[Mainland Chinese Drama 2020] Begin Again 从结婚开始恋爱

[hush puppy]

I just finished watching eps 11 & 12.  So hilarious.

 

Spoiler

Ep 11 - The FL does not want Dr Ling to open the Closet in the Guest's Room.  He thought she was hiding something.  He was more determined to open it.  And when he does so, all the clothes came pouring out on him.  Like the hot lavas flowing down an Erupting Volcano

 

Spoiler

End of ep 12 is so Sad.  The FL has never fall-in-love before.  So she didn't know how the feelings are.  But when she finally realised she loves him, Dr Ling does not believe her. So sad.

@rocs25 Thanks for the schedule.

 

I just finished eps 13 & 14.  Ep 13 is good. But ep 14 is a bit boring. The way both the F & ML try to squabble with each other is a bit ridiculous and unbelievable. Thus I'm unable to enjoy.  Their actings is below par in this department

Hihi, the main lead are so cute ><

I don’t know you but they do suit each other haha.

It’s quite funny since in the drama the traditional male bossy and innocent female lead theme are reversed. Now, it’s the turn of the woman to be bossy and rich and the male lead is innocent. 

Anyway, this year is year for Chinese dramas haha

Yet to watch the episodes this week.  Saw ep.4 with ST's.  So she did not mention anything about having a child with him in the contract.  She has a back story and a trauma in the past which leads to her insomnia.

@pad-hari  You are right.  The FL has a back-story and a childhood-trauma which is not revealed yet.  She tends to have nightmares.

@pad-hari Thanks for the "Tips".

Glad to see more viewers "trickling" into this Thread.  

Most of the times, we do not know where to find a good drama.    Luckily I check out this one.

Thanks god, the FL is not spoilt. Quite a nice, naive lady.

 

Hope to see Tang Ping becoming a better person. People are already married - true or trick. Just leave them alone girl.

While this Drama is a Comedy, it also showcase how difficult it is to be a Female.

 

A Woman is viewed by Society as Incomplete until she is married with children.  She must be a good Daughter, Boss, Wife and Mother. Missing out one is being "Weird" - calling out for Public Scrutiny and Gossips

 

-  A difficult female boss is either a frustrated old Spinster; or having Menopause

-  A bad Mom is a bad Woman

-  A Woman must cook, wash and keep the house clean and comfortable for the Family. 

 

While a Man just has to be successful in his Career will do.  It is perfectly alright to remain a Bachelor

Even if he is "Married" :

-  It does not matter if he does not help in the Housework.

-  He can spend a minimal of his time at home. 

-  It is normal if he comes home late

-  He can spend Happy Hours drinking with his Male friends or doing Biz Entertainment or having  Fun with ........ (you know who..)

 

In the olden days, he only has to bring the Money home.  Now he is not even expected to do that

Airing schedule of this drama is confusing.  I thought 3 days x 2 episodes will be aired last week.  But only 2 days the episodes was aired.  But this week 6 episodes will be aired which will be 20 episodes.  But vvip viewers can watch upto 24 episodes.  So we will know what is happening upto 24 ep.

 

Also some viewers in MDL was not happy with GJ's acting saying that he is stiff and is not emoting properly.  I also feel the same in some scenes.  I don't know if there is any instructions from the director.  But he was good in LE. That's why I started watching this one.  I have yet to watch this week's ep.'s.  will wait for this week's ep and the review from the fans and will continue later. But the FL is super good and love her character for the goofiness and the leadership skills.  She is so cute.  This is my first time watching her and she is impressive.

@pad-hari Agree with you.  The Airing Schedule is confusing. But I'm happy that we'll have 6 eps this week!

 

This is the First time i'm watching the ML. I do feel that his acting is a bit stiff - especially his facial expressions.   I may be wrong.  Bcos this is the First time i'm watching him.

 

As for the FL, I've watched her before in "Long For You" with Song Wei Long.  This is the Second time I'm watching her.  She may not be beautiful.  But her acting is ok. Not excellent. But ok. Better than the ML.  

 

I don't always like the FL's fashion choice. Especially in ep 9, the "Half-Coat".  I don't understand how someone can design such a fashion: a half-coat. One side with sleeve and the other without. So unsightly.  (Song Qian used to do that also in "Find Yourself".  I don't like it too)

 

These are just my Opinions.  So - do forgive me if they differ from yours

[realistic2280a]

Im watching ep5 and i already think there something off about the plot... hmmm...

[schummy_lover]

I like this one..the Fang Ning is really awesome. She is smart and knows what she wants, Ling Rui..hahahahahaha...

 

Thank you @pad-hari  for the outline, so this week we got a happy one, hopefully. Since i saw where Senior Lu kind of find out the contract marriage.

 

As for acting, i guess most cdramas and movie is not for acting...sorry...but enjoying the story even though  sometimes it went off...hahahaha...

Hi... not sure about the schedule... haha.. 

 

About the plot.. i find it funny that after ML knows she is from his past, he was willing to get married with her... yet refused to have any physical contact with her during their wedding night and the day after... yet hr got jealous when her uncle came over.. but even then he didnt do much *to her... 

 

So to me that seemed lile a plot hole. I havent moved beyoubd ep5 or was it 6, so still waiting for the mood to watch..

[hush puppy]

@pad-hari @realistic2280a  I don't like ep 15. It lacks "Sparks".  And I feel it is from the under-par actings.  I cannot catch-on.  At times i even feel a little embarassed for them.  So I'm wondering if i should continue.  

 

The 2nd Pair are alright Today.  Quite cute.

 

@realistic2280a As for your dilemma, my interpretation is.  When he found out that they actually knew each other from the past, his feelings for her got ignited.  Re: his conversation with his mum when he brought her home to meet her.  He told his mom, he wants to understand her better. And his mom said: "That is Love.  Why didn't you tell me?".  And agree to their Marriage. Otherwise she would rather Mortgage her House to settle the debt.

 

So that was his motive for agreeing to marry her.  Get to know her better. 

 

But 1) he is a hopeless Romantic.  He feels they should not consummate their relationship until they are really in love with each other. Same for having a child.

2) he misinterpretes her.  He thought she is a tough but kind lady. That she cannot really loves someone.  That she is only using him to achieve her goal - to be given control of her biz empire from her father. (I won't say more lest I spoil your fun...)

 

And that is why he can be jealous when another man is interested in her. Her uncle at first.  And an actor in ep 14. He loves her and wants her to love him.  Yet when she reciprocates, he cannot believe her.  

 

I hope I have helped solve one of your puzzle
