I think Liu Ran was put there to irritate the audience. She causes distraction and problems that could have been…
I myself think that she's actually not in the original author's plan, since Ma Bo Yong's novels usually focus more with the detective characters, in this case the trio. Can I blame the scriptwriter or whoever planned for inserting a new character into the drama? That's fine if the added character or their story line is written nicely. For example in The Long Ballad they added the SFL character Princess Le Yan (not in the original manhua), which ended up amazing and loved by audience either her own story or her romance with Hao Du. I blame the scriptwriter of this drama in not writing Liu Ran's character properly, also doesn't write witty dialogues. The repetition calling her husband's name hundred times, seems like, telling me that the scriptwriter doesn't know what to do with the added character.
@Cho NaThanks again for another good article!I am not a fan of the 3x leading actors but the story of the drama…
Me neither actually, but I like investigation C historical dramas, like the ones I mentioned above plus others (Miss Truth, Under the Power, I'm Fallen for You, etc).
As long as crime/investigation is the only genre you love that it won't be too big. My problem is I have so wide varieties of genres I like, so my PTW is also long, haha
Thank you for creating this very informative article for us to enjoy! I think the categorization and analysis…
You're welcome. The categorization comes from my own experience, since to unwind my days I rather watch crime+comedy or for serious mood watch crime+romance. I haven't watch much pure crime so the list will be also a recommendation for myself haha
Omg the work you put on this article! Thank you so much for sharing it! this a confort genre for me so I find…
Oh thanks for the info on SCI. I haven't watched it. I'm not sure crime/investigation is a comforting genre for me. I think I bite my nails watching them for adrenaline rush ;D
Thank you, I think you won't be disappointed watching this drama ;D
You're really amazing writing on Thai dramas! Not many writers for Thai shows unfortunately, so keep up the good work! You provide synopsis on many of them on MDL, so you must know Thai language? You're even ready to write upcoming Thai dramas for 2023, you must've known inside scoop from people there!
