Okay so I'm very frustrated by the writing and acting...
Ep 11 and I'm annoyed by the ML. This day is supposed to be the most important one where he can finally prevent his dad from getting into an accident and yet he runs off to meet a girl?? He's supposed to be this intelligent ultra responsible kid but he's acting like an idiot. I'm so annoyed. He's been trying to keep his dad safe this whole time and now at THE MOST important moment he runs off to see a girl. Horrible writing. So inconsistent. It makes me not want to finish it.
And the ML and FL have no chemistry. Could be the actors. Could be the writing. But it's probably both. The ML also overacts like crazy. The dad has to be this obnoxious teenager but he manages to portray it without overdoing it. The ML on the other hand always uses such intense expressions where they aren't needed. And his crying scenes are so over the top, I don't feel bad for him, I'm cringing.
The mom and dad are the best part of this show by far. Acting and writing
I wish there was less Sekyeong/Eunyu screentime. Their backstory and characterizations just aren't making me care about them at all. The ML and his parents are so good, I wish it just focused on them. Especially the mom. I'm on ep 7 and it feels like they've barely shown her at all but every time they do I love her.
I don't know why kdramas now a days have so many mixed reviews. Some rate it 9.5 while some have rated as low…
I don't think it's the quality of dramas because there's always been good and bad dramas. It's that the demographic has shifted significantly. The pandemic and streaming sites like Netflix brought in a massive new audience, with A LOT of really young people on mydramalist. Even just compare it to 2018 and the ratings are insanely different. 8.5+ rated dramas used to (usually) always indicate a well done show, but now it's impossible to tell. Same with lower rated ones.
Douban tends to be a better ratings site. Not always, but it's more accurate than here.
I'm actually really excited for this to finish airing so I can start it. I don't trust ratings on this site ever and a dumbass ML in a cdrama alone is rare but a XIANXIA? This sounds so fun
There's a rumor Yang Mi will work with Zhang Ziyi as SFL. Zhao Liying wanted the role so she dated the director…
Every single comment you make (on your multiple accounts where you interact with yourself) is about ZLY. You ever get tired of being a psychopath? After the first deranged paragraph no one pays attention, you're not accomplishing anything.
Its not the actresses that choose to do this, it's the directors fault. The actual industry has to change.The…
ZLS can to some extent but I don't think YSX can get away with it at all. She looks grown because she is grown, it's so annoying. She's a major reason why I disliked LBFAD so much.
Xianxia dramas Needs to take like. a year for post production and effect to generate a better CGI and all. But…
I'm someone who rated it lower not because of the ending at all. As soon as they entered the dream arc the drama relied on cliches and lost all of the amazing momentum that they had built up until that point. The first ten episodes were so good and then the rest was pure mediocrity.
massive age gap? they have MAYBE a 5-7 year difference in this drama. MingLan is 8 in episode 1 and he's maybe…
The people kissing in your profile picture literally have a nine year age gap you psycho. And Lee Jae Wook is way younger than ZLY was when she married FSF
There are a BUNCH of dramas on this list that didn't air in 2023. A lot of 2022 dramas like 2521 and The Glory but then also random older ones like Mr Sunshine and Goblin
Been enjoying it but big oof to the end of ep 7. Why do dramas feel the need to do dumbass cliches?? SML finds the ML and FL hugging, like fucking whyyyyy? It doesn't make me feel bad for him because I've seen this stupid cliche in so many dramas. It's dumb. Please writers. I beg you to be more original and come up with different means to try and make the audience feel something.
