  1. A little late joining this party. I had recently come across posts about this drama on IG and in reading the raving reviews, I decided to give it a try. My goodness, I watch all episodes in 2 days. Needless to say, I am very sleep-deprived. I am so very glad I decided to give this a try because IT. IS. SO. GOOD! I have not read the novels (I want to but don't know where to find them! And are they available in English?) so I didn't know what to expect. The first few episodes sets the stage for Xiao Yao and Cang Xuan but as you watch the drama, it makes it impossible to tell who Xiao Yao is supposed to end up with! Personally, I do not see Cang Xuan being a match for Xiao Yao. At most, he is her big brother who loves and protects her. I did not even consider Ye Shiqi. The way his character was introduced was so subtle that without having read the novel, I thought he was just a side character. A person that enters her life who is going to likely be her right-hand man or something like that. The person I thought most suited for her is Xiang Liu. I loved their chemistry right from the beginning. So I was really surprised to learn (through Google) that the main CP is Xiao Yao and Tushan Jing. Like everyone here, I also felt frustrated at how indecisive and passive Jing is, especially when it came to dealing with his family. But I think I understand why. His gentleness, loyalty and warmth is what made Xiao Yao love him so it is both his greatest strength and weakness. I agree that his character in the drama falls short of the magnificence everyone talked about prior to his disappearance and I want to read the novel to better understand his character. The scene where he finds Xiao Yao's body hanging from the trees and how he breaks down as he gently holds her while the fire around the burns.. that scene was done beautifully. I love, too, how Jing always knows how to find her. Every time she has gone missing, he is always the first to find her. I would say that the only inkling I see of his supposed brilliance is in the way he deals with situations. He is always calm and always seems to know the best way to handle situations to keep Xiao Yao safe and also help the people she cares about (Cang Xuan). It was him who gave Feng Long the advice about moving Cang Xuan to the Central Plains. Jing is highly intelligent but I love that despite everything he has to offer, he never uses Xiao Yao as a bargaining chip. Although he feels jealous and intimated by the men around Xiao Yao, he never gets upset with her and instead tries to sincerely win her heart. I think this is the problem - he feels the need to earn her but this has led to his downfall. My heart hurts for Xiang Liu/Feng feng Bei. Ugh, every time he is with her, I ache for him. You can clearly see how much he loves her but he holds himself back because of the debt of gratitude he has toward his adoptive father. The constant push and pull between them drives me crazy! I find myself screaming, "just be with each other already! Just run away together and be happy!" I cannot wait to see how Season 2 unfolds!!
  2. @Tofu @ktcjdrama I decided to check it out and breezed through all the available episodes. I like it so far. At this point I’m hooked and I hope they can keep the momentum all through the rest of the episodes.
  3. I am tempted to start this but gah, it's a weekend drama with 50 episodes and there's only 8 eps so far. LOL how is it so far?
  4. Interest of Love... why??

      Mouse, my mum watched this and said it was too draggy towards the end.

      By the way, check out Crash Course In Romance if you have time.

      @abs-oluteMI just don't really understand the FL's hang up. It felt to me that a lot of what happened could have been avoided if it wasn't for her creating problems. And the ending was so unsatisfactory IMO. I only watched it until the end because of the ML. I'm a fan of his.

  5. @mademoiselle I’ve never used that brand so I’m not sure if it’s good or effective. on the topic of lash serums, they work. At least the one last I’ve tried do. I apply my Lash serum once a day before bed and I’ve seen a difference. Other people have even commented on it saying that my lashes are looking long. I use a brand called UK Lash. I am considering trying the brow serum as well
  6. Did this just come out? How come I missed this? I just checked iQiyi and there's already 26 episodes out?!
  7. Although this is not my typical genre, I am intrigued and considering watching this because I'm a fan of Ok Taec-yeon. I've always enjoyed watching him in dramas and I find that he's pretty good at portraying roles that are vastly different from each other.
  8. Gotta love Jung-ho's collection of track suits Love seeing Lee Seunggi finally out on those suits though.. as soon as he steps into the scene wearing a suit, my heart just goes "thud thud thud" I am so glad that Yu-ri decided to go all out and confess her feelings to Jung-ho. So cheeky but also innocent and adorable at the same time. I am sooo relieved that Jung-Ho decided to admit to Yu-ri that he also likes her. I worry though about what will happen once she finds out that he is related to Dohan construction. I wonder too, when she'll figure out that he is the author of the book. I love seeing the two of them work together.
  9. Started this today and so far, I'm obsessed. I am intrigued by both Sang Eun and Ji-Ho's past. I get the impression they are both dealing with some form of trauma. It looks like Ji-Ho liked Sang-Eun from the very beginning although it is not clear how he even found out about her and why he said "for the first time, I wanted to save someone". Did he already know about her before meeting her? I am also curious about what he does for a living but clearly he does well for himself. I'm thinking he might be a lawyer or prosecutor or some kind of special detective? Him looking at the pictures of the dead woman while holding a knife I think is meant to mislead. I think he is trying to re-enact the crime in order to piece together what happened and to maybe figure out who the potential killer might be. I wonder who Sang-Eun really is. She seems to come from a wealthy family but I am not sure what her real identity is. As much as that Lady Yoo appears to hate her, there also seems to be some affection there but I am not sure how they are connected to each other. One thing is for sure, Sang Eun and Ji-Ho already have feelings for each other so I am not sure where Jae-young fits in. Also, at this point he is still unaware of Sang Eun's contract marriage with Ji-Ho so I am curious to see how he ends up being her "Tuesdays & Thursdays". I am personally rooting for Ji-Ho though... LOL
  10. I would totally love it if we got a wedding scene! Even better would be a snippet of their married (and maybe family) after!
  11. Everyone is doing the best they can

      That is true. Whatever you're going thru, here's sending you lots of positive vibes. Also I believe your birthday was in Sept? Happy Birthday :hearties:

      @abs-oluteM Thank you! I'm sorry I'm only seeing this now but you were almost spot on in terms of the greeting. LOL you're so sweet! I can't believe you remembered!

    Goodbye to Bai

    I'm heartbroken @bai.. even in your last moments, you thought of those you cared about. Until we meet again my friend.
  13. @mademoiselle yes! I finished Love Like the Galaxy and loved it. Real life was just really busy so I couldn't come here often. I'm so glad there wasn't a break between the first and second half. I really enjoyed it. Right now I am in a bit of a drama slump. I'm only really watching Law Cafe and Discovery of Romance. I'm only really watching Discovery of Romance because it's the C drama counterpart of the K Drama version called Discovery of Love which is one of my favourite dramas. LOL
  14. This looks so interesting! Count me in when it airs! Don't kill me but I am not familiar with the 2nd lead! I don't know who he is! PMY looks so thin in the BTS of their photoshoot but she's pretty as always.
