  1. LYF cast will appear for the second time on “Hello, Saturday 2023《你好,星期六》” next Sat 8.19!

    Must watch! All MLs are trying to win XY’s love in this special appearance. The MLs look so handsome IRL! XY hopes XL will get his girl in this special. Actually, I hope YZ+TCJ, YZ+DW and YZ+ZWY will have their own drama as THE ONLY CP in it. 

    Spoiler

    (So sorry, WHY/CSFL, I don’t get the “chemistry” between CSFL and XY yet. Let’s see if the upcoming wooing and wedding will change that)

     

    Translation of MLs “fight for XY” and XY’s thoughts, case needed:

    CX (to XL): That mountain I’ve promised you, I’ll give it to you. Please step aside.
    CSFL (to CX): Brother, I can help you achieve your aspiration with all my might, but today, in matters concerning love, I have to fight for myself. Please step aside.
    Jing (to XY): Everything I have, I’ll give them all to you. If I don’t (have what you want), I’ll get it for you.
    XL (to XY): XY, I hope you have someplace to go to, someone to depend on, as well as will be safe, happy and without worries forever.
    XY (to all): I hope we can give this chance to XL this time around. Let him and XY have a HE.

  2. Hello everyone!:waves:

     

    I'm so addicted to this drama that I'm checking out as many discussion boards as I can find lol. Love reading all your thoughts. 

     

    Wow! Ep 18's transformation of Xiao Liu to her true identity and form as Xiao Yao - a visual treat - superb performance and special effects. Yang Zi is the perfect cast for 6+XY! I cannot imagine anyone else for this role!

    This "lotus transformation" scene reminds me of LoF and YM's role. Fond memories. That was sooo good too.:wub:

    I'm impressed and in awe of this LYF production - from casting to plot pacing to CGI special effects to settings, and more!

    It's SOOO GOOD!:offtospace: KUDOS to cast+crew! Bring on more goodies!

    Didn’t know man can be shy away from this. 

    Not that he's shy. I thought he was being gentlemanly by giving her a kiss on her forehead instead. Besides having his "engagement" problem to settle first, he didn't want to kiss her on the lips until she's sure she loves him, and not just have pity for him.

     

    Btw, love all your gifs. Please keep them coming. :fullofhearts:

  3. Just binged this wonderful sisterhood drama. It's been on my to-watch list. Wish I had watched it when it was airing, but never too late anyway.

     

    So heartwarming, inspiring, and also, heartwrenching. Anyone who watches this drama and could stop your tear ducts from being activated, drop me a message. I have a "reward" for ya lol. I cried buckets, needless to say. But it was so darn good - the crying, the sisterhood, and the romance!

     

    Love it! Highly recommend it!

    It's for cheering on LSY and LJA for their new/current weekend drama "Pandora: Beneath the Paradise" (formerly "First Lady"), and I'm also looking for the drama's thread. 

    They make an awesome "couple" :approves:

    Noooo:cries3: Hope we'll see at least some portion of emotions :wub:

    LOL I'm with you. :hwaiting2:

     

    Chen Kun as Chen Gong is the husband of Sun Yi as Di Yue. She's also the younger sister of Bai Yu as Xun Xu. Hopefully, we'll get to see some affection between the spouses? But, it seems Cui Yue has a dark side to her? Or shall I say, a hidden agenda?

    001-Na9kkly1h1glzl9vmmj61cu0u0qfp02.jpg

     

    As for Angelababy as Liu Ying, she will be rescued by Xun Xu during the warring chaos, and because of that, she will be having a crush on (or rather, "be in love" with) him? Though it may just be another hidden agenda?

    001-Na9kkly1h1glzlayhgj61cu0u0nbg02.jpg

     

    LOL. I am just as curious as you are (and I haven't read the book), and just as hopeful for some emotionally touching scenes. Whatever it may be, I'm sure it will be a superb production.

    I can't wait!:cheers:

    Spoiler

    Yup. The proverb should be: The sparrow near a school sings the primer.:hwaiting2:

     

    This drama started off well, in S1, but now, after having caught up with all current season's available episodes, I'm not so sure if it's still a drama (in the normal sense of the word) or a collection of "drama" (i.e. dramatic events that are way beyond human comprehension lol). :crazymad:

    Its unfortunate that there is no well written english language thread for fans to read up on it... im curious how and where did Yang Zi made those supportive statements for Xiao Zhan... 

    Isn't there? I've never checked if there's a thread for YZ or XZ or them as a CP here, or anywhere else. I just assumed there must be many since they are hugely popular.  I will start searching...:cheers:

    I seriously doubt so. Doesnt FBB have more 'high ups' who got her back? But she is still banned in China. This DL is most probably a gone case.

     

    I agree. FBB apparently had tons of solid backers but none could do anything to help her.

    It does look like DL may be out of the C-ENT scene for a long time, if not indefinitely. Tax evasion is a big problem as far as the authorities are concerned.

     

    Lately, it seems there's another problem relating to fans' subscriptions? I have stopped reading about DL now. It's just too sad for this rising star, and I was not an avid fan of his, though I loved some of his dramas. And was particularly looking forward to The Night Wanderer.

    Earlier this year there was news that my favorite Vicki Zhao Wei was also blacklisted too but it was never confirmed what for by the govt. Probably related to her business dealings with her husband but it was never officially announced. 

    I'm still wondering what had happened to her. A lot of what was reported are either propagander or fake news. I do think it has something to do with her business and her close relation with MY, who apparently has crumbled into an ant-like figure now.

     

    Hope all that's untrue though. Only time will tell...:please:

    im watching it initally for Yang Zi but Xiao Zhan stole my heart... 

    For me, the CP stole my heart. They are hot, overflowing with chemistry, and so natural as a bickering to loving couple.:7555_attack:

    Individually, I'm very impressed with both Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan. They both did a fab job bringing us into the life and love of Lin Zhixiao and Gu Wei. And YES, Xiao Zhan is especially charming as Gu Wei. :Pandabulous:

    woah! because it's doing well, they added on 3 new episodes. So now it's 32 altogether. 

    There are two versions. An original uncut version of 29 episodes (aka DVD version), and a TV version of 32 episodes because each episode was cut to fit the TV station's scheduling and advertising needs. Plot-wise, no change.

     

    :wow1:I'm very happy for Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan for the great ratings this drama has achieved. They both went through a very tough time and emerged in good form. Congrats!:wow2::hooray2:

    Hahaha! It should be happy BUT I don't understand why they didn't hug!!!

    Yes, a HE. I'm satisfied though it could have been better. 

     

    From what I've read on C-net, the ending was filmed during the beginning phase of restriction (pandemic), so skinship was pre-empted. Too bad for us lol. They do have very good chemistry.

    Missing this CP already:sad1:

  13. I'm surprised to see an almost "dead silent" discussion here.:wut:

    This is a very good production, IMO. Not just for Xu Kai and WJY, an adorable CP, but also for the food showcase, the script (full of memorable golden quotes), the culture, the music, the overall cast, and the cinematography of it. It's a pity Soompiers don't appreciate it. 

     

     

     

    Love the OST! Beautiful! And well sung by both Lu Hu and Wang Yizhe respectively.

    Her making the poor dude think that he raped her is just wow.

    I agree. Poor QX was so apologetic over what he did.

    Sad to see QM turning bad in this way, and using her evil beginning to trick a good man like QX. She intentionally made him drunk and intentionally pretended to be QY, when he was moping over her, to seduce him. I was feeling bad for her after Wang Shun's violation, but now, I pity QX. Still, I hope QX would get over losing QY to LY.

     

    This CP is a real joy to watch lol.:smooches2:

    when QY said she knows LY likes her, i had to pause and go bk to ep18 again to check, in what context is she saying this?? 

    LY did confess to her last week. But I can't remember which episode. In ep19/20, he pretty much kept hinting to her that he is not 100% pretending to be jealous and trying to keep her maidenhood. I think QY is just in denial lol. Or like she said, her priority is to restore her family/its reputation, and to avenge her family's downfall.

    Again, one does need to get annoyed with QY's action... what, sneeking into the city to find MinEr?? Crazy ... but the plot must move.. and we will perhaps see that enemy is forcing LY to make the ^fake^ QY as his official concubine... hence we have that ceremony / ^marriage^ for them? And more lovely scenes of our couple together.. of LY trying to show his love and QY clueless as ever..  haha...

    2nd male lead is ok but Qiu Yan will be a wasted potential as his wife. He and Qiu Min are a better match to live their boring and insignificant life - which is not bad at all, I imagine they will be peaceful and happier. Qiu Yan and Liang Yi are built for political manipulations and controversies

    Haha so true. I guess the pairings are in place now that QY/LY are a "couple" and QX/QM are also a "couple" haha.:tongue:

    The rape scene is hard to watch T_T

    Just completed ep 19. This scene was hard to watch. Harder for me was when she slit her wrist. But, I'm glad she "woke" up in time and perhaps we'll be seeing her become stronger from now on. Can't wait.

    QM, please don't be strong to go against your big sis QY. Be strong to seek revenge for your mom and family instead.

    About that Wang Shun, he's hateful! Imagine how many girls he had violated? *shudders*

    Hello all! :)

     

    Gosh! Finally binged through eps 1-18 and it wasn't hard. This drama is addictive and I am finding it hard to wait for what comes next lol. Loving the pace and development of the plot, and esp love this CP. They are funny and bickeringly-hot!B) This drama is one of the best I've seen so far (in so far as its cast, plot and pace are concerned), and it is truly addictive. This CP is quite new to me but they are just hitting all the right notes in this drama, and with each other. Sparks literally fly lol.

    it was quite unexpected for me to see the mother die so early on in the drama. I rather like the actress playing her - so gentle and kind looking.

    I like her too. Elegant, motherly and kind. Too bad she had to depart so soon. Glad that she raised QY up well, and supported her in her love for reading and learning.

    I did wonder, how will the male lead break off his engagement with the sister... its not impossible, the writer being quite innovative in his/her ways...

    Yes, he did and it was with valid reasons.

     

    I'm glad the writer didn't drag this out too much. After all, QM likes QX and we know LY likes QY. My heart goes out to 2ML though. He's every bit a gentleman and truly treats QY with sincerity and sweetness. I'm wondering if and how QM would be able to gain his fancy later, or if at all possible.
