A world where one can visit the past anytime makes it worth a visit in terms of realizing our past mistakes and correcting them or saying yes to a potential relationship. In the real world, it may not be possible, but in the world of Chinese dramas, it can be.
The scenes are depicted beautifully, with emotional elements attached to them, making it a worthy watch. With OSTs giving the episodes a soulful vibe, the viewers feel a distant connection to the dramas and the journey of the main leads.
The female lead mostly carries this type of time travel drama, with the introduction of a future son or daughter coming to their rescue and trying to make the future life more appealing to both of them. The female lead will take things into her own hands to make her future worth living with or without the male lead or a love interest added to the mix.
Dramas Like I Belonged To Your World
With male-centric time travel dramas, it is mostly different. A huge mistake or a loss makes them regret the decisions they have taken. The common trope in both the male and female leads is trying to rekindle their lost romance or trying to connect with their childhood crush.
While in the real world, we cannot time-travel or change the past or future, we sure can watch these dramas and feel good about them. Time travel will always be interesting when the main leads are going through a crisis and everything, in the blink of an eye, changes for them. While fate gives them another chance at things, it’s ultimately up to them to decide which way they want to go this time.
I Belonged to Your World
Twenty-five-year-old Qi Shuo (Lui Yi Tong) is devasted by the death of his mother, Qi Yue (Judy Qi). To make things right, he decided to travel back in time to save his mother from a miserable life and love-less marriage.
Qi Yue is a happy-go-lucky girl with no ambitions in life. She takes things as they are and does not react to situations unless necessary. Qi Yue meets Qi Shuo, her son from the future. She believes him quickly and decides to help him change her fate.
I Belong To Your World (Credits: iQIYI)
Qi Shuo is determined to make his mother fall in love with Lu Xiao (Jerron Wu), a gifted physics student with good values and, most importantly, a good man.
Hence, they begin their plan of transforming Qi Yue into a straight-A student so that she can get into the university Lu Xiao studies and the inner circle of scholar students. Qi Yue and Qi Shuo make numerous attempts to catch the attention of Lu Xiao, thus making him fall in love with our main lead.
The C-drama I Belonged to Your World is hilarious to watch, with light moments shared between the main couple and the bonding between mother and son, taking viewers on a rollercoaster ride with all the ups and downs in the main lead’s life.
Will Qi Shuo succeed in making his mother’s future different from what it was, or will he be forced to return to the future and leave things as they are?

However, Midoriya’s character arc is of particular interest to fans. Midoriya going “rogue” is a big part of season 6. It’s shown that he might be working on his own, as a vigilante, or as a pro hero.
Fans are interested to see if he finds any common ground between the two. However, Vigilante Deku, or Villian Deku, has a fan base of its own. The fact that vigilante Deku is canon has really fired up the cosplayers to put out their versions of vigilante Deku in the cosplay community.
