Poor director and production. The FL teasing the ML irritates me so much so I skip the scenes all the time. Nonsense. The scriptwriter should keep this kind of scene as minimum as possible since it is common in almost every C-costume drama.

Too grey? What do you mean? Do actors get paid if the series are not broadcasted?

He's got to be as ruthless as well as compassionate as a leader. Not a lovesick puppy character. Otherwise, I will drop this series.

Agree. He is so underrated by casting agents.

He should be promoted as a ML. Not exactly a hunk but his acting skills are brilliant.

Both leading actors are not exactly famous except Jing Chao., the supporting ML.

Both leads are completely eclipsed by him.

I can drop it for now. I find it so boring. Dilbara really needs a good drama.

Happy ending?

What wrong did the ML do? Was he also involved in her father's death?

The Chairman died? I thought they reunited in Buones Aires.

Awful. The plot is good but the music and directing completely trashed this drama. Plus the women's fashion.

Agree. ML forcing the FL leaning against the wall- I find it troubling, not cool at all. It is an action of subjugation. I would kick the man's balls if someone attempts to do that at me.

But, in C-dramas, the FL falls in love with this kind of guy. So wrong.

Thank you but I have seen some and dropped others. K-dramas that actors speak normally without shouting or yelling? I have seen The Glory so something like that would be good.

BL theme is frowned upon by the Chinese government but we love the theme although we are as straight as 180 degree.

Can anyone recommend new C-dramas besides Anle, Divine Destine, The Longest Promise that were released in early July 2023?

I have watched Episode 6. Di Ziyuan is coming to the Crown Princess selection ceremony.

Li Chengyin personally executed her grandfather but Gu Jian never killed her close relatives personally.

I think that's the distinction. Furthermore, Gu Jian had always wanted to take her back to Xizhou and both grew up together so they had always been close with each other.

No, he was her bodyguard from the moment she entered the capital as a future Crown Princess.

I find the pairing awkward. Gong Jun's personality itself isn't suitable to play a lovesick puppy. He is better at serious drama like the Word of Honour.

The Glory? I find the torture/ violence at school was excessively exaggerated. Other than that, the drama is WOW.

Dilbara's C-dramas are always a hit and miss, I find. She was in Prosecution Elite and was good. But, I gave up The Long Ballad after Episode 2.
