I love it soooo much when Tang dynasty dramas reference actual historical relics for costumes, hair and makeup bc Tang china was truly a living breathing high fashion show...like the fahsion and style of the time was very bold and daring and it's a pity when they modernise it
Finally zlh getting proper bad bih styling!! the ugly wig in sokp was way too distracting I kind of couldn't take…
I really hope fansites stop with the ghostly white face red lips editing though like girl tone that down😭 he's litterally naturally pale too I don't get the point lol
Finally zlh getting proper bad bih styling!! the ugly wig in sokp was way too distracting I kind of couldn't take his char seriously bc of it and tpr's styling was okay but this hair is doing his face justice
Not to be dramatic but I feel like this is gonna end up being one of the best xianxias of the decade like it sounds like the plot is gonna be PLOTTING!!!! It's a good feeling bc with idol dramas I kind of expect simple but mildly enjoyable storytelling and nothing more but I'm actually sat for xiaoyao's mystery and adventures 😭
Nah don't expect it cause people there don't like the director that much I don't know why or what happened And…
if gjm wasn't such a shit person his dramas would actually be accepted on an okayish level by cntez 🤷🏻♀️ tbh I personally find that he cares way more about aesthetics than actual storytelling so his shows go stray after a couple of episodes but they're still pretty okay compared to other idol dramas I think what pisses cnetz off with him the most is the neverending rip offs of other ppl's work too. He does it over and over again and I think the reason why mjty was actually not that terribly received locally was the fact that there was no plagiarism found in his work for the first time lmfao (but ofc it came back again with fof and everything got effed up for the billionth time)
was watching avx's review of Blossom and I found it interesting and pretty logical that she thought this director does sort of always control the narrative in the dramas he directs. He seems to care for the overall quality of what he puts out (not just the visuals) and if fame doesn't get to him, I can assume zhu yu has a higher chance of having a decent storytelling even if the scriptwriter's track record is somewhat mediocre. Blossom's wasn't good either but it ended up being a really nice show, probably because zqj knows how to make his shows engaging enough through his lense.
This isn't a masterpiece but the mere fact that there is (still) no irrelevant dooky ahh palace politics with terrible writing makes it times and times better than so many other similar saguk dramas (and btw lady ok is the karl marx of joseon dynasty I love her for that)
First thing I see when I wake up in the morning is cdl and jjy yuri omfgfgg I SCREAMED the way dudu is stroking her hair and kiku is looking at her with vicious doe eyes??? CRAZY
kdramaland was actually starting to become serious and legit, talented scriptwriters who were well educated and…
Also ngl at this point I am way more hopeful for the younger gen of actors bc really??? what the hell are the 2010s icons even doing???😭 I grew up with this ppl and I really love most of them don't get me wrong but I think it's rightful dissapointment when you see that instead of growing and leaning toward more serious projects as they age, they seem to not care about script quality, themes and massage and just want whatever high budget and buzz making slapped on it smh
kdramaland was actually starting to become serious and legit, talented scriptwriters who were well educated and had good vision were starting to work on kdramas but producers really digged their own grave and degraded back to the late 2000s when they decided adapting fanfic-esque manhwas and web novels was a much better and more profitable idea...kdramas get more views now but at the cost of all the beautiful and thought provoking social commentary getting ditched for crappy romcoms and webtoon makjang lol
