   October 2026 Modern/Romance/Sports Former office worker, intelligent and beautiful older sister X younger, straightforward, energetic dog Exhausted from work, the female protagonist returns to the island where she grew up, encounters a younger dog, heals herself in the rural island life, and finds love, finally finding happiness after hardship. I cried while watching it. The female lead faced immense family pressure, with a super controlling and image-obsessed mother who put pressure on her from a young age. (She didn't have many scenes, but she left a deep impression.) Thankfully, the female lead persevered. *Sobs* Songxue Crisp, awesome!

   2026.9 Tags: Time travel/Ancient times/Maid/Career A noblewoman's maidservant X a young military officer The female protagonist transmigrates into the body of a sold maid. From being alone and destitute to having both parents, being praised by her superiors (from a high-ranking family), and having friends everywhere, she is like a wolf, fiercely seizing every opportunity and betting everything, transforming herself from a servant into an independent person. The article depicts the welcoming and sending off of female relatives under ancient feudal dynasties. The characters are three-dimensional, neither purely white nor purely black, and one can always inadvertently see "cannibalism". The focus is on career, with love as a secondary element, leaving one wanting more.
