Completely and utterly wrecked (Love Between Fairy and Devil)

Hi, newest member of the Love Between Fairy and Devil emotional wreck club here.

I had previously tried the show and didn't get past 10 minutes due to the overly fake/filtered Arbiter Hall and Xiao Lan Hua's voice.

Then I read the comments on one of the recent "Emotional wreck after 'Love Between Fairy and Devil'" posts * and the level of people's emotional wrecktitudes convinced me to give it another try.

And

O. 🤯

M. 😱

G. 😭

Everyone's like "I can't get over this drama" after finishing it but I was in "can't get over this" mode after every episode. And btw, I'm the least emotional person on this planet. Nothing gets much of a reaction out of me.

But with LBFAD, just the opening theme song makes my insides wrench. Even just a few notes of (fill in song from the OST) gets me all up in my feels. (Side note: The interjection of heavy metal when DFQC kisses XLH and then stares down Chang Heng: *chef's kiss*)

Fan for life of Wang Hedi. He's freaking magnificent. He had such an immense range of personalities (body swap) and mental/physical states (duty vs. love, recognition of love, physical torture) and emotions (hate/love/hurt) and emotional development and he freaking slayed them all. While punching me in the gut and leaving me without breath.

How does one move on from a drama such as this?

* This should/could totally be a weekly feature. "Freshly Destroyed by LBFAD? Introduce Yourself Here!" 😂
