One and Only was beautiful and I loved the ML. He was the most selfless hero. He had charisma and integrity. You will feel gutted at the end but then you watch Forever and Ever and it was lovely to see they way they were drawn together. Bai Lu did an excellent job showing a Shiyi who dreamed of this past all her life and was able to recognize her love when she saw him. See if you can figure out who is the reincarnation of the crowned prince. Every detail in this drama is significant.

Yes! I can't even watch anything else. But I need to get somethings done this week around the house. I keep watching the leads over and over. I admit the obsession! I can feel their love for each other and I adore PWX. Jin Mai is one of my favorite actresses and I enjoy watching her so putting both Mai Mai and ZHL together is a huge pull for me. Xu Ka is an actor I love to watch but I am not interested in watching his new drama because the cp is not appealing to me. It is not all the time I get a couple I find perfect together. I feel guilty because of LeiMai!



I admit my obsession and refuse intervention! I am happy! 😂

The thing for me is, I don't see LR loving SRQ. Jin Mai has done an excellent job showing changes in expressions that even when she made PWX eat lemons, there is part of her that cares. Yes, those first 2 episodes were harsh and perhaps caused some to drop the drama. I have seen her reaction to PWX as opposed to her reaction to SRQ. The drama might show that due to the past relationship, she cannot just ignore SRQ especially as she is trying to investigate the root of his actions. I have separated her past from the present in terms of the romance with PWX. As of the present, I feel she loves PWX but needs time to trust her heart to him again. She might look at SRQ as in the umbrella scene, but unlike some, I didn't see that as yearning. What I noticed was that both PWX and LR noted that SRQ looked just the same as he did before.

As for your question about ML and FL in any drama, I don't like when one shows interest in another for too long. Perhaps at the beginning before meeting the other but not throughout the drama. But as I said, I do not see LR loving SRQ. Not when she has PWX by her side obviously afraid he will leave her.

Yes. And this is why I am able to be fully connected with the story. I have separated the past and what she did in the past with the way I see that she really loves PWS in the present. Well said!

Great! I will start this soon. Perhaps after The Princess Royal. I can only watch something light as I am already too obsessed with TPR.

Yes it was funny. They even chuckled at what he wrote in the sand. But at that point my heart melted.

Yes! I saw the previews! Finally!

I get that happens. Perhaps it is because I am interested in them and I keep going back to rewatch in order to understand what is going on. This is the reason I feel connected and invested in their relationship. With PWX, I know he loves his princess unconditionally. He. understands her and is willing to wait for her to realize she loves him and trust her heart to him. I love the humor and the bickering. And even though LR tries to appear calm, there are many times she shows she cares. But her problem is that she is insecure where PWX is concerned judging from the number of times she asked him if he will be by her side always or even told him to stop saying he will leave her. He left her in her past life and I think that hurt more than her pride.

With LR, you can't go by just her words. Sometimes she says one thing but means another. For example when she told PWX that she wasn't as concerned about what he suffered but more that he would embarrass her, she does not mean that in her heart and the smile on his face showed, PWX knows it too. I loved watching this tall guy rest his head on his petite wife's shoulder. He was in bliss feeling she cared for him.

I am picky with dramas. I drop dramas if the visuals don't work for me even if I love the actor. In TPR, the idea that the princess was intimate with SRQ in her previous life is a big no for me in terms of romance criteria. But the leads have made their relationship believable and convincing and they are both so beautiful to watch in every way. I am focusing on their present life and how the decisions they make now .

And perhaps what hooks me to TPR, is the sense of enduring love that transcends time and obstacles ( I think the princess killing her husband is a big obstacle even if she did it thinking he killed her too.) I don't know how PWX can still love her after all she did. I like them both but I feel she did so much more to hurt him. And I feel so bad for what PWX went through in the past.

Looks like the first kiss scene is tomorrow!

Now we have to wait to see what happens in ep 18.

It finally hit me after 17 episodes what Li Rong meant when she said she regret missing SRQ. It bothered me that she said that but now I realize it is the translation. She meant she regretted not choosing him instead of PWX. She said this because she thought PWX had killed her. But deep down, LR knows PWX will be the only one for her or rather, she will come to realize. I really hope after today's ep, she will finally admit it to him. I am going to watch the preview now. Another long day waiting for the next episode. If this had not been such a beautiful cp, i would have waited to start.

Preview ep 18/19 with subtitles

Maybe you haven't connected with the chemistry between the leads. I love the way PWX loves LR unconditionally and i can feel she loves him. This is what makes me keep watching. Whenever I pause in a drama, I always lose interest. I paused with In Blossom and forgot about it. I might try it again if I know it ends well.

Does it have an HE?

I watched ep 16 at 1 am and fell asleep because my eyes keep closing especially with music. I woke up at 3 an and watched the rest of ep 16 then went to sleep. Going to watch ep 17 now!

I didn't watch it.

Yes. Don't read the comments and don't read the book. LOL! Just watch. You are going to love the adorable PWX and I like LR also except I want to admit her love for PWX to herself and to him. He deserves it. I am off to watch ep 16 and 17! I have been waiting all day.

I believe she loved PWX in both life times but was too proud to tell him. She thought he loved his ex fiancee. For first 13 episodes you will see mostly the leads and their story with flashbacks. You will like ep 11. I don't want to spoil it for you. Jin Mai said in an interview that it will time for her character to admit her love for PWX. And ZLH also talked about his character's feelings for Li Rong. I posted it at the top in discussions. I will send you the link.

PWX at one point told LR that if they had communicated with each other before they would not have ended up the way they did.

Oh. Thank you. All these initials! I can only recognize the names of actors and characters of this drama page. One drama at a time!

Oh no! Yesterday this was all the rage! LOL! I wanted to hide. I am not blaming anyone. I regretted reading that part in the book and then I said until they say anything in the drama it did not happen. Keep watching. ZLH and Mai Mai are so good together.

Who is LWJ and WWX?

Yes! There is a sense of foreboding perhaps because of what happened in the previous life.

I laugh at PWX assistant. When he asked PWX if he was looking at SRQ I had to laugh. And then when PWX had his head resting on his dear princess' shoulder, the assistant pretty much told him his behavior was inappropriate considering the location 😂 PWX did not want his help.

You are right about Bai Jing Ting and Zhang Linghe. They both have this cute boyish charm and then they can switch into their tough role.
