Not a Robot

Yes, the book makes it easier to understand the how the Xue, Jin, and royal family history works, but there is SA and although the MC is 19, the ML is still 15. From what I read on MDL, people get freaked out by these types of age gaps.

After watching the trailer, I did not have high expectations for this drama, but I really like it so far. Although I don't like the old school Myer-Briggs personality test results flashing everywhere, I like that God and Diew are really listening to each other.

I enjoyed this series very much, especially San realizing that he loves Wee, and not Wad as Wee, or even Wad. I just want to know where the location of San's house is. I wonder if it is a museum or an office building.

Thank you for letting me know because if I like it, I would have missed out because of pas shows I've watched.

I just found out that the Thai actor, Achi was actually speaking Thai during his lines in the cave. Maybe his voice was not dubbed in the Thai voice track.

Read at your own risk. They had to make changes for the series.

I'm even more impressed by this cast! Production uploaded a video of Li Le reacting to the cave scene and he said that Achi only spoke Thai, so they had to use a certain word cue to let the Chinese actors know the line had ended. These guys are great.

I can't stand the Bachelor, Bachelorette. I also do not like reality TV with all of the drama and bickering. From the synopsis, this looks like the Real World from back in the day, and I'm not sure that I can handle dumb drama. Maybe I'll try one episode in the future.

I'm glad people are enjoying this. I don't watch dating shows so I won't watch this, but I clicked here because I thought it was a drama. Have fun!

Having read the manga, I was wondering how they would bring it to life since the age gap is huge, but they have done a fantastic job so far. The manga is more slice of life, not sexual, so they have something to work with, but this cast is fantastic so far. The actor who plays the ex seems really good too. Frito is doing fantastic too.

One of the more disturbing scenes was, a husband took his mistress to his home, and the young daughter (young elementary school) confronted her by stairs. The little girl lost her balance and grabbed the arm of the mistress. The mistress shook off the girl's hand and the girl fell down the stairs, and was unconscious for many days. This same mistress and the husband later took the unconscious little girl out of the hospital, while they plotted a murder for hire of the child's mother. And I only watch clips. In most shows there is usually a miscarriage and they show blood running down legs of the woman. But gay is bad.

What puzzles me about the law is, almost every Chinese drama I've seen involves adultery, cheating, side babies, and physical abuse, but two men falling in love is more harmful?

I'm sad, but I'm not as sad about Addicted because it ended at the end of Volume 1, but I'm still hurt over Love is More than a Word having the whole middle part missing. I also want to see Volume 2 of Addicted, but because the plot involves the military, I do not think it will ever happen out of China.

And the whole middle part of Love is More Than a Word and the third part of Like Love.

If they didn't make the laws 10 years ago, China would be the leader in BL. They were producing great content mostly on shoestring budgets.

When every other page of the manga is the couple having sex, that poses a problem. But there are a few volumes so I'm sure they can work it out. The cast looks like they fit the roles. I haven't watched it yet, but thanks for letting me know that it has a good start.

I liked We Are (should have been 12 episodes though), and I like Love Sea, but I'm not a fan of MLMU Thai version. I don't hate it, but could drop it and be okay with it. I have read the manga and watched the Japanese version, and I know that is influencing my opinion. I am a very lenient and generous critic, I like almost everything, even shows other people hate, but I can't get on board with this. I think that Gemini and Fourth are excellent actors, so it must be the writing and direction. In contrast, I read the manga, watched the film and am now watching the series, Hidamari ga Kikoeru and am not having the same content fatigue. I'm more disappointed that I feel this way.

I like Gemini and Fourth but I am not really into this series, partly because I've read the manga and watched the JBL version, and this does no do justice to the source material. This should have been an 8 episode series. I even started on Episode 3 and realized that I should have waited until episode 6. I don't hate it, but I don't love it either. The eraser club and the handshake is just silly.

I usually watch the 2 releases back to back, but I'm not going to lie, I hate the "Titanic" type love story between Wad and San. Partly because I don't believe in love at first sight, or soul mates, but as a parent, I would also be concerned about my child completely shaking up their lives for a person they do not really know. Not that I would force a marriage either though, but I live in 2024, so I have the room to make those decisions, but I hope that I would be that way in 1924. Thailand still doesn't have social security, I've seen many elderly women begging in Bangkok, so I also understand not wanting my child to marry a person of San's background until he could prove financial stability. As you describe, it's all very complicated. They all are trying to make the "best" decisions from their own perspective, giving only small thought to the other person's POV. This is why I was actually enjoying how San fell in love with Wee, as himself, not as Wad. Since the family is not going to be a barrier in this incarnation, we will see if it is true love, or if all are still out for their own agendas.

I had to binge this and just got to episode 6. Although I could do without the death scene being played multiple times per episode, what I like is, they show the spirit is reincarnated, not the person. Each life is a different person. Same goes for Third and this Wad look a like who is probably genetically related to her. The true test is, does San really love Wee, or a ghost from 100 years ago? I also enjoyed the twist with the Grandma lol.
