It’s one thing to be wanted to be treated equal to someone but it’s another thing to want it handed on a platter to you even though you don’t measure up to it

I have not heard about a season2- don’t think there is one

Will I ever be able to shake this drama off?

Welcome to the club!

But he is only 18 or 19 during that college arc - none of them are mature at that age. A lot of kids have a chip on their shoulder at that age

They truly had a deep relationship - both leads were interesting characters

I am dropping The Starry Love can’t stand the female lead

Yeah it’s slowly becoming mine too- very interesting story

Same here

It’s like it looked like she had everything but no freedom - how does that work even?they drove her to depression and become suicidal - I cannot forgive that at all

Yeah The Starry Love is good

Not just annoying- they are controlling and abusive

Yeah I did not feel the need for the male character to get better. He grew through his experiences but remained the same at the core

Very disappointing drama. Could have been so much better

And you are right whether LX apologized or not it would not have made a difference neither to FZJ nor to Gao. They would have gotten to him in a different way and the prize would have been cancelled.

That is the male character - he is cold, unfriendly, rude and has very rough edges. And a lot of the story is about his character development and how the female plays a huge role in it. They are not sugarcoating anything here .

In fact after 4th watch I have come to the conclusion that ZY is the most interesting character. She is not a doormat. She is actually a very strong person who knows exactly what she wants and she goes at it - nothing can stop her. T really admirable character. This show also captures the fact that a relationship/loving someone is not just about the fluff and romance- it’s so much more deeper than that. There will be ups and downs in life and you have to stand with each other through all of this

Lol finished 5th time and contemplating 6th watch after looking at some snippets

I did not say anything negative - just that this cannot be categorized as a melodrama for the same reasons you alluded to

Yes understated and realistic with mature characterizations is a good description for it
