Before I start, bear in mind that there have been a few Chinese dramas with the same title over the years. Forever Love 2023 (盲心千金) that I'm reviewing is a mini drama with only 12 minutes per episode for a total of 30 episodes. To be honest, I'm not a fan of short dramas as they tend to be sloppily produced. I watched this mainly because of the leads' previous drama. They have … [Read more...] about Forever Love 2023 Review

When I Fly Towards You Review
When I Fly Towards You (当我飞奔向你) has such high ratings that I just have to give it a go. To be honest, I'm not particularly fond of youth dramas.
