freakishly weird. A lot comparison to season 1

This is the first time I try to write the review before I've finish watch the drama. But this is also the first drama between season that have that much different. For the fans of Go Go Squid season 1, watching this drama really weird, because not only the cast different but also overall theme of the drama is different, from hackers game to robot competition. I don't know will I feel more weird or not through out the drama. Cross my finger it will not and I'll gonna enjoy the drama.

Learning from people in the YouTube talking about this drama, I just find out that this actually 3 series book, & weirdly go go squid 1 is the third book of the series, this season 2 is the second book & the first book not even in drama yet. Wonder what's in the first book & will it appeared in our TV or not...? That's why this season plot is about before the season 1, during the season 1 & after the season 1 story.

After watching this season here are my comment:

What I like from this season:
+ The friendship between all the robot sportsman we really can feel it. They help each other when needed, even though they are opponent in one point.
+ Even though the cast is changing a lot from season 1, at the end I really glad they change some of the cast, especially the female lead. If they still use the same actress with the season 1, yeah I think she will not be too much suitable to be the female lead in this season.
+ We finally get to see who grunt / shen zhe (SZ) mysterious girlfriend. In season 1, she mention a lot but we never get to see her.
+ Go go squid 1 & 2 have not such thing as love rival, even though here solo / wang hao (WH) supposed to be the love rival, but WH moved too slow... Uniquely in this season the second lead (SZ) whose given love rival / crazy ex-girlfriend situation.
+ I really like the changing in KK base camp. Here is more cool.
+ They not always order takeaway, but zhou yi cooking in the base. And i really glad the writer not forget the fact that wu bai (WB) can't cook, in the season 1 we can see that WB can't even cut vegetable when Han Shang Yan (HSY) asked him to help.
+ A lot of plot being explained in this season, like why Ai Qing (AQ) suddenly became commentator in the competition between KK & SP
+ They mostly used the name of the character not the nick name, like solo here mostly called WH, grunt here mostly called SZ, etc. In the season 1, i even don't know grunt & solo real name.
+ The last episode when in the wedding the mc asked who will be champion in next year, WB really put in the weird circumstances, but he got answer so funny yet correct as the groom ^_^

At first i really glad they pay enough attention with the time frame in go go squid 1, but unfortunately the more toward the ending the time frame a little bit messed up. The messed up time frame & plot with go go squid 1 that I notice:
- The all star competition where WB, SZ & WH compete. It's supposed to be after national competition. And a little bit disappointed HSY not included in the competition, really hoping I can see all of HSY, solo, AQ included in the competition.
- Grandpa Han supposed to be already go back to Norway at some times. But in here he stay in china all the time.
- The year KK invented in season 1 is already 2 years at least, but in here is not even 1 year.
- Mi Shao Fei invited to be the leader at KK is different from season 1, of course our main lead from each season must be responsible for this ^_^, in season 1 is HSY, in here is WB :P.
- The disappearing of WB & HSY. They both disappearing a lot in the drama, in the season 1 WB who is disappearing & give the team to HSY to be take care of, in this season of course HSY who is disappearing & give the team to WB to be take care of.
- The changing in HSY & Tong Nian (TN) style. Yang Zi in this season a little bit fat, while li xian look a little bit older, especially in wedding scene where we can see his wringkle near the eyes :p. Yeah yeah i know they are not the main lead here. But i still glad the writer didn't forget to put the bracelet back in TN hand, even though still in the wrong hand ^_^. Little detail that makes me smile :)
- All of the kk's member still so afraid with HSY. In the season 1 they supposed already not too afraid with HSY anymore. HSY & WH relationship also supposed to be better already.

Ok. lets try to apart ourselves to the fact this is a sequel Go Go Squid 1. I think this is a boring drama, maybe because, like several people write in here, this drama is lack of problem, the romance just went a little bit too smoothly. They even not try to make the problem that AQ & WB who from very strong rival club a bigger problem, yeah I know at some point that maybe the plus, we can see how devoted WB to AQ. But they simply have no problem as couple & that frankly is what make this drama quite boring. Maybe if they make a little bit problem here & there & cut some boring unnecessary scene, the drama will gonna a little bit better. The romance itself for me not so much a big deal. I've watch more interesting drama with more romance scene.

I glad I watch this drama, but if this isn't the season 2 of go go squid I don't think I'll gonna watch this drama, or maybe this drama will gonna a little bit down on my list, because i don't too like robot competition theme that they used. I skipped a lot their competition scene. What I feel the most missing from this season is funnily is Demo, Xiao demo. No demo who is childish, they make one / Zhou Yi became a little childish and dumb.

I also really like the quote from AQ: dream is like a seed, they hibernate but never die.

Overall: This season for me a little bit boring compare to season 1. Many scene in my opinion is a little bit stretch just to make the drama longer. And for the song, I still more in love with season 1 soundtrack. Re-watch...? no i don't think i gonna re-watch

gemessss

I almost didn't watch this drama, because I think the main actress not too pretty, but because the actress not the actor I still decided to watched this drama ^_^. Don't judge me, I like to see pretty face in my drama :p.

This drama is about love can make us be better person, real friendship is for forever, communication is really important & every problem have a solution.

The first drama that makes me want to scream 'gemezzz' through all the episode. I don't find an exact word to express my feeling in English. A little frustrated see Liang You Nian (YN) so slow to realize his own feeling. A little touch when YN confess to Xia Miao Miao (MM). A little frustated to see YN just decided by himself about study aboard & didn't tell MM at all.

This drama is really well written. They give us several couple with their own problem. There is Kai Tuo (KT) & He Xin (HX), where HX always stick to KT until KT didn't realize his own feeling, a little distance really good for them. Kinda happy see KT at the end have to chase back HX. Wang Yi Chao (YC) & Fang Xiao Yue (XY), a little bit similar with KT & HX. But in here we can see in Asia we still have sex differentiate, when HX chase KT everyone said she have no shame, but when YC chase & finally confess to XY no one said bad thing about him ^_^.

They also give us several family with their own problem. There is YN & KT family where KT have really a huge anger in his heart about his own mom & dad. Once the problem solved they relationship turn to be good, communication is the key. Really touch when KT finally apologize to his mom. There is MM family where dad almost never home due to work.

YN & MM relationship also one of the sweetest & funniest. A little bit funny but also heartwarming when YN fulfill MM wish to hide their relationship. Really funny to see how jealous YN, his face suddenly change into sour like. Because the actress is still quite young (MM & HX) this drama didn't have much affection like other drama. But I think it's good because they can show us romance doesn't always need affection. Really happy because finally they give us actress & actor that matching their age in the drama.

I also think this drama will be better if some of the scene faster & the drama have fewer episode. Of course typical drama, stretch it as long as you can :p

Overall I really happy & satisfied watch this drama. If there's season 2 I will watch it. :)

Watch it because i saw them in 10 miles and really curious with the continue of their story. But boy oh boy a little regret watch this.

I don't like their attitude toward each other. Especially when Dong Hua (DH) became so childish in some way. Yeah their so sweet with each other. But i kinda hope DH not so childish when he face feng jiu (FJ). DH is sooooo old afterall. :D

Story: so many flaw if i may say if you compare with their background story in ten miles. I don't know which is messed up but first of all the age of FJ is different than in ten miles. In the ten miles the age of FJ supposed to be equal to Ye Hua at least 70,000 years, because she was born first than Ye Hua. But in here their downgrade her age just to 30,000. I don't know why, maybe so they can make FJ more childish like. The story of FJ born also different. The meeting story of si ming, cheng yu and FJ also different. Especially the story of how DH & FJ met is also different. There is some more that i not remember at this time

A little bit disappointed also with some of the changing setting like the Zhe Yan peach forest, DH palace. Even though setting here more beautiful but for me better the setting in ten miles. I more like it

Cast: a little dissapointed when they change zhe yan, zhen zhen and cheng yu. But in the end every one quiet fit their role expecially cheng yu.

Re-watch: watch one time is enough for me...

The story follows two bitter, modern-day rivals in the entertainment industry: Shen Juanjuan (JJ), a sharp and ambitious executive drama producer, and Chen Shaoheng (SS), the polished CEO of a rival production company. Operating in the fast-paced world of film and television, they spend their days fiercely competing for hot streaming scripts, top IPs, and high-stakes production deals.

Their ongoing feud reaches a boiling point during an intense corporate clash over their latest project—the screen adaptation rights to a poorly written romance novel. Right in the middle of their bitter war over this exact drama script, their lives take an absurd turn when they both unexpectedly wake up trapped inside the pages of the story itself. To make matters worse, they are forced to play characters that completely contradict their real-world personalities—all to fulfill system missions so they can escape back to reality.

JJ is forced into the role of a heavily abused, helpless, and constantly humiliated maid; her task is to kill SS. While SS is cast as a ruthless, tyrannical, and brutal ancient prince; his task is to make SS fall in love with him.

Desperate to get out, JJ spends her nights sharpening her dagger, crazily trying to assassinate him to move the plot along, while Shaoheng spends his days relentlessly teasing her and trying to win her heart.

As the two engage in this chaotic, laugh-out-loud "love duel" to see who can successfully clear their mission first, they have to maintain their fake character personas while secretly trying to outsmart one another.

However, the deeper they get into the novel's storyline, the more they are actually caught in a much larger, darker conspiracy hidden within the book's universe.

So, how does the story end? Will they successfully escape the book world, or fall for each other instead? And what happens if they do fall in love, when one of their missions is to kill the other?

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers.

Overall this is one of the good short dramas… This has a good & unique story, great actor/ess. Although it’s still s*cks in the matter of missing voices… Haha… Thanx god the text still exists, so we can still follow it…

So, if you only have a little time on your hand to watch, this can be your choice…

Watch this for Alphabet Challenge…

The drama follows Luo Weiqi (WQ) and her husband, Meng Yingchao (YC), who have been married for seven years. Over time, the spark in their marriage has faded, leaving them at a stressful crossroads filled with constant conflict and emotional distance. The tension finally reaches a breaking point when they have a massive fight and mutually agree to file for divorce the very next day.

However, when Luo Weiqi wakes up the following morning, she is shocked to find that Meng Yingchao's personality has completely flipped. YC suddenly transforms from a cold, indifferent spouse into an extraordinarily attentive, loving, and completely "perfect" husband.

While the sudden affection initially seems like a dream come true, the sheer extremity of YC’s personality shift quickly sets off alarm bells for WQ. She begins noticing subtle discrepancies in his habits and behavior that a seven-year marriage makes impossible to ignore. Driven by a growing sense of dread, she launches a quiet investigation into the man living under her roof, matching wits against him to uncover the dark truth behind his transformation and find out what truly happened to her real husband.

The more she digs into the mystery, the more unsettling the truth becomes. As the lines between reality and illusion blur, WQ must fight to uncover the true identity of the man claiming to be her husband before it is too late.

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers.

This really one interesting short drama. Once again, this is one of the short dramas that have a budget to shoot. The story is clear, the acting is good, no annoying BGM.

If you have a little time to watch, but search for something thrilling, this can be your choice…

So many people are discussing this on feeds. So I decided to watch it to see if it’s actually worth the hype. Haha... Let’s dive in and discuss this drama!

This is the story of Cheng Yi Chen (YC) and Lu Feng (LF). Their love story spans over a decade, from their innocent school days to a fraught, intense adulthood.

YC is a quiet, diligent student from an ordinary family, while LF is a rebellious and wealthy heir who lives by his own rules.

They knew each other in high school, where LF often bullied YC. But everything changed during their university years when they were placed in the same dorm room. LF finally dropped his bullying act and became friends with YC. As it turned out, LF had harbored feelings for YC all along; but as a teenage boy who didn't know how to handle his emotions, he had initially expressed his affection through bullying. As they spend more time together, their relationship deepens, and the two young men eventually fall deeply in love, forming a profound bond.

When their romance is discovered, they face intense opposition from their families and the people around them. LF is sent to the United States under his family's control, while YC is forced to transfer schools and rebuild his life without the one person he cannot forget. Separated by oceans and with no certainty of ever seeing each other again, their love becomes a memory that neither of them can escape.

Years later, fate brings them together once more. By then, both men had changed. YC has tried to move on and leave the past behind, while LF has never truly let go of him. Determined to reclaim what he lost, LF re-enters YC's life and pursues him with unwavering persistence.

They finally decided to try again for a second time, but reality quickly hit them. LF was ready to fight openly for their future, whereas YC was far more cautious, constantly torn between his love for LF, his responsibilities toward his family, and the harsh reality that the outside world still does not accept them.

This difference creates a growing gap between them. The breaking point comes when YC’s family situation becomes increasingly difficult, particularly because of his mother's illness and her inability to accept his relationship with another man. Rather than continuing to fight, YC chooses sacrifice. He pushes LF away, believing that ending their relationship is the only way to fulfill his duties as a son.

For LF, this second separation is even more devastating than the first. During their youth, he could blame circumstances and family interference. This time, however, he feels that YC is choosing to abandon him. Having already lost years of his life because they were forced apart, LF cannot bear the thought of losing YC again. His anger, desperation, and obsession intensify as he views YC's decision as a betrayal of the promises they once made to each other.

Years later, they crossed paths again. But this time, LF has completely shed the gentler side of himself and transformed into his ultimate toxic form. Consumed by a desperate need for revenge and an absolute refusal to let YC leave him again, LF resorts to extreme and controlling measures. He keeps YC under constant watch, using emotional manipulation, confinement, and surveillance to trap him in a gilded cage of his own making.

Yet, despite the intense psychological warfare and the sheer toxicity of the situation, YC never truly stopped loving LF. He tolerated a staggering amount of cruelty, recognizing that LF’s destructive behavior stemmed from deep, unhealed trauma and overwhelming heartbreak.

So, how does their story ultimately end? Will they finally break free from the trauma that has haunted them for years, or will that trauma ultimately destroy one—or both—of them?

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers.

What I like:
+ The growing pain is so real
+ How protective Yi Chuan (YC’s brother) is for YC.
+ YC & LF inescapable and consuming their feelings for each other.
+ The bitter harsh reality in Asians county. Unlike Thai BL where everyone seem accepting gays, here we can really witness the harsh reality when gays not accepted.

What too much for me to handle:
- The sheer of toxicity & feel the ownership that LF had for YC

Overall this quite worth the hype

My May Recommendation drama

Watched this because the recommendation challenge by 𝑨𝒓𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒊

Bloody Heart is a fictional historical political melodrama set during the Joseon era. The story centers on Lee Tae (LT), a newly crowned king determined to break free from the control of the court and establish an absolute monarchy. His ambition stems from watching his father constantly restrained by powerful nobles and ministers—a struggle that ultimately led to the loss of his mother.

Standing directly in LT’s way is Park Gye-won (GW), the powerful Left State Councillor and true "kingmaker" of the realm. To GW, unchecked royal power means tyranny—and he will not allow history to repeat itself. Having witnessed friends die under a previous tyrant king, GW wields control over the government like a puppet master, holding more real power than the King himself.

Long before the throne, LT met Yoo Jeong (YJ)—a woman unlike any other. Born into nobility, she defies tradition: sharp-minded, free-spirited, unafraid to speak her truth. She refuses to be confined by Confucian rules or women’s quarters. Captivated by her, LT chooses her to become his Crown Princess.

However, powerful political factions within the palace see YJ as a threat to the balance of power and orchestrate the downfall of her family. After her family is executed under false charges of treason, YJ is forced into hiding.

During those years in exile, YJ reinvents herself as a sharp and capable businesswoman. Her goal becomes surviving long enough to uncover the truth and clear her father’s name.

Years later, fate drags her back into the royal court—not by choice, but as a political pawn. This time, it’s Park Gye-won who pulls the strings. He uses her without knowing who she truly is. But when he finally realizes her identity? It’s too late to pull her out. The game has already begun.

Determined to survive the deadly power struggles, protect the people she cares about, and restore her family’s honor, YJ chooses to step into the center of the political conflict and aim for the position of Queen. Rather than remaining a mere pawn, she gradually establishes herself as a powerful strategist in her own right—often catching even the formidable GW off guard with her intelligence and political instincts.

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoiler.

What I like:
+ One of the most interesting power struggle between king & his ‘right hand man’
+ One of the most interesting story of love & politics intrigue
+ We don’t just have silent women who move behind the curtain.

What I not too like:

- As usual, the biggest struggle of Kdrama comes from the drama’s duration per episode.
- A little dissatisfied with the ending of queen's mother....

Overall this really one interesting political drama…

My April Recommendation drama

Finished this just because Recommendation Challenge from 𝑯𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒉𝒖

The Vendetta of An is a historical suspense and revenge drama set during the fictional Wude reign in ancient China. The story centers on Xie Huai An (HA), the sole surviving son of Liu Ziwen. Fifteen years prior to the main events, the ruthless General Yan Fengshan (FS) orchestrated the massacre of HA's family in a brutal bid to seize control of the powerful Huben army and dominate the imperial court. Forced into hiding, the young heir adopted a new identity and spent a decade living quietly as a low-ranking county clerk in Huainan, meticulously plotting his return while honing his intellect, strategy, and network of allies.

When the new Emperor Xiao Wuyang (WY), issues an edict summoning HA to Chang'an, the long-awaited moment for revenge finally arrives. The Emperor summons HA to the capital because he needs a brilliant strategist to help him secure his unstable throne and dismantle a hidden threat. WY who has just reclaimed the throne from his younger brother (the puppet emperor Xiao Wenjing (WJ)), but the city is still crawling with spies and "Dark Guards" loyal to the treacherous FS.

After surviving twelve assassination attempts in just one month, the Emperor realizes he cannot win this war with soldiers alone; he needs a mastermind who understands the enemy. HA is recommended to the Emperor as a man of "unparalleled intelligence." Specifically, he is valued because he is the son of Liu Ziwen, the founder of the Huben Army.

While the Emperor summons him for political stability, HA accepts the summons for his own personal mission. They form a dangerous alliance: HA agrees to find the missing deposed emperor (WJ), and the Emperor gives him the authority to personally execute his vengeance against FS.

What unfolds next is a tense, game of deception, counter-intelligence, and psychological warfare played out across the Chang'an. HA operates not through brute force but through calculated manipulation, using misinformation, psychological pressure, and the very structures of power against his enemies.

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers.

What I like:
+ Really one of the most complicated chess strategists I've ever watched. Truth to be told, my head is a little heavy from all the plot twists & how everything evolves in the end.
+ A good performance from all the actor/ess involved.

What I don’t like:
- A little heavy for my taste.

Overall if you looked for something heavy to watch, this at the end of the day is really one of the best & most complicated chess strategists drama. But for me personally, this really is not my cup of tea, if not for the challenge I've already dropped after the 1st episode. Haha…

My Feb Recommendation Challenge

Watched this for my Recommendation Challenge from 𝒏𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆. Let’s talk drama…

Song Xiaoyu is a struggling, minor actress who accidentally transmigrates into the world of a historical script she was cast in. To her horror, she becomes Song Yimeng (YM)—the tragic female lead destined to be manipulated, abused, and eventually killed by the ruthless male lead, Nan Heng (NH).

She arrives at the moment she is about to marry Chu Gui Hong (GH). In the original script, YM opposes the marriage because she is deeply in love with NH.

Knowing the plot tropes and her tragic ending, YM decides to fight against the narrative and do everything she can to successfully marry GH instead. However, she soon discovers she is trapped in an infinite loop. Every time she attempts to get married, she dies in one of 108 absurd and unique ways—ranging from a falling vase to accidental poisoning—before restarting at the same point.

When she finally accepts her fate, the script unexpectedly resets to a point long before everything began. Determined to escape her doomed destiny, YM begins rebelling against the narrative constraints. Yet no matter how hard she tries to avoid NH, she continues to cross paths with him.

As she lives inside the script, she realizes two unbreakable rules govern this world:
1. The "Big Banner Moments"—key plot events—will happen as the script written,
2. The Male Lead will save the Female Lead if she's in danger.

So, for the first rule, YM starts playing a game of wits, attempting to “hack” the script by deliberately acting out required scenes in controlled ways. But no matter how cleverly she maneuvers, those Big Banner Moments still occur—just in slightly altered forms.

As the 2nd rule, this rule changes YM’s attitude toward NH. She is no longer afraid of him, because harming her would only bring consequences upon himself.

NH is a very pitiful ML. No one likes him. To the people, he is the ruthless prince. To his father, he is the reason the Empress was murdered. To GH—once his closest friend—he is seen as the reason for his father’s death and the enemy who stole his glory in battle.

At first, NH gets close to YM because of her connection to GH. He needs the secret sword-forging technique that GH possesses. Given their close relationship, NH hopes to uncover the secret through YM. But when he realizes she isn’t easily fooled, he changes his approach.

NH starts to dislike her—even more so when he realizes he can’t hurt her due to the “ML saves FL” rule.

Now let's bring Chu Gui Hong (GH) into the picture. GH is the second male lead in the drama. He also has a tragic story—and in his eyes, it’s all because of NH.

First, NH became the cause of the Empress’s death—GH’s beloved aunt. The two boys, once best friends, grew apart and became strangers.

Second, after returning from the battlefield, GH discovers YM’s growing connection with NH—something that deepens his resentment and sense of betrayal. Because YM was betrothed to him… and he loves her deeply.

The greatest betrayal? During a crucial battle, GH sent a desperate letter asking NH for help. According to NH, he never received it. But in GH’s bitter heart, NH lied, he chose to ignore the plea—only to appear after the war ended and claim victory as his own. To GH, NH didn’t just abandon him. He stole his glory. His honor. His life.

As the story progresses, GH becomes increasingly consumed by hatred, especially after YM ultimately chooses NH.

The biggest difference from the original script is the emergence of Nightwalkers groups & their leader, Li Shiliu (SL). The group is initially introduced as a group of assassins, but as the story progresses, it turns out it also serves as a front for intelligence gathering and more clandestine activities.

Unbeknownst to YM, SL turns out to be NH's secret persona. NH creates the SL identity to gather information and correct the wrongdoings committed by his own family.

Unlike with NH, YM places her full trust in SL—seeing him as her savior and only true ally in this scripted world. Because to her, SL exists *outside* the script. Slowly, she begins to fall for him.

But over time, seeing how genuinely she treats *SL*, how kind and open she is toward the person only he can be—NH slowly begins to fall for her.

In the end, NH chooses to maintain the disguise—not just to gather secrets, but to stay close to her… and protect her.

As always, secrets cannot remain hidden forever.

What will happen when YM discovers that SL and NH are the same person?
Will NH confess first—or will YM uncover the truth on her own?
And how will NH react when that moment finally comes?

Just when things seem set, another twist arrives: the original drama’s writer also transmigrated into the script world.

What changes will this creator bring?
Will it be something good—for YM and the ML?
Or will it make everything worse?

Last but not least question:
Will YM eventually get back to real world & successfully did the drama?
Or will she stay inside the script world?

That's pretty much the story without giving the spoiler. Now what I like and don't.

What I like:
+ Li Yi Tong is quite funny. I like her here.
+ Li Yu Ning is also really good. I can see the pain in his eyes every time something unfair happens to NH.
+ The chemistry between Li Yi Tong and Li Yu Ning is also quite good.
+ I like Riley & Chu Dan. They're really good when they play supporting roles. Quite like their dynamics too…
+ Fu Gui is such a funny man…
+ I really like what happened with the emperor's family. Like how the relationship between NH & his family eventually gets better. Even Nan Rui himself finally grew up…

What I don't like:
- The twist where the writer also get into the script. I don't think this is a necessary act...

What I hope can be better in the end:
- GH can give up on his obsession & finally make peace with his situation… Seeing how his ending is really pitiful somehow. He's not a bad man, that's why I prefer a better ending for him.

Overall I am really happy I can watch this. It's kinda different than any other transmigration to the book/script story…

UGH!!!! NO NO NO!!! WHY...????!

Seeing someone posted this on the feeds, I got intrigued… and decided to watch it.

The story follows Shen Meng (SM) and Chen Jia Wen (JW), who break up on 520 (May 20th), known as Chinese Valentine’s Day. However, something unexpected happens. The next morning, when they wake up, only to realize it’s the same day again.

Confused, they reach out to one of their friends, Zhao Ming Xi, who explains that they are trapped in a time loop and if they want to break free, they’ll need to figure out why—and how.

At first, they didn't believe it. They try ignoring it. Fighting it. But no matter what they do, the day resets. Then, they notice something unusual—the projector in their room. Which usually plays one of the promises they made during their relationship, suddenly changes after they “complete” one of those promises.

With that discovery, they play by the rules and do their best to fulfill each promise. One by one, the projector made them revisit the promises they made throughout their relationship

1st. They promise to keep each other alive at the end of the world.
2nd. They promise to buy each other something once they can afford it.
3rd. JW once said he wanted to put SM in his pocket so he could take her everywhere—so they held hands for 24 hours straight.
4th. They used to underestimate each other’s jobs—so this time, they swap identities and step into each other’s roles, truly experiencing what the other goes through.
5th. When one of them suddenly develops a terminal illness, they vow to do everything to save each other—even if it means kissing an ex to help the other.
6th. SM once said she’d only feel heart-fluttering for JW—not any other man. Can that still be true?
7th. The alternative universe.

The seventh time is entirely different. SM and JW wake up before they ever start dating. They do cross paths again—but this time, they decided to not become a couple. Instead, armed with the knowledge of the future, they reshaped their own future.

But is this truly the end?
Will they escape the loop for good, or could it begin all over again?

In the end, this drama is not just about completing tasks to break a time loop like many similar stories. The loop becomes a lesson — teaching SM and JW about love, about each other, and about the importance of the promises that they once gave each other.

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers. Overall I quite like this short drama. Included in one of my top titles for short drama, if not only for one major flaw…













==================================================
SPOILER ALERT!!!

It's unfinished story… UGH!!! No, it's not open ending. It's unfinished story!!! And i really hate how they finished this short drama…

The story spans over a decade and follows the complicated relationship between Ding Zhitong (ZT) and Gan Yang (GY).

The story begins on a university campus where ZT, a hardworking girl from a modest background, meets GY, a wealthy and popular "golden boy." While ZT is focused solely on survival and clearing her family's debts, GY is captivated by her tenacity. Despite their "social chasm," GY falls for ZT’s resilience and pursues her relentlessly. They eventually fall in love, finding common ground despite their different upbringings.

As graduation approaches, GY’s family business suddenly collapses, leaving him with astronomical debts. Believing he has no future and wanting to shield ZT from a life of financial struggle, GY makes the heartbreaking decision to break up with her without explaining his true situation. ZT, feeling betrayed and "dumped" without explanation, grows to resent him deeply as she faces her own life hardships alone.

A decade later, ZT has become a successful, high-ranking professional in the investment industry. Her life is orderly but emotionally cold. She crosses paths with GY again, who has spent years working from the bottom to rebuild his reputation and family legacy. ZT is tasked with a project that requires her to work directly with GY. They must navigate their past wounds, lingering hatred, and the undeniable chemistry that never truly went away.

Now the question:
? What did ZT face during their separation time…
? Will they be able to face their past and continue their relationship, or will the past still be the thorn in the flesh that still haunts them…

That's pretty much the story without giving anymore spoilers.

This actually feels much like the story of Lighter & Princess. I must admit I haven’t watched Lighter & Princess, but I sneak peek into it a little bit, and for the first impression it’s kinda on the same vibe…

But overall, quite frankly I am quite bored with all kinds of stupid misunderstanding plot that ML & FL had… But, yeah… In the end this still considered quite good drama in the book

Watched this because someone posted on feeds, curious I checked it. Turn out even though it's quite messy, this is actually quite good…

Let's discuss drama…

Story about Xia Jun Feng (JF), Professional race car driver who seeks treatment for his condition and meets urologist Jin Ye (JY). JY falls in love with JF at first sight and, under the guise of "treatment," gets closer to him. Their doctor-patient relationship soon crosses boundaries, and JY becomes an indispensable part of JF's life.

The biggest problem they have to face now is JF's dad. JF is a rich son of a wealthy man, his dad expected him to married & have children to continue their bloodline. JF even already had a fiancé ready for him to take it into next step. So, now how JF & JY face JF's dad & the world about their relationship...?

Yeah, as messy as the summary is, this short drama didn't care about doctor-patient law that prohibited doctors from dating his patients. Haha

But in terms of short drama, this has everything you need. Complete & compelling story that made you stick to your screen, chemistry between the couple, the ‘hot’ scene that made your breath stop. Hoho…

So, if you have just 2 hours to spend, this can be a good choice to watch…

Another drama about coroner. Let's watch…

The story begins with a major political tragedy. Shen Wan (SW) is the daughter of a high-ranking official and renowned coroner. Her family is massacred after her father is falsely accused of aiding a disgraced prince, Prince of Jin. SW is the sole survivor.

To hide from her enemies and seek justice, SW assumes the identity of Qin Wan, a woman who died in a remote valley. Using her exceptional medical and forensic skills, she solves a series of eerie cases and eventually meets Yan Chi (YC), the crown prince of King Rui. YC is determined to clear Prince Jin’s name—an ambition that aligns perfectly with SW’s mission to vindicate her father. As a result, YC becomes SW’s strongest ally and protector.

Together, they travel back to the capital while unraveling a string of strange and mysterious cases. Along the way, their relationship deepens, gradually evolving from mere partners into something more…

After returning to the capital, the discovery of a skeleton leads to the reopening of Prince Jin’s case. As they dig deeper into the investigation, YC and SW uncover the truth and ultimately expose a shocking secret buried deep within the palace.

That's pretty much the story without giving the spoiler. Now what I like and don't.

What I like:
+ The chemistry between Landy Li & Ao Rui Peng not bad
+ The case & the overall plot are quite interesting
+ How funny that everyone definitely must be thrown up when they see their first autopsy. That's just so normal…
+ The way everyone around ML & FL support them

Overall this just another drama on my list

Watch this for the MDL challenge. In the end, this one the movie that manage make me breathless when I watch it……

Let's begin our review…

The film is based on the real-life miracle landing of Sichuan Airlines Flight 8633 on May 14, 2018. During the flight from Chongqing to Lhasa, the cockpit windshield shattered at an altitude of nearly 30,000 feet, causing explosive decompression and extreme cold.

Maintaining an extraordinarily cool head, the captain, Liu Chuanjian successfully landed the plane at Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport with no fatalities among the 119 passengers and 9 crew members.

Director Andrew Lau turns this true story into a heart-pounding, adrenaline-fuelled high-altitude blockbuster that will literally leave you breathless.
The kind of movie that doesn’t just show tension, it makes you *feel* it in your chest.

I am amazed with how calm the pilot & flight attendants were during the crisis. Especially the head flight attendant, she really did manage to keep her calm & composure even with all the panic passengers.

I was amazed by how composed the pilots and flight attendants stayed during the crisis. Especially the head flight attendant—her strength and professionalism stood out. Even with panicked passengers screaming around her, she kept her composure and did her job flawlessly.

This movie truly made me breathless during the most intense scenes. If you were sitting next to me, you’d find me gripping your hand during those moments…

If you love films that pump adrenaline straight into your veins—if you want to feel every second of danger, courage, and human willpower—and keep your heart racing, this is definitely one you need to watch.

I highly recommend it.
