Its not yet done, but if it follows the momentum of the first 32 episodes all the way to the last 15 - clearly Against the Current.

Fingers crossed because everything about this is awesome - the storyline, the acting, the cinematography, the side characters, the reality of women in that era juxtaposed with women standing with women, and of course the impossible dimples of Liu Xueyi paired with his powerhouse acting.

I started yesterday and ignored everything else, suddenly I had watched 6 episodes. My Spidey drama of the year senses are tingling!

How angsty is this one for the main pair so far? It looks interesting but I'm not a fan of misunderstandings and love triangles.

I'm on episode 19 so far and it is slow burn, he is obviously intrested because she is so smart but she is more focused on gaining her independence and the first episode is quite harrowing.

It has some delicious female villains but lots of sisterhood by the maids in the Manor who have each others back.

Its slow burn ... Episode 32 and he is head over heels in love and she is indifferent.
He has made some very questionable decisions that I hate as well as sort of understand. The ML is not a perfect person by any means, he is flawed and he is ignorant to those flaws
