Wait, what??!! Yu Shisan and Yang Ying from A Journey to Love are the main couple here???? SIGN ME UP yesterday!!

I became a lifelong fan of He Lan Dou after her performance in the dual role as Princess Yang Ying. Sign me up for everything she's in!! I've only seen Zhou Yi Ran in The Legend of Zhouhua and even in the minor role, he was noticeable. I know his star is rising and I've go lots of dramas to catch up on....

Zhou Yi Ran + He Lan Dou as the CP?? OMG!!! The potential for greatness is overwhelming!!! Looking forward to this! Any trailers or teasers yet?

He Lan Dou!!! I cannot wait to watch this after loving her as Yang Ying in A Journey to Love. STELLAR performance there. I'm so glad this is short enough to enjoy during a busy period of work.

Jewels and @Mel - I have you both to blame...and to lean on...for feeding my thirst and hunger for short(er) vertical dramas as life has been too busy to commit to regular length 40-episode treasures. Thank you for always providing links with subs. :-)

YES!! Park Hyung Sik was wonderful in that role.

I loved Zhang Linghe's first ML role - Pei Zhao in Maiden Holmes. Wonderful green flag character.

Thanks for the AWESOME list. This now makes sense. I've seen # 1 and # 6 (yes, I am a fan of Liu Xiao Xu) and I can now see the likeness between the shows.

In addition to the director, I want to see more work from this Scriptwriter!! So refreshing to have no toxic male leads, a female lead who is shy who grows into her own confidence, thanks to the ML who gently supports her. LOVE this!!

100% agree! 5 BIG Yes's to what you said. and me too, I got transported back to my teens where I dreamed of having such an experience. :-)

Episode 33 was a magnificent one for Yang Ying!!

A belated thanks for your help, @Zii3! Sometimes, I try to search for the series by copy-pasting Chinese name I find in the "Native Title" or "Also Known As" section in the information section of each listing.

I don't understand. I had seen a movie called Love at 30,000 Feet recently and it was about a relationship between Meng Liyue and Li Fuzheng, the former being an air traffic controller and the latter being a pilot. How is this MDL listing completely different?? Why don't they call this listing "Captain of Her Own Sky"? Thanks for helping me understand.

Oh my goodness, the ML and FL are positively STUNNING! Both of them, gorgeous beyond words. I looked forever for the name of the show to find the names of the cast and sifted through hundreds of YT comments and now I am so pleased I know the names - Liu Xi Yu and Zou Sheng Wen

I'm on Ep. 18 and TBH, I don't see the negativity in some of the reviews. On the other hand, it had so many unexpected gifts from strong, progressive representations of women to simple yet big-hearted men who are open to learning what they do not know, all the while knowing instinctively (I wish) to cherish and protect their beloved ladies. At the same time, it did not gloss over some of the very real ugliness we have all experienced in life, from poverty to abuse to sheer evil stuff. It's a solid 8/ 10 for me at the moment, although I wish there were a bit more romance.

I loved seeing the two leads in roles different than their usual...and gosh, what's Chen Fang Tong doing without her best partner-in-crime, the very and always hot Dai Gao Zheng???? Horrors but truly Luo Zhen was wonderful as a sweet, honourable Green flag ML. I have a feeling, like others who have commented, that I will return to rewatch this in the future. It's a lovely slice-of-life series for me. I'm glad I stumbled onto this gem.

I've seen him in a full length drama (24 episodes) where he is SML, playing the best friend of the FL. Very cool to see him play such a different role. I liked seeing the range of his potential. I don't want him to be typecasted just for his abs or his kissing prowess (not that I do not admire both of those). I'd love to see his range of acting coz he's pretty good in these mini dramas. Kinda annoying though the ML roles in these short dramas are often so toxic...why do writers keep writing MLs who shove FLs and yet profess to care for the women... Oh, the SML role I was talking about was in Love In Time (2022).

LOL!!! I had the same question of Zhang Linghe these last 2 years... Both are so fine though, therefore, I'm not complaining that hard. Actually, I'm not complaining at all...except for how my work day gets in the way of keeping up to date with their dramas. Wish someone would do the adult-ing for me. ROFL!

I just started coz of a YouTube clip but yeesh… 54 episodes? I don't know if I'll make it… what will make this worth it?

YES, and her subtitles are AWESOME!

Ahhh, Dai… 🔥 I understand completely. 😉 Saw him in a short but full length drama (Love in Time 2022) and it was so refreshing to see his talent a different way. 🙂 Any input on Yan Zi Xian?
