yui

probably because there's only 24 ep

I like how they haven't whitecast everyone in this drama. It looks very natural.

I started this after seeing edits on xhs, as I was lured by Jing Boran's character. He is so obsessive over her but still a green flag 🫣

Since they met on a blind date she should know he was her old neighbor but the times she interacted with him in her childhood are so few as he was a loner and she had her own gang of brothers she hung out with, so the impression and memory she had of him probably faded over time. He was never really relevant in her life, even more so when he moved out of Zhizu Alley after middle school, while he who was protected by her once had always liked her but could only secretly trail behind her.

I just reread the synopsis up there and there is basically a spoiler on the 2ML lol

"You are the only color I can see. In a crowd of thousands, I can spot you in a glance."
STOPPPP THT IS SO ROMANTIC 😩

omg girll i do the same thing lmao

ahh ok I thought so, thank you!

who is the romance supposed to be between in this bc all the trailers I saw confused me lol

aw she wasnt the FL? I just saw clips of this on xhs and her vibe is so diff. its hard to believe she is the same age as me o.o

im on ep 5 and they lowk have no chemistry. at least in the modern/current life. I'd almost rather ship her with the brother even tho thts not even a thing lmao

Definitely recommend The Starry Love!

And I have this feeling sometimes too and I have watched around 4 of his shows. Overall he's been in quite a few impressionable dramas tht I enjoyed but sometimes I feel like his acting/mannerisms are a bit awkward. But in the variety show Wow the World he is introduced as being very introverted with social anxiety which brought some understanding to his acting. I have a very similar personality and I actually think its quite impressive how he's doing despite all that (couldn't be me lol)

Yeah, idk if its bc the hunters dont have funding for weapons or they remain traditional but the way they only fight with hammers and blades was very underpowered during all the battle scenes, esp considering they mention the evolution of the hunters over time. Like I assume it's the 2020s in the show, weaponry could be better 😅 It kinda felt like I was watching a mob gang war but between humans and monsters lol

and there arent even that many kiss scenes 😩 But I like how it portrays MQY as a madman with all his scheming but he doesn't force himself on her too hard.

It's regretful they didn't film a wedding scene with everyone present as the whole theme of this show was about love between friends and family.

i put this on as background noise while crocheting otherwise I could not finish. I had already dropped it once not even 10ep in bc it wasn't compelling enough. It had a lot of potential but the drive of the plot was also a little lacking. The ending was mid too for a HE. Usually I'm a sucker for romantic endings but I also wish they wrapped up the political plotlines like how the new emperors of each country were doing.

agreed.. the reviews are aren't low so I gave it a chance earlier this year but I could not get through it at all. I even started playing it in the background to see if it would start getting interesting and I still couldn't. I really wonder if it's worth picking up again but maybe the reviews are higher because of the cast. I'm more looking forward to their next drama together that was announced a few months ago

That's fair, it took me a long time to get it started too haha

you haven't watched extraordinary attorney woo? that's a pretty popular one and hes the ML

omg the second I heard the dramatic voice echo effects I was reminded of Kunning Palace. I didn't know but could guess they have the same director 😂
And not to say I dont like these dramas I just always found the voice echo effect to be overused in Kunning and goofy sounding. It's a little better in this drama lol.
