I think you're right. Initially it seems the subs were bad so I won't be surprised if many just gave it up and rated it poorly.

58204 people rated this as 8.2 on Douban. And those who understand how Douban works know how critical the reviewers are. Anything above 7 is considered a very good rating.

Yet we have a rating of 8.1 here. And over at MDL, this is not a great rating. 😑😑😑

Agree. I couldn't even get past ep 1 of HCCC. But Meet Yourself is 🥰🥰🥰

Haha...I read the comment as a tongue-in-cheek made out of having to wait a few weeks for the drama. I also doubt FL has romantic feelings for SML. More like she gets involved in the case because it's a big case. Not sure though if she knows of ML's involvement at the onset. But I hope she'll come in and protect ML when the time is right. We'll see.

This deserves a much higher rating. At least 8.7.

Same feelings. I was contemplating if I should just drop it but decided to fast forward from ep 34 and only watched the last 2 episodes more or less normally. It was an interesting drama at the beginning. The story ain't bad too but it's too draggy.

A lot of eye candies with special power!

It's back!!!

Lol. Maybe that explains the death glare the ML gave FL when they were both in their uniforms. 😒 I keep wondering if that scene is at the beginning or at the end. Doesn’t make sense at the beginning.

I glossed over those scenes. Like you, I much prefer their cute bantering.

Have you watched Mysterious Lotus Casebook?

The way Esther straightens her leg and kicks her opponents. 😍😍😍 The only thing I don't like about this drama is the very thick makeup on our ML, ZLH. I cringed when he cried for his dad cos it definitely ruined his makeup. 🤪

I suppose a full release would be great but the few episodes a week before they became a couple had kept me wanting more. I thought it was smart they released everything when they became a couple. To me, the pacing of the drama was perfect as I enjoyed watching how the other characters were faking it in their journeys other than the leads. Very entertaining. I say 14 is perfect because I don't really want a S2.

Unfortunately, many probably dropped it cos the sub was bad initially.

Oh really? Didn't know Elvis wasn't the first choice but he is the perfect male lead. Eh...I like Xu Kai but I think Elvis is made for this role.

He was swoon-worthy in Siege in the Fog!

Such a great show. The ending was exceptionally satisfactory. It took me about 2 - 3 episodes to warm up to this drama but I'm so glad I continued. Both the leads have perfect chemistry and I found myself grinning many times over their interactions and dialogues. I love that the dialogues are so witty and meaningful. I've seen Elvis in other roles but he really shines in this one. Elvira is good too. 14 episodes is just nice. No unnecessary misunderstandings nor stupid tropes. I wish they'll put this on Netflix so that more people will watch it.

I usually avoid such genre for that reason...too gory. But I'll watch because of JCW.

I don't care who he ends up with as long as he stays alive till the end with little physical damage. This genre is very gory and I usually avoid watching cos I can't stand the intensity. Only watching cos it's JCW.
