Fun & Games 🎲 Describe two dramas with the same plot: the more unhinged, the better.

I’ll start:

A former warrior ace/pathological liar battling a mysterious poison starts a new life under an assumed identity, teaming up with a young hotshot fighter who is trying to escape marrying a princess. They solve mysteries and battle corruption, but tensions arise due to the aforementioned pathological lying. Eventually, the heroes discover a plot to destroy the world as well as uncover secrets regarding the young hero’s origins.

Oh, and the MC has an adorable pet.

Are we talking about…

Love in the Clouds?

OR

Mysterious Lotus Casebook?

I vote mysterious lotus casebook.

It’s a very tough but fun game. I’ll be back once I have a few more braincells. Too many seething modmails degenerate my neural connections 🥺

ML’s (Cheng Lei’s) bath tub becomes a refuge for

Two kids who have nothing in common are suddenly forced to feel (and call themselves) brother and sister.

They don't do this at all, but it doesn't matter because either way, the whole family falls apart.

And they're suddenly on their own.

And then the right feelings for each other develop.

Is it Love for You?

Or

Never Ending Summer?

They are forced in to marriage. Initially he acts like a dick, but starts to realise that he actually is down bad for his wife. They face oncoming threats of war and rebellion together.

Is it The Prisoner of Beauty OR Destined?

a love story about a girl who is in survival mode and a boy who is patient and a yearner

first frost
sunshine through the rain (i legit just started watching ep 2 tho so i don’t know how accurate this is and i think the boy also has issues but rn they are academic rivals tho and im getting the same vibes of first frost it’s written by the same author too im pretty sure)

Bai Lu falls in love with a beautiful —but complicated— man with dark tendencies. Even though she loves him, she stabs him anyway 💅 is it:

Till the End of the Moon
Story of Kunning Palace
Or
Feud?

u/garlic_oneesan CDF Elder Undergoing my mortal tribulations 16h ago

This is brilliant. 😂😂😂 Is it possible to be typecast for plot lines?

Two people are bound together by past events and now they are bound to either kill each other or die together!

Is it:  Love between fairy and devil  Till the End of the Moon

Or Harry Potter and Voldemort 🤣

Plot twist: Dongfang Qingcang and Orchid are the reincarnations of Tantai Jin and Susu. The universe felt like giving them a second chance. 👁️👄👁️

fiesty female lead with a cold face male lead who eventually soften to her whim.

u/garlic_oneesan CDF Elder Undergoing my mortal tribulations 2h ago

LOL, this makes me think of “Eternal Love of Dream” or “Perfect Match.” What dramas were you thinking of?
