Oh lmao that is pretty frustrating.

to be fair, if I were JJ, YS would kinda irk me a bit. I've only really seen the first four episodes but YS was the one who got her kicked out and is misusing his authority to "protect her" (to me it feels like he's looking down on her). YS doesn't let JJ do what she wants while DL, while he has his own motives, gave JJ the opportunity to meet the guy who recommended her for her job and helped her with the mountain of work YS threw at her.

Haha, I find it very funny that the two c-dramas I started with are on this list: The Romance of Tiger and Rose and My Unicorn Girl. When I first started watching dramas, I would only ever watch k-dramas and had a bad misconception about the quality of c-dramas and even though I am Chinese, I found it weird to hear my mother tongue being spoken in media I would watch for fun. However, at some point, I had a k-drama burn out and couldn't find any of them enjoyable. Then I saw the Romance of Tiger and Rose in my feed and the dynamic between the male lead and female lead interested me a lot so I gave it a shot and became completely hooked. I fell in love with the clothing style and setting and it also helped improved my Chinese quite a bit. It will differ from person to person, but I would recommend to start with something short and light, specifically a rom-com that's around 24 episodes. A great majority of c-dramas are known to be quite lengthy and heavy politically so it might be quite a lot to take in for new viewers but their comedic ones are some of the funniest shows I've ever seen.

Lovely well-made guide!

happy birthday!!

My exact question, kdramas are guilty of it too. When My Love Blooms was full of both leads stalking each other.

Yeah I'm on episode 3 and I really don't like the male lead so far...

I think it really all comes down to personal preference and expectations. I rated it super high and I know that like "objectively" it's not a 10 but I really enjoyed watching it.

Gonna watch this for Chen Yao lol

Even though it's a slow romance, I don't think I've ever been more emotionally invested in a couple. Everything they do together is too cute and every moment between them is earned.

it's on iqiyi website with subs up to 20, it's also on dramacool with subs as well and completed

haha I watched the first few minutes of episode one and the female lead is probably the worst I've ever seen. I've read reviews that said she was desperate but I never expected it to be THAT desperate. I completely agree with the line "an embarrassment to the female gender"

Well they don't really get together until 22 but the last three episodes are the cutest thing I've ever seen

episode 20

haha she also had to dress as a guy in wu xin monster killer 2

Lee Bo Young is my favourite actress as well haha XD

Ge can have the same connotation as Oppa but I feel like Jian Jian was still referring to at least He Zi Qiu as brother.

I was personally okay with it lol. For one, I liked Wen Bing's confession here a lot more than ep 20 because it was a lot more emotional and heartfelt. Also, the conflict forced both Sang Tian and Wen Bing to expose all their secrets to each other and potential hidden agendas and in some way kick started the relationship? Also, it was really cute when Wen Bing found out about his mother's plan and just completely understood Sang Tian without her having to explain, really showcasing how much they understand each other. So in some way, the conflict is kinda necessary to actually test their relationship. Haha, maybe it's because I knew this plotline was coming from a mile away that I'm okay with it since it was in the trailer but they actually handled this cliche pretty well in my opinion, it only lasted for an episode. This is also just something I tend to notice, but when a drama begins the fluff way too early (especially for a romcom) a lot of the time it feels like the drama is losing steam/story and doesn't know where to go. We still have 2 episodes left for fluff though so there's still a lot of moments!

the misunderstanding is actually quickly resolved and the mother isn't pure evil, the resolution is actually really funny

episode 3
