😘 (need to go, long drive ahead in the deep space.... Until next!)

Yes you are right : ,let's not deter those who might like it despite its flaws. It is not a rotten one. (signing out now, have to go...)

Mmmmm 😎 "I am an ancient alien from deep space observing the Earthlings"

😘

okay, will be interested in yr list of extraordinary c-dramas if you have time to grace us with it.

oooh, that bad! 😂🤣🤣🤣 (actually feeling with you, since I'm still scouring these comments 😁)

To me it felt simplistic. airbrushed, and sometimes sanctimonious like a heavy handed moral lesson. Not that realistic. The beginning was farfetched as "overprotected but rebellious teen behavior" goes and there were several things that made me cringe, such as the way they handled the online slander bit. But the song is good and I won't imply Xiao Zhan and Yang Zi are not competent actors.
I just never was carried away as much as many by that one, and on retrospect, it does not make it into my favorite drama list.

I agree about the "cliché of proposal".
That and full wedding ceremonies are things I don't linger on, since I don't need models any longer. Never did, in fact. I know many styles, having been invited to weddings for both American, European, Indian, Syrian, African, Chinese and other Asian friends, either same culture or mix (latest was a Palestinian Syrian mathematician who wedded an Ukrainian Russian Orthodox teacher of English, lol - I kid you not. , ). So the rites and ways to formalize are not a novelty to watch on screen for me.

You have not posted a review to make clear your judgement.
Myself, I am not shy to put up a 10/10. May assemble my views for a review later, if time allows (will be very busy alas from tomorrow until.... Real life dramas to take care of too, my end. Nothing as enjoyable as watching L&P.).

Now this looks like it's far in the future. How the world turns in between is unpredictable, but I doubt it would be the same. Trying to imagine it in light of the Back To The Future movies, 😂

He had described Princess as someone with a tender and fragile heart, so was unsure at the time how she could handle being thrown in the limelight as the lover of a convict. For many unpredictable years.
Pushing her away was surely a heartache, but logical, in the hope she was not too rooted in him and could grow again as a transplant abroad, together with not stopping her professional development. He could get back on his feet because he was so bright (even made a prison management program while he was behind bars, lol!) but she needed a framework to study and get certificates and experience. Causing her to stay would have meant stopping that, so he chose the painful way for her best interests.
Getting back together before he had completed his rebound was also a risk for her, in addition to his jealousy when he was told she was coming back to get married to Tian (but meeting and talking to the painter in hospital dispelled those suspicions).

yes that was quite an Art of War swift and efficient move, come to think about her boldness there.

I hope I can, and be thrilled by their future work too ! 🥰

That's a lovely thread.

while waiting

She said she WAS Zhu Yun, and in a different interview, CFY said the same.
Both really got into character.
Or acknowledge they really have similar ways of thinking and reacting irl ?
But according to both and their companies, it did not go as far as falling in love when working together: they just became very good friends. They did do an excellent job.
It would be a good thing if they are driven, persistent, and goal oriented too, able to dismiss threats and slander, in real life, because they have to take in stride jealousy and bias from a fringe of haters too (those who start without even having watched their work, branding the stories this or that, and Li Xun s "toxic", and go on with personal attacks about their looks, family or connections). It looks like this has become very common in c-dramaland, so that was probably what CFY dad [Chen Kaige} meant when he said he did not wish for his second born to enter that industry.
But it does look like CFY handles it well, despite his not viewing himself anything like Li Xun, personally, in real life. Respect ,💖 to both CFY and ZJY here, and kudos for the thrills and deeper thoughts they brought to us with L&P;

🤣🤣🤣

"post drama depression" syndrome. Am with you at the moment. Fourth or fifth time I experience it: first must have been AoL ; last one was LLTG. - Got advised Wild Bloom was not bad, so will check what's out there already while waiting for Wednesday return to normal in scheduling.

Recommending The Brightest Star In The Sky; also Negotiator, to start on Z.Tao filmography. I loved LR too and was amused by the recurring appearance of some things that link the three together, almost Hitchcock cameos style.

salute to fellow 海浪 🌊😁 I love ALL the songs of Z.Tao...
