Just finished short (8 episode) #cdrama To The Wonder - iQiYi.

It deserves all the accolades - great acting & script,beautifully filmed, gorgeous scenery.

No wonder Cannes picked it up.

It could have been a schmalzy ‘Dances with Wolves’ version of a Han girl goes to the Wild West but rather it is poetic not heroic.

There is a wash of romance but it is not classically romantic. It is all mood but not nostalgia.

Highly recommend!

So, I’m taking the plunge 🌸 For some reason, I never got round to watching the first season of “Joy of Life”. But now that the second season is airing, it makes sense to watch the first season and then head over to the second season afterwards.
