okay so i am on to the first 7 minutes of the show and i am already annoyed. why would you stubbornly not let…
That introduction could have been done better. I blame a little bit of her acting and the directing for not communicating this scene better. Keep going, it gets better! I will elaborate in a separate post with mild spoilers.
I was put off at first too, but the FL is not rude after the first episode. She's more likable starting with the…
I hope you like her better in later episodes. It was a strange choice to make such a bad first impression of the female lead, her rudeness to her family, her friend, and to the male lead all in the first episode. She is a much better friend than they show in 1.
Apparently the author was accused of plagiarism by esports fans for using some of the real esports gamers id and…
I was having trouble finding any details about plagiarism but that word kept being thrown around. There were conflicting complaints about both drawing inspiration from real players but also changing their personalities and actions. I read claims that the character Xu Tailun is modeled after a real LoL player called Faker but it seems to me like the player's name and behaviors are changed so it's not slander and it's not actually copying his life story, so I find the claims confusing. It did seem like another AO3 situation to me as well.
I love Zhao Yi Qin from Accidentally in Love and really look forward to his future dramas as the main lead. Though…
Maybe try another episode or two to get more interaction between the leads before you give up. But maybe this show just isn't your style and that's okay too. Have you watched him in https://mydramalist.com/33795-wait-my-youth ? He's the lead there and it's a modern youth drama like Accidentally in Love.
I liked the story when I watched the original movie and love the lead actors in this remake, Eleanor and Chen Xing Xu, so I hoped to like this movie but it was pretty disappointing.
The leads didn't get enough screen time together to develop a romance or for the audience to care about them. The special effects were poorly done so the fight scenes were boring and felt like they took up too much time. Go in with low expectations.
One positive, it was nice to see Chen Xing Xu in this innocent bumbling role which is such a stark contrast to his role in Goodbye My Princess.
I was going to watch this, unfortunately, I'm not a fan of the lead actor. He was the weakest F4 member in Meteor…
Maybe you could still give the show a try because so far the first 10 episodes focuses more on the FL's own development than romance and it does a good job with it.
Admittedly, he's the weakest one in this show too. I thought maybe it was because his character is the most cliche and not well developed yet but it doesn't help that he doesn't have the acting skills to make something more of it
I just started watching, and I don't know if it's just me but I really dislike the FL. The actress who plays her…
Her character is really annoying in the first two episodes (I don't know why the screenwriter chose to present her that way) but she doesn't act like that after
I am on episode 1. And the piece of music that they called "tasteless noise and funny" at around 35:00 of this…
Oh no! I hate when dramas are xenophobic
Edit: OK, I've watched the show now. The screenwriters could have chosen their words more carefully but they aren't saying it is bad music. The lead characters have different taste. The FL likes the music and is playing it for her friend because she thinks it will cheer her up. It may be ignorant that she thinks the song is funny. The male lead character doesn't like the song but I don't think we're supposed to necessarily agree with him. The guy driving him wanted to listen to that song and thinks the male lead is a "lifeless antique" because he doesn't appreciate it.
If he ends up having multiple wives coS he is the crown prince, I’m gonna throw hands :(
This doesn't look like the serious historical kind, I'm guessing he won't have multiple wives...they usually don't in these modest budget sweet romance dramas
