Users, if you know the producer, editor, and cinematographer of this drama please add them. MDL now allows the addition of producers, editors, and cinematographers.
why do y'all change the posters.. The previous one was better
Actually, it should not have been changed but I guess it was approved accidentally. If you notice anything that was changed, not according to the rules, please submit for it to be changed back.
Cover arraigned from the most to the least preferred: * Official poster with many characters in it (not rotated). * Official poster of the main lead characters only (not rotated). It could be single-character main posters used by the production company. * Rotated Official widescreen poster. * Official character poster (not rotated). Those are individual posters released for the main characters as an introduction, not the same a single-character main posters used by the production company. * Poster-size DVD cover from the county of origin. * Poster or DVD cover from the release in another country. * Fan-made.
It was accidentally approved, but we removed it quickly. Bromance is a close relationship between straight males. It is not a non-sexual gay relationship. I'd use the tag "Censored Romance" if that is what you mean, as this is a BL, not a friendship/bromance drama.
"Perhaps, GMMTV intervened. " GMMTV did not intervene. I don't think MDL is that important to them to intervene and remove a tag. It was us who removed it.
"Actually, they even tried to lower the ranking of this page on the SERP for 2gether kw on Google. MDL page used to be at the top. Now it's no.4 while yesterday it's at 8-10." I don't know where you got that from.
The version that's available on Viki (USA) is now English DUB. I don't know why they thought it'd be a good idea…
They only removed it in the US. I watched it last month on Viki with subs as it was available in my country. I suggest you use a VPN. Choose a location other than the US and then watch it on Viki.
Can someone recommend Chinese historical or wuxia drama? I watched Nirvana in Fire and will be watching Joy of Life after season 2 airs (can't handle waiting). I only watched 2 Chinese dramas so far; The Untamed and Nirvana in Fire, and want to watch more dramas like The Untamed but don't know what is good.
I'm the one who wrote it and I'm slightly insulted by your comment because you did not criticize the summary,…
I fixed it. How is it now? You can send your proposed change via PMs if you want. Ephermal, if you want to join the re-write efforts contact me via PMs, and I will add you.
Edit: SuibianX and I re-wrote it and hopefully people are satisfied now.
In the nicest way, the current synopsis is poorly written. It is obvious the writer is either young or not a native…
I'm the one who wrote it and I'm slightly insulted by your comment because you did not criticize the summary, but you are criticizing me saying I'm young. It is true I'm not a native English speaker, but other native English speakers checked it for spelling and grammatical mistakes.
Can you point what is wrong so that I can fix it? We already discussed this with other users and fixed it multiple times. After we changed it from the Tencent/WeTV synopsis, the number of users who watched the show went up a lot as the previous one was complicated. Even I was not able to understand the previous one as it talked about things that are briefly mentioned in the beginning but you see them in later episodes. I almost did not watch this drama because of the old synopsis.
When I wrote this synopsis, I tried to only add information that is shown in the first few episodes and make it as short as possible. I did not include the deaths of Jiang Yan Li and Jin Zi Xuan or the info that other clans wanted Wei WuXian dead as it was briefly mentioned and new watchers are still making sense of the start and wouldn’t pay much attention to it. Also, some people actually skip the first 2 episodes about the present and start watching from the past and then come back after they finish the past section, so it would be kinda spoilerish if we include more info.
Also, MDL written synopses are preferred because other websites send us copyright complaints for copying their synopses. And the official translation you talk about that is on Tencent/WeTV is also written by an MDL user, but they were not credited.
How is this rated an 8.9 when everyone in the comments seems to be disliking it ? Is it that bad ? Should I watch…
Only 147 rated it, which is very unreliable. When the drama finishes and all people rate it, you would see the real score.
Also, lots of the people commenting here have not phone-verified their account. So the system doesn't count their score like the ones who have phone-verified their account.
