Ok I am almost halfway into episode 17. One question- what the heck was that conversation in the beginning - the…

🤣🤣🤣
There would be no drama then - that's pretty much the main exploration.. The switch from besties for 13 years (large part of at physically apart) to "some some feelz" to "feelz that is fast expanding" from puddle to pond to lake size waves lapping at the edges of their relationship.. Slowly ripening.. Ripe red sweet pomegranates anyone? Not apples that led to loss of platonic to something more corporal tinged.. 😂💞🥰
Nice to see we have fled from our dull forays into the same acre of Drama
Curious if he is ML material...or doomed to languish in Drama Hall of Fame for most memorable Support Cast... His VOICE l🤌🏽🤌🏽 Warm chocolate fudge!! Goo goo gah
Ouch!!! It is still such a tortuous wait for the balance eps to drop on Viki - Dramacool is also slow as a turtle
The FL shone in "The Love You Can Give Me" - although honestly her little kid stole my heart at first. TLYCGM was AdoRable dorky heart mushy fluff like tale that's more lemon meringue than lollipop
10/10 for me too - although I've just breathlessly rushed past Ep 8Wowoowwo🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
I cant make myself continue - too irked by it . Feel horribly cheated .. the anticipated delish core of the liqueur chocolate was dry .. missing ... and you know how that feels .. LOL

I hear you ;-p
I can get behind stories that aren't "romance" per se ..
However, what started me off on a 'false premise' is that it's TITLED "Mr and Mrs Chen" - one is set up right at the beginning . Even as it is a larger story canvas ( so rich and full of a cast that keep you interest and attention .. the DRAMA TEAM forgot that THE HEART of it needs to be about the OTP .. driving the core story .. Most importantly clarifying 'the inner life' of the OTP plus giving us clarity about where they stand with respect to each other. Sadly they are the least transparent to the AUDIENCE. Usually the audience is IN ON what's going on inside the OTP heads in such stories .. Here we know nada .. Are they EVEN a romantic couple?? Or Are they Platonic partners - caring friends? One would think the latter right? They sleep on the same bed like Wooden Logs!! There is ZERO sign of 'desire' towards each other .. ONLY GREAT concern about each other ..
Hello I worry and weep and laugh and hug and kiss my bestie -- I FEEL zero sexual desire .. THIS is what is lacking in the way they are shown.
MAYBE that's how it was planned .. MANY COP and DETECTIVE dramas have a Female Cop and Male Cop or Lawyer or something like that team up and CARE about each other .. AND it's made CLEAR in the drama .. they are PARTNERS and NOT in ANY romantic way.
LOTS of such drama where such CHEATING is not done.
That was my BIGGEST GRIPE .. and if it was planned to change the OTP arc from buddies who care to a growing romance and desire is lit up .. IT SHOULD have begin around Ep 14 or so.
Nada until E 22 .. I watched it mainly for the rest of the cast .. and the acting skills of OTP .. BUT I STOPPED - on the verge of dropping - because I came to watch with certain expectations .. and felt misled and taken on a ride I didn't ask to get on.

WHO IS THIS ACTOR????
Goodness - I thought only Dylan Wang could glue your gaze to the screen.. Now we have this face too AND with a strong whallop of acting skill.
Binge-after a crazy long dry spell of skimming past "meh" stuff
Flirting?
You'll get what I mean ;-p

- The Youth Memories
- City of Streamers
- Friend, Our Legend (Kdrama set in similar period time)
They too have 'romance' but it's embedded in a SOLID political climate and setting ..
