I can't wait for 'Blemish Flaw'. I love the writer + dir's work already. I heard the writer asked Duo to audition for ZJ. Knowing what I know about the char, I don't know if that was a compliment or an insult🤭. If I was dir, I too would cast him as a yandere, tragic villain, black lotus, white to black type lol.

Yeah, the last one wasn't my fave too😅. The orig pics of him in white with wavy hair & the black one from douban were my favs. But everyone has diff aesthetics. It's not the glasses I'm not into.

If you like glasses, you'll love his look as Zeng Jie in 'Blemish Flaw'. He plays an artist there.

So grt to hear that😻. He's a unique & deep actor who's been buried for a while. I hope this year his works get released with good reception like TBL so there's better resources & more interesting scripts🤞🏻🤞🏻.

It's not my fave. I've been rejected so many times with good official shots, I'm surprised this got thru. & I was told NO glasses as it's the guidelines??

The ones I know off top of my head are: WD, TJR, Sun Jun Chen, Omid, Yan An,+ 2 others, YA & the 2 others are newly signed ones.

He's signed to gjm's company ZUI. I heard that his contract might be ending soon. His hiatus was a mixture of him getting caught in gjm & other ppl's canxs: this left him with a 4-year gap after Bloody Romance🙁.

Sorry for the rant. When you see gjm longer, you'll notice some patterns of that man...

I heard the delay to his next role might be due to his contract ending🌠. I think below we have talked about how he's been treated by the company in the past. But yes, if he works with gjm, he'll have him as a supporting or/g.role. It's outside dirs who utilise him better, like in TBL, BR, TLoNB & Xiao Yao.

Yes, he looks grt in VOS guest role... unlike in FOF where gjm done him dirty & had a strange filter on him, + he was a tool char. He filmed that at the time of TBL with no sleep as he weren't free. But the role didn't need to be him. If he does another gjm drama... forget MLs, he'll be in support of his new stablemates (no shade to them).

I'm like some of WD's fans, we're not into gjm as he was the main reason for some of his canxs when he tied him to work in-house. I heard he had a disagreement with him after YYM. He's treated diff from the others, & he looks for work outside the company via himself. Gjm likes control & can be petty. His priority isn't about developing his artists outside, he wants them to work for him. His career would've been regular if he was managed by an agency that deals exclusively with talents, & he worked spread out. Instead there's a conflict of interests & a level of self promotion involved for gjm. Plus, being known as working just for him comes with stigma & innuendo. No matter how good your acting is, you are known as one of the harem🙄. Sorry rant over, & I haven't even gone into the other stuff🤣.

That's what I want to know. I heard he was replaced in Dec at the last min for a role he prepped for🙁. I was looking forward to it as it looked interesting from the m.up & costume trial on his Douyin... such as the cutthroat world of Cdrama Land. & this was b4 TBL had aired.

He should be joining a set in Mar🤞🏻. I'm just hoping it's not GJM again.

The production was really closed. What I got was the character is mortal & the leader of the Imperial Guards (demon hunting division): Lord Bingzhu.
We were discussing if he was a villain on the Xiao Yao page. I think he might go from good to tragic or bad. From the pics of him towards the end, he looks like he's poisoned/possessed/or gone evil.

EDIT: I uploaded photos I could get hold of. They start from these pages, going backwards, usually it's 6-8 photos:

I loved all 3 of them. And I think the ending and how the support characters have depth is what makes it different from a cliché XX that's about CP & black vs white. Here it's grey all the way. If they had extra eps dedicated to after the ending, it would've been the icing on the cake💎.

TY lol. I'm trying to hold back, I've collected too many pics while they were filming & airing. There were 4/5 of us doing it before.

4 mins🤭.

It sounds like he is 'brother' to one or the other🤣. They said something about him giving a pill/ holding a dragon scale. I think YA was in the scene too, he had his hair up in a bun. Maybe he's like a predecessor, but not evil😢.

I saw that. Is he doomed to be a 'brother' again lol. I've not been following VOS but I also see them say his ring looks similar to TJR's, he might be brother😅, or the former Dragon God. I just hope he's evil & last more than 5 mins...

I heard someone say the actor had some controversy & cheated on his pregnant GF.

I read the summary of 'My husband has Scholar Syndrome' & I see wym, I can see them in these roles. It would actually make a good movie.
His next drama 'Blemish Flaw' the book it's based on is morbid & crazy. & the char of a yandere artist, murder suspect, is so him🤣.

As for the MXL/FY question. I will say what he said at the end (so💔) does show love. His care, love & protection to Pearl is vv deep, as she is his only world in a way, so that love was more than the usual type. While FY broke thru to him in a diff way. Her deep devotion & sacrifice to him moved the NXY part of him. If they had the opp to be together after that period it could of 'Blossomed' into something more...

"artsy scumbag husband"🤣🤣. He'll be 'interesting'. I saw he also has 'male medical issues' too... This book sounds wild lol.

I agree it's so underrated! But they got their critical recognition, & a high Douban score. I can see why the writer & dir team decided to adapt this book, as there are similar themes in this novel of: suspense, red herrings & puzzle-like plots, especially with the dynamics of the ML & FL & how they were in 'Heroes'😏.

I noticed it🌠🌠, it felt like that was the moment TM fomented his end game😥. His char was so grey right till the end. There were discussions on whether he loved MXL or FY, as she was part of his breakthrough, but they left it ambiguous.
I would've loved for TM & FY to reincarnate together as 2 innocent souls & to see TM finally get to live for himself & be free...

Ppl were joking they wanted to see a drama of TM/NXY's 'Love Curse.' Of him going through his 10,000 years of 'Love & Misery,' reincarnating as all those different ppl he said he became. Those people are cruel lol.
