and the plots are basically the same! a total lack of originality in high-profile romances.

Yes, one of my friends has just written that the wider audience is loving the series and actors like Yibo are becoming popular among them which is good news for an actor in China.

Yibo excels in this kind of serious drama, where there is no romance. It is finally allowing him to get the respect that he deserves as the fine actor he has become. His performance in Hidden Blade is proof of this and he is receiving international mainstream acting nominations and recognition. Given the choice, several top actors in China would prefer no romance productions.

A number of top actors in China are trying to avoid plots with high-profile romances because the reaction of fans has become too toxic, When fans are at war, they are the ones who have to "pay the price" as per current government regulations. Additionally, the larger older audience prefers this kind of plot as they find romances too repetitive (so I have been told by Chinese friends living in China). This series is great, it is a pity that you are going to miss it.

This series is excellent. It is so interesting, great script, and impeccable performances. It is very dynamic, the pace is really quick. Yibo Wang excels as Wei Ruo Lei. His performance as a provincial, naive, and sweet genius is so moving. The scene in Ep 3 drank is unmissable. Yibo started to show that very vulnerable side of his acting since his role as LWJ in The Untamed, and he just keeps growing. My favourite Yibo's performances have been in his "communist" productions, portraying the young Jiang Xian Yun, an early communist hero, and of course as a secret agent in Hidden Blade. Wang Yan as Shen Tu Nan is so dashing and convincing. Li Qin is a hero in this production and it suits her so well. China has a rich and powerful history and by navigating the censorship and the propaganda we are able to enjoy this kind of production. This one in particularly I highly recommend.

I really like this series. It is very entertaining and has a good script and sound performances. For those criticising the FL character, you definitely are not fan of Scandinavian crime noir. These main characters FL and ML in police dramas that are socially awkward and authority clueless are inspired by the Swedish, Danish, Icelandic series. Since the boom of the Scandinavian crime noir every other series around the world in the crime/police genre has brought those kinds of borderline main characters. This series is a very good police drama but it is also light hearted which Scandinavian crime noir is not. Highly recommended.

Ep 3 - That was a lovely bed scene. Robin Furuya and Makoto Hasegawa, the actors, have the most beautiful and perfect voices for their roles. All their feelings and intentions are perfectly toned. I could listen and watch them forever. We have more coming in Ep 4, so looking forward.

It is disgusting people passing judgement about the parties involved as if they have been there. It takes 2 to tango, in this case 3. If we have a minimum experience in life we know that breaking ups can be a very grey area because for the one who wants to end the relationship, there is one account of the truth for the one resisting, in this case it looks is Hyeri, is another one. So while for him, the relationship ended when he proposed to break up, because men rarely overthink separations, she, the one resisting would read every little conversation as an open book. Hence the different narratives involved. It is a pity that HSH reacted with a comment. I know she was trying to defend her reputation and as an independent woman, she just went for it, - bad idea. It would have been much better to negotiate with him to be the first one to come forward about their current romantic liaison, but we know men are useless in these situations.

When I started to watch this series I thought it was great but third way through I realised this is going to be the same, it is like you are watching the first 10 eps repeated three times! same dialogue, same situations, same reasons for breaking and getting back together, and who can cope with this level of cheesiness but I am afraid there are a lot of Chinese modern romance series that are so cringy. The romance between the doctor and the younger fireman was far-fetched and the most interesting storyline involved the characters of the best friend and the top female actor was very reduced. Very good performances by Ci Sha and Jia Ni in those roles, their faces are beautiful both are from different ethnic groups in China but I cannot believe that Jia Ni has that voice, she must have been dubbed, that voice is worse than a cartoon character but again it looks like the dubbing for women in China aimed to make them look as stupid and childless as possible. Even within China this is criticised so I don't know why they do this!

I watched eps 1 and 2 and am so in love with the original Yang Canwei performed by Zheng He Hui Zi. She is such a beautiful actor with bounds of talent (that I did not know before) and matches perfectly with Liu Yu Yei as the ML. Lots of chemistry there which when I saw the poster with Ju Jing Yi before watching the series I did not find. Ju Jing Yi is an accomplished leading lady, I know her work well , but the other YC won me over and now I cannot unsee her. I am already sad that she is going to be eliminated from the series "to force" the narrative with Ju Ying Yi (which we all knew was going to happen) I also don't like body swaps storylines so I really don't know if I should continue watching this series. The first two eps have been really good.

They have confirmed they are together, now better to leave them in peace!

This is a wonderful drama that needs and deserves a 2nd season! There are so many things we need to know and things that are left to resolve, like the survival of The Farm. There are many feminist subplots here: 1) The central idea is based on what scientists have known for decades that chromosome X (females) is stronger than Y (males). In weaker "sperm production", are the Xs the ones that survive the most. There is also a prevalent survival of females in a whole range of conditions; premature birth, heart diseases etc. Yes, women are physically stronger than men, don't confuse this with gender conditioning about who should be stronger. 2) The series presents a society entirely run by women and keeps functioning even in challenging conditions. 3) In the series the heroes are women, Valentine, Chal, Day, May, the head producer etc. They choose well for themselves and others and are able to change the course of this fictional history, so I want to see more. It is a 10 for me.

They are VIP so is a paying service

2nd episode - The CPs characters in this episode have become more interesting, more defined, convincing, and very attractive. Great performance by Robin Furuya and Makota Hasegawa in the lead roles. Aloha is an attractive presence that creates tension in the plotline but his acting skills need to improve a lot still. He was a bit of a letdown in Tokyo in April though the chemistry with Yuki Sakurai, his CP, was strong.

I loved this comedy. It is a must-watch if you like Thai sense of humor. For me, Thai and Chinese productions bring such good comedy scripts. On the other hand, despite I watch tones of K dramas, I always find K comedy cringy. Performances are fabulous from all the cast. Namfah the FL is excellent the same as the actor playing her mother-in-law. She is so good that I felt like strangling her in all the episodes!!! The ML is always so serene amidst the chaos and the little girl character is amazing. The romance is on point the CP is adorable. Lots of chemistry. Highly recommended.

Thank you! I got that completely wrong. They don't look fond of each other so I thought this is a typical sibling relationship. They are closed but not necessarily they get along that great!

Despite of having likable characters and even more likable actors, I was never convinced by the main subject of the series, so I did not really care for what was happening. The best of this series has happened outside the series. The ghost ship of Nut and Sailub is epic. They really need their own BL!

They are siblings not just "brothers" and there is no bromance at all with anybody else. There is a bit of hetero romance: one of them is married and the other two have love interests but this play a very small part in the series.

This is a very pleasant BL. Junior and Fluke are a very endearing CP. Their performance is heartfelt and it managed to move me in the right moments in the plot. The storyline about their past misunderstanding is convincing enough so I am rooting for a happy reunion for them.

Thank you. No, I have not watched the anime.
