Shielding her from the rain is seriously a boyfriend thing to do…..

Then hello there roomie

He’s got quite the angelic face.

Welcome to the Cdrama family. Might I recommend a few to you? Love like the galaxy is a historical drama. The ML is a grey character similar to Xie Wei minus the madness. Another is Love between Fairy and Devil. ML is also grey. It’s a period fantasy. Please don’t get deterred by the FL’s voice. First of all it’s her real voice and second it’s to show her youth. Those two are my favorite. There are many others. Chinese period dramas come in 3 main categories. Wuxia (martial arts world), Xianxia (gods and goddesses), and historical (usually palace dramas).

Like zero romance.

Nirvana in fire is possibly the best political drama I’ve ever seen. Even though there’s no romance, but the chemistry between the characters is just so utterly heartbreaking.

Love like the galaxy. ML is definitely gray..

Yeah I heard that too.

Before you start, let me make it clear to you . The ML is very complex. He is cunning, aggressive, and sometimes psychotic due to some massive trauma. With that being said he’s also a feminist. He’s a scholar that believes that woman should also be educated like men. The FL is no damsel in distress. She is just as cunning and complex. Neither of them gives off the green flag especially the ML.

It’s sad that all they got out of the drama was toxicity. What I saw was two broken people finding their way to each other despite their individual insecurities.

I stopped watching Thai dramas too. Mainly because too much toxicity that even I can’t handle. And lots of screeching women.

The rape scene is more insinuated. Not completely shown.

They are lucky they changed Xie Wei a little bit. He’s far darker in the novel. There’s only two things he cares about. Revenge and JXN. He could care less about anyone else.

She’s not passed out drunk. She’s asleep. Which means she WILL wake up if it goes further. But I can see your point because they haven’t slept together yet.

Why watch the drama then and bash those of us that enjoyed it? There’s no need for that. People watch dramas because it is different from their own lives. The majority of people that enjoy this drama is because the complexity of each character and storyline.

Pot calling the kettle black……

You’re lucky they mellowed him out a bit. If the XW drama is the same as the novel drama, I don’t think it will go well with the audience.

You forget that she’s already gone through one life in which one she was married. It isn’t like she’s a shy virgin.

Yes but that’s why it’s so interesting. It’s about two broken people finding their way to each other. Despite Xie Wei’s craziness, JXN was able to see the man beneath. She understood why he is the way he is.

If she wants a boring passionless life that is constantly under scrutiny because ZZ is as square and straight lace as they come. Frankly I would rather have someone who desires and want me as much as I want him and is not ashamed about it….
