I just came here to share how pretty darn lucky I feel, to have just recently watched the 1st season, so I could continue straight to the second one and didn't have to wait 4 yrs for it like many other fans. This series is frickin' brilliant, such a fun ride. Finished S2 a week ago and still can't move on.
This made me watch drama without hitting ⏩ button. It's so good that I want to watch everything, no boring parts imo. Kudos to the writer. I picked this up randomly, didn't expect I got a gem.
I hope this one will be good. Lately the quality of cdrama was average to not good. They just keep giving us good looking actors and actresses with VERY WEAK script.

Zhao Lusi looks excellent and I will watch her edits but the ML is downright old, creepy uncle looking and not…
I seriously don't know which part of William Chan looks like a creepy uncle. Is it his glasses? Or yours? Haha. He's very charming and based on what I've read, the Chinese audience love him. Younger actors may not have the weight to carry off this role as well.

While looks and talent are utmost important for an actor, so is popularity, sponsorship and network/connections.…
When she got blacklisted? If she got blacklisted, how can they air their drama? And how can they air it on national Satellite TV (Dragon TV) ? How can the chinese government medias praise her left and right? Please do more research before talk nonsense… she just has a fight with agency
