I've seen the post that said that the author of the original novel (Chai Ji Dan) now thinks of her novel as problematic,…
Yes, exactly! He said he can force himself on anyone but WSW. That's good that the author understands the problem with her character. I feel like the show could have made further changes. Anyway, not ignoring that the show is entertaining. This is just something I have a hard time with. Basically anything rape, SA related makes me feel uneasy. I also did not find it funny that WSW was in pain the morning and could not walk or sit. Makes sense that he would want to avoid CC after that,
But that's the thing. He IS problematic. Very problematic as a matter of fact. He's also caring towards the ones…
They can be many things but forced sex is traumatic and abusive. It feels conflicting. CC is someone who claims to understand what he is doing and still does it. And I'm finding it hard to digest since I'm supposed to be rooting for these two. It's one thing for it to be rough which it might have been the first time. But at least it was consensual. I don't know if they plan to address these issues.
I won't call that "censoring" because the whole series would be lmfao. They just have a different style…
That's why I said, this is already bold for China and I don't just mean today's episode. Even showing the two masturbating is not something we normally see in dramas let alone Chinese ones. I think they've done well without being too explicit actually. Plus the main thing is that the plot is interesting. Hopefully it maintains what it has built up with typical tropes. But you make a fair point about each country having their own style. Revenged Love definitely feels fresh for that reason.
I have some criticism regarding today's episode. This isn't the first time we have seen Chi Cheng be forceful with WSW but forcefully having sex with him in the clinic was not what I expected. Especially since it is clear that WSW was nervous for the first time and then he was in pain afterwards. The show could have used this as a teaching moment on how to be gentle. On top of that WSW learning he was manipulated into it. He should have actually been angry about all this and not just pretending to be angry.
WSW has also lied to CC but it doesn't seem to compare.
There was another scene early on in the drama where CC leaves some guy to be raped by his men. Of course, they don't say rape but they wanted to have fun with him and the man was begging CC not to. Just before leaving he instructs his man not to let them kill the guy. Unless there is serious problems with the subtitles, this is quite problematic.
I'm not sure why such choices were made for this character but it's making him come across like a very problematic person despite them showing him to be extremely caring in other ways.
I am wondering why people thought there would be an NC scene in this episode. Considering it's China, the scenes are already quite bold. I don't think it needs one either. Just want to know where this rumour came from?
I have a question. Can someone explain what happened between Chi Cheng, his ex and Guo Cheng Yu? They explained…
What I understood is Chi Cheng and his ex were together 3 years then Guo Cheng Yu slept with him and so they now go after each other's lovers? Is this right? Is there more to it? Why is Guo Cheng Yu also keeping snakes?
People are complaining wayyy too much about certain scenes, not being like the leaked clips. Only a few months…
I know you're not seriously advocating for that site but genuinely as a PSA no one should use PH as they upload nonconsensual videos, revenge porn, minor videos, etc and refuse to take them down at the request of the people in the videos. So please avoid it like the plague.
I was watching the BTS scenes and it seems like there is a lot of background noise and movement while they are shooting. Do they rely heavily on post, removing all the noise, and voice-overs doing the dialogues more clearly?
It's pretty cool to see the raw BTS scenes and how so many intimate scenes were filmed. I don't know of any other show that released so many BTS scenes. So glad they shared them with us! Love their friendly vibe. ❤️

Details would be appreciated.
