I’m gonna be honest (don’t attack me): I usually can’t stand Chen Zhe Yuan and don’t watch his shows (he’s just not my type). Call me shallow but I’m not gonna waste my time watching a drama if I don’t like the way the leads look (even if they’re good actors) because there’s just so many shows out there to choose from, I can watch something else. But I started watching this for Li Qin … and I’m getting so converted… I guess I never saw him in a historical before, and he’s just so beautiful with long hair like wth

I agree it’s very cringey at times but at least it’s not all the time. I had to brainwash myself that they were doing it intentionally for comedic purposes since there were some other pretty funny moments

I really enjoyed this drama (other than the ending which felt a bit rushed) but I wish there was no romance in it because it doesn’t need it and they had ZERO chemistry. I mean that’s the worst most unbelievable cp I’ve ever seen.

Worst first sentence of an article I’ve ever read. Don’t assume your readers have any clue what you’re talking about

Maybe they’re airing them now since it’s the national holiday / mid autumn festival, and people would be too busy to watch them before?

I was thinking the same! He was so skinny in You Are My Hero, it made his character unconvincing. But I remember he was getting hate from fans who were mad he was trying to gain weight and muscle :(

Ok I finished the ep and now have a feel for the vibe of this show—and I’m loving it! I was expecting a typical crime thriller, but this is so much more fun (so far)

I thought this was a serious show, but the first (half??!!) of the first episode is so over the top and cheesy I can’t take it seriously 🤣 I’m still having fun tho so shall continue…

Unpopular opinion but I think it would have been more impactful if it had a sad ending. Or at least showed us the happy ending! The way they ended it is kinda the worst of both worlds imo

It’s almost as if the drama isn’t set in a western country.

As of ep 9, which I said I watched up until, the ML is not aware the FL also traveled back. But go ahead and defend it

Well I got up to ep 9 and none of what you said is apparent. They really should put it upfront otherwise it feels gross

I more or less liked this drama until I found out he’s 8 years older than her, and he was clearly into her when she was still in high school. Gross.

Just saying… I can see why she fell for Yi Tianyu back then. 😏 Been forever since I’ve had SML syndrome, but you know what? I like him and his dad!

I started watching this expecting it to be deep and moving and beautiful based on the comments and reviews, but I think - just like Korean society in general - it is lacking in real depth. Dropped.

No idea wth you’re saying.

You’re sick if you think bromance is flirting or gay. Not everything is sexual. Men can in fact be friends and care about and love each other as friends. Stop making everything perverted. I’m not talking about this drama. I’m addressing your comments about bromance in general.

Same! I was so invested in S1 and now I can’t even bring myself to watch this. Still debating if worth my time
