Their awkwardness is more natural, less contrived.

Maybe the romance portion does not appeal to all but this show with its highlight on the dubbing industry and Chinese ancient style music and culture is a gem. You may not appreciate it due to your lack of understanding but please don't call it trash. It's so rude to those of us who appreciate the show.

I'm so glad they didn't drag out LTG's insanity making him stupid or the show ridiculous unlike one recent drama. The stupid characters are just side side characters who don't irk me as much. And Ah Ying...I started disliking her but now the show has me liking her. This show is SO good!!!

I like the styling for the 2FL. Looks sporty and fashionable. I like to see how her romance with JM will develop. They definitely look more relaxed and less awkward together.

I like WNY but why do they have to make him into such an annoying character?

Right. I wouldn't even waste seaweed on this person.

Is this person asking to have seaweed slap?

Either wait or watch midway when it has 8 to 10 episodes.

Ep 1 was ok. Ep 2 was a bit bland. But ep 3 & 4 were awesome. So many laugh-out-loud moments in ep 3 & 4. Gyeong-tae with his stash of money and the seaweed fight were hilarious. The choice of BGM...really gold. And their sniggering and smirking at each other during some of those tiny moments were cruel but quite realistic.

He's a versatile actor. Why must he only do action? Says who?

The language is rather coarse...doesn't sound quality. But I'll watch cos of Lusi.

I don't have a problem with how he is written. I thought they gave a very good indication of why he's like that. So I can understand why he's so unstable given his very low self-esteem due to this parentage. I think it would be too easy to write him as strong and stable as Ruyi just cos he's her disciple. For the moment, he's weak and childish and is in need of some strong mentoring. He might improve once he learns to properly love others.

Watched up to ep 21. This show is very good and of good quality. Even LTG does not make me feel annoyed even though he's quite obsessed with the FL. You know how some shows take a downward spiral once a character like that appears and make the story toxic to watch. I hope they keep the direction such. But I fear it may turn tragic looking at the opening trailer.

Not to me. I enjoy both of them. But Hidden Love had more heart fluttering moments for me while this one is interesting because of the play of culture, food, and friendship. The romance of the main leads is quite reserved at the moment.

Same genre and some people may feel they're the same but to me, they're not quite. While both have love story but Hidden Love has more witty dialogues and one-liners while this one focuses on Chinese culture and the songs are beautiful. Not forgetting food is also a main topic in this drama.

They have chemistry of the awkward sort. Haha.

I like her in Back from the Brink and the Scent of Time. Perhaps she's more suited to play stronger / bubbly characters. She just can't play an introvert as well. It's obviously lacking and unnatural no matter how others are justifying her. As for singing, she's also dubbed but I feel she should emote better when pretending to sing but she isn't. I had problems watching the 1st 4 episodes because of her acting but after I identified it, I just ignored and moved on. The show is still enjoyable.

It seems eating is her coping mechanism when she feels frustrated or stressed.

I watch this show for her mainly but she's not as convincing as her other characters in other shows. Perhaps she's not suited to play an introvert. She ain't too bad but there's definitely room for improvement.

I thought I was the only one who felt their conversations were too awkward. I think Mo Qing Cheng is still okay but whenever Gu Sheng lowers her voice to speak to him, I feel she's acting too unnaturally. But other than that, I love the show.
