Loving Never Forgetting

Not everyone's cup of tea, but if you are into Chinese dramas you will surely enjoy it. Typicall melodrama with tragic chain of events, equiped with twists and turns. Both the lead actors are great and really uplift the the plot as well as the overall quality of the series. It is really a time consuming series having 34 episodes each lasting for about 45 minutes. In short, enjoyable, refreshing and puts smile on the face. Worth giving a shot for sure !!

I could put up with a lot. But, a hateful old woman who everybody insists loves a man but detests his son who she has never known? Too much to swallow. A beautiful face is never an excuse for rotten behavior. Nevertheless, this attempt to redeem an adult who is hateful to the core highlights one of the conundrums of Asian TV. A mother can get a free pass for the most atrocious behavior. However, this takes the cake.

The female lead always walk around the male lead in fear, on literal eggshells. She takes blame and responsibility for things which are not her fault. So , she is neither humble or wise, just desperate to retain what she believes is essential for her. It is demeaning. Then she seeks to build a bridge by utilizing well known excuses for bad behavior: being a single mom. Been black, a teacher in the Caribbean too long for crap. Anyone that bad behaved needs a mirror and straight talk. Taught many boys who are today men. A bad environment or circumstances are no excuse for destructive behavior. She hasn't changed. Was crippled in an accident wherein her son's brother's mother dies, and she demonstrates neither genuine remorse nor wisdom gained.

Loved title but neither plot nor direction illuminates worthiness of such. Manipulation is not genuine conviction. I stopped watching this for same reason I stopped watching lifetime and BET: no matter how intelligent you are, you cannot induce poison and be left unharmed. As a woman belonging to the worst represented race and nations on TV, but who has influence over young minds, it is critical to comprehend how my own world view can help or harm my community. I apologize for my mistakes whether to one child or a class.

Loved child actor, he did a good job. Eventually the second male lead loses his ability to convince anyone who cares to think of his affection for female lead as his performance changes. The male lead looks as though he is constantly constipated and fails to be convincing as boss. Demonstrates authority and power but no in-depth knowledge of being worthy of titles genius and top performing business .

It's obvious this is an older series (premiered in 2014) because the portrayal of women back then was laced with healthy doses of misogyny and abuse. Loving Never Forgetting has a ML who together with his brother, mother, and security detail all physically and verbally abuse the FL who probably spent 60% of screen time either pleading with the ML or crying/sobbing/retching all in an attempt to get her husband's attention so she could clear up a misunderstanding. The was zero respect for her as a human being but was only accorded grace due to her status as mother to their son. It's an incredibly difficult series to watch and some may find it triggering. Save your time and mental health by giving this one a wide berth.
