This, let's report it to admin mydramalist about misleading information. How can they approve misleading article…
Have a look at the articles in the link on my "Companion piece".
I agree that I was puzzled by the title which had me raise eyebrows : was it a click-bait joke? The article itself to my mind was not offensive, only repeating parts of the interviews, with links and pretty posters/pictures ; I had added a gif of same interview in the "interviews" subsection in my "companion piece" and watched it already. The first two articles don't come with same strange title as this most recent one. I was most puzzled by "Lily Alice" already (a D fan? it's bizarre because her watchlist show only South Korean dramas, and what is even more puzzling, there is no reference to the drama TSoPG.) Amazed that she could get 3 articles in and approved in such short time frame. But. After all, some Alices may like Rosy too? or the story ?
Or, as I've summarized yesterday, first 20:1) Pearl girl pearling2) Pearl girl running3.) Pearl girl slaving away…
苏幕遮 Sū Mùzhē : 幕遮 does mean "curtain", 幕 for screen (serious) and 遮 for hidden so there is a hint of someone going into seclusion to perhaps mourn 肃穆 sù mù (homonym) means "serene" /"solemn and respectful" So, combined, you could say there is a feeling of "veiled sorrow".
Wish they used the title The Guide to Capturing a Black Lotus instead, sounds more catchy than the cheesy LGIEF…
Agree: I am a bit tired of all these "Love..." titles and me too, liked The Guide to Capturing a Black Lotus better. Had put that one on my tbw list but thought it was "not before 2025" as someone wrote in this comments section. Then there was Esther's sweet song that got on YouTube and I thought: perhaps Xmas. --3rd collab in the future? Ah yes, I probably should set time aside for Moonlight which I missed. I remembered DYX from The Romance of Tiger and Rose where he paired with Zhao Lusi in a somewhat similar comedic transmigration from novel to ancient costume drama, but here, he first came in so differently that I first thought he was Xu Kai (noticed I was not the only one to think so, btw). -- So far, so good - am catching up, since started a bit late, held up by the other two leading dramas which are all different, so: welcome change of multiple universes 😅
"Daddi" (now Steve?) Tang, Zhao Lusi and Liu Yuning were shopping for the cooking in the live stream of yesterday…
The second one is from the live stream of yesterday, I think? When he impishly added salt to the already salted dish? First one too as a play on words sound of this character name here. "Steve" : I don't know why.
you can almost consider it original script. There are only 10 chapters out, with no ending. These 10 chapters…
Are you sure the author is one of the screen writers ? I did not spot Tan Tianyin in the list of four screenwriters acknowledged on the crew list. If you have a reliable source to add Tan Tianyin as screenwriter in addition to original author, then I would add it in the general information on the: https://mydramalist.com/discussions/zhu-lian-yu-mu/131556-the-story-of-pearl-girl-companion-piece (work in progress)
the novel is incomplete with only 10 chapters so the drama is pretty much an "original" script.
There are 23 chapters now, but since this drama started after the first 10 got reviewed and translated, you are right of course. The scriptwriters teamed to imagine a story "based" on the original novel root, but not growing same way and using other original input. More about the original novel, translations, and reference to the people who made this story can be found in my "companion piece" (still in the works) : https://mydramalist.com/discussions/zhu-lian-yu-mu/131556-the-story-of-pearl-girl-companion-piece
go to Episode guide on top of this page, it is the tab next to Details, between Details and Cast & Crew; you may leave an ultra short review for each episode you wish to rate, as well.

Most references I quote on my companion piece are clickable to check where they come from and related info. The thread is still "in the works" but comments on the parts already there (I have made a first proofreading today) are welcome.

And for the fun, watch Rosy and Daddi Tang (her SML co-star in The Story of Pearl Girl) moving on the song from "classic" Phoenix Legend : "Wolf's Temptation", latest from her Weibo page :

+ let's wish 'cute piggy' Rosy a very happy birthday, in a few hours now !
