still.... the idea of ZhangLinghe not being her first man ... grrh!

What has gotten into #Jung Hae In ??

Going from Something in the rain/ one spring night / snow drop/ DP --> average or below average shows (for his level) - Love Next Door/ Our Sticky Love etc .... and now this drama plot doesn't even sound good....

Netflix/ Disney has ruined K dramas, The only reason C dramas are still good is because Netflix/ Disney has not entered into making C dramas .... (they should never be allowed)

Yes. I found it - and posted it above too .... along with my thoughts and interpretation....

Overall - I feel like the author/ story has definitely been written favoring FL more than ML and infact punishes him for what he has been honestly verbalizing - including his reasons to believe why he can not consider dating/ marrying her (the whole communication gap)

hahaha!

I did not watch the drama - where in the novel he rejected her idea of "normal relationship" - after 4 years - I extracted the novel to a pdf - so we might not be able to reference page numbers ?

Edit: I found it :-D


again - it was wrong time to bring up that topic - he was brewing with anger that she was also entertaining Sun Yu simultaneously (Again - why in the world she couldn't tell him that she was helping her friend - whats there to be afraid of - he didn't even know she was learning French on Sundays ..... so whats he supposed to infer.? She really has a communication problem - just like he has a harsh attitude )

Luan Nian finally spoke. He said, "I hope you calm down. Because I don’t intend to change the current state between us. I’m not prepared to take another step forward."

"Why? I thought after four years together, many things have changed. At least it should be deeper than when we started." Her voice and hands trembled slightly, but she didn’t notice.

"Things have changed, but not to the point where I feel I should date or marry you. You’re still young, not firm about anything. Even though you say you want to be with me now, tomorrow you’ll still go to a blind date event to meet different men. I don’t want to date someone like that."

"I was just helping Sun Yu."

"Is that so?" Luan Nian asked her, "Are you sure? You were just helping Sun Yu, so you go to blind date events every week; you just wanted to spend time with friends, so you’re living ambiguously with a man. Sorry, I think we’re better off as friends with benefits."

Agree to some of the comments you made.

I read the novel. She ends their relationship on a whim saying " I want to end the dirty, ugly, disgusting relationship between you and me"

Oh boy!

Forget about all the stuff - I would not have reconciled ever if my partner named the relationship Dirty, ugly, disgusting - I know what they had going was not conventional - but this is different level - after he agreed to be her boyfriend and after he made so much efforts to tone down (even if it's not much for her) .....

Yet, he reconciled - only to get dumped in the most unexpected way (even after he told her - let's talk after I come back - is that not communication rigth there???)

The only thing I agree is - he is harsh and you are right about - not wanting to get coached whensome adds insulting words - but he gave her high rating, encouraged her in many other ways...

In real life, I probably would not have dated a domineering guy like him - but I can't help to see his "acts of service" or show affection and care through action

Other than the S...X part, I don't know if he got the level of emotional match with her ....I think it was incompatible from the beginning. If I were him, I wuldn't have left my "going" life and shuttled to Harbin - thats just me .... .

I am not biased , but I got irritated a lot by this ML character - hahaa!

So I am curious (or should I say confused ?)

#ZhangLinghe plays Crown Prince Song Ling / Ye Ting Yan, a close advisor to the Emperor

OR the Crown Prince Song Lan ? {as the story says she marries Song Lan}

I kinda think Crown Prince Song Ling - but her marrying Crown Prince Song Lan is throwing me off here :D :D

I don't want ZhangLinghe to be a second fiddle - haha!

I am probably a minority here - I completed the novel and I feel like FL somehow trying to compensate for not having a personality through expecting ML to be someone who he is not. She is the one who shows him fifty shades of grey in private and acting aloof and not opening up to him which caused him to feel like he is a "accessory" to her. She does not see his acts of service.? he cooks for her, he takes in the dog even though he is obsessed with cleanliness, he even watches her dog while she is out, he is so protective of her, he dropped his vacation plans to go on a roadtrip with her - so many so many examples. What has she done for him in return? She does not communicate most important stuff with him - even when he directly asked her multiple times and even though she shocks him when she goes public with allegations - he still puts that all aside and goes on attacking the guy. So I don't understand what her problem is. He is strong and he is in my opinion a lot more logical than her. He has never shied away from being honest, transperant about his opinions..... even when she did not like them. He never abused her or trapped her - I m baffled at her inability to communicate - example - Why the heck she never communicated that she does not like handbags? is he expected to "READ" her mind ? how is this his fault. In the novel he at mentioned - I don't know what you like / what to get - so I got a hand bag. That was honest in my opinion.

She herself believed getting into that company was a fluke or pure luck. He was open from Day 1 , but he also supported her. He always coached her and made her a better person. I feel like the author was trying to prove a point around _____ ??? I don't understand.

I have not watched the drama yet, I absolutely love Jing Bo Ran and I know he would have aced the role. I want to wait until all episodes come out on Netflix.

But I do not like how the author depicts ML - despite him being open and honest about this relationship from the beginning. If she had communciated with him about her feelings, he might have realized that he is developing feelings for her and perhaps made both of thier lives easier.

Also, the novel was so explicit - almost felt like I was reading soft p....n - :-D (at least to me ) !

Looking for translated novel. Any leads ?
TIA

I am waiting to watch all 20 through 29 all at once.

But I read the novel - OH MY GOD!! What a cheesy one.... There is no way they can even depict 1/4th of it in the drama without getting censored. It was too raunchy reading that novel. .... and I was imaging Zhou KeYu in every single scene.... I didn't care so much for the FL.... she managed with a limited set of emotions.... but ZKY - he's definitely a uprising , noteworthy young star....

thank you. I am in PST.

what time in USA does episodes get released in iQIYI ?

I want to watch it - but only if it has the "Boran" type insane chemistry and scenes. Not interested otherwise.

Help me !

I think they are talking about Blonde hair - not white hair

Blonde - Chen Feiyu totally owned it. He looked badass in that. I am yet to watch Dazzling - so no comments on Li Yun Rui.

White hair - Li Yun Rui rocked it in Blossom. Also, I am looking forward to seeing Zangh Linghe in the road to glory with some white hair (seen in promo videos)

someone decided drop after first episode and chose to give a 1

she/ he must know not to give a rating unless they watched 1/3 of the episodes….

thats where i kinda grew impatient…. they show FL has smart woman …. but she doesn’t even realize how genuine ML is being with her and he doesn’t even try to hide it… from the beginning

agree. i watched it for BWS

he showed a lot of emotions with eyes and the crying scenes where he had to show his vulnerability- I liked them too… on the other hand - IU didnot have any range of emotions to display (maybe just the script). IU being senior than BWS - I also felt like chemistry was _____

am I the only one thinking IU performance was not on par ? I liked Byeon’s action.
Just my opinion

Gosh! - this is entertainment. Just watch it for entertainment!
If you like it - watch . If you don't - move on!
