I must confess that I am only watching bc I just want him to remember even though I know that he won't. The past life really got me hard but the present life I am much less moved... I mean he is a brilliant geeky professor who is loved by this stunning girl that everyone wants who doesn't even care about his money or anything... she just wants him bc she thinks he is this legendary general she loved thousands of years ago... Yeah he doesn't have everything in life but... so far so good...

Dunno how they will translate it but it should be about time standing still.

Ok well any editor that edits a real kiss into one that looks fake/perfunctory needs to get his ass fired.

Yups... poor ZSC, he is always alone in the world save for found family and of course his Shiyi. If I have to be honest though, if it weren't so much fun trying to figure out who reincarnated into who, I would be a bit bored.

Chemistry was great but the first kiss was definitely a big ass fake that can only pass kindergarten level. Now let's hope the second kiss meets grade 1... I am ok with baby steps... its in character for this virgin professor.

Uncle Lin is the best character in modern. I totally think he is Xie Chong!

It doesn't have to be either or.

It was never an official rule just internet speculation. He used to do them regularly when he was just started out. But around the time he got married he stopped doing them and the web gossip is that his wife doesn't like it. Maybe she is more secure now or maybe after so much fan criticism, the production teams are making part of his contract?

Baby steps... baby steps....😘🥰👄👄👄

We need an excuse, however flimsy to do research....😂

Yes close enough... I wouldn't go as far as to call it a good one but it pasts muster...

All are possibilities... we must do detailed research. Be sure to keep your fingers on your rewind button. Can also consider using the slow mo button.

Someone with double lips of course! 😜
My cousin who is a camera lens tech told me when they zoom in like that, its suspicious...

I think Zhang Zhehan and Zhang Ruoyun can pull it off really well as well. I have a real hard time picturing Zhu Yilong in historical hero roles for some reason.

Are we sure its not a lip double???

ikr.... I think it was just sour grapes bc she pretty much got fired...

Yes and BL's slightly crooked smile makes her distinct and memorable.

Bai Lu, Li Qin and Li Yitong all have the same "look". In terms of acting IMHO Bai Lu is the best of the lot but Li Qin is the most lovely.

Well you could try to read the book. I believe that to the extent not impacted by censorship, the drama and how it ends closely follows the novel. That includes Gu Fengén's part. It is just bad luck this was came out during HK protests so everything to do with overthrow and rebellion was extra sensitive and the ending got decimated. Audience feedback was also not good due to the excessive angst and so this was commercially a flop. Rightly or wrongly, the scriptwriter who is also the novelist was not re-hired when they re-shot and repackaged some of the remaining episodes into this special. They ended it the way she did in the book but she claims oh she would have made it happy. I just think whatever, too little too late.
I doubt the original episodes ever get released and certainly not anytime soon.

Both characters come across better here than they do in the book.
