Doesn't help BCE was so recent too!

It's the format that most people dislike. Personally, I love this drama cos the topics they tackle about relationships are so relatable.

I thought it was very realistic how they addressed this issue. She isn't that bad but I don't like her either. I don't really mind her getting together with Ji Xing's ex-bf but I think she should have at least attempted to come to the birthday party on her own. Both were at fault...she and Ji Xing's ex-bf. They should have been more discreet considering it was Ji Xing's birthday and not ruin it for her by coming together cos there was a chance for them to be seen together.

But then again, without seeing them together, I doubt Ji Xing would have advanced so quickly and be so bold with Han Ting. She wasn't exactly drunk then but I felt she was "triggered".

Yeah, quite similar so far. I think both characters are quite the same so can't be helped. But I find him harsher here. I can't help but laugh each time he trips or he's clumsy. Like I wanna say serve you right.

8 8 8 up up up and away! This drama is getting better and better!

This drama started out so well until the last few messy and somewhat ridiculous episodes. Good thing the ending was good. The only character I like from beginning to the end is Pei Wen Xuan. Seems that he's the only one who is sane and has a brain.

Everybody is a psycho. Only Pei Wen Xuan is normal. Am I the only one who feels the story development is getting out of hand?

Oh I see. But he's still quite popular in China going by the projects and the co-stars he has had. It's not a surprise that actors/actresses have hit and misses but I noticed he is particular hard hit on this platform. I have no idea who that former drama partner is but seems the fans are hardcore bias.

I noticed Xu Kai's dramas attract a lot of anti-fans and are always downvoted. Anyone knows the reason?

Consort Rou has a weird expression all the time. It's like she doesn't know whether to laugh or to cry. The actress was okay in Joy of Life but here, her expressions are really odd.

Happy to learn that you became a fan after watching him in BR. Actually, the show that made me his fan was Empress Ki, where he played a loser emperor. His portrayal from a weak, cowardly emperor to one who was obsessed and insane made me fell hard for his acting chops. Right now, I can't remember if I first watched him in Healer or Empress Ki, but TBH, I wasn't too enamored with Healer at first and had dropped it initially. For some reason, I watched it again and appreciated the drama better but it still doesn't rank as my favorite.

This drama is really quite good. We have trashy dramas starting above 8 and this one is still so low?

You're very sharp in your observation! Come to think of it, most people who question his choices are those who loved him in Healer. It's like that's the benchmark and anything outside that role is fail. TBH, I really liked him in Backstreet Rookie because it was a loser role and he portrayed it so well. The story wasn't top-tier but he made it fun to watch.

It was good. It was highly rated as 8.3 on IMDb. Welcome to Samdalri, too. It did quite well with an 8 on IMDb rating and made it to double-digit ratings domestically, which means the script must be doing something right. Just that for every good show, there will always be people who don't like it because of personal preference, so it's not a script issue.

Best to not even call her out by her name cos there will be curious people who will google and then contribute to her views. Just put short form or something.

I'm ok with him being tough and all but I thought in the latest episode, he was unreasonable. The alpha overdose doesn't work for me. I hope she toughens up and give it to him one day.

Not really liking ML's behavior in the latest episode although I understand he's trying to toughen FL up. But I'm secretly hoping she'll make him pay for this one day. Haha.

Is it his choice of script or just purely your taste and preference? His recent dramas have been doing well so the scripts can't be that bad. I know of so many shows which are blockbusters but I won't watch because I know I dislike that kind of plot but do I say the script is bad? It's just bad to me so it's just my personal preference.

He's the best because he owns the characters he plays. I can hardly recognize him sometimes. Even within the same genre, there's always something fresh from him.

This. I found her portrayal as a student too unreal...she does well for a late 20s, or someone in her 30s...but as a student? I tried to get pass that stage but her first romance really turned me off. I had to drop it but cos I wanted to watch her with Wallace, I came back to watch recent episodes on FF mode. This show is far from Meet Yourself which was too excellent. Even the Kdramas in the same genre couldn't surpass.
