I was hesitant to watch VV as it was still airing and I didn’t have a strong impression of it much like Cupid's last wish, both being fastasy-based, which I'm not a very huge fan of. But to say I was impressed is an understatement. I fell in love with it.
The chemistry could have been a little shaky in the beginning, but it didn’t matter at all as the situation didn’t call for it. Also the fact that it shone brighter as the series went by made the story even more credible and heart throbbing, like they were falling for each other right in front of you, out the screen .
Let's talk about details. Man, I'm in love with the different color themes each episode hosted, such beautiful inclusions and effects, not to mention how accurate it was in describing the mood of each episode. I love how pink was stressed over and over, everywhere, starting from the poster to lighting, food and dresses.
The characters are a fresh twist to the usual ones, they seem plain at first, but people who took a closer look would have noticed the amount of thought put into them, especially Puen. I loved Kita throughout, man was so dependable to push some slice of life into the series.
The dynamics between Talay and Tun was very interesting and exasperating. The thin line between friendship and love was dug into a huge road they could walk on, the uncertain and beautiful relationship explored to the max. Their love, likes, friendship, misgivings, longing, fear were all so captivatingly portrayed with gentle nuances, not too less, not too much. Only criticism is the sliw progression of their love life, but it's totally understandable for 2 people who never dated in the past.
Sea and Jimmy did a marvelous job in fitting into the characters and all the cameos were a treat to the eyes. Camera works, coloring, lighting and direction was done with great care and dedication, it just shows. The theme in itself is captivating, not to mention that Sea switched to Ohm's body and Jimmy into Nanon's. Couldn’t help imagining them with these dynamics. Also special mention to wadrobe, it was impeccably fitted.
I see people comparing VV to Star in my mind, and honestly, my personal opinion is that, the latter doesn't stand a chance. The story was the same old high school crush- college love themed, screenwriting was okay, but plot holding too many plot holes did not fit in. Actors did a pretty good job, but it was nowhere near enough, guessing direction fell short. Basically, hashtags and fanbase do not determine the worth of any series. There are so many under-rated bls, Triage, Something in my room, Dear doctor, Miracle of the teddy bear, Killer Healer just to name a few. The fact that these didnt trend doesn't mean they fall short in any way. Personally, I cane across a lot of promotions for SIMM, and cutie pie, but neither stood up to the effort, at least the latter had a good chemistry.
I do not like to compare series, but if trending hashtags and fan base defines how good a series is, I'll have to plainly disagree.
Source: https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=166835002593811&set=a.151917324085579There's information that "Immortality"…
People who read the book know that this is like 1000% impossible, it would be easier to change Xue Meng into a female character and cast her as main lead😑
Guys, the translation of first 139 chapters of the book got deleted, any one has alternate links that still work/ cleaned MTLs that don't have translated names and indecipherable word for word translations 💀?
If anyone has any info, please do help. A friend of mine started reading it, got stuck by 26th chapter as the whole file got deleted and is now sheding tears of blood🥲
I'm withering down @_@ Dear gods and devils, ghosts and demons, spirits and aparitions, I pray to all possible deities of the world, let me just see Immortality and die in peace💀
I'm writing a comment on this page after almost half an year, I've just been reading them regularly, mainly to feel a sense of kinship in this long wait for the darned 🐧to drop HYX. And this page never disappoints, truly feeling thankful to have a collective circus full of fellow🤡 to make this immortal yearning easier
What do we think about Shi Mei being a girl? No spoilers please
I'm actually excited at the prospect if they stick to the characterization from the novel. But, gender doesn't change anything much in my opinion, in fact it must've been just a key factor in fitting the drama within the standards of censorship
Finally, done watching the last episode. And. I'm. Speechless. With. How. They. Delivered. Every. Emotion. Accurately.
This shows that a drama doesn't have to have an elaborate screen time or production budget to do a great job. The complex story was very craftily and efficiently embedded within the dialogues and acting, I'm shook. And, though I've been coming across some people that say Hira and Kiyoi's relationship is toxic, I feel the other way. They're just two unrelated individuals with polar opposite personalities who have issues in understanding and confiding in each other. The cherry on the top is Hira's fantasy like obsession towards Kiyoi, and Kiyoi's roughed up pretense that combined together to give an intense ride through out. To me, they're just simply people in love, people who don't know how to step into the love they feel and express it properly, people who can't help but feel insecure of the love they expect to recieve back from the one they love. They're just normal people in love, confused and unsure of what means what.
Maybe their definition of falling in love doesn't match with the norms that some people might have, but nevertheless, love is just love.
Beautiful acting and production, the chemistry was just breathtaking. A huge applause to the actors and crew of this drama, hopefully there'll be a second season >.<
After too much of hemming and hawing, I finally decided to read case file compendium, and good lord, I'm addicted. Do I regret starting to read it ongoing, definitely yes, because I can't stop going nuts over what's going to happen next. And the various theories don't help at all. Talk about twin torture, waiting for HYX and CFC, Meatbun please have mercy🥲

Waiting for the last 2 episodes😵

Then I'll probably loose my mind and go crazy😂

Is the name of a cliff in sisheng peak, it's not me screaming in frustration, never.
