Most of the comments here are positive, which is reassuring. However, on some other platforms, people are spreading…
It is just bitterness. Traffic star fans are always like this; they somehow think only the dramas their favs starred in can be #1. Non-fans viewers aren't watching their dramas so there is nothing they can do about it. The top dramas in China from viewership to positive rating (especially the ones that win awards later) aren't starred by any of these traffic stars so their only "achievement" they can hold on to is heat index and how much ads are in each episode.
It is also not like for example Li Landi's first 10K heat index break either. She already achieved this on the platform Youku for "The Starry Love" back in 2023. And that drama was massively targeted in the beginning too.
I also don't get why these traffic star fans are trying to act righteous when a lot of these traffic stars' come up in popularity aren't clean. They are either heavily invested by platforms, pay tons of money to generate videos to go "viral", buy hashtags and generate controversies to be talked about, etc. Especially the ones that had no acting background and came in as influencers.
Since express is releasing tomorrow, I was skimming through the past few episodes hoping to watch them all tomorrow…
In the drama, it is a mix of liking but also because of the benefits she did bring him. There is nothing he can do when a decree is set for Qin Wan's and Yan Chi's marriage. He is not so in love to the point that he will fight it.
In the novel though, the Crown Prince was a way more complicated character and had sincere feelings for Qin Wan. Shen Wan was actually supposed to be a Crown Princess Candidate before the Shen family's massacre and the Crown Prince did like Shen Wan then. Then he fell for Qin Wan too because she and Shen Wan had the same personality (and he was right; they are the same person). The Crown Prince would be a 2nd ML type character in the mains' relationship if they actually explored it in the drama and allowed his character to be like in the novel. The drama's Crown Prince character is a lot "weaker" and more of a coward.
I guess I wasn't paying attention I just noticed the ads now. 😅 It was fun looking at the drama viewing report…
Yeah, I think those bullet comments too got people rewatching the episodes just to read them because they are so funny. Whatever helps this drama to get more views is good in my book! Plus, the way this drama has been getting slandered by those marketing accounts have pique people's interest in checking it out so even more people are tuning in.
Some more good news about this drama: ads have continued to be added every episode (aka investors see the viewership and see the worth to add in ads) and it has hit at least 10K heat index 4 days in a row.
The coverups and corruption makes my skin craaaaaawl. These people are doing this to each other, imagine how they treat commoners/the people they are supposed to serve.
How can shen wan disguise herself as a qin family member so easily? I must have missed something in the first…
The Qin family hasn't seen Qin Wan since she was a child, Qin Liang (he himself was into medicine) then took her and went to the Medicine King Valley to treat her sickness for years. It was also there where they met the Shen family and Shen Wan became friends with Qin Wan (along with Fu Ling). Barely anyone knew what Qin Wan looked like. Shen Wan herself was also pretty secluded and used to dress in man clothes in the valley to make practicing medicine easier. Yan Chi's men also wasn't able get into the Medicine King Valley to get any witness descriptions of how these two girls looked like.
Just a completely random thought, but if you were the CEO of iqyi and you were obsessed with Coroner's diary for…
There were insiders who get to watch these dramas ahead of the time and they give repo about the drama before it air. For example for this drama, one repo basically said the cast is a visual feast, the mains have chemistry, and they find the palace conflicts more interesting than the cases.
I've been wondering this ever since the arc finished... Why didn't we get to see Bai Feijue set free? Is this…
There is like a 3 second scene where they showed the real Bai Feijue set free by officials at the end of the arc but it was quick so it can be easy to miss.
It is already so rare to have a FL who is considered a genius already in these types of C-dramas to then complain…
Yup, I have plot points I side-eyed myself too in this drama and think certain things can be better but some of these surface level complaints are such nonsense because I don't see it when it is MLs having MC halo at max or having more knowledge/experience than older men in their lives.
