@Kiara, @Felice, you both are right that these two dramas are not comparable because they are of different genre. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy watching the other drama. I just feel the pace is too draggy there, especially with Li Yifeng's acting (sorry fans), and there are too many repetitive scenes like, he saves her and he goes into coma. This has been done multiple times, and each time he saves her (I like it, but ...), I go, "oh boy, here we go again." Whereas for this drama (The Autumn Ballad), it gives me the adrenaline run :)
In The Legend of the Phoenix, it was my first drama of Jeremy Tsui and I didn't like him very much in the beginning. But 10 episodes in, megod! I fell head over toe for him. He is good! He has a very unique gaze that you don't know it's good or evil.
For me, this series is definitely better than Mirror: A Tale of Twin Cities because the pace for this drama (The Autumn Ballad) is very good, whereas for Mirror: A Tale of Twin Cities is so slow that I even doze off :|
Also, male lead smolders so much it's attractive and female lead is so upfront about things it's refreshing.
Yep! That's what I love about the FL, so upfront, without beating around the bush which I hate because that can create a lot of misunderstandings, troupes in C-dramas. I love her "a-pain-in-the-a**" style. Makes me feel good when she gives people the on-your-face stuff :D
I love Zhu Yawen. He always acts like a dork, but immediately, he becomes lethal. His look and personality fit perfectly for the Liu Qing character. Great acting! Great story that is totally different from your regular boring fluffy rom-com.
I've just spent half of the first day of 2022 watching 8 episodes of this drama. What's wrong with me... Aww,…
Hahaha! You're not alone. Lately there are not many Chinese dramas I want to watch, so I said to myself, "Good, now I can watch less drama", then kaboom, this series airs. Now all my New Year's Resolutions are gone too XD
Zhu Yawen hasn't got that beautiful boy's face, so many people don't know how good he is. He's a great actor. Every time I watch his dramas, I fall in love with him each time.
