its kind of a major spoiler. if you are sure, I can pm you.
Ah well, i just have high hopes, cause this director has successfully adapt a book into a smash hit before, which i enjoy (i didn't read the book, but i didn't see any reader complaining about it either). But yeah, i'll try to curb my expectations so i won't be too disappointed if it crashed 😅

above everything i really hope they're not going to try to shove a love triangle too much into the main couple relationship. book xie zheng was even got jealous by random person standing within 2m radius of chang yu, if they stretch this stupid jealousy angle for too long in the drama i really would not be able to tolerate it.
i ffwd the first ep but i think some of the jokes got lost is translation. i feel like if i'm watching this with better contextual understanding it would be a lot funnier.
I just completed the novel, man what a ride. I rarely read translated chinese historical novel because of the…
On the contrary i think it doesn't stray that far from the spunky and un-ladylike characters that she usually plays. From NLB, WCRG, ROTF, and i think even her character in dafeng is not going to be the typical princess character. However, i think she's probably going to be dubbed cause her real voice is very cute and girly and not very suitable for a female general.
what was that epilogue lololol are they pulling the marvel card now. the little girl is so cute though. now that i think about it, this director loves to put mini cross-references as easter eggs in his short dramas. let's see if he'll do it again in his other drama after this. who knows if we would get zhao zhao mo mo couple cameo on that linghe-xiwei drama that's currently in the making.
Maybe because grief got to him. He lost his mom, then found out his dad was the cause of it all. Later his beloved…
i think it's kinda intentional cause this drama is rather FL centric, in my opinion. in the first place, this drama was about DZ's second chance and it just so happens that she met the same person from her first life. we also see things from her POV most of the time, since SM doesn't remember anything from his past life.
I haven't got time to finish this yet, but i just want to note that i love the scene where DZ was doing hair care for SM, washing and coloring and then putting it up in a hairdo, all the while casually discussing about the state of current politics XD. I love how this director always manage to make domestic situation like this feels so sweet but meaningful at the same time. It's one of the things that i like about his short dramas and I'm glad he has more chance to do it in a longer drama.
I honestly think the Wang Xingxue arc went on for too long with its tired schemes. Apparently the actress is an…
so that's why she show up during the promotion rounds? usually it's just ML & FL with secondary or occasionally third couple, i was wondering why the stepmom was there too lol
I really love the way the ML looks at the FL. He gives me butterflies with those eyes dripping honey 🍯, full…
same! i always love when ML character in a drama does this; looking at her like he's constantly in awe that this capable and gorgeous lady is now his wife, so full of fascination and amazement... ugh it makes me feel so single lol
Just finished marathoning all the aired episodes yesterday, I'm glad i choose a relatively happy point to start this (the wedding episode was one of the most epically funniest i've ever seen). This drama is low key addictive. I came here with zero expectation, but when i checked the crew behind this, turns out it's made by my favorite short drama director! No wonder the style is so familiar, and everything on screen feels like a treat for the eyes. Another thing that i like is that they don't dwell on the emotionally draining part. Like, some drama loves to milk the viewers tears, but this drama, they showed the characters low point, but immediately pick them up again. Pacing is also good enough cause so far i don't feel like i've stumbled into any boring point. Even though it took me a while to remember the characters and the conflicts between them (and idk if it's just a 'me' problem cause i feel like they're all look very similar and styled very similarly, especially the older male characters), but all in all it has been quite enjoyable. Eagerly waiting for the next episodes, i hope this would be able to maintain the quality until the end.
Finding this on 2024 is weird, cause it has similar premise to lovely runner (with different character background), but this one actually came out earlier. Then again, it's not like a time travel based story is completely new. Of course comparing a full length drama to a micro drama is not apple to apple. Regardless, I think this one did pretty well given all the limitations.
This is a short and sweet drama that's very bingeable! Not in the sense that it's addictive or attention-grabbing, but more like, it's so light and comforting that it's so easy to digest. The comedy is a hit or miss, but i love basically all the characters (the 'villains' are pretty much one dimensional but easy to ignore). There's no extreme high or low in terms of mood. Even the sad part is still digestible.
I'm also pleasantly surprised by how easy the romance has been going. Of course with 12 episodes, there's not much room to drag, which is a good thing cause we don't have to deal with nasty ex or dreading love triangles.
Im on episode 6 and i very much enjoy this drama but i wish the relationship between kim san ha and jo won was…
Tbh, same. The transition was quite abrupt, even more so because i binge watched it so there's no time for me to mull over their relationship. One moment they meet after ten years, and the next second she's in love?? Even their first kiss felt somewhat wrong because i wasn't sure she was there yet with her feelings. But then she just accepted it? Was she being gaslighted or something? I understand that for sanha, juwon has always been a welcoming presence and him developing feelings for her was a natural progression. But her? When? How?
