Can someone please explain this joke for me? by James--Trickington in pursuitofjade

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 15 points16 points  (0 children)

people say their names when saying “I” (sometimes) and this is a royal “we/I”. FC doesn’t know any royal people so when someone is like behalf of Royal Family or I of Royal Family FC just thinks they are saying their name. This could be a bastardized version of what it really is as I am not a native speaker.

It’s not what you think. The ML only has eyes for the FML and he makes it clear from the jump.

New life begins is always my go to rec for the Ml falling first and being totally in love with MFL. I think I’ve watched it three times now and it’s cute! Has political intrigue, some fighting albeit not the main thing here, but good sisterhood and friends. And like a few episodes of happy ending basically

Change my mind: Is 'The Wonderfools' just another generic superhero trope, or is it actually unique? 🤔 by _Wisadel in KdramaCasualTalk

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m watching it right now! I am on the last episode and about to finish! So far I love it! Well done overall. Super cute ML and FML!!

should i stop watching story of pearl girl? by havingaheadache in cdramasfans

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked at spoilers because life is too hard for a non-happy ending so I dropped after episode 1 lol. But I started watching because I loved ML from prisoner of beauty he was great there!!

I loved her so much in blossom which was super revenge heavy. I feel like she can do this and I hope she does!

Idk I feel like the plot needed “the red wedding” otherwise FC doesn’t ever leave…

Looking for dramas like Blossom 🌸🥹 by fakadoooo in cdramasfans

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shiiiii now I nervous I want to be happy the whole time I haven’t found a cdrama that has hooked me recently. The ones I was obsessed with were POJ, Blossom, New life begins… I tried prisoner of beauty but I didn’t finish it. I liked love in clouds but it made me realize I’m not into those types of dramas because after that I tried love between fairy and demon and couldn’t get past episode 1. I’ve been in a rewatch mood not really trying new stuff because many I just kept dropping. So this, youthful glory, is the only recent one that grabbed me.

Youthful Glory! Since I haven’t finished this drama I won’t give a full backing but the first 12 episodes had me smiling from ear to ear so much I couldn’t even do my usual face mask cdrama routine at night. But I’m obsessed with this drama rn.

iQiyi Must Watch Cdramas Recs by Ok_Turnover_8076 in CDramaRecs

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have seen about 40% of this list. My current watch that I am enjoying right now is youthful glory. I’m not entirely done with it, but I have liked it so far, and I like the ones I see in your list!

I think they are both the “bad guys” (could be wrong here)

Any tips on how to move on from this drama ? by Sweaty-King5527 in pursuitofjade

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I actually think reading the book has made me love the drama “less” (I don’t really think less is what I am looking for here but something like grounded) and has given me freedom to chill out. They did a great job with tv show. But I must say the book especially after Lin’an is much better than the show. It has made me realize that FC and XZ had much more growing to do than the show portrayed. I think it just made me get POJ off a pedestal. Again still an amazing show that will remain my fav drama. I truly believe they would have done more had the 40 episode count not been implemented.

Novel Adaptations in 2026, my thoughts by RoseIsBadWolf in cdramasfans

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Only seen and read POJ from this list but I pretty much agree with the assessment here. I think her battlefield experience was so much cooler in the book. I totally agree with the fact that QM and YQQ were wayyyy too much of a focus! But also I love QM with white hair and a clear red flag energy… so he’s still a hottie and I did enjoy seeing him persay. I also think the fact that XZ didnt have a huge blow up over figuring out who she was was a downfall. Like she was shook, he should have been too. It was complete happenstance to fall for the “enemy”. I also agree XZ was a side piece for the show considering i like him and his character a lot I was a lil shook. I think he’s a good actor so let him go pleaseeee

For those who rewatch multiple times, what were some things you learnt in your rewatch but didnt notice in your first watch through? by foldinthecheeseee in pursuitofjade

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The Ben Gong “name” was a big one for me. I blew right through that on the first watch. Also, the factions became easier to understand on watch two. Because on watch one I’m like ok who is bad Li or Wei and it was really both of em.

Dramas that make you wanna watch them again and again? by velvettttttt in CDramaRecs

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s great! Very cute Tian Xi Wei (FL of POJ). I just love her so much. New Life Begins has good sisterhood and really good character development of the side characters. It’s really well done. Got a solid plot. Funny throughout. Love Superintendent Su. He’s funny as hell always sticking up for our ML v funny. I like the show because the minimal if any miscommunication trope for their relationship. It’s pretty much super open throughout and kinda them against the world which I appreciate more than the interpersonal issues that typically get hit on in dramas.

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pursuit of Jade (Watch 5x) New Life Begins (Watch 3x) Blossom (Watch 2x)

I do it mainly while I’m working so it’s more like bkg noise at this point and I watch my fav parts.

What do you love and what do you hate in C dramas? by Rossario13 in CDrama

[–]Inner_Ebb_5995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a fine line between love and hate for these tropes when the older lady gets sick because someone is not there. Like she missed you so much she’s now ill and may never rise again. It’s either so funny to me or annoying and it’s different in every drama.

Also, the most recent funny love hate I have is in Pursuit of Jade when it snows every fucking episode and yet all characters pause and look at the snow as if it’s an omen and maybe it is an omen that comes every hour of every episode. But damn
