There are characters he can portray. I just watched this series, his character here is too boring for his usual roles. He used to act intense, dramatic, emotional, and a villain. IDK why he changed his acting style here, it is different than what I used to remember from his previous roles.
For me, the drama was just okay. Initially, I liked Luna when she was so indulged in her happy crush, her character…
To me, it's normal. I studied in a private school in Metro Manila, and I had several friends from different universities around the University Belt. Especially those who studied in San Beda, La Salle, Universidad de Santo Tomas and Ateneo de Manila, I constantly needed to speak in English with them, as most of them are children of some prominent people and foreign businessmen who married Filipinos and own shares here in the Philippines. They understand Filipino, but most of them have a hard time blending with ordinary people due to their family status. Some of us were even raised and taught English as soon as we were born, then we learned the indigenous dialects through classmates and friends, then Tagalog through textbooks and school teachers. I also found out that Marco Gallo could speak Tagalog fluently, maybe the English dialogues that were given to Marco at that time were straight out of a Wattpad novel. Most Wattpad authors like their characters speaking in English, Filipino Wattpad readers find them hot. He has another series partnered with Julia Barretto, 'Di Na Muli', it was filmed earlier before he became famous in 'Rain in España', he was speaking fluent Tagalog in that drama. So I don't think his being an Italian is the problem. I think it's the choice of the script writer, Wattpad author, and director of the series.
If you had watched Autumn's Concerto Taiwanese drama, you will also have the same question since Ren Guang Xi represented Mu Chen about a rape case against her uncle while the rival in law school who hates Guang Xi so much represented the uncle of Mu Chen. I heard from someone else one time who studied in law school that students were given assignments to find a case that needed legal representation as part of a requirement to pass the course/subject. It was free, the client doesn't need to pay since there will be a judge inside a court within the law school.
I just read a spoiler from the novel, Yan Dan ended up falling in love with Yu Mo. I felt heartbroken, but the others said that the Director of the drama did justice this time to change the ending male main protagonist. So I hope it's Ying Yuan all the way. I'll trust the poster where Cheng Yi is the main lead. 😍😍
