Love the father and son dark poster that they released this morning. It really capture the tension.

yes, it's based on real history only the point of view and focus is food language. They twist a bit about some of the characters' background but overall is still loyal to the historical events.

You're welcome!

I'm not sure if it's region-locked but try to watch from this YouTube. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVn9O_Mx0d6yEzpZPvc9SMSDObpjD5LZQ&si=fNLE3wfaz41f1_qR maybe you can use VPN

Yes! Also this part follows a bit the real historical events. There are some parts of the story a bit ambiguous if break into details, but the writer fill in well, in my opinion.

Actually historically it can be inferred that ZZJ is kind heart from the paintings he drew. He likes animals and his paintings didn't have the tone of domineering persona.

Yes. She was initially betrothed to Zhu Zhanji from childhood. She was groomed by the ZZJ's grandmother to be his wife, which is learned everything, from education to hobby, tailored to what ZZJ likes.

Yes, it's intentional. It's well known that ZZJ is benevolent so in hope of being freed from the punishment, she purposely went to ZZJ's path and falling in front of him.

noted. :)

Once he posted jokingly that his used mask can be the hairband to block hair from falling down to his forehead, the RS twisted it as if he promoted unhygienic practice.

Once his phone got knocked and the screen cracked, he just look at them shook head and sit silently cleaning the phone.

He didn't knocked her phone to the ground nor he touched or pushed anyone. He just raised his voice but the RS already twisted it. He even got scolded by an old man for the chaos caused by SS. Btw, he raised his voice to warn them because they already disturbed the public and he knew those are SS. He can still endure if they just bugging him. He didn't like if they caused public nuisance.

Xu Kai's character is morally grey, according to China NRTA rules, it's a bit impossible to promote him as absolute main as this will give wrong impression to the viewers and possibly leading the young viewers to glorify morally grey character. If Xu Kai is less known, it's possible to do drama with villain character as main because the chances the drama getting popular and influencing viewers is almost none. My take for this drama is the complete storyline without unnecessary added fillers. I don't mind less or equal screentime if his arc is well lay out. The problem of his dramas in the past is not because of screentime, it's the deletion of his arc and that was obvious given how low his screentime compared to supporting characters.

Nowadays it's hard to get job for long dramas. The number of projects also quite low. So it's normal to do micro dramas. It's better than being jobless.

Wu Jiayi is good with Xu Kai. She was seen promoting Xu Kai few times for dramas. Lin Mu just stuff both Liu Min and He Feng Tian in most Xu Kai's dramas because it's easy for his job. 🙄

Yes, Lin Mu. The guy who sang RF OST is Wang Yizhe, I think he renewed or not yet expired coz HY still updates him.

Not just him, Liu Min the actress who played Xu Kai's mom in Snow Eagle Lord and Royal Feast also no longer with Huanyu. Both Liu Min and He Fengtian were under same agent with Xu Kai. Hong Yao, the guy who played Shen Junshan's bro and Wu Jiayi have also left when their contract up.
