Everyone only knows how to communicate by shouting in this drama. I liked the premise and some of the acting, but the constant shouting was just too much.
I think I really prefer Miles Wei as an evil character than a good one. It's such a shame, though, that him being disabled is associated to him turning even more evil. (I wish there were more shows like Will Love in Spring which really normalise being disabled.)
This season was so wholesome and refreshing. Such a shame the second half ended up falling into all the trope traps... I'm kind of glad they were split because then I can treat this half as its own show and appreciate it for what it was.
I wonder if they wrote Yang Hua's character with neurodiversity in mind.
Well neurodiversity actually means the diversity of all minds (it's like biodiversity). What you mean is if Yang Hua was written or coded as a neurodivergent person.
I don't know, but he certainly comes across like that to me.
I feel like she loved and cared for Han Yan so much and in the end was just abandoned. There was so much potential…
I disagree. Han Yan discards her because now she has Yunxi protecting her, so her role becomes superfluous. She also keeps favouring her "blood relations" as a family and home when Chai Jing has literally protected her and loved her the whole time. She really just takes Chai Jing for grated.
Is anyone else really upset about Chai Jing? (more in spoiler tags in replies)
I feel like she loved and cared for Han Yan so much and in the end was just abandoned. There was so much potential for a beautiful trusting friendship but instead she's discarded by Han Yan repeatedly.
I see Han Yan is upset by her leaving, but she just never acknowledges Chai Jing's love and willingness to do anything for her. She treats Chai Jing like her underling, and it's so painful to watch as she slowly discards someone who's been abandoned too.
I think I just really need some sweet loving good quality GL in my life. Such a shame that's so hard to find (even in censored form) as BL is favoured.
I can't really cope with Dan Xin and Ping An's break up and Dan Xin acting like a fool to the actual people who…
Another question - is Dan Xin really allowing herself to be manipulated by Yi Ping then or is she doing it intentionally?
Because it's Dan Xin's personality that I'm finding really hard to stomach because she is being perceived as weak because she'd just turn on her friend so easily. Because it's one thing to fall out with a friend over a secret, and a whole other to want to KILL said friend AND follow some random man who was very clearly involved in the horror she experienced. Dan Xin seems way too smart and awesome to fall for that.
Its not because it is a "women-led strategizing', its because the male lead does fit the beauty standard. For…
I liked AJTL way more because of the script, character depth, production and acting. I never judge shows by physical appearance. So I think it's incredibly unfair to make that statement. It's also got one of my favourite OSTs.Also MDL's comment section hardly represents all of the opinions about actors and the shows. In China there was a paid SNS campaign to defame Liu Yuning as ugly before AJTL came out (in English, Avenue X does a great summary of this on YouTube). So, again, I don't think your statement is fair.
I'm really struggling to get past episode 20 for reasons described in the spoiler comment below. Could someone…
I can't really cope with Dan Xin and Ping An's break up and Dan Xin acting like a fool to the actual people who harmed her. Is this actually just part of a broader scheme / plot and/or is this break up resolved quickly? Because it makes the whole women empowerment theme feel weak when they can be split apart and manipulated so easily.
