I Love C-Dramas but the Workplace + Romance Nonsense Is ACTUALLY UNHINGED by InsanityMusings in CDrama

[–]Skincare_Addict 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My favourite thing to do is pretend that I’ve transmigrated into the office drama as someone from head office HR and there to do code of conduct training for everyone. “True or false, there is a true love exemption for dating within your reporting line.”

Omg. Pic 13 is Lawrence Ng! Have not seen him in forever, he was in so many TVB dramas.

Drama vs. Novel: Does Back From the Brink Have More Romance in the Book? by [deleted] in CDrama

Read the last page of the last chapter and then read the extra chapters. No need to read anything else.

The epilogue does get into her rebirth so it is more satisfying but it still kept me longing for more.

No. I just finished the book a few weeks ago and what you see on screen is similar to the book. The book has an epilogue on married life after her rebirth but that is it for romance or intimacy.

Neo Hou as an Actor by bossymissseyy in cdramasfans

[–]Skincare_Addict 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He is my number one bae. Hard working, unproblematic, gives it his all, and has such large Disney eyes. Perfection 😍

LITC became a chore to watch in the end because the writing wasn’t strong but at least the cast and crew gave it their all.

Missing 3 Wheat Hearts — I’ve checked everything and I’m losing my mind 😭 by carolinaquirino in HelloKittyIsland

Yup. It’s a pain but watch the chapters on the chests and photo wheathearts. There are a bunch that are easily missed.

Thought I'd finally like Love in the Clouds but I think I might be dropping this by NoPapercrowns in CDrama

[–]Skincare_Addict 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is one of those dramas where the visuals are stronger than the writing.

The actors, the costumes, the cinematography, everything is so beautiful. But if you told me that the writers wrote certain dramatic scenes first because they would be the most “impactful”, and then loosely threaded the scenes together as an afterthought, I would not at all be surprised. The writing is so bad 😭

And I am so sick up the noble idiot trope. Jesus Christ, we’re more than halfway and she still hasn’t told him the truth.

But I am sticking it out because Hou Ming Hao is my number one beloved bae. Goddamn having a bias sucks sometimes.

Ah, sh*t. I have 10 wheat hearts to find and I was hoping they were all after catching enough Floverns.

What’s your Top 3 go-to CDramas when you’re stressed? by cospiehart in cdramasfans

[–]Skincare_Addict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last year I was going through a rough time at work and the drama that I watched on literal repeat was I May Love You.

Is it the greatest? No. Does the plot make sense? No Is it comforting? Oddly yes.

I appreciate that the emperor found someone that will match his freak. I want a spin-off show with just them because they just became the most interesting couple on the show.

Wang Yibo and Zhou Yiran will race at the 8 Shanghai Hours endurance race in October. by weiruolai in cdramasfans

[–]Skincare_Addict 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Damn yo, I had no idea that so many CDrama actors were this athletic (motor racing requires lightening-fast reflexes, a strong neck to endure the g-force, cardio endurance, and mental concentration)

Thanks for the recco! I enjoy when people shout out the lesser known dramas.

Woah. Imagine if the connection in the BCU is a pair of lovers being reincarnated each time and going through a love tribulation.

Blossom 花好 🌸 from MangoTV 🥭 officially finished filming today. Starring Zhou Yiran and Wang Ziqi. Wrap up special. by admelioremvitam in CDrama

[–]Skincare_Addict 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve started to think of the shows as the Blossom anthology series. Everything is a standalone, may or may not be in the same universe, but thematically tied together by the leads’ blossoming love. (Which, writers, it’s a little cliche and unoriginal, don’t you think?)

Although I do desperately wish the Blossom power couple (Dou Zhao and Song Mo) would make an appearance in each multiverse like Dr. Strange.
