Even though the first two episodes were a huge cheesefest and somewhat cringy, I still enjoyed the setup of the…
I was sitting on the fence for this because of my dislike for all things NETFLIX (due to their f/u of Yu Meng Long's name after his death) but thanks to your pointing out the annoying details I am now fully vindicated and saved from watching this. Thanks!
He so handsome and a great kisser(probably one of the best I’ve seen in c-dramas)His acting is also great, don’t…
Yan Zi Xian is another -they are both incredibly talented and versatile. Unfortunately, in China a lot depends on who you know and not what you know. Look at Huangyang Tian Tian-she started in Princess Agents and had not been showing much growth but they got her playing against star actors in romantic roles regardless of being underage.
He had such a small role in Whispers of Fate (and despite that his character played an important part in the overall…
yea, half the short and mini drama idols were there including Qi Xia Xia (i am surprised she got in, she is such a powerhouse with her own projects) and Riley Wang and Chang Hua Sen although they are getting into the mainstream more and more. I have a feeling Li Fei is getting ready for something different.
ikr? I watched 19 productions with him and all of the sudden he is MIA. What the fudge???? BTW you have an amazing PFP!!!!! Hi from former Greer's Ferry gal.
Hey, anybody knows the title of VD with him and Zhi Chun He? I found it on YT and it looks promising, but I can't find it here. Take a look and please share your knowledge
This was a good story with a smart FL, who doesn't go back to the cheater. I like FL's expressions, but ML wasn't…
Hey, fancy seeing you here! well, now I have to watch it even though I try not to if the general opinion is less than 7 unless story or actors involved. I like FL and you gave it thumbs up so here I go.
I am not sure what her stance was overall... If she is a modern transplant, why does she care about the dynasty marriage requirements (I am a princess, I cannot decide my marriage)? If she wants to just have fun with multiple partners - why get married at all? Honestly, her "I just want to have friends" line is not fitting with her flirtatious style of interaction with them. I would have accepted and even admire her saying "I want to have multiple partners and you can't limit me" but what she is doing is strange, almost like she is testing her own resolve and power but only with the man she loves. Which is stupid if she does not care that much about others (and it looks that way because she is handsy with them but never crossed the line of sexual intercourse with them, including enemy spy)- why hurt the person you want to be with? You end up with him as well but not after manipulating the fool. While I enjoyed it for the novel women's fantasy, it was not well though through to the end. And the end was just a bummer. Happily ever after? Seriously?
I wish sound editors would put more effort into choosing the bgm for VD. I know there is no budget for OST for these projects but there are so many nice soundtracks from lesser-known short dramas that are not well known or invoking the images from the original productions, I don't think I am the only one who recognizes the titles the music for this drama was borrowed from. I am watching emperor and his love in the most intimate moments and the images of Donfang Qingcang and 兰花 are flashing in my mind... And other occurrences like that
I hate the narcissistic tactics always shown in C-dramas: seriously, 5 thousand years of magnificent history but they make it look like it's based on bullies humiliating anybody by whom they are threatened in their puny egos. If you have no proof for your argument the best thing is to attack the character and/or debase the other party with bunch of epithets? Geez, sounds like one American president... Confucian tradition and rules made women the worst villains for their own kind - who needs enemies if you can have sisters (in and out of harem) who would skin you alive just to prove themselves better or to get a man, any man... Yikes. I liked the cp here as I did in their other dramas together, but this was not too original story and if not for the characters that were played well this would have been forgettable
I am on Li Shi Yao's spree trying to decide if he can act or is just being himself typecasted time and time again. Alas, this was a pretty good set up that went downhill really fast.
I agree, it's quite boring - but this part of the Novel was too. The constant praising gets quite tiresome.However,…
I am with you on that comment. I hear that s3 will be better, so I am waiting. Watching everything with Li Shi Yao for some reason (I think I am trying to prove/hoping he is more than just a pretty face therefore, I get the "no comparing" thingy, but I would rather look at his pretty face not able to act than what she had to do with her character. oh well.
