I kinda see it. I think its the hairstyle, with younger PEB esp. in OP and JVJ.

Randomly checked this out while waiting for AOS2, so no expectations but this is actually good.

At first I was wary this will be the usual dumb fl chasing the popular ml who is awful to her, but good thing fl answered that math problem correctly. It convinced me that there's a reason for her actions, so I kept watching.

So far so good. I haven't liked a youth cdrama since SA, so hopefully this will continue to be good until the HE.

I did, as it included my fave 1 Litre, then some of the ones I enjoyed like KieKoi, CQL, Sotus and AOUAD. (Iirc, AOUAD director said the green uniform was chosen because the color goes well with all the blood.)

And I didn't mean to sound mysterious, just didn't want to overshare. 😅 The uniform is sailor, both summer and winter.

This was an entertaining read. Some I've seen, while most I haven't. But I've seen enough to identify what uniform is (probably) from which country.

As someone who went to school in two of the countries mentioned here, I liked and preferred wearing uniforms. Both the formal and PE ones were comfortable. And I didn't need to spend time figuring out and coordinating what to wear everyday. All I have to do is make sure they're ironed perfectly. lol

I still have all my uniforms at home. And I've only worn one again when my classmates and I had a reunion at an amusement park. As for my fave, can't help being biased, my middle school uniform that is featured in the article.

Good, because if you already love him in the drama, then I'm sure you'll love him even more in the novel.

The saving-fl cliff scene was him not ml. And he did a bigger sacrifice for her than those life saving pills.

Yes on their chemistry. Something to look forward to with ghost king and ghost Ayin.

Yes and their reunion would've showcased ZLS's acting because it was a lot of emotions all at once.

Forever bitter about that and the whole JR/generals scene, my favorite part in the novel. So it can't be helped, with my image of this production team. lol

I meant his role, not just participation. Because in WRTW his role was fl's first love, he was shown multiple times in the trailer, high in the cast list and iirc, even posted his photo during his birthday. But turns out he was basically just a guest role.

SY is the same team, so I'm just wary. lol But since ZLS is first billing here, I expect they won't be cutting her story and her friendship with the ghost king. So I'm positively looking forward.

Glad it made you laugh. 😅

3-4/10 And YIS's character still caught me off guard everytime he's on, so different from AOUAD.

Having not seen S1 is kinda fun in a way cause I've the same perspective as fl figuring out her memories, powers and everything. Before it ends, it'd be nice to see a glimpse of badass NS but also for her to end as just herself, CY.

It felt like a lot happened, at the same time not much. But I'm not too worried about how it will wrap up with only 6 eps left. I'm still enjoying it, esp. the cp's chemistry. The science is working, the tension is tensioning.

Hopefully HKL's name being high in the cast list is not a scam this time. lol And I heard he's playing the ghost king(?) suddenly reminds me of HC (TGCF).
Looking forward even more~

Oh I'm not saying its right or I agree, just sharing a possible reason as it fits someone I know from a lawyers-turned-politicians clan. Both expectation and reputation are big deals for many asian families.

It could be the general reason of avoiding pregnancy.
So while the teenagers are still horny, at least they're not getting anyone pregnant which parents think is ruining their future, expectations and reputation.

It could be the general reason of avoiding pregnancy.
So while it might not make their kids into geniuses, at least its not gonna turn into the worst situation.

I checked this out while waiting for another drama, but for someone who randomly watched this because of the dark trailer and familiar fl, I didn't think I would actually get into it.

Its not hard to follow. I like the pace it is going. They didn't drag the meeting, and it seems like the "married first, then fall in love" trope or in this case "remember/identify" since the leads already did the "falling" in S1. And the actors chemistry is good.

I was sold on the explanation. It makes sense to have the og fl play herself. Reminds me of the saying "the soul is the form of the body". In S1 she was a soul trapped in another person's body. Now in S2 she is whole again.

Overall I enjoyed the pilot eps. and the preview is still keeping me interested. Looking forward to the next eps~

This actress is not the fl in S1 right..? I checked this because of the dark trailer and she looked familiar.

Thanks for the rec, right now I'm enjoying it and I don't think I'll enjoy it less w/o seeing S1 (yet) since I'm used to wuxia/xianxia. The mystery of everyone's identity is interesting.

For someone who hasn't seen S1, and just randomly checked out the pilot of S2, it wasn't that hard to enjoy. I quite liked it. I didn't even realize it was more than an hour long until it was over. And the chemistry is good. Now I'm looking forward to ep. 2.

Though being used to cdramas, the wait would be something to endure with only 2 eps a week.

The reuters looks good. Seeing ml's costume reminded me of ALP, but I guess its normal since this is a sequel so they probably can't go far off.
This team though, ALP, CQL, NIF, ADOS.. hard not to have expectations.

Also, HKL is here too..!
Not the BFX x YYZ reunion I wished for, but I'll take anything. Hopefully his character stays for more than one ep.

Exactly. I too don't mind changes, like a good balance of the lead characters. But not to the point that they're unrecognizable esp. if its entirely changed from female centered to male centered that her character is just a love interest/tool for cp. Or worse, turning a strong and smart fl into the typical damsel in distress to make ml the usual knight in shining armor.

Anyways, fingers crossed for this one. I won't have my expectations too high (afterall this is WRTW team, not LLTG) but I'll be positively looking forward.

Heard the filming already started with WAY as final ml. Haven't seen him in anything before but he's young so it might work out better.

Since ZLS is sure 1st billing now, I'll be expecting this won't be WRTW 2.0. That drama was okay, but it didn't do the novel (that I loved) any justice.

Hopefully SY team remembers that two of tencent's hits this year are female centered (one is literally by their fl ZLS). As long as the production is good, it'll be good.
*Adds to my ptw list*

KJW is confirmed, and the character seems like a combination of Rachel and Aera... added to ptw list.
