Haha I misused these all the time but languages evolve so when everyone keeps using the wrong saying will eventually become acknowledged as the accepted version.

zhuyueyan.bsky.social @zhuyueyan.bsky.social · 11h

Fans do bring out the best sometimes.

zhuyueyan.bsky.social @zhuyueyan.bsky.social · 12h

Perfect! That solidifies my decision in near future. Thanks again

I want to subscribe to Viki and drop Hulu and YOUKU eventually. I find Viki has a wide variety but they cross over too, not all but some popular ones. Compare to IQIYI and Viki, which do you prefer? Thanks for your feedback by the way!

It’s $119 a year for me so that’s cheaper than Amazon Prime but I order a lot online unfortunately. I don’t think I can give up Netflix, it’s has a lot of good streaming. YOUKU surprisingly is good but limited. We have YouTube TV and Hulu too.

Maybe when I get rid of Amazon prime. I have 4 subscriptions and don’t want to pay for another one. 😅 I’ll have to think this through.

Yes, I’m picking up Prisoner of Beauty now. Heard great things about this one. I’m watching on Viki and not a paying subscriber so ads are annoying.

I thought there were only 22 episodes for #loveintheclouds but looked it up and there are 36 episodes. It’s going to be a slow release. SMH

It’s very silly and fun for sure. I’m in episode 3 and it’s keeping my attention.

It was in the drama, the father was leaving for Europe and told his daughter to follow her heart about marriage. This is a period piece so Europe and using English came at a left field. It’s very creative and fun.

I’m one episode away from finishing #loveintheclouds and yes the kissing scene in eps 19 is fantastic. All the girls and boys are swooning.

Anyway, switched to watch #princessandthewerewolf and finding this modern twist is hilarious. #followyourheart

They definitely have great chemistry. Love their facial expressions and their small gestures to each other.

I thought about this approach too but it’s too good to wait. Im rewatching from beginning to end.

I’m really enjoying #loveintheclouds
and it’s my 2nd #cdrama watching #neohou or #houminghao. He’s quite dreamy and reminds me of #rowoon. #luyuxiao is fantastic in this. She is becoming one of my favorites.

How is it?

#geniemakeawish is hilarious. The intro was very dark so thought this might be a serious #kdrama. On the contrary it’s a comedy. It’s quite funny and not sure if the genie character was intentionally written this way. I’m liking it so far.

zhuyueyan.bsky.social @zhuyueyan.bsky.social · 17d

What a rude awakening! Yikes!

It’s one of my favorite books. I read to my kids when they were young and they loved it.

#betweenloveandfrost 24 episodes (15 minutes each)
#wangjunhao and #hanxinyu

They have a great hook in first episode. Good story and it kept my interest. I finished in 3 days. Heated passionate scenes. Stylized and captured the time well with costumes, settings, and props. 3.5 stars

On YOUKU

It will be and you’ll feel better afterwards.

Clearing stuff and making extra cash. Win win. And yes it’s a lot of work but can be fun. I sold old brooms for $0.50 one year. It was quite funny when people want to haggle and you want to give it away but not for free. 😂
