I know. He loves kids and kids love him. There is the way he handle them that makes you know that he really care. He will be busy talking to all the crews but he made sure he holds Andy's hand so he wont feel neglected amidst all the adults. And he will talk to him while looking at him in the eyes. And when Andy hugs him, no matter how busy he is, he will naturally hugs him back. Kids know when someone pay attention to them and naturally will cling to them. You cant fake that kind of bond.

And yeah him and that lil girl. I have many gif of them together. ❤️

I know! They are inseparable. Like they will hold hands, then went into the bus, then come out from the bus, they will hold hands again. How cute is this lol?!!

I wonder if he is like this to his own son. He seemed like a really wonderful father.

2 kids? That wonderful. A girl is another one?

Yes, I do watch the BTS and I thought the 2FL is like Orphan House owner and the kid is one of the orphans lol. I thought that way since the last 3 months. 🤣

This makes me happy since during the BTS, I can feel more chemistry between him and the 2FL and it turned out because they are playing husband and wife. Im happy since I like the actress who play the 2FL -- she is Si Lili from Joy of Life.

I'm so excited. You have no idea. 😂 Out of all his unreleased dramas, I'm most excited with this one since the writer is an award winning writer. So this news just makes me even more excited.

Thank you! :D

This is too cute! The kid really cant let go of him. He will hug him or constantly holding his hands. ❤️❤️❤️

So, the 2FL is his wife and the kid is his son in the drama? Is this confirmed?

So, him and the FL is strictly only co-workers?

This is such a wonderful news. I always wanted to watch him in a father's role. ❤️

Like all his other dramas, I think the love relationship in this drama gonna be a supportive and a healing one as well.

Shin Ha-kyun is in this?

Hi! Its nice seeing you around here as well. 🙂☂️

I'm so glad my summary of the drama made you want to watch it. I just adore this drama so much for the healing script and how creative it is. It made me think for a very long time about some of the things that happened in this drama even after I have finished it. And yes, thats my interpretation of the ending as well since all the hints and clues supported that.

About whether Shan Shan knew about Jia Zhen's toxic behaviors, I would say he didn't know from the beginning -- just like in his 'Pursuit' script, we don't know who is the mastermind initially. However, he can sense the cracks starting when we see him waiting for Jia Zhen while he is entertaining all the guests and later that night, we saw Shan Shan watching Leslie's movie 'A Better Tomorrow' -- a story about 2 brothers which kind of reflect his relationship with Jia Zhen. Then afterwards, he can sense it slowly more and more with how many people around him highlighting it to him on how toxic Jia Zhen is. So, he incorporated it in his 'Pursuit' script sub-consciously about Jia Zhen being the true mastermind. The betrayal is huge thing for him, since he loves Jia Zhen very much -- he is one of the reasons Shan Shan is a sunshine despite his tragic past -- Jia Zhen is part of the reason why Shan Shan is as carefree and happy as he is. That's why he didn't pursue to sue him at all -- he even give him credit for the writing, money and etc -- because he still treasures the relationship. That's is why what Mr. Cao said about the stage and how it is easy to go to the dark side is so powerful since once you cross over, you cant really go back to how things were. Shan Shan chose not to go to the dark side and remains he higher person at the end.

This is also highlight how professional is Liu Xia. Usually, people in toxic relationship did not see the relationship as the outside people see them because they are so used of these small abuses. That is why a lot of people in abusive relationship keeps staying in these abusive relationships for decades, since they refused to admit and leave. That's why if you notice all Liu Xia did is let Shan Shan see, how wrong is Jia Zhen. She didnt saya Jia Zhen is an evil guy and Shan Shan should distance himself from him but her approach is to let Shan Shan see how Jia Zhan really is slowly. That's why she will ask him 'Is this normal?' 'Is your brother always do this to you?' and giving advises on how to mend the relationship rather than asking Shan Shan to cut Jia Zhen off from his life. Had she do this to Shan Shan, Shan Shan will cut Liu Xia instead since Jia Zhen is like family to him. Thus, Liu Xia's actions totally matched the behaviours of a professional psychologist and the way she approach this matter makes Shan Shan see who Jia Zhen truly is on his own -- his own time and his own terms. So, you can say that sub-consciously, he always knew the Jia Zhen is bad, that's why we can see it slowly in his 'Pursuit' script as we watched the drama that his sub-conscious always reflected in his scripts -- no matter how small and subtle it is.

And thank you so much for your kind words. 🤗🤗🤗

Yes, I have watched it years ago when it comes out. Not as heartbreaking as the Japanese version but I like it.

One & Only's tragic ending follows the novel and original script by the writer. One & Only had that ending since the original story is Forever & Ever where the leads meet again in modern world after their tragic separation in the past. The original novel One Life, One Incarnation: Beautiful Bones is Forever & Ever. When they did the drama, they just expand One & Only to be their own drama (in the novel, its only parts that tell us their past) -- but both dramas are written by the original Novel Writer; Mo Bao Fei Bao. Both dramas are faithful to her original works as she is the one who wrote both dramas.

You are right. Ruka is in love with Makoto while the teacher is in love with Ruka.

Yeah, good theories! The writer wrote many things for us to ponder which is nice. :)

Thank you! It means a lot for me esp coming from you. 🤗

I'm rewatching the drama back at the moment 😃 -- surprisingly I enjoy it more this time around. This drama has this relaxing, soothing and light feelings to it that I really like. And I notice more details this time around as well. Like the stage for Fa'n Temple that is full of snake and a temple that grant wishes has been established since the Mirror Demon case. Just like how Fubai Wine or Mrs Cui have been established way way earlier before we can see the effects/reasons of it in the story as it has been planned since early on.

And I really think everytime Xuanye wrote that seal protection for Banxia, it really have karmic consequences on his life or his fate. Like the white hair (not only due to him using Fire Sword) or the reasons why he still remember after using Changle sword when he supposed to forget. Thats why he always reluctant to give that protection to Banxia until he falls for her which can be seen clearly starting with the Puppet Demon case where he no longer reluctant that even Banxia asked why he is more willing to do it for her this time around (inside the horse carriage). Xuanye knew that what he did disrupt the balance of nature for keep protecting Banxia against the demons' influence so we see that effects on him gradually. 😢

Thank you! 🤗🤗🤗

I actually started the drama worried that it might not have the same quality like RJL's other dramas but found out yeah, its his usual script quality with lots of nuance and subtexts in the script. ❤️

I think we can trust this as they have shot everything and follow her script. And she doesnt have track record for lying so I guess we are safe. 😆

I don't think she has a track record for lying so I believe her.

For anyone who is interested, this is an actual ending written by the writer: https://mydramalist.com/discussions/63991-wu-you-du/140430-the-actual-ending-intended-for-the-the-demon-hunter-s-romance-by-the-scriptwriter

Hopefully, it can served as consolation and good memories for this amazing show.

Good news! The writer confirmed that this drama would have a satisfying happy ending. 😆

For me, a simple Banxia showing up/follow him to the Carefree Land would suffice. With this, it meant the peach talisman has started to work again so they both can travel between the 2 realms. They fix the Carefree Land dying issue and live happily.

Everything is actually perfect in the last 2 episodes. The only problem when the writer decided to make the leads went their separate way which is a disservice to both of their characters and betray the theme of the drama. We know Banxia -- she will follow Xuanye everywhere that he decided to go.

The drama is really good until the end (just skip the last 10 minutes since the ending is too illogical). The writer wrote a happy ending for the drama but was rejected. So said she has discussed with production team to release an animation version of her original intended ending. Well hopefully, we get to see it.

I predicted it would be like 7.7/10. But I guess the terrible illogical ending made the ratings dived further down to 7.3/10. They should have shown the initial ratings the drama got before the ending. So, we can see how it impacted the score. I remember when A Journey to Love first airing, their Douban rating opened at 7.5/10 but falls to 6.4/10 after the ending. 💀
