No hate but after all the patient (or not so patient) waiting for Eternal Love of Dream, I have to say it's a disappointment. Now a huge disappointment that I would give up watching it, but I gave it 2 stars. It's really just tolerable and I'm just watching bc I loved their story in Eternal Love.
Anonymous
I agreed with you!! So far, I'm 16 episodes in and I am not impressed!! It's too slow, and it haven't catch my attention like TMOPB. With TMOPB, I immediately hooked after the first 5 episodes. Maybe I don't like this genre, or the screenplay lacked something??? I will still watch it, but the expectations of waiting for awhile is just not there. I did read that the plot picks up arpund episodes 20 and up, so I hope it won't disappoint.

Nothing I watch this year is impressive. OMG I said that last year, and the year before that and the year before that and before that.

I really enjoy watching rebirth of the shopping holic.. currently on ep 23, and seriously, im kinda addicted to it. The story is simple actually, but i like the main characters.

Fairyland Lovers is also a rlly good drama. I didn't think I would watch because I'm not super into supernatural dramas but the humor and the actors made me really like it surprisingly

Haha. YES finally someone who doesn't call me out for being a hater because of sharing my opinion. Thanks 🙂

I'm loving Eternal Love of Dream. So glad it was worth the long torturous wait. Dr.cutie is such a cute drama. I also look forward to binge watching Find Yourself once it's over.

I'm looking for an empire building series. Start small, then slowing growing in power, economically and military power thru smart tactics

I loved Eternal Love of Dream. The first arc was slow, but totally picked up after from episode 24. The storyline makes a lot more sense after rewatch

Eternal love of dream… My favorite Chinese drama

Hi, I remember that there are stars where you can rate the dramas under the titles. It’s not showing up for me and I would love to see the ratings and the number people rated them. Am I the only one experiencing this?
Anne J
Hi unfortunately, the star ratings were lost after the recent changes we made to the site. We are trying to see if we can get it back.
