To tell the truth, I have always been indifferent to urban emotional dramas. The reason why I clicked on this drama was purely because I was attracted by the filmmaker's promotional poster. Chen Ziyao is charming and beautiful, Luo Ziyi shows off his pectoralis muscles, and he has a large-scale emotional drama. What's even more amazing is the line on the poster:Don't be afraid to be a bastard once, I do things better than you!
One thing to say, this is the first time I have seen TVB promote its new drama in such a bold and explicit way. I came in with the psychology of trying it out, but I didn't expect to have an unstoppable feeling immediately. And Douban is as high as 8The score of 7 also fully proves that it is excellent.

There are also many golden sentences in "After Marriage", each of which can bring people the urge to think and debate. For example:In a triangular relationship, the latter is not necessarily the third party, and the first person who is not loved is the third party.
This phrase challenges the traditional stereotype of the "third party". In many cases, society tends to label individuals who intervene later as "third parties" and ignore the dynamics in emotional relationships. However, emotional relationships are not static, they are fluid, evolving, and full of uncertainty and change.
In some cases, even if someone is a latecomer, they may have developed a deeper emotional connection with one of the partners in the relationship, while the original partner may have become emotionally distant. In this case, the latecomer may not be the one who broke the relationship, but a reflection of the change in the relationship.
In any relationship, being loved and feeling valued is a key factor in maintaining a relationship. If one partner feels neglected or unloved in a relationship, they may seek external satisfaction emotionally. In this case, the so-called "third party" may simply satisfy this need, and the real problem lies in the absence and inadequacy of the original relationship.
In short, whether in terms of plot setting, narrative techniques, or connotation themes, "After Marriage" is a high-quality, friendly urban emotional drama. Coupled with the good looks of the actors, and the endless thought-provoking golden sentences, this drama is really worth recommending.
