Didn't they already spill the rumored cast besides Meng Ziyi? Rumors said she will be acting with Li Yunrui, Kong Xue'er and Xia Zhiguang. They will start filming in Dec 20 ππ»
Dang! I watched this drama too when I was a kid! The only thing I remember is how pretty the FL was and that the story is also tragic, just like any other Qiong Yao's works.
I watched this drama when I was a kid. All I remember is this is really tragic. I mean, A LOT, A LOT of tears. I don't remember the story nor the ending though π
Blame it on the censorship! They forced the staff to deleted ALL the kiss scenes including the scenes during their…
I posted a link of a youtube channel that posted all the deleted scenes. Check my comments above π€ There are reasons why they had to delete those kiss and hot scenes: 1. This is a story about an eunuch and a concubine which is forbidden and it will ruin the history. 2. The cp is wild and passionate, unlike other historical drama cp. There are about 20 kisses yet only 4 made it on screen. 3. There is a rumor saying there's a conspiracy that the board (or some people) was afraid of WHD's rising popularity so this drama became the victim of their plot (or something like that) π
Btw this account uploaded all the deleted scenes, but in vietnamese sub. If the links provided by Lan_Lan on the discussion section above are not working/missing, you can watch the scenes in this channel:
I can see why people were complaining about the ending, we suffered through all that to get a half fast ending?…
Idk if you have watched it, but besides the extended ending, this drama also has extra scene. You can call it alternate universe ending and it's very very cute! Check it here: https://youtu.be/K5PRltqlkZs?si=ukf49ztSrPRmqntF
Blame it on the censorship! They forced the staff to deleted ALL the kiss scenes including the scenes during their stay at West Shu where they pretended to be a married couple. This drama finally passed the censorship after the third try. The episodes got butchered from 40 eps to 36 eps, means the deleted scenes worth 4 episodes got deleted! Thankfully, the staff, even iqiyi, uploaded the deleted scenes on weibo and douyin as if they are saying "Screw censorship!!" πππ»
This one is not important. It shows the same scenes with the beginning of The Final Stage. The only difference is at the very first minute where Akiyama meets someone from LGT and talks in English. That's all.
Amazing! Chen Yuqi filmed a documentary series China Before China or Why China! It is a documentary that will tell exactly the history of China, starting from Xia. It will start airing on Oct 20. Yuqi filmed it for 6 months and without going through audition! Chen Yuqi is always private and workaholic. She works hard yet no one knows. I just hope I can watch this documentary bcos I love learning about history.
This is a drama where a bunch of rich people created a game of deception with money prize for the winners and…
No it is very different from AiB where they are stuck in life and death situations. LG won't kill anyone. The losers will have to pay debt. With money on the bet, people are willing to sacrifice others to save themselves. So it is FL's job to make them trust her and willing to work together, while ML has to think of a way to save everyone. I might sound biased since this is my fave jdrama, but you won't regret watching it.
Just a reminder: they filmed The Final Stage before season 2. If you're a fan of Liar Game you should have heard about the rumors that Erika and Shota got into argument during the filming of the movie. Tbh I don't believe it. They might got into argument, but it didn't last long and they made up. Why am I saying this? Bcos when they promoted the movie, they were as close as ever, there was no awkward or uncomfortable moment. When they filmed season 2 Erika and Shota were always together, laughing and talking. Even during interviews, press conferences, variety shows guesting, there was a lot of laughs, eye contacts, support. Even if you try to fake it, your body language shows, but with Erika and Shota, they are genuinely close and comfortable as friends. Also, they reunited in Shota's drama where Erika is the supporting cast as well as a commercial ads just 2 years ago.
what is it about? is it like Alice in borderland or squid game kind of thing?
This is a drama where a bunch of rich people created a game of deception with money prize for the winners and the losers have to pay debt. By their own reasons, they involved an honest, kind hearted girl (FL) and a famous swindler (ML) into the game. So the premise is: will the FL stay kind until the end among greedy and selfish people who are after the money? Will she be able to save everyone?
This drama was a HUGE hit. The drama was re-aired just recently and people still want a new season. You should watch it if you like mystery, suspense, psychological drama with plot twist. The acting, the chemistry, the characters, the games are amazing and you'll end up wanting more. I watched the whole series 3 times already and I still want to rewatch it π€
I watched this drama purely for Toda Erika. Whether it's good or bad it depends on your taste. For me it was okay. Nothing new, nothing exciting, nothing that could make me swoon.
First, I'm not a fan of Yamapi, but in this drama his character is so flat boring. Nothing fresh about Asahi. He is just another cool guy. I think it is stupid to wait for someone who ditched you without proper explanation or goodbye. He can't even contact her, or know her whereabouts. It's plain dumb.
Asahi and Natsuki are more like buddies who connect really well rather than two opposite genders in love with each other. They were ditched by their exes, so they found console on each other. That's all. It's not passionate love.
Hanae is also dumb. She loves Asahi for 10 years knowing she would never have a chance. Although I could see how happy she was when she finally got to date Asahi, but it was also a wake up call to her that they would never be together bcos he is just not into her. Well thankfully she has Hikaru who genuinely loves her, but never forces his feelings to her.
One thing I like the most about this drama is the friendship between Natsuki and Hanae. They know they like the same man, but they never backstab or feel jealous or try to sabotage the other. Instead they try not to hurt the other and even support the girl to pursue Asahi.
Overall, you might want to skip this one. There are more good jdrama than this.
Ah Sebumi is in tight situation between his ex gf and the woman he loves now. Even Satoko could see it at once that he likes Touma π
Well that being said, their feelings to each other became clearer. Sebumi is really protective to Touma. He doesn't want Touma to use her SPEC again bcos he knows how dangerous and harmful it does to her. And as usual he gets the most damages bcos he would never let Touma gets hurt.
I actually think the series should end here (with Zero SP included), but it would have been better if they revealed about Touma's parents in this movie rather than showing Satoko. Although Jun's existence is important for the next movie. Oh well...
Meng Ziyi also won Breakthrough TV Drama Actor for her performances on Royal Rumours and Parallel World! π
