oh hey, I put TTEOM on hold for now but will get back on it the soonest! I didn't notice Deng Wei's role first coz I was curious about the ML but I will focus on DW's role more later coz I miss his Jing character and will probably rewatch his scenes in tteom lol coz I love seeing his graceful fighting scenes, reminds me of his dancing skills which unfortunately we may not see again? wish I'd see him perform on stage just one time soon when his injury is totally healed and his self-esteem is fully back. I haven't started with My Journey to You but I'll give it a try later coz they said there's a green flag like Jing there, I forgot that actor's name? Linghe perhaps? oh my brain, help. Once Promised novel I think is good but tragic, the story of XY's parents, we know what happened to them. With the drama version, I love the cast but only watched some clips abt it lol coz tragic ending. There's also TTEOM novel if you want to read. I heard DW's role in the drama wasn't given much justice or something. Anyway, good luck with the reading and watching animes!
I actually skimmed through TTEOM novel..I hated ML so much..I know that it's theme is to pass through his being devil but in novel it's unacceptable for me as a male lead. But in drama the I dont think they will include it...
It includes scenes of him jailing her in the dark since he knows that she's sort of have phobias with dark..and sort of rape her there too (its because she tried to shoot nails into his heart to kill the devil inside him but I still cant accept ...and when she sort get away from him (theres an event), he killed random to lure her out. And him possessing her body to kill/stab DW's character there because she sort of respect the man, is a real nope for me now too . There are s some people who sympathize with character but not I. My heart is hard these days. But if he's villain I'd have not problem. ? I still want to know how they soften his character in the show.
And yeo I know Once Promised is tragedy ...but I want to explore the prior story that will continue to become Lost You Forever. and I sort of enjoy Tong Hua ' melo in romance . I can't bring myself to watch the drama.. no attraction for me somehow ..?
