what debate

one

but she have the secret butcher sword technique so

It's not X (em dash) it's Y

But he repented to the Buddha and wrote stuff in his own blood and pinky promised he'd never kill again! He's going to turn over a new leaf and be a good boi from now on!

YOU: I wonder what kind of love this is which viewers are loving

ME: Red-flag love

YOU: STFU!

Well that escalated quickly.

Helped a lot, this is not the kind of plot i'd have the patience for if it wasn't just all laid out. Now I know what I'm getting into. Went back to watch slower, now on ep 3, but actually watching this time lol

ok I had to read that like 5 times, but i think i got it. That's so meta and deep, hm. tysssssm <3

I need help...

I'm being an impatient watcher because POJ has taken up a significant portion of my brain and attention powers.

So I watched FL take off her robe and say "marry me, because i've already lived this reality once, and it ends bad for both of us if we don't get married" or some sh*t.

And then it did like a rewind to the prev life and I HATE time skip ANYTHING, ughhh so I was like skip ahead skip ahead skip ahead jesus how long is this past life flashback anyways, one ep, two eps, four eps.... and I was like did I miss where Reality A came back into the story?

How long does the flashback of Reality B last?

Somebody help me figure out what's going on so I know what i should watch slow, and what i should skip. I HATE TIMESKIP but I LOVE ZI XIAN

I don't care what anybody says, his performance in Love and Bid Farewell was one of the best things I've ever seen. He's the hardest working ML in the biz, he will do literally any size project. And sometimes he doesn't give it his all. But when he is focused, he is capable of amazing amazing performances. I want to see him cast in bigger projects more often.

Amen to that. I'm not too proud to dumpster dive, baby. This one is full on trash, but Zhi Jie's possibly best performance is sitting in it, whaddya know. He's another one that needs to be cast in bigger and beefier projects. He did good on this one. So ironic that his best role is in his worst drama. Kinda weird.

Its red-flag ML girls like me that love this ML. There are so many rl reasons why, but we could just chalk it up to you probably having a more healthy well adjusted childhood/love life than me, which is a good thing. We red flag lovers our wiring is all messed up i think.

but og was like "I like FL with 2ML" so what planet did we land on. Deng Kai was SO GOOD they have to keep his screen time to a minimum or else it just turns into the Deng Kai Show, his charisma is so off the charts, and I was stoked because I don't usually see him paired with someone he has good chemistry with, and he REALLY did with Snow Kong. Gotdang, it's too bad his character is literally actual villain.

good lord, i have to work. i put myself to bed early and force myself to go to sleep. it's not easy thats for sure

good point, who is the 2ML lol

I feel the oxytocin part of the chemistry and not the dopamine part.

But the way i see it is this... chemistry happens when the actors themselves respond to eachother in RL. Well, actors and actresses are cast for their roles, they give it their all. But you can't MAKE that chemistry happen no matter how good of an actor you are because it's personal for them.

Getting magical chemistry is just double-bonus and you can't EXPECT that from actors.

Sometimes a story is good BECAUSE of the chemistry alone, it elevates sometimes even a shitty script. But in this case it's the other way around, this drama has literally EVERYTHING going for it, it's doing next to nothing wrong.

And quite frankly, if they DID have the dopamine chemistry with eachother, it'd probably be too racy for someone like my ma, or my gay friend i watched 5 eps with the other day, or my kids when we go out to pho and watch an episode.

Someone like Yan Zi Xian has mad chemistry with many of his FL's because the actor in RL is a very sensual and emotionally accessible person.

Ling He used to be a friggin engineer.

He's just not the kind of person to let himself have chemistry with just anyone. He's a STEM person, he has a critical eye and he is naturally reserved. He had that chemistry with Bai Lu, and he just doesn't have it for Xi Wei.

Whereas Mu Ran is a honey-pie. And he'll probably rock his next project.

also think so

salty!

Director is fresh off of Lost You Forever lolll. At least this time it's just ONE 2ML.

awww that is so sweet! POJ the drama that brings us together 😭❤️❤️🥰

It's easy to go from k- to c-, but idk it would be rough going from c- to k-. Because chinese dramas are the finest quality entertainment in the world. Everything else is usually a stepdown.
