Autumn's Concerto Episode 7 Reactions
Giang Xi ... this character is so mercurial he's starting to come across a little psychopathic. He's not a very well crafted character, I feel. His character, and indeed this entire episode, is suffering from bad writing. I don't think the writers handled the aftermath of Giang Xi's surgery very well.
It would have been better, I feel, if they'd SHOWN us the events that took place after Giang Xi woke up from surgery and then roll 6 yrs in the future. Instead they jump 6 years ahead and then have secondary characters TELL us what happened in the last 6 years. All the flashbacks and telling just made everything seem jumbled and uninteresting. It didn't work for me & it's the most basic of mistakes any writer can make. The # 1 rule in writing 101 is SHOW, dont TELL, and film especially is a visual medium.
I also find myself liking Tuo Ye a lot more than Giang Xi. This of course is due to very poor character development. This never happens to me! I mean NEVER. I've never been in a situation where I thought the second male lead, no matter how great he is, was more suitable for our heroine than the leading male. But in AC I really think he is. Tuo Ye has loved Mu Cheng from day one -- I'm a sucker for guys/characters like this (he reminds me of Do Jin in A Gentleman's Dignity). He's sweet, he's gentle, he's cute, he takes care of her, he protects her, he watches over her, he provides for her ... AND most importantly he loves her kid. He's just what she needs: stable, he doesn't slip in and out of character (one minute hot, another minute cold like Giang Xi) kind ... overall just a very great guy.
I didn't care for the scenes with Yi Qian and Giang Xi. Not when Mu Cheng is getting old, letting a good man pass her by while she pines over Giang Xi.
Anyway, not everything is bad about Giang Xi. I wasn't attracted to him on sight like I was to Halu in Pride, but if you show me some skin I'm gonna look! That shower scene was some proper eye candy! Not gonna lie ...

Xiao Le is so adorable! I fell in love with him the moment I saw him. Completely platonic of course. :P
I just don't like it that he calls Mu Chen by her name, but I guess I'll get used to it. Especially because I can't really make out the names anyway. I have no idea how that woman's (Yi Xian?) ends up pronounced completely different than I would pronounce it. Hmph. :O
What's wrong with Yi Xian by the way? Is she feeling sorry because she knows that everything they have going on is just fake? Or doesn't she like him?
And poor Tuo Ye for still liking Mu Cheng. I hope he will find somebody else..
I'm looking forward to Mu Cheng and Guang Xi explaining to Xiao Le how his dad is not an alien by the way. That will hopefully be interesting. :P
Somehow, Guang Xi isn't as good looking with short hair. Sometimes he looks weird, but I guess that's just me again. ^^''
