Okay finally finished this drama. Visual and chemistry on main leads is really on point and hot. But there was…
this is why i gave up watching Wuxia shows... pisses me off every time i watched one as no one can do a romance version properly...
What i'm saying here isn't a spoiler cuz i'm not describing this story (though technically it's a plot thing that pretty much every Wuxia type story has & i've yet to find one that doesn't), if they could somehow learn to not force some sort of sacrifice all the time from either ML or FL who ever is the one with powers & take that away or severely depower them so they could make them appear more "equal" & give them their end together, then wuxia type shows could perhaps be better, cuz you don't build the whole image & hype on one or both being amazing, powerful, etc... just to end up taking everything away & making them more common then the common man just for some delusional way of doing "happy ending" for them.
So yeah as much as i wanted to watch this show, veil of shadows, pursuit of jade & few others, i can no longer bring myself in doing so as shows like "Rules The World" & "Love Me Kill Me" for example among the many completely ruin it for me as they always destroy & utterly depower the one with actual power making them pathetically weak & worthless in that sense all the while from the beginning they always hype them up as either "The Mythical One, stronger, unbeatable, etc.." & then you get an ordinary peasant in the end after they get together with their counter-part lead just for some sake of "sacrifice for the one they love" when those are pointless in the way they're done in those scenarios & their loved ones should of ended up in the way they did if not via forced scriptwriting for sake of drama and like i said sacrifice for the one they love...
Where's the romance? where's the love? oh right, ain't none, just pure stupidity in writing & endless cringe... just like those freaking rom-coms where they force comedy every 2 seconds for the sake of having comedy while it just ends up being cringe shitshow you're force to fast forward or drop the show -.-
i just binged 18 episodes & i do like it, but at the same time i'm frustrated cuz typical overused & idiotic cliches are constantly ruining the whole thing "-"
- the mother is driving me up the fucking wall for one (ML's mother that is), also what the fuck?! she forced her own child to do her bidding under the condition that if he does she'll help save his friend who ended up in a hospital from a bike crash, WHO THE FUCK TREATS HUMAN LIFE like some freaking food you trade in return for a favor (i couldn't care less what her story is, the moment this was shown it's game over, she's a fucking psycho with control issues & 0 ACTUAL care for her son...)
- ML himself drives me nuts cuz of his mother & typical chinese bullshit of 0 backbone to standup against your freak ass slave driving controlling parents (even when she's going behind his back & bullshit FL with stupid crap & threats, he's a fucking doormat that does absolutely nothing, try this shit outside asia and you'll be lucky if you see your own child ever again... we don't tolerate abusive & controlling retards in the rest of the world no matter who they are to us...)
- side FL well... let's just say that dumbass would of been beaten up if this was a real life scenario... jesus fucking christ who comes up with this level of moronic characters -.''
- FL not much to dislike about her thankfully (actress playing the role is also amazing & that little laugh she does every now and then, absolutely freaking adorable), but she has that typical cliche for older women younger man relation setup where she's far more concerned about every dumbasses opinion around her rather then her own happiness & herself in general, so she's constantly on a infinite excuse train to feed her denial from accepting the truth & her own feelings... however like i said other then that typical cliche, she's quite fantastic & their chemistry (ML & FL) is quite lovely
So all in all it's not bad, but it's sometimes hard to watch without skipping parts... the only saving grace for me to keep watching is how ML & FL are together so far even though i feel like there's too much pointless dragging, the fact the mother isn't often on screen (i'd go on a homicidal spree otherwise thanks to that annoying cunt) & for once (so far in 18 episodes at least) no psycho obsessive stalker level or worse side ml, he's annoying but seems like so far at least he properly took no for an answer (unlike the dumbass side fl...)
@Taino technically speaking, that's not a love triangle that's one being an obsessive creep &/or stalker, a love triangle would be more where a woman is being cringe level indecisive dumbass who can't choose between 2 nor/or have an actual backbone enough to decide her own feelings, ACCEPT THEM & not mind everyone elses opinions and go with the person she know is best for her, which is how you end up with a love triangle cuz FL doesn't know how to say "fuck off" to a creep & plays a pathetic meek monkey who just goes with every flow up her ass...
Pardon my language, but there's no "polite" way of saying that... it's literally the most kind of pathetic person be it male of female out there that do this.
So yeah unless there's this kind of BS then there's no love triangle & at worst like i said there would be a stalker/obsessive creep rather then love triangle.
I haven't watched the show so i can't comment which of the 2 applies to it, i'm simply commenting directly on your comment of "love triangle"
See i was hoping for happier reply... i'm just too tired to get into another so called "romance" asian show where i have to wait 90% of the entire show to get to the romantic part of ML/FL, while suffering all kinds of insanity prior for those 90%, cuz for some reason, god forbid we'd have an actual romantic relationship between ML/FL from around start of show till end... it's like i'm watching a damn superman before he was superman over & over with a new dress on... like jesus christ just give me the "superman" part & stop giving me his story before he was that...
Yeah i know that comparison was out there, but "story" wise it's actually spot on, cuz this romance types are literally that, it's all about before they actually become romantically involved & their romantic story, which is so overdone it's insane (though idk if this one has any love triangle or that nonsense that tends to absolutely ruin the whole thing, but yeah...)
'The Rational Life' is one of the better cdramas in this age-gap/noona genre.
no it's not, i hate indecisive FL who have to constantly drag on a love triangle or more through the entire drama cuz they're to freaking pathetic, you either like one or the other, if you like both decide who you like more & is right for you and go with it from start to finish, but constantly having excuses to push away the right one & keep going with the wrong one cuz "braindead reasons" aka no backbone to actually stand on her own & admit her own feeling & truth when it comes to romance, till it's too late then we need plot armor to make ML & FL end up together...
Like what the hell man, how's that "good" in any sense of the word no matter what we're specifically focusing on for the genre part...
Now okay to be fair i didnt finish watching "The Rational Life" cuz by episode 6-7 i nearly lost my mind, cuz everything was leading towards what i described above (watched another show called "Find Yourself" i believe was the title & it was pretty much 90% of what i said above from start to finish & when i saw same path unfolding with literal same signals from Rational Life i simply dropped it, i cannot for my own good health go through that insanity and pathetic display of whatever the F they deem as "romance" in shows like that...
Anyway no matter how it ends up later "The Rational Life" start is annoying as hell & even if it gets better later i doubt it's anytime soon & they'll keep dragging that crap on till that plot armor happy end needs to roll in for like last 2 or at most 3 episodes...
i bet as more episodes come out, we'll be shown he's not hungry for power at all (atm from 4 episodes i watched,…
Yeah i know exactly the scene & i did like that as well, usually ML's need to be forced to think that like or something, but this one said it himself & i approve, i truly hope he goes for it without hesitation (i think the main reason behind it later will most likely be him trying to protect his nephew from his absolutely psychopathic evil mother or whatever she is to the kid, after all she even killed what was it again her husband or brother? i kinda skim through her scenes as she drives me nuts...)
Umm, you are right with your perspective. Just one thing, SML is not only the Prime Minister of the country who…
Yeah we can only hope they drop the pointless love triangle by ep 5-6 or so, but i feel they'll just drag it out considering everything else that's already going on in the drama department of the story :/
i bet as more episodes come out, we'll be shown he's not hungry for power at all (atm from 4 episodes i watched,…
actually unless the subtitles translated it wrong, he said he wanted to ascend the crown or something like that, not specifically wanting power itself, which has a whole different meaning then straight up saying he wants power as those are very different things.
i bet as more episodes come out, we'll be shown he's not hungry for power at all (atm from 4 episodes i watched, i don't get that feeling at all, but rather something else, though i won't go spoiling in case i'm wrong, but anyway i bet it's not power itself that he wants but something that sadly can only be achieved through taking said power, as if he gets the power, he'll have no issue giving it over to someone else once he achieves his actual goal, which is usually how it goes for the setup of such characters as MC has in this show)
Umm, you are right with your perspective. Just one thing, SML is not only the Prime Minister of the country who…
Yeah i get that don't get me wrong, but unlike you i have no hopes anymore, like i said i guess i watched way too many asian dramas at this point (mainly k-dramas & c-dramas, i do want to do more j-dramas but i hardly find any i can actually enjoy sadly) that turn SML into a complete simp or just a psycho obsessive shit... :/ though for once more i'll give in to hope like you have & pray this isn't one of them, cuz like i said, so far apart from this SML bullshit, i absolutely love what i'm seeing from 1st 4 episodes, MC & FMC are just so fun to watch together, especially FMC's antics she keeps dishing out with MC are pure comedy (not those forced comedies that make you cringe, but legit comedy that makes you laugh out loud & enjoy the show)
Umm, you are right with your perspective. Just one thing, SML is not only the Prime Minister of the country who…
yeah i give you the king part, but still that's literally just forced there to make some "legitimate" reason why he's creeping around... when in reality are you gonna see a KING order a prime minister to take him somewhere rather then those who actually serve for such functions or family members... like in this show everyone is pointlessly close to the king for same reasons as prime minster just to have somewhat legitimate reasons for being somewhere they shouldn't.
As far as prime minister & MC being friends, i'm somewhat doubting they're real friends as far as we've seen so far, i'd say MC has about maybe 1 actual friend & that's the person who serves as his secretary & is closest to him, everyone else he at best just acts close/friendly too.
Now also to drop another cliche connected to main side character clishe of creeping around FMC always, is the fact they for their ENTIRE LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! do absolutely nothing, they don't confess, they don't actually act like someone who has feelings or more for FMC & so on, which is usually for majority of dramas anywhere between 10 to 20 years (depends on each story's setup), but the moment the drama start and MC enters the pictures the MSC goes full creep, stalker, pervert or down right rapist mode while all the while before for decade+ they're barely even considered actual friends with FMC, at best they're close to her among other ppl (very few dramas actually make them out as best friends or something, but all above still 100% applies as none of that ever changes)...
So now i'm supposed to completely glaze over that biggest bullshit ever & somehow pretend that simply not the side character nor FMC ever had time to date anyone that would somewhat force either to confess & so on, yet this can only happen when MC appears? ah cmon... i know this is a drama & an asian one at that, but ffs.... stop treating your viewers as fucking toddlers without brain, this isn't a teletubi shitshow where 5 year olds watch & have no clue what's actually going on, you know? :/
p.s you better expect the typical k-drama cliche of FMC leaving MC for some idiotic bullshit one sidedly pretending she's protecting him or whatever & also the absolutely pointless time skip until they finally get together at the end for a "happy end", which in total we'll get about 1 episode or a tiny bit more of actual real romance between MC & FMC in the entire shows runtime & that's so scattered about through all episodes that it feels nothing but a bullshit show about a creep side character who doesn't know how to fuck off & let everyone properly enjoy the show for what it's supposed ot be & the very reason why 90%+ viewers are here to begin with, the actual romance of MC & FMC and their antics that makes us smile...
Idk maybe i just watched so many asian dramas at this point i can see the whole fucking plot from before i watch the show that it actually ruins even what's good, cuz like i said they run on 1 script & that's repeating the same bullshit plot & cliches over & over without failure... among total dramas i watches so far i dare say maybe 2-3% were legit romance types as they claim to be without needless bullshit that other dramas force in that don't need to be there no matter what.
it's fair you feel how you feel, but to call her face generic face & not beautiful enough to mesmerize someone is going a bit over the line, you're also not taking this from a realistic (being in that situation) type of perspective, watching this from a screen as a tv show is completely different, then how you'd feel if you were in that situation with her...
imagine if donkeys could make 1 drama no matter if it's purely romance, comedy or romantic drama, but just imagine if they could make it without main side character always being obsessive stalking freak over FMC in 99% of k-dramas, c-drama & basically all around asian dramas?... oh god forbid something truly decent & proper would be done, nope always same old bs with disgusting stalking obsessive freak of a side character who doesn't know how to mind his own business & a pushover MC that never puts such a disgusting jackass in his place, ofc let's not forget a clueless FMC that doesn't seem to ever know how basic romance works, relationships (fake or real) & how to draw a proper line between other males in her life always acting as if she's dating the entire planet....
don't get me wrong i'm quite enjoying this Show as i tend to many Asian Dramas, MC & FMC also are quite fantastic together, but none of that is good enough when its completely ruined by the bs i mentioned above EVERY SINGLE TIME...
I mean let's put something many dramas do into the light as a point on this, since when do other ppl who are not strictly invited or permitted to be at someone's house constantly showing up & acting as if it's their house for example... like this donkey he's FMC's friend & yet he just walks into MC's PRIVATE residence & acts as if anyone on any level gave him permission to be there acting as if he's at hope & suddenly has absolutely no work to do, yet all other times he's nothing but a whining child about how much work he has all the time... & to top it all off this isn't even a normal persons private residence which isn't okay either!, but this is a Grand Princes to the royal crown private residence & he's nothing more then a mere prime minister & he has the audacity to act like that? in actual reality if someone would do shit like this, they'd be lucky if they walked away without being beheaded in such a environment as royalty the way it's presented in this story's setup...
Like i mean fiction is one thing, but there's also taking fiction too far... & there's also abusing one of the most annoying cliches that i guarantee you with my life on the line more then 80% of asian drama viewers hate... with a story like this, you have basically infinite drama both in politics, family infighting on both sides, from common betrayals to royal ones, typical psychos & so on... so throwing in the most abused & annoying cliche i mention before is beyond pointless ¬ needed in this story as it doesn't add to actual drama anymore & just serves as pure "piss off the viewers" aspect -.-
Fun fact, this is 90% of K-Dramas... absolutely ruined due to secondary or even further down the line morons who have no business being anywhere & yet they're everywhere where main leads are CONSTANTLY & often end up with more screentime then actual leads of the show ruining everything there is to ruin -.-
p.s thanks for writing this, it saves my sanity & skips me from being enraged from another bs K-Drama that doesn't know how to focus on what needs focus...
it's hilarious you keep going on about how he's "dominant" when he's literally a worthless doormat....…
i would be harsh if he wasn't, but he is :/ i dropped it just today at episode 32 or 33, cuz i couldn't take it anymore, this is about where he really shows how much of a "worthless doormat" he is... if you watched to this point you'll quickly understand which topic within the show i'm talking about that really shows this point, he was pretty good at start though, too bad like with almost every MC they're amazing at start but fairly quickly (or the moment FMC gets involved in his life) they nerf the MC into oblivion and make them pretty much worthless...
I was actually debating whether to leave a review here because I’m still a new Chen Xingxu fan, and My Boss…
it's hilarious you keep going on about how he's "dominant" when he's literally a worthless doormat.... oh yeah he likes to ACT tough, but the moment he's supposed to be ACTUALLY dominant & do the right thing, he just let's everyone walk all over him & let's everyone go, punishing no one that more then just deserves punishment... he's basically the same as all of those so called "heroes" who'll let a psychopathic murdering beyond corrupt & irredeemable villain murder the entire before they'll kill him when they could of killed him from the start & saved literally billions of lives...
Literally the same type of character personality, act all tough & badass, capable & so on, but when it actually counts, they're more worthless then a rock on the side of road -.-
Yet another asian drama with typical spineless MC that bends over & let's everyone walk all over him....
The MC's bestfriend is basically "Sakura" from Naruto but male, beyond reality levels of annoying... MC just let's him be a sh1thead 24/7 and never does anything about it, instead of smacking him back into reality considering this donkey can't do a single thing right & all he does is abuses his power for his personal gains & acts like a typical male hoe...
FMC is just a spineless doormat with 24/7 depressoexpresso self pity party & tantrum throwing while running away at the slight hint of literally anything not going her way like a fukken toddler on a sugar rush...
the potential was enormous, but all of it wasted with worthless characters...
The ML coming home was not done out of filial duty. He was tasked with getting his grandmother's hotel. That was…
he was how they shaped him, he treated others how they treated him, while the worthless grandma had ppl who cared for her, he had no one & you expect me to blame the guy who's been fucked over more then an orgy & somehow feel compassion for a cunt who abandons her own family & then blames THEM for how they are & their actions which comparing to hers aren't even bad? GTFO...
What i'm saying here isn't a spoiler cuz i'm not describing this story (though technically it's a plot thing that pretty much every Wuxia type story has & i've yet to find one that doesn't), if they could somehow learn to not force some sort of sacrifice all the time from either ML or FL who ever is the one with powers & take that away or severely depower them so they could make them appear more "equal" & give them their end together, then wuxia type shows could perhaps be better, cuz you don't build the whole image & hype on one or both being amazing, powerful, etc... just to end up taking everything away & making them more common then the common man just for some delusional way of doing "happy ending" for them.

Where's the romance? where's the love? oh right, ain't none, just pure stupidity in writing & endless cringe... just like those freaking rom-coms where they force comedy every 2 seconds for the sake of having comedy while it just ends up being cringe shitshow you're force to fast forward or drop the show -.-
