent man had to apologize. I feel it was bit unfair. He claims to love him, but has relationship with someone for 3 years, I know it is not wrong, but still I didn't liked it. Anyway it was cute, I wished it had more leads scenes.
Thats why I feel anger towards ZJ, he is ambiguous as hell. He is smart enough to know who like who and who is who. That sister of his like him, and she is keeping him by her side, while ZJ likes FL but won't say. This push and pull of friends is the most frustrating things there is...I know they can't be lovey dovey in high school settings, but ZJ is not it. LQQ gonna get hurt, but at least she is not like that fools Xioa Fei, who has turned a blind eye on that singer of hers. ZJ, makes me angry, anxious and wants me to yell at him. Like what does he want, just damn say those words "wo xihuan ni"...
The ML mother is bitch that needs medical treatment, she tried to kill FL and gave warning? What the absolute fuck? She needs to tell him about this, this is just dog shit stuff, it is suffocating to see such dumb moves and meaningless sacrifices.
I am just afraid what pandora will open when she will know the true reason of her parents death, I am sure her parents death has some connection to Fu family, they simply weren't killed by those guerrilla forces.
Xiao Bo is really admirable, nothing is going his way but he doesn't give up. At the end I was like, yes! serves…
And it is all because of LQQ, because she doesn't give up on him. Every time he hit rock bottom hard, she pull him out from the bottom of every misery.
Such empathy can only exist in novels, thats why it felt, cliched, cheesy, thats the only thing I wish I could change, the rest of the drama was pretty nice.
ps. the security company person is not a killer. He is taking a blame or story is something else.

the oil scene was so intense so arousing and so anxious that I held my breath and my heart was pounding with the music that was reaching to climx.
excellent production, writing, direction, acting, music and technical aspects of series.
each series from this series are precious.
I am just afraid what pandora will open when she will know the true reason of her parents death, I am sure her parents death has some connection to Fu family, they simply weren't killed by those guerrilla forces.
