Remind me a bit of My Journey to You. Quite intense and thrilling. I like that it is nicely wrapped up, and the entire time I’m watching I couldn’t figure out who the villain(s) were until almost everything was revealed, who is good and evil in the family, and what are the backgrounds of each character. This is also my first drama of Li Ge Yang, and I was so mesmerized by his good looks and acting.
If any of us were to transmigrate into a story and assuming all MLs are not villains, I believe any of these would do ❤️:
- A classically handsome, intelligent scholar, slightly reserved and proper, no doubt will be a government official someday. Discussing books and painting together are part of everyday life. Gazing lovingly, unspoken understanding, and comfortable silence.
- A dashing, handsome dandy heir to a marquisate. A bit immature and arrogant due to his privileges and upbringing, but not a mean person. Playful banter every day, doing fun things together, living in luxury.
- A mature, “hot” established minister. Makes your heart skip a beat every time you look at him. Serves the people yet is also a ruthless warrior. Protector, intelligent partner, quite loving in private.
Finished all 4 episodes and I feel like the FL has chemistry with all 3 MLs! Winwin’s role here really reminds me of his role in Perfect Match. Hoping to see him as the ML in this kind of arrogant nobleman role someday.
I will never look at the rain the same way again 😭 😭 😭
There was this sense of perpetual sadness while watching this, even more than MJTY, but I couldn’t stop because it was just so good! The story, the cast, the dark aesthetic… everything really pulled me in. This is the only drama where I never skip the ending credit scenes, kind of making up for all the gloomy moments.
I especially loved the friendships between the six of them, the bromance between ZYZ & ZYC and also ZYZ & LL, the sibling relationship between PSJ & PSH, and the brotherhoods of ZYC & BJ and YL & BJ. The only minor thing that didn’t quite work for me was ZYZ & WX’s relationship, I know FOF doesn’t focus heavily on romance but I just didn’t feel much chemistry between them. I also found ZYC’s supposed unrequited love completely unconvincing
The OSTs and BGMs are absolutely out of this world. Honestly, I don’t think anything can top this for me ❤️
Just started FOF after finishing VOS, which I’ve considered my favorite drama of 2026 so far. But after reading some comments suggesting that some, maybe many of its ideas were taken from FOF, I might have to revisit my rating once I finish this 🤔
This is my favorite drama of 2026 so far, across all genres!!! Very layered and complex, making my brain hurt but I was so addicted till the end ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve previously watched Chen Duling, Zeng Shunxi, and Tian Jiarui’s dramas, but this is my first drama of Ju Jing Yi and Yan An, and they are both so impressive. I know what some viewers said about the four main leads’ screentime, but honestly I never felt like anyone was sidelined. To me, all four are truly main leads and even five if you count Yan An. They are equally important to how the story unfolds, and no matter how much screentime they have, it doesn’t diminish their roles or acting at all.
I watched this because of Tiktok. Pretty good overall. About the ending:
Obsessed ML who treated other women like garbage in the past ended up with the FL, who not only forgives him but also accepts him (and kinda turns obsessively in love with him too?). I’ll just say they found their person in each other. Thank God it’s fiction, otherwise no sane woman would choose this type of man 😅
