finally done watching “amidst a snowstorm of love today”. i dragged it out for the whole month, because quite frankly, i can only stand display of affection in small doses😭 not because i find it cringe, but because i yearn for a love like that; to love and be loved as such.
insufferable generals who are cruel and assholes and you want nothing more than their death but their death was so horrific it shocked u to the core that it made you start liking them a bit and got you feeling so empty and sad when you think about them :(
Watching My Journey to You really made me wanna rewatch Qing Ya Ji, they reused some sets, few same actors, used the same hair and costume styling, even the fighting style, they’re all very Guo Jingming lol
Also, a friend once asked me the difference between Boya and Hiromasa, plus between Qingming and Seimei
Should definitely ask her to watch My Journey to You, then tell her that Gong Shangjue is basically Boya and Gong Ziyu is Hiromasa
Meanwhile, Qingming is kinda like a combination of the Wufeng girls, and Seimei is more like Xue Tongzi

I Usually Get Bored with Romance Dramas but Surprisingly, I Really Enjoyed This Drama
When the trailer of Oath of Love first dropped, even though I knew I was going to watch it (because I adore the main leads), I was prepared to get bored of it eventually because Chinese romance dramas tended to do that to me. However, Oath of Love seriously shocked me in the best way possible because I was absolutely engrossed in it. I do not recall getting bored at all.
This drama has a good blend of romance, family and friendships, the amount of happy, funny, angry and sad scenes were pretty optimal as well. All in all, whilst watching Oath of Love, there was barely any opportunity to even feel bored.
Additionally, this drama has a way of kicking stereotypical romance drama tropes to the curb. Let's take the "third parties" as an example here. Gao Xi and Shao Jiang are Zhi Xiao and Gu Wei's love rival but during the span of the drama, none of them did anything "villainous" at all. Gao Xi handed Gu Wei the concert ticket just like she told Zhi Xiao she would, and Shao Jiang did not create any lies about Zhi Xiao at all. It was rather refreshing developing an adoration instead of malicious thoughts for the love rivals.
I would also like to give Yan Bing Jun a special mention. This man really annoyed me in the first couple of episodes. I honestly thought he was going to be that person who would take the despicable route just to improve his position in the hospital. But when he told those parents off in the later episode? When he first stood up for Gu Wei and then stood up for the healthcare workers? I wanted nothing more than to give him a hug and thanked him with all my heart. This man was also another stereotype kicked to the curb. I might have disliked Gu Wei slightly during this period of time, but Yan Bing Jun, Gao Xi and Xiao Du made it better. Furthermore, Gu Wei kinda redeemed himself after that, so all's well.
As for drama finales, Oath of Love did wonderfully in that field. The last couple of episodes were bittersweet; I really liked that finale but those episodes destroyed me. It really was the reason I didn't want to give this drama a rating lower than what I gave. The only thing missing in the finale was one more scene with Zhi Xiao's mother.
All in all, Oath of Love exceeded my expectations and I am still very pleasantly surprised by that. However, I would have liked to see more of San San & Gu Xiao and Yin Xi & Jin Shi. I do not always agree with the advices they gave, but these friends are worth heeding bad advices from. I love a show when the friendships are pure and extremely precious, no ulterior motive or competition and whatnot.
P.S.: I really went into Oath of Love loving Gu Wei because of Xiao Zhan but left the show with Lao Lin as my favourite role in the drama.
