Wait guys! What's wrong? Why the ratings are so low? I couldn't start watching today so I came to the page to…

Don't go by the comments.
First rule: never let the comment section decide whether you'll watch a drama.
You know the craze **ZLH** got after **POJ**. The moment the AI intro became an issue, some people latched onto it and took the criticism all the way down to bedrock. π
Just give the drama a fair chance. Watch until **Episode 5**.
If it hooks you, enjoy the ride. If it doesn't, then at least you'll know you gave it an honest shot instead of letting the comments decide for you.
Everyone has their own reason for watching a drama. Some watch for the story, some for the genre, and many of us watch because our favorite actors are in it.
As for me, I'm here for **Chu Ran** and **CZY**. I loved CZY in *Hidden Love*, so I was already looking forward to this.
Yes, the director has a mixed reputation because of some of his previous works. But his current drama has been doing well so far, and I genuinely hope it doesn't go downhill the way **TPG** did.
And honestly, I think the cast is a huge reason why it's working. If the direction starts slipping, I have faith that both leads have the acting skills to keep the drama engaging.
Idkπ I didn't expect this chaos, just enjoy the show and check it later,some people will drop it and leave.
This is only my second Republican-era drama,and that too after many years.
The first one I watched was **Fall in Love**, and I absolutely loved the atmosphere and setting of that time period.
From what I know, Republican-era dramas often revolve around revolutions, political turmoil, espionage, and social upheaval. I can see why that setting isn't everyone's cup of teaβit tends to be heavier and more complex than other genres. But personally, I really enjoy the vibe of that era when it's done well. It has a unique charm that keeps me hooked.
I have a lot to say, but I'll stick to my own rule when it comes to opening ratings.
If it's sitting at **7.8** *only* because of the AI-generated intro... then that's honestly wild. I'm not blaming anyoneβpeople can rate however they wantβbut it feels a bit unfair to judge an entire drama based on the opening sequence alone.
Personally, I always follow the **first 6-episode rule**.
To this day, I don't think any drama has completely hooked me from Episode 1. I give every drama at least **4β6 episodes**, then decide whether it's worth continuing.
And one piece of advice I always give: **neverβseriously, neverβrely solely on MDL ratings.**
Trust your own instincts. Watch the first **4 or 6 episodes**, then decide for yourself. You might end up loving a drama that everyone else rated low, or dropping one that everyone else praised. Your experience is what matters most. π

Let's just say... we've been through enough to be a little traumatized. π

I've already had to tell **3β4 friends** not to judge the drama based solely on the comments.
Watch a few episodes and decide for yourselfβdon't let the comment section make the decision for you. π
Keep the chat alive!!!
Where did my people go? Come back, I miss the old chatππ
I'm saying this as one of the victims who actually suffered through it.
The drama didn't just go downhill...
It didn't even stop underground.
The moment **MZY** fell off the cliff, the plot packed its bags, dug a tunnel, and kept going lower. ππ
Do you remember
"The princess gambit"πππ
