"Me too! It's one of the things that makes the drama so brilliant, they picked up ALLLL the things from the novel and then made something similar-but-new out of them. That's such a great approach to adaptation! ♥ ♥ ♥"
Ikr, I always marvel at this so much! ♡♡♡ And it looks like SUCH a complicated puzzle with so many moving parts to make it this way, and they did SO WELL (in the vast majority of cases) and I don't even know how, I'm just in awe. :D
"I guess I can see how ZYL might look at it that way, but you can be attached to purely utilitarian objects, and anyway they're Shen Wei's and it's not for ZYL to decide what matters to SW and what doesn't. I really hate the underlying attitude and wish this bit about throwing things out wasn't there."
Yeah, I can definitely see that. I would find it a whole lot worse if Shen Wei actually lived in his apartment, but it doesn't necessarily make it better that he doesn't.
"I thought so, too, but I don't actually remember what's in the novel's version of the kitchen scene, so for all I know it might have been moved there in the novel, too. *g*"

It's not in the kitchen scene in the novel. :)
