I'm reading the synopsis, and it's probably the 400th "reunited as adults" drama at this point. We literally get this exact kind of storyline every single year.

Korean writers genuinely have zero ideas for dramas at this point—it's getting seriously ridiculous. It's always the same damn clichés on repeat whenever it's not an office drama.

And then there's always the same setup where either the ML or the FL has become successful while the other hasn't and spends the whole time dwelling on the past. Over and over and over again.

Will the songs sung by the FL’s ex be released or not? I really like them.

I'm so confused. We're in 2011 in the drama, right? Or am I getting it wrong? Then why did Miao Jing's phone say 2007?

Sometimes it's honestly hard to follow. The show jumps from 2011 to 2007 without any clear transition, so it's easy to get lost.

Episode 17 was absolutely insane. This is hands down the best drama currently airing. Chen Yi and Miao Jing, I love you both. A solid 10/10, no debate.

And the soundtrack... every single song is perfect. I never would've expected Song Weilong and Zhang Jingyi to have this kind of chemistry, but they're absolutely electric together. Holy fucking shit, their chemistry is unreal. ❤️🔥

Well, the release is just a few hours away! Now it's time for predictions for one of the most anticipated K-dramas of Summer 2026.

What do you think—will it be a success or a flop?

I'm specifically talking about its rating on MDL, since a K-drama that gets a low score there can still be a huge success elsewhere.

The poster for the drama is stunning—easily one of the best we've seen in a long time.

The wait for Episodes 9 and 10 is way too long. When you watch the episodes as soon as they're released, it feels like you're waiting two days for the next one.

Anyone else getting tired of all the drama? I'm starting to get fed up with all of it.

Is it just me, or does it feel like Chinese dramas are much less filtered these days? You can actually see the actors' skin—their pores, little pimples, and even uneven makeup. The makeup in this drama isn't particularly good, either.

I also noticed what looked like two small holes in Neo Hou's ear. Is one of his ears actually pierced, or did I mistake them for moles?

Put the bottle down. Alcohol isn't water, you know.

The fairy Huang Xiaoyun never disappoints—her voice is absolutely magnificent.

Neo Hou was ill at the time of the dubbing in April, so they agreed to use a voice actor instead. AiMi is also dubbed.

Lee Hyeri days 😻🫶🏻

Hyeri, Hwang In Yeop, I’m so excited, but please… why another Monday–Tuesday drama? I honestly think that time slot is the worst.

Shin Ye-eun is often called one of South Korea’s most bankable actresses, but that's definitely up for debate. She might already be on her fourth or fifth flop, while playing pretty much the same type of character every time. Her success basically comes down to Revenge of Others and her villain role in The Glory. Since then, she's been on a streak of underwhelming dramas.

Hou Minghao's wavy-haired wig is absolutely incredible.

I've watched 4 episodes so far, and honestly, AiMi is absolutely incredible in this role. Her acting is really impressive. Hou Minghao is the perfect male lead because he has such a baby face despite his age, so he doesn't look older than her or even noticeably more mature when they're together.

It feels so weird seeing Neo Hou with that little fake goatee in Episode 2. It really doesn't suit him.

I just finished Episode 1. It was absolutely incredible. Hou Minghao completely stole the show—what an amazing performance!

Episode 1: HOLY SHIT, I screamed when I saw my boy Neo Hou. I wasn't expecting to see him again so soon, and it's such a treat—especially in a role that's so different from his usual ones.
