I'm on ep 4. and don't know whether to continue or stop. Is it worth continuing, anyone? I mean I neither like nor dislike it so it's hard to judge. So far what I like is the overall acting of all characters. The acting is not the best, but it seems everyone is doing an okay job in their respective roles and that good enough to me. The friendships are so cute and adorable and there's chemistry between the leads. Another positive is this drama fulfills the nostalgic feeling of e-sports dramas I have been having lately. And that's it. What makes me hesitant to continue is I am not wowed by anything so far. The story, characters, set- up etc is not new so I don't feel the excitement. Sigh...What shall I do...
Started and so far binged 8 ep. And OMG what a treat this is. I would call this a slice of life drama because it has so many relatable issues and things that happens in real life. I really admire RX's strong-willed and perseverance personality because she trully needs it. Her mom is the worst and her friend seems to be all over the place so trully she doesn't have a lot of support except for ML. And I already love the chemistry between the leads. They just click and complement eachother as RX and QX. Always have been a fan of FL but never of ML until now so well done.
After the first 5 episodes of this drama I’m grateful for my parent to the moon and back, the mom of Ruoxin…
I swear her mom acts like she is possessed. She makes me appreciate my mom who is literally a saint compared to her. Omg! My life would be doomed if I had her as a mom...
Wait, What.... Is it true... I just pray that the original cast return even though I know the chance of this happening is close to nil...sigh It is extremely rare in Cdramas to have the same cast in the se/prequels which makes me wonder why they continue with the drama at all. Because it will never be the same. Nowonder I consider The Eternal Love a rare gem (and my one true love) for having 3 seasons with the same cast...
I made it through the first episode but it was sooo bad. The writing, directing and editing was awful and I already…
And the example I gave was by no means the model of Seduction. I said when I think of Seduction, these women come to mind as they are quite well known by everyone of every age range (except new borns, hehe). I can use my next door neighbour as an example but would you know her??? And yes you're right. Seduction of back then and now is different. But the thing is being a seducer is an individual skilled act. Some will show Seduction and it looks like madness and some will do it and it looks like magic. And in this drama it looked like cocky, that's all. I respect every comment here and never point anyone's as "unwarranted". Which is why I got a bit peeved, no offence.

Thanks for your comment but calling mine "unwarranted critique"??? What makes yours warranted again... I didn't say FL should have been Marilyn or Audrey and neither did I say she should show seduction like in the medieval era. If that's what you get from my entire comment, then good on you. I simply said that FL lead act of seduction is not done well and looks cocky.

Yes and Yes, Cdramas always fail miserably to portray the seduction scenes. They forget that pretty or plain beautiful is not equal to seductive. Being able to be seductive is due to an aura and act one portrays. It is certainly a skill and not everyone is able to do well. The FL can't seduce a thing, unfortunately not because she aint beautiful, nope but her presentation and acting is not good enough for ot so it makes it look cocky. She could be good in other roles though. When I think of Seduction, people like Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn comes to mind....huh And thanks, for mentioning PFAEML drama because, I couldn't get past ep. 2.
i just read this news and feel so disappointed. i've been waiting for years to watch the last season of ode to…
Exactly! Why call it Ode to Joy 3 if you're going to change everything. Did they run out of names for a drama. What a way to anger fans of the prev. Seasons and cast.
I am not happy with this news unfortunately. Ode to Joy was one of those dramas that I went in for the story but the cast made me stay. Season 1 and 2 was amazing and will forever remember the brilliant cast. Sadly, I am familiar with most of the cast here for season 3 and I am not a fan of their acting (not to say they are not brilliant) so I don't think it will work. I will still watch ep 1. with no expectation and who knows, I might like it. I wonder what happened to the OG cast...Couldn’t they have just reunite for old time sakes???
Wow, it's raining Trailers lately and my anticipation just gets bigger. Bring in Noona Romance...Yeah Buuut 40 ep. Hmm I don't know how to feel about that.
Just saw the Trailer and Oooh the swoon. The trailer just called me single, imagine that... One thing, I'm confused about is Reba's voice. I mean what happened? It sounds cartoonish...is it really hers?
Omg! Where to even begin?? I don't know. Talk about a woman's world, Tan'er fighting for her husband, A kiss spell and other hilarious hijinks...LoL The chemistry between these two is 10x electrifying. I swear Even if they recycle this drama and have 37 versions with these two, I will happily watch.
9/10 - A Rare Gem This is one of those dramas that come once in a lifetime but leaves an imprint... From start to finish, this story was captivating that I couldn't bear to skip a scene just in case I miss out. Seeing Dong Na's journey in the employment world and her coming out victorious still puts a smile on my face. I was cheering her on from the get go as I could relate to all her struggles especially coming from a lower socioeconomic background. Dong Na proved that with Hardwork, perseverance and determination, you will surely succeed and I'm so happy to have witnessed that. Ofc she wouldn't have done it without her nosy, talkative but utterly lovable mother, her all time supprter Gu Fei and other colleagues some who even became like family. I was in for Mother daughter duo and I got another little surprise in the name of Gu Fei. This man (where can I get someone like him again...LoL) went through a lot but his unwavering support and love for Dong Na was just beautiful. Even though their romance was not at the core of the drama, their support for one another was. Already miss this drama and will definitely rewatch if I need an energy boost.
One of the best slice of life dramas in the past year. Love the rhetorical exchanges. Am so in love with Vicky…
Yeah Vicky's Acting is formidable and to think she is still in adolescence... I wonder what I was doing in my adolescent stage...certainly nothing as impressive as her....hehe
The end with GF & DG conversation on the rooftop was heartfelt. I’d say this drama is easily rewatchable. Although…
Absolutely said it ALL. I will definitely join you with a bowl of popcorn to watch Dong Na and Gu Fei just chatting. Their dialogues are the best indeed. That last ep. was what they call: Saving the very Best to last. It was sooo beautiful and once again reminded me why I fell in love with this drama. I never skipped any scene until the end (it's a record for me this year) and now I'm already feeling the nostalgia. The rewatch factor is High for this one. Oh and I enjoyed our Commentary on this drama too, so Thank you :)
