simc Posted January 8, 2015 at 09:20 AM Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 at 09:20 AM This show is a Chinese remake of the phenomally popular Korean soap Temptation of Wife. Lots of melodrama, overacting, bitchslaps, revenge as well as absurd characters and plots. The language used is quite easy so it might be a good starter show, or some mental chewing gum as you pedal away on your exercycle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVEnW7aTWqs&list=PL8XT8UWYBL1lTE1i26-EOUEHurOJ4US8Y 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roddy Posted January 8, 2015 at 01:54 PM Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 at 01:54 PM Watched a few minutes of it, did seem pretty easy language-wise. It's also a very accurate portrayal of the every day life of Chinese people - spilling red wine down their morning suits, flying off to university in Paris... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roddy Posted January 9, 2015 at 10:05 AM Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 at 10:05 AM I watched a little more - I can see how it fulfills a 'so bad it's good' niche, but I think I'd struggle to tolerate it for more than two minutes at a time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simc Posted January 10, 2015 at 02:11 AM Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 at 02:11 AM The "so bad its good" thing was why I started watching it, and then I just binge watched all 68 episodes over the Christmas break. When you get sick of the watching the show just watch the final episode and you can pretty much don't need to watch the other episodes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
