Is it perfect? No. But will I rewatch? Yes. I think this became one of my 2025 comfort show!
Well actually I haven't managed to watch properly the last 4 eps, but I've gleaned thru earlier and I think they're pretty faithful to the novel now. I was at work lol
The final phrase WYF said is just....so.....that hit the spot. She wanted it and she got it alright 🥺❤️🫂
I was actually waiting for this drama because I read the manhua a while ago then watched Hidden Love so yh, it is sort of special to me in that... I was looking forward to it
Not to talk shit abt the manhua but most of the time I couldn't really get into it since the artstyle was just really pretty and the artist probably doesn't like to draw more of the characters being emotive or ugly faces but then the drama really hit me with the real sadness that is Wen Yifan's life :"")
Wen Yifan is very close to my heart and yh i don't agree that Sang Yan is a green flag (partly because i just don't like the phrase) It is very nice and sweet to see a man so obsessed and in love with someone who deserves all the love and affection. Very fictional. But nice. Bit deranged, yeah xD
I don't think it's fair to throw out the whole thing after enjoying it and analyzing for weeks. That's a lot of my energy and serotonin used up, man xD. I'll both love it and hate some directorial decisions in it and I'll Ignore them big time lmao
(much like FoF which I loved but it's different for FoF because as much as I love it, I cannot rewatch it ever, lol)
(i also feel kinda bad for the actors of Duan Jiaxu and Sang Zhi who don't get as much love, even Netflix used Chen Zheyuan and Zhao Lusi scenes in their tt for hidden love!First Frost tiktok 😅 justice for them)
