She probably low-key person, didn't' socialize with elites. Her husband's family, the Princess, they all did recognize her. If she kept to herself, why would anyone recognize her? People don't wander far in those days unless they have a reason to go somewhere. If she goes to capital, she probably waited outside. She has no reason to go inside. She was a nobody so why would anyone care to visit her?

Douban also dropped from 6.8 to 6.7 due to the percentage of perfect 10's has steadily decreased from 18.1%, 17.5%, 16.7% to 14.3%. The user ratings are still growing over time due to how popular it is, so the rating is not final yet.

Knowing the story is not the same as watching the drama.
Novels allow readers to create their own mental images, while dramas provide a vivid, sensory experience with visuals, music, and actors’ performances

AvenueX does not like any dramas. She only likes the old dramas. She puts up with watching so she can make videos to ridicule them. It's basically her act, her trademark. The disturbing thing about her is she has something against certain actors, it's really hatred of them, for whatever she is triggered by them.

You can't watch this drama with logic. You have to just go with the flow to be entertained. This drama was made for pure entertainment not a serious story.
The very first scene is already illogical that a woman tied up, knocked unconscious, buried alive can somehow crawl out of a hole that deep.
People not recognizing her, or she can fool everyone is believable. There are plenty of novels and movies about people who have uncanny resemblance to someone else. A Tale of Two Cities is an example.

But you don't know why she never return his text, when did her college boyfriend show up before or after Han Ting left? Did she ever tell any of her friends about him? It seems like no one else knows that they were college acquaintances. The trailers haven't revealed anything I cannot gather from the synopsis other than how these two met.

Did HT purposely lose to her hand? Does he still secretly like her? Does Zeng Di and others there know they are old acquaintances?

I don't mean it was intentional at all, but life can be like that with her, just like she never meant to neglect her boyfriend. Things can be out of control for her because her life is hectic, unlike Han Ting who is perfect and has everything under control. I'm curious what happened with her because they lost touch for ten years.

I found a link that has Eng subtitle and reposted it above. It was XK who said, "come director, let's try it". They did succeed in getting that pose. I like it.

Does Ji Xing not responding back to Han Ting fit her character? I think it does. Look at all the times she prioritized work over her boyfriend. Does Han Ting saying we are strangers fit his character? I think it does. I think that Han Ting doesn't realize it but the spark that was lit ten years ago in his youth is still there, but he is being pragmatic to avoid sentimental attachments in order to guard his heart.

The director likes to act out the role to show how it should be done.

I don't recall she has a brother.

in the trailer ML said they are strangers as far as he is concern, but I think since he fell in love with her once before (worked on a college project together), he'll find himself falling in love with her again. My feeling is that the essence of Han Ting will still be intact, but his personality may be not so perfect. The essence of the inspirational business venture will still intact.

They might even be closer in age if Han Ting were to skip two grades. The trailer young Han Ting looks kind of shy, not outgoing type, probably studies all the time, became smitten by a vivacious brilliant girl who is also interested in robots like him.

It's my first time to read a novel so now I've learned my lesson. Novel and dramas are not going to be the same. It's best not to project novel onto the drama. I should stop guessing about the drama and just wait for it to air. The problem for me now is that I have this expectation of Han Ting from the novel and need to erase that image to watch the drama properly.

In the novel, they're all brainy college classmates in technical majors. Li LI is Ji Xing's best friend. After graduation, Li Li decided to work in marketing and sales instead of technical. She's an interesting character.

In the novel, Shao Yi Chen was Ji Xing's college sweetheart and lived together after they graduated, then lived apart due to commute. He's smart and in the same work and field as Ji Xing and their companies are competitors. He's a stable, patient, loving, and understanding boyfriend who treats Ji Xing really well.

in the trailer he did not have a chance since he had to suddenly leave for post grad school in Germany, a spot opened up. He texted her about his situation, but she never responded back to him all these years. He figured she forgot all about him. As far as he was concern, they are now strangers. They were never officially dating or romantically involved in college. They met over a college project. He developed feelings for her, but I don't think she did. They never were college sweethearts. Due to his sudden departure, he missed the opportunity to ask her to be his girlfriend. I wonder why she never responded back to him.
