Good Grief

MDL ratings are meaningless!!! Honestly. . . they are meaningless!

Meanwhile, The Apartment Job is already matching the "1st weekend" ratings of The Reborn Rookie that ended (final episode) as one of the highest rated kdramas in the past several years.

I repeat: MDL ratings are meaningless. I'm looking forward to seeing the upcoming Netflix ratings. As in WORLDWIDE views which DWARF MDL "views".

Just sayin' lol.

I love Ha Yoon Kyoung so much! she nails every single role she does 💙

So the backstory plot is mostly that ML father died saving FL and sister got hurt that time too, so they're blaming her which is stupid tbh

Whenever I see her face, my mind starts playing the chorus of Lana Del Rey's "Salvatore". She's just too beautiful, stunning, mesmerizing.

Im tired of the first love trope by now.

legal ≠ moral/ethical however so this comment doesn’t add much to the convo. I haven’t seen people question the legality of this casting only the ethics.

Congratulations

Congratulations

Agreed. As a guy I was like tell her, he was obviously two timing. And if she didn't know he had a GF she NEEDS to know he made her the other woman.
Hopefully she finds out later.

And surfer guy calling her out for being with ugly was hilarious

Why are Korean writers so intent on making FLs into dumbass figures who assume, then act before checking anything. Do they really have no other idea for the story besides the misunderstandings?

The romance, the journey, the characterisation, more or less is not too far from the novel itself.

If I may defend Sikong Qianluo, she grew up as a pampered young lady, fully spoiled not only by her father but also by the whole city. But at the end of the series, she grew up and became slightly mature although still held her fiery temper [which was inherited from her deceased mother].

The romance is indeed not the focus of the whole story but it does exist between those 2 pairs. I think the author wanted to emphasize that sometimes there can be mutual attraction between 2 very opposite personalities.

As for Wuxin, his portion in the series is not much different from the novel. He had his own personal agenda, to see his mother, ask some questions, and perhaps took her away [if possible] so he didn't fully assist Xiao Se on his journey. Even so, he had a deep bond with Xiao Se and Lei Wujie, especially with Xiao Se.

Basically the focus is Xiao Se's journey to defend Beili, cleared out his uncle Langya Wang's name and uprooted the real mastermind behind his uncle's death.

He was accompanied by his closed friends and confidantes in which 4 of them were his guardian as well.

I think since the characters were mainly teenagers in between 15/16 to 22/25, their temper, personalities, and behaviours were in line with their ages, and family background/education.

So, the romance, the presence/non presence characters wasn't made to attract audience or whatsoever, but everything followed the novel as close as possible.

Thank you
😊👏🏼💐

At least release half or 7 episodes before mentioning about season 2
(That's too early for season 2 talks)

What the hell? It's always the women who gets attacked over things. Leave our girl alone! 😔
