Hmmm, ep 14 is so promising! Why I like Wu Lei ? Because he acts with knowing eyes!🥰

Yes, I’m equally thankful that the author is on board to add her brand of poignancy and beauty to the story, and to stay true to the essence of the novel as how she has visualized it. The director is also amazing in executing yummy, delicate scenes without appearing crude or tasteless.

I love EVERYTHING about this SIMPLE romance centric drama. There are so many great things about it, especially the chemistry between JBR & Seven. Yes, it’s simple and plain, but it’s loaded with a type of beauty that other Cdramas don’t have, and thus makes Road Home unique. Sometimes, people forget that less is more. There will always be those who claim the show should be more of this, less of that, how come this, how come that.

Road Home is a 10 for me. It hits all my spots right. JBR is now my #1 ML. Seven has always been on my fave list. I will remember and treasure the moments of joy that watching Road Home brought me.

Yes, they gave her parents' the money, but it wasn't LC's money to give originally. LC had to borrow a large amount from his BFF which he still must repay. I'm just relaying what the author wrote in the book which match up with what was said in the drama, albeit not as lengthy. LC said his plan was to pay off the debt in 2 years and save a little extra that's enough to cover for the wedding. Honestly, they were already officially married in the court of law. The banquet was just mere formality among friends and family, but also hecause LC didn't want to rob GX out of a wedding gown wedding/banquet/celebration as most brides should have.

Because he wanted to prioritize paying off his dad’s debt so he didn’t need to marry the other lady.

Totally agree. The leads are awesome in here. The original novel's author is also the scriptwriter or on the scriptwriting team for this drama.

I understand your POV.

Yes, full of angst and sadness. If that's not your cup of tea, I withdraw my recommendation. I enjoyed it because it's vastly different from 99% of the Cdramas in term of the director's creativity, color scheme, cinematography, excellent and carefully curated music, and chemistry.

May I suggest you try out The Forbidden Flower in respect to "steamy scenes" and different from the typical Asian dramas regarding intimacy level. It's been out for maybe 2 months. It's a trailblazer in the drama world.

I don't mind this at all. It's alluded to that the baby is well loved. Them not "handling" the baby is the right thing to do in reality for the baby's safety. The show is already using a real baby in the drama which says a lot; and for such a small baby (less than 6 months), she's very fragile and shouldn't be passing along like a toy.

Sadly, there isn't one at the moment that can release serotonin at the same intensity level.

“If I were to turn to ashes, I would still remember you” ===> The correct translation of the saying.

The only temporary relief I can come up with is to re-watch immediately as many times as needed until the withdrawal syndrome abates. Fear not, I'll be there with you.😂 We'll go through it together.

Yes, it's fantastic to me! If you liked it up to ep 17, the rest is even better! Definitely continue!

OMG!! Big grins on my face for the last 90 minutes with ep 28 & 29! My cheek muscles are now all tired and need a massage.

Hahaha. Your head is always heading down the gutter as the first stop.🤪

I know, right? He could hear her and must have been thinking what a rascal he was for giving her a fright, and that they could have lost what they've just mended, and the idea of her being made a widow and a baby without a father at birth.

The chin-to-forehead flicks while his hands are in the pockets are just tooooo funny!!! They are too cute! What a sweet warning. 😁🤣.

And & @enigma05… this whole convo is cracking me up.
