Any idea where to find #MyDearBoy? MDL says Netflix but it’s not in my region.

If you can, check out the #twDrama original it's based on. I watched Sunshine first &ended up disappointed that it never really sold the romantic relationship at all. I enjoyed it, but more for what it said about female empowerment in modern China. #MyDearBoy otoh, really was a jie-didi romance

Text, as follows: This is my new favourite noona-dongsaeng romance. Or maybe that should be jia-didi romance. In the end I scored it a 10 because there was nothing substantially wrong with it, and it delivered a near-perfect blend of emotion and realism that left me feeling completely satisfied at the end. No makjang (often a plague in TW Dramas), minimal histrionics, and lots of real feeling. Several times it skirted landmines I expected it to hit, impressing me each time. The Chinese remake Sunshine By My Side was very good, but completely different and lacking almost everything that this drama supplied. If you want a Drama almost exclusively focused on a woman succeeding professionally despite toxic Confucian chauvinism in both her personal and professional life, and with dialogue that ruthlessly skewers that mindset, watch the C drama. If you want a not dissimilar message presented more quietly and with the addition of emotion, warmth and romance - and quite a lot of humour - watch the original.

10/10 for #twDrama #MyDearBoy - noona-dongsaeng done very, VERY right.

Into ep 16/20 in #twDrama #MyDearBoy and it's a VERY different beast from its spawn #SunshineByMySide Others have pointed out there's little sunshine in the very earnest &worthwhile #cDrama and there's basically no romance between the OTP. This one embraces the "jia-didi", as here

Into episode 14 of #twDrama #MyDearBoy and while the #cDrama remake #SunshineByMySide had A LOT to recommend it, the original OTP definitely delivers plenty of exactly what the remake OTP had almost zero of:

emotion.

1/2

7/20 in #twDrama #MyDearBoy far enough to compare with its remake #SunshineByMySide. The #cDrama slashed the core characters, cutting out the ML's sibling and one of his 2 friends. Also made the OTP older 26/36 vs 20/30 (the FL actor was 41, not selling 30) Also stripped out a lot of the

Starting to wonder how much all this "PPL" is costing @jamesdmac.bsky.social - first #cDrama #JiaJiasLovelyJourney now #twDrama #MyDearBoy . As Dame Edna would say "Spooky, possums!" 😆🥗

A man and a woman in a car. He's in the driver's seat, crying. She facing him side on saying "even the hymen can be reconstructed."

As a "tell me you're watching a #twDrama not a #cDrama without telling me" moment, I think this line qualifies. Fake kiss in #MyDearBoy, to fool FL's ex-BF was ML's first, and initiated without his knowledge or consent. He's REALLY upset, actually crying, this is part of FL's response. 😆

eight minutes into ep2/20 of #twDrama #MyDearBoy and there's already been more OTP skinship than in ALL of #cDrama #SunshineByMySide - albeit only a staged kiss to fool her ex.

Starting #twDrama #MyDearBoy to compare it (the original) to the #cDrama remake #SunshineByMySide One big difference is the size of the age gap.Ten years between the characters in the #cDrama ( 8 IRL between the actors), idk these characters' ages yet, but the 17 year IRL gap is much more noticeable

After a detour through a #kDrama #TheWinningTry 3 #Chihayafuru #jMovie , and a #kMovie #UntangledLove it's back to #cDrama #SunshineByMySide In a rare twist for me, I'm watching a remake before the original. It will be interesting to see how #twDrama #MyDearBoy compares when I try it after this
