It only just wrapped - time needed for production, editing, CGI, censorship review, more editing, get approval to air etc....costume drama always takes ages....hopefully will be worth the time spent waiting.
Calm down my friend. There are many of us like you who like ALP and were a bit disspointed in TLI, but all of…
Agree that's reasonable. I guess we just have to wait and see. I don't plan to watch the surrounding stories so I will require complete information anyhow or nothing will make sense.
Here's a good guide to understanding why Shu Yi is Shi Yan's match: https://mydramalist.com/discussions/cuo-liao/121097-choosing-a-partner-like-a-venture-capitalist-with-shi-yan-long-analysisTips…
I think the lack of comms was also layered with miscommunication (e.g. the niece mistaking Shuyi chasing a different uncle, everyone thinking her boyfriend is a much older married man etc) which added to the chaos. My head did shout Nooooo a few times lol.
The fact that I was just on my way to comment this.. not only the costume but the male lead character also gives…
Lol yes I had commented earlier than ARP looks like a taller version of WHD. I would LOVE BL and WHD in a costume drama but doubt it will ever happen - so this pairing has eased it for me 😁

I hope there are more who have watched ALP like you but recognise this story is not the same and will be a completely different standalone.
I'm geting a bit fed up how people keep expecting the exactly the same characters from ALP despite a tenuous link. Honestly wish that link would disappear - but some fans won't let it go and ready to rate it down if it's not what they expect - and that's not even with the haters/antifans' contributions.
I enjoyed it bar the secondary couple (it was a horrible get together forged on lies!) If anyone finds a way to put the episodes together and cut their scenes out, it's a sweet drama. Pretty sure they had more screen time than the main couple too.
Overall funny and sweet! Loved the clues (those who watched it know what I mean) about the door passcode.
I can see why some people thought this was draggy in the middle. Things really do move along fairly quickly, but…
Thanks for this I wasn't sure how it ended but saw a few comedic bits which I liked...and also Bailu had recommended it at the time of airing but it got so much stick back when airing I left it and forgot about it! I will stick it on my list. Thank you!

but Yan Lin seems so bad in the past life. It looks like he forced himself on FL when she was empress, but afterwards…
It's definitely not the best drama out there but as a fluffy watch it will do for me. I liked all the fake irony thrown in as a dig at Jun, re kpop idols like JJJ's idol posters are all of Jun, and the SML is training to be one.
Nope no dubbing, original voices here. What a coincidence, I am watching EF now, also a Jun fan & yes it was a…
Yeah I feel a twinge of sadness won't get to see the original either with his voice. Am at Ep 20 and totally loving it, they did the childhood friend to lovers story really well I thought, no cringe.
If you enjoyed EF please watch When I Fly Towards You - with the same FL - that people have very highly recc as it's a similar tone. I plan to see that next but maybe after a historical drama.

Aye this drama is a bit of an odd one as Dylan the ML has a strong accent and people are actually used to him being dubbed and can't get over him speaking in his real voice which is just....bizarre!
Anyway further below, I have posted a spoiler free outline of what to expect of this drama as people had inflated expectations (of what exactly I do not know!) of this drama and have blasted director/screenwriter/actors etc. I say just watch and enjoy it for what it is!

Liked their chemistry, I'm at Ep 20.
