this cast (from the leads to the extras) deserved better than this hot mess, we deserved better. the script is all over the place, investigations randomly mixed up with basic romcom tropes with a sprinkle of second hand embarassment commedy (the lowest point is the shop war) and some wish fulfillment scenes. to think that the first episode is brilliant. what a missed opportunity. if you're Luo Yunxi's or Cheng Lei's fan don't watch it, just look for some videos.

it's coming! great news!

it has blossom in the title so it's going to happne at last

according to MarcusHere the drama is keeping this title and i don't know how i feel about it...i mean better than bloossoming love of power but still...what was wrong with the original name?

oh a synopsis (i wish this project is true, i miss a good real historical)

as soon as they find a suitable spot i guess

the Fated General got distribution license after being shelved for an eternity, there's hope

it did. now that it has an international name the airing date must be close. it's a good news

Mango is making higher budget drama with good actors now, it's time they start investing in translators too

i heard this too but everyone says it's just a rumor. it's impossible to make historical dramas within just 12 epsodes anyway so i don't think it's true as far as historical dramas are concerned. if someone knows more let us know please

now it's official, they're making this drama. they just had their booting ceremony (never lose hopes on chinese dramas)

you forgot Blossom.

that's because of the strict censorship rules. they can't literally make such a ruthless and grey character (which is a shame, how much more interesting such a character would be?) but she's still very nuanced and they make you understand why she doesn't trust anyone and the effort she puts in opening her heart and trying to be a decent person. anyway that kind of critique would make sense, i was referring to those fans who were complaining that Zhang Ling He got less screen time than the 2ml (i don't remember his name right now, sorry) and that the drama was more about him (i have ti admit, probably because the censorship rules) the villain is way more interesting than the ml (who was waterd down especially in the 2nd half)

what can i say? therapy is underrated. BUT this is not an idol drama, so i don't think we're going to see many toxic fans here (they usually plague idol dramas, there're of course exceptions)) and we can hope for a good script and good acting (i'm sure about this second point, Liu Shi Shi is a terrific actress and she always choose interesting roles)

this is what happen when you join a fandom instead of going to a therapist (an army of therapist in some cases) the Princess Royal is another exemple. it's a beautiful drama with a deep meaning and memorable characters, everything is so well written, but all it got was fans whining that the 2ml was more important to the story then the 1st ml

all of them or just the modern ones? still a rumor, right?

so it might not be true? i hope it's not.

no idea, all these rules seem to be arbitrary most of the times, maybe it has to do with selling their dramas to the western market

60 episodes it's against the current rules, so i think it isn't true. sepaking of episode number rules, is it true they want to limit them to 26? or is it just for modern drama? (please don't do this)

i hope they don't do like with The Golden Hairpin, always promising and never delivering
