if you'd like a shorter drama thats well made and has a really badass FL i recommend Qingchuan's Veil of Vengeance - not very romance heavy but its a good watch and underrated in my opinion

I only watched 4 episodes of this but i'm always gonna say fangs od fortune ☺️

Exactly! I even asked on here a copuple of days ago if it really is equally split drama between the leads and i was assured it was - few episodes and days later and all i see in the comments is how female centric it is and that the ML became a secondary character. Summary was absolutely misleading. I personally also like female centric dramas, but i hate the sneaky shit, making people believe something else to pull viewers in. It should be stated clearly in the tags and summary what exactly you're getting into

i probably will, if only to know if i should reconsider watching further, maybe at least up to episodes that are still acceptable. most people seemed to like it till at least ep 20-22. i sometimes watch only in part and just end at a place where i dont enjoy anymore (for example kill me love me - loved first 20 episodes, dropped it at that and i dont regret it one bit, i might even rewatch them but i have no intention to watch this till the end). see you! :)

Oh my, go to sleep! ☺️

What can you do, some will push back no matter what. I think its good to give some criticism cause some things in dramas might be triggers for people, and its better to read a review and avoid it than feel bad watching it or simply just waste time on it. Not talking about obvious hate tho, thats another story. Its also natural to voice some disappointment if you invested time and energy into watching and in the end you get bitter feelings. Personally im old and cranky, after i come from work i want to watch something that would give me satisfaction, not just frustation, so i appreciate feedback thats both good and bad

See, that's what i appreciate. Ive read description of flourished peony and i can clearly see who's this drama really about. Not like here, where i expect at least two story lines but it ends up to be one. Its so sneaky, and not in a good way

Thank you for your recommendations. Ive watched Blossoms in adveristy and Story of Kunning palace - loved them both. I will check out the others you've mentioned. I also recommend for a strong FL and mature romance A dream of splendor if anyone is looking for something decent. Yeah, i think i will give up on Glory, at least for now, cause i know i would get triggered if i continued 😂

Exactly! I really hate that. Its offensive towards women and doesnt represent anything real. And you have to have something real in a drama or a character to connect to it in a certain way

I also dislike making strong female leads ice statues without weakness and emotions - its like they make them colossal bitches to show strength. It makes them flat and it also doesnt represent how strong women actually are 🤷

Good lord. I dont like watching characters being humiliated and not deserving it, it triggers something dark in me 😟 as you said, no matter what characters represent, in a love story line there should be some respect and dignity for me to enjoy. I like more mature romances too, at least with some semblance of communication at some point of the plot. Thank you for your comment, i really think i shouldnt watch this

Im honestly horrified reading the comments about it. Ive watched female centric, strong FL dramas but ive never seen so many comments like this regarding the story line and FL development. Im gonna drop this i think

Honestly im so sick and tired of being misled by those creating the dramas - the description and tags suggest one thing and then you get something completely different. The description of this drama suggest both leads working together, that the story is about both of them. But every recent comment here suggest such a shift in dynamics that the desciption turns deceiving. Why are they doing this - why cant they explicitely say what's the real focus of the story so you actually know what you are watching?

Damn, ive read so many good things before starting. I like strong female leads, i like the actor playing male lead, i like some family scheming drama too but every comment i saw in the past 2 days about it has been confirming all my initial hesitations about watching the drama. Such a shame

Its exactly what i was afraid was gonna happen, so i was hesitant to start this. I paused at EP 3 and im gonna wait and see how they are gonna end this before continuing

Neo was wilding with his lips in LITC 🤭🤭 just saying

Ive heard some shady things about him about treating actors badly, didnt know about plagiarizing

i see, so we're kind of in the same place with it. well, maybe one day :D

i loved LGIEF so much, im gonna rewatch it for sure. FOF is sad but so worth it, there is a special episode added at the end (its like 20 minutes long) - it sweetens the ending a bit. but the characters are so memorable for me it was really worth to watch. i also liked the romance part in it - many people say it has better bromance than romance but i disagree, the romance part was in my opinion very emotionally intimate and sweet. also i remembered - many people recommend Moonlight Mystique in the fantasy genre - i started it but didnt finish, you might also take a look at that one, i have to go back to it one day, i dont even remember why i stopped watching :)

from the fantasy genre if you liked Hou Minghao i recommend Fangs of Fortune, but this one has only a bit of romance. more romantic are for example love between fairy and devil, love of the devine tree - those two i really liked. i also enjoyed moonlit reunion, love you seven times and a moment but forever. nothing beats LITC, WDBTD, love game in eastern fantasy and fangs of fortune for me tho - absolute favourites
