I originally thought that too but regardless of DW's acting skills, he still gained a ton of fans and love thanks to his character TSJ anyway. So I don't think he needs that exposure. And this whole thing coincidentally coincides with the Tencent/DW and YZ/DW issue. I guess we'll never know...

I was thinking the same thing. As much as I wouldn't mind TSJ being cut out :D it doesn't make sense for Tencent to do that or even replace his actor. That'd result in hysterical TSJ/DW fans and Tencent/LYF losing a substantial chunk of support.

Rumors say that Deng Wei won't be in season two? Everything is already done and filmed though hmm... Maybe they'll still keep DW/TSJ in the story but won't promote him as much.

Congrats to the team for finishing filming! 🥳

Because it's historical genre and promotions can take several months, I think we won't be able to see this drama until early to mid 2025.

i absolutely can't wait to watch this~ both cheng lei and zhou ye look so good 😍

Yes, I agree it was nice to see a drama like this with no major conflict. But it makes the show very boring and unrealistic - in my honest opinion. Plus, specifically for this show LMLMV, the lead's dynamic and FL's childish/passive personality and mumbling voice annoyed me so much that I couldn't properly enjoy the show 😭 (Note: That's not to blame Zhou Ye or Tan Jianci though. They're just acting according to script. I already hated these stuff when I read the novel).

lmao i really wish, too 😭

his smile is so cutee

why did it have to end like that.... they didn't explain what happened to him i need answerss

if they're going for a sad ending then okay... but at least make it satisfying by giving us closure... and what happened to yeondoo and hyunjin 😭

Haha that's interesting 😂 you should watch the dramas as is. Spoiling can ruin some of the excitement :')

Also btw I think you should put your comment in a spoiler! cuz not everyone know this

Oh noo I'm sorry I gave you that spoiler 😭 I probably should've mentioned that since not a lot of people talk about him and what happens to him... I also got spoiled about his end through the LYF facebook page

No problem. Yes it's very sad but definitely worth watching!

Ahh I always keep forgetting cuz they're gonna exclude that in the drama 😭

Well- just like nathsketch, let's pretend that something also happened to Left Ear and Miao Pu, and they can't protect Xiaoyao anymore lmaoo

There's no point in having someone who loves you and treats you well if they can't even protect you... 👀👀👀

"keep going" 🤣🤣 lmao if I did, we'd be here all dayyy

Well.. you made it. Congrats! I know it wasn't easy. 🫡

As for recommendations...

If you like nostalgic romances, you can check out First Love: Hatsukoi (2022).
Flower of Evil (2020) has a mix of romance and thriller/crime.
And this one is kinda an oldie but forever one of my favs, the movie Werewolf Boy (2012). Warning: it's a pretty sad story.

Some historical cdramas if you're interested
- The Starry Love (2023)
- Love Between Fairy and Devil (2022)
- Lost You Forever (2023) (season 2 will be coming soon) (of course I have to include this wherever I go LOL)

Omg yess the FL had zero character development 😭 She was bold sometimes, but then eventually resorted back to being "shy" (which seemed more submissive and passive to me than actually shy) and childlike as you said.

I also wished there were more scenes of her singing and playing instruments. After getting into a relationship, her personality/life was basically reduced to being just a girlfriend. I can feel that ML has way more love and passion for music (and food lol) than FL. Now that's ironic, considering ML is supposed to be the one voice acting and singing as a hobby while FL the one pursuing music professionally.

And I agree with your last point, though I believe the purpose of all those side characters was just for them to serve the main couple, not for you to actually connect with them. You know, like fanfics... "Y/N and [insert your crush's name] are the best OTP!!"

Okay I think I'm gonna get jumped if I continue roasting this drama ahahaha

That's what I'm hoping for too! But part of me also thinks they might go for a more realistic approach and give us a sad ending, or even a neutral ending where they end on good terms... cause that's just life. Some couples can work it out, some can't. Love isn't the only thing a relationship needs to survive.

"Only the worst ones survive." Thanks to everyone who sacrificed for them to get their so-called happy ending, of course... If something ever happens to Cang Xuan, the only good and capable person left, then it's all over for them.

It's okay, you're not alone. I'm actually also one of the people like you who h̶a̶t̶e̶d̶ didn't enjoy it. But I try to be neutral when it comes to these comments haha.

I was thinking they could've added an arc about ML's relationship with his parents. Maybe he resents his parents for not being around a lot? Then later, with the help of FL (make her do something for him for once), finds out his parents are regretful and actually do love him, they reconicle, etc. Cliche af lol but I don't know- just anything to make the drama more interesting. They had 33 episodes and didn't do anything with it.

That's exactly how this drama is supposed to be. All the characters live in a happy bubble where nothing can go wrong. There is no antagonists to defeat and no major problems to solve.

I guess it all eventually comes down to personal preference. Some people like this type of drama because it's a breath of fresh air compared to others that have too many angst and misunderstandings.

I also love Tan Jianci and have grown to like Zhou Ye thanks to this drama, but I agree that the script is the problem here. 🥲 Since you're not gonna finish, and if you're interested, you could search up LMLMV clips on Youtube just to see what coupley things ML and FL do.
