ep 24 - QiQi's friends invite them put to eat but then the other guys said Song will pay the bill... then Sing agreed and said since this is their first time meeting, he should pay the bill. Is this the norm in China? I've never heard of such a thing and who says the other guy will pay the bill if he invited them out? Admittedly, the other guy was a d!ck anyway so maybe it was him...
ep 23 - When Qi Qi's mother spoke of the law and said that adult children have a lifetime obligation to support their parents, is that true in China? That it's actually codified in law?!
Ok so i'm justing stating this based on what we have seen so far and there could more to it, but it seems like…
Yes, there wasn't. It was just her imagination and he cleared it up too. He may not have liked her but in the end he said he led her on just for the movie.
"Because I'm not someone who exists to act the way you want or predict... that's something you should expect from someone who loves you." Now THAT, is how you tell someone to f off with class & sophistication ๐๐ to all MLs, this is how you lay boundaries! ๐ his delivery was flawless ๐
I have to say the mother is the most fascinating character to me in this series. Sheโs a character that frustrates…
I concur... and many other mum characters in other dramas have been the same but somehow this actor has balanced being overbearing and demonstrating the root of her behaviour, I dont think I've seen it in other shows. That's probably more to do with the dialogue and the storyline as we've been shown in depth what she's come up against so far which leads to more understanding towards her behaviour.
can somone explain to me the mlโs father story bout the medical stuff i lwk got confused within these recent…
he performed an unsuccessful second surgery on a patient whose family begged for it. After patient died, the family sued the ML's father... I don't think they get too detailed as to whether it was medical negligence or foul play etc
probably the impact of low socioeconomic housing... that kind of environment breeds a cycle of disadvantage which…
there seems to be at least 50 other apts in that block... we're only shown 3 or so famikies, doesn't seem fair to label all of them are like that when we're shown only a handful of families
It's been a while since I've felt like this about a drama... no f/fwding, hanging on every word from each character, shocked when each ep ends because helloooo it's only been 10 mins, right?! and then can't wait for the nxt episode!!! Everything so far has been well executed by the whole crew, congrats!
There are so many people defending the mother in the comments that I am not even able to say anything against…
Her trauma would not allow her to be soft with the FL as she's already lost one daughter and she probably thought she wasn't hard enough on her. For someone who is frustrating to watch from afar and who has experienced a lot of trauma, she actually communicates her fears and her expectations quite well. She tells the FL exactly what she expects from her and the reason why she is overprotective. Usually, you'd expect a mother like that to shut down the FL totally and not even explain herself. The writing and dialogue are very raw and the actors are doing an exceptional job conveying all the feels.
In this ep I was more frustrated with the FL for holding everything in. She's come all this way only to not express all she's feeling or scream her frustrations away.

I don't think anyone can judge the mother unless you've lost a daughter, and esp the way they lost her and all the events leading up to it. Losing your offspring is a different kind of pain and you don't really know how people will be after that. The mother frustrates me to no end but considering the era, what she's been through, the cultural background, the upbringing, and her family environment, I can sorta understand why she's like that. The actress is doing a phenomenal job.
