The original work - Go ahead (cdrama) vs this one

 danny_ang:

I'm jealous of you who didn't watch the og yet. You can enjoy FbC to the fullest.

I know its an adaptation, i didn't set my expectation it gonna be the same as the og, at some point i have lowered my expectation. But still FbC can't meet my expectation.

Family bonding in Go Ahead was so strong, when they separated it'll hit you deeply. It a wise choice to watch Go Ahead after finishing Family by Order.

Yeah, I'm actually heaps surprised at how strongly viewers of the original feel. This has to be my favourite k-drama of the year and everyone I know just thinks it's perfect. We're all gushing so I'm actually 1. very excited to watch the original (I'm still on ep 1 atm), but also 2. sad for fans of Go Ahead because you don't get to experience Family By Choice as just a seperate thing. And I've totally been there before with other shows and books. So yeah, feeling lucky right now.

It's so interesting reading the reactions here. I'm loving the Korean version so much I had to start watching the Chinese original. I'm thinking this might be the right order to watch in because it feels like ppl who saw the Chinese first cant appreciate the Korean. That's understandable when you form a bond to characters. 

 It's wild seeing you talk about bad acting though. A few of my friends from twitter made a GC to talk about this drama because we're all so obsessed with it and the two things everyone keeps gushing about are the incredible acting and the deep emotions running through every episode. It was so hard to watch some episodes. I just finished ep 10 and my stomach was in knots. 

the right order is watching Go Ahead first like every normal people. And in 2024 it's cringe that people never watched Go Ahead.
Bad acting, yes. And bad script too.

What a bizarre comment. I'm Australian and it's "cringe" that I havent watched a Chinese-language drama that I've never heard of? I was trying to be polite, but you're just rude and ignorant. What is all this "transgender, sissy princess"? Apart from the wildly offensive language, are you under the impression that women without mothers can't be feminine? How did you even get to that logic?

yes, it's cringe. 

Love this series. Just watched the OG and I just can't continue.. I'll try to watch it again after FBC ends.
