Don't need to try to tear down Liu Xueyi to defend Ju Jingyi

yes they do have that dynamic where they're both not who they seem to be and later they get suspicious while pretending they believe

a fitting choice because the novel has a whole feminist theme with the FL reforming this sexist country

ying xiao hao (营销号) are social media marketing accounts that often spread inflammatory misleading information so it has a negative connotation

he did dub himself, he posted a photo when he was dubbing it https://weibo.com/1975672810/NgY3JatGy

I have watched the original drama this was adapted from and I don't think it is that similar. There might be changes for this one but based on the original, the story is about a big decision in this woman's life where she has two options and the drama shows the results of both choices. Road Home is a second chance romance. But here she chooses either her sweetheart or someone new if she moves away.

I think mostly the face swapping is the similarity. Another similarity is that both MLs are intelligent, loyal, and loving. This has a different tone and vibe but it is enjoyable too so you might want to try it anyway

for me, the drama gets better and better....and i even liked it from the start

her character is in another body

I agree that the new character, FL's friend, is the young master of the Silver Rain Terrace organization but I do not feel like he approached her with nefarious purposes. I feel like he really likes her. She saved his life and she said he was one of her only two friends in that city. He really does want to uncover whether Pan killed her.

It can still be recognized as an adaptation, unlike some other ones, even though they changed some details. I like some things they added but also dislike some changes. I recommend watching anyway, it is mostly cute.

oh good it grew on you too! glad to hear you enjoying it

yes the producers and directors included that because that was in the novel and it is a popular novel. might not be for you but doesn't mean other people won't like it 🤷

the dog house is actually used as the emoji for an episode on the schedule haha

I wish the drama had not changed #7, ML chose her illustration not knowing who created it. When I read the novel, I loved how he really appreciates her for who she is, her personality and her work and we could see it through their gaming relationship and him choosing her illustration out of hundreds.

* Novel ML is biased against FL because of his overbearing mother arranging them together. I think the drama did not make it very clear why he's so biased against her due to that single game they played.
* Novel ML did not see so much of FL's real personality so it made it more believable he did not recognize them to be the same
* Novel ML did not like mobile games and there was a snobby preference for AAA games over mobile games which is why FL said she didn't play their shared mobile game. He started the game only to play with his friend and then kept playing for her.
* Novel FL took a photo of the firework watching crowd, including ML in it and posted it to her social media to secretly wish him a happy new year. He later discovers this and sees that she deleted the post.

A few other changes...

I'm sad they changed the New Years portion too, including the part where she posted a New Years wish with a photo of the crowd with him in it. It was bittersweet to him when he discovered it later and learned that she had deleted it.

the beginning wasn't holding my attention either but i found myself binging after awhile, i think maybe around ep 7

the book for this drama is written by the same author as the book for Love Scenery, Qiao Yao
