Mstique

Well, color me shocked!

I seriously never liked Noel and I don’t regret skipping all her scenes. She reeks desperation. I have no opinion of her lol

You ladies and gents are all watching this with your Hollywood lenses. “Going to sleep would be a waste” in cdramaland means “let’s go out, on a date, hug, hold hands and then come back to the bedroom to cuddle and sleep with a kiss on the forehead before turning off the lights to sleep”

The drama, friend. Which chapter regarding the book, and how did you make sense of this translation? lol

No, I don’t think more happened on his birthday.

Not as obvious as other shows, where it is strongly implied like Hidden Love

Ep 22: why do I feel that more than just kisses happened? hmm

She was ready to die at that moment…smh.

This is the “save the damsel in distress” scene. ML showing in the nick of time to be a hero. C’mon you should know this. lol

“Cafe Forbidden Love” …even the cafe is giving you hints that you shouldn’t do it lol.

“Cafe Love Affair” lol I’m weak

all good. will check it out again. thanks

What!!!????!!!!!

Tbh, I was annoyed at ep 12 when she let go of the ML’s hands and thought something like “I was wrong, I only pick up bad hands”… me: 🫤😒

Which scene is that? exact time stamp? thanks

oh on thanks :)

Ok, thanks for the recommendations.

Yes, she did not know because the ml kept that info to himself

No I did not mean being friends with other women, just having friends (male and female friends) in general, and being fun to be around

While I like this show (not so much the last two episodes), it made me realized even more how a lot of MLs lack personality or are one dimensional: they are either cold, and sometimes with low EQ, or too good to be true, like pinning for the Fl without dating anyone for years and years, well into their 40s.

I can count on one hand the MLs who actually have more than 1 friend (who isn’t the work sidekick, secretary) and are easy-going and fun to be around.

Any recommendations?

Ok at ep 20: the time jump is a bit confusing…Anybody know the timeline? They met in Finland and how many months did they dated before the Fl left to go back to China?Once in China, the ml visited her on her bday and the next jump was a year and a half?

And it seems there was another jump?

So, they have been dating for at least 2 1/2 by the most recent episode (ep 20)?

I doubt it was solely on the lovey-dovey, it was also the wedding
